Introduction: Reactive oxygen species (ROS) have been suggested to play an important role in the myocardial damage induced by ischemia – reperfusion. One element believed to be activated by ROS and to contribute to the reduction of ROS production, is the uncoupling protein-2 (UCP2). The objective of this investigation was to explore the effect of myocardial ischemia reperfusion on cardiac UC...

Renal ischemia–reperfusion (IR) is inevitable in partial nephrectomy and kidney transplantation. Acute tubular necrosis (ATN) induced by renal IR causes the loss of functional units kidney, pathologically presenting as nonhomogeneous distribution normal uriniferous tubules usually used to characterize activity. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) has been proven have ability image microstructure...

Introduction: Nucleobinding-2 (NUCB2) or nesfatin-1, a newly identified anorexigenic peptide, has antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-apoptotic properties. Brain ischemia-reperfusion induces irreversible damages, especially in the hippocampus area. However, the therapeutic effects of NUCB2 have not been well investigated in cerebral ischemia. This study was designed for the first time to i...

renal ischemia-reperfusion (ir) injury is a common problem in kidney transplantation. there is increasing evidence about the role of the reactive oxygen species (ros) in these injuries and endogenous antioxidants seem to have an important role in decreasing the renal tissue injury. the aim of this study was to investigate the effects of kidney ir on renal antioxidant enzymes activity such as ca...

background: it is well known that the hippocampus, the ca1 pyramidal cells in particular, is selectively vulnerable during global cerebral ischemia. recently, it is observed that pentoxifylline has a neuroprotective effect. this study explored the pharmacological relationship between ischemia-induced cell death of the hippocampus and the efficacy of a vasodilator agent (pentoxifylline) in the p...

objective: oxygen free radicals may be implicated in the pathogenesis of ischemia reperfusion damage. the beneficial effects of antioxidant nutrients, as well as complex plant extracts, on cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injuries are well known. this study was conducted to determine the effects of the hydro-alcoholic root extract of withania coagulans on ca1 hippocampus oxidative damages followin...

renal ischemia-reperfusion (ir) contributes to the development of acute renal failure (arf). oxygen free radicals are considered to be principal components involved in the pathophysiological tissue alterations observed during renal ir. the purpose of this study was to investigate the combination effect of melatonin (mel) and erythropoietin (epo), which are a potent antioxidant and anti-apoptoti...

objective(s) the aim of this study was to investigate the overall effect of cardiac vasoactive factors during coronary occlusion and reperfusion on peripheral vascular tone, using a sequential isolated rabbit heart-ear perfusion model. materials and methods isolated ears were perfused with the effluent of isolated hearts subjected to ischemia (30 min) and reperfusion (180 min, n=6). the compara...

Abstract: Background: Neuroprotection is one of considerable interest in search novel therapies to improve ischemic brain damage the present scenario. The objective investigation study actions Talinum triangulare cerebral ischemia/reperfusion induced oxidative stress Wistar rats and in-vitro antioxidant actions. Methods: Four different groups adult are selected for where group III IV treated 15...
