Background and Objective: Anti-inflammatory property of nobiletin (NOB) is proven and neuroinflammation is involved in triggering and progression of neurodegenerative disorder such as Parkinson's disease (PD). PD is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by motor and non-motor features including psychiatric symptoms such as depression and anxiety. The purpose of this study to investigate wh...

cytotoxic effects of obturation materials were tested in presence and absence of endotoxin on human monocytes in vitro.human monocytes from thp-1 cell line were cultured. three millimeters from the tip of each resilon and gutta percha points were cut and directly placed at the bottom of the culture wells. cultured cells were exposed to gutta percha (groups g1 and g2) and resilon (r1 and r2). te...

Objective(s): Aberrant expression of CCL5 has been found in several kinds of inflammatory diseases, and the roles of CCL5 in these diseases have also been reported. However, the role of CCL5 in infantile pneumonia is still unclear. Thus, the function and acting mechanism of CCL5 in the in vitro model of infantile pneumonia were researched in this study. Materials and Methods: Human fetal lung f...

Objective(s): Eupafolin, a major active component of Eupatorium perfoliatum L., has anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant properties. Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) is responsible for myocardial depression. A line of evidences revealed that LPS induces autophagy in cardiomyocytes injury. This study aims to evaluate the effects of eupafolin on LPS-induced cardiomyocyte autophagy...

Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) was used to induce neuroinflammation in rats and the expression of brain cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) is marker for process [1]. The effect minocycline on neuroinflammation-induced LPS not clearly elucidated.
 
 objective this study determine effects (MIN) LPS-induced COX-2 compared it with a clinically approved drug Alzheimer’s disease named memantine. A total fi...

objective(s): abnormal lung cell death including autophagy and apoptosis is the central feature in acute lung injury (ali). to identify the cellular mechanisms and the chronology by which different types of lung cell death are activated during lipopolysaccharide (lps)-induced ali, we decided to evaluate autophagy (by lc3-ii and autophagosome) and apoptosis (by caspase-3) at different time point...

Preconditioning (PC) as a protective strategy against noxious insults can decline cell death and apoptosis. It has been approved that mitochondria play a key role in PC mechanism. The critical role of complex I (CI) in oxidative phosphorylation machinery and intracellular ROS production, particularly in the brain, accentuates its possible role in PC-induced neuroprotection. Here, differentiated...

Background: Myocardial dysfunction is one of the major complications in patients with sepsis where there is a relationship between the blood level of cytokines and the onset of myocardial depression. In many cases of sepsis, the presence of Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) has been established. LPS Binding Protein (LBP) bound endotoxin is recognized by CD14/toll-like receptor-4 (TLR4) complexes in inna...
