Vaccarin alleviates cisplatin-induced acute kidney injury via decreasing NOX4-derived ROS

46 views | Jan 08 2024

The study reveals that vaccarin exhibits a protective effect against cisplatin-induced acute kidney injury by mitigating oxidative stress, inhibiting cell death pathways, specifically necroptosis and apoptosis, and reducing inflammation, potentially mediated through the inhibition of NOX4.

APX-115, a pan-NADPH oxidase inhibitor, protects development of diabetic nephropathy in podocyte specific NOX5 transgenic mice

0 views | Oct 02 2023

APX-115, a pan-NOX inhibitor, shows potential as a promising therapeutic agent for the treatment of diabetic nephropathy by improving pancreatic beta cell function, reducing lipid levels, restoring kidney damage markers, and exerting anti-inflammatory effects. [Read the Full Post]

A small molecule G6PD inhibitor reveals immune dependence on pentose phosphate pathway

125 views | Sep 16 2023

The study developed a small molecule inhibitor, G6PDi-1, that effectively targets the glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) enzyme and modulates immune responses by depleting NADPH and inhibiting inflammatory cytokine production in T cells while suppressing respiratory burst in neutrophils.

Increased NOX2 expression in astrocytes leads to eNOS uncoupling through dihydrofolate reductase in endothelial cells after subarachnoid hemorrhage

119 views | Sep 13 2023

Increased NOX2 expression in astrocytes after subarachnoid hemorrhage leads to eNOS uncoupling, exacerbating acute vasoconstriction and cerebral ischemia. [Read the Full Post]

Involvement of a flavoprotein, acetohydroxyacid synthase, in growth and riboflavin production in riboflavin-overproducing Ashbya gossypii mutant

187 views | Aug 16 2023

This study demonstrates that branched-chain amino acids, particularly through the regulation of acetohydroxyacid synthase, play a crucial role in enhancing riboflavin production in the Ashbya gossypii mutant strain, offering a novel approach for optimizing riboflavin production in this organism.

Impact of setanaxib on quality of life outcomes in primary biliary cholangitis in a phase 2 randomized controlled trial

147 views | May 27 2023

The study suggests that setanaxib may improve quality of life in patients with PBC, particularly for those with clinically significant fatigue. [Read the Full Post]

APX-115, a pan-NADPH oxidase inhibitor, protects development of diabetic nephropathy in podocyte specific NOX5 transgenic mice

159 views | Dec 15 2022

Eun Soo Lee et al. suggested that APX-115 might be a promising therapeutic agent for the treatment of DN because of its pan-NOX inhibitory activity, including its NOX5 inhibitory activity, and also owing to its anti-inflammatory effect. [Read the Full Post]

Endothelial NOX4 aggravates eNOS uncoupling by decreasing dihydrofolate reductase after subarachnoid hemorrhage

150 views | Dec 01 2022

Sheng-Qing Gao et al. suggested that endothelial DHFR decreased significantly because of the elevated level of endothelial NOX4 leading to decreased cortical perfusion and worse neurological outcome. [Read the Full Post]
