Abstract

Reactive oxygen species are important mediators that exert a toxic effect during ischemia-reperfusion injury of various organs. Sulforaphane, which is a naturally occurring isothiocyanate that is present in cruciferous vegetables such as broccoli, is known to be an indirect antioxidant that acts by inducing Nrf2-dependent phase 2 enzymes. Phase 2 enzymes such as heme oxygenase-1, NAD(P)H: quinone oxidoreductase 1, glutathione reductase, and glutathione peroxidase participate in adaptive and protective responses to oxidative stress and various inflammatory stimuli. Therefore, we evaluated the preactivation of Nrf2 by sulforaphane to determine if it could inhibit ischemia-reperfusion-induced kidney damage. Treatment of HK2 renal tubular epithelial cells with sulforaphane effectively protected cells against cytotoxicity induced by hypoxia-reoxygenation, and sulforaphane dramatically induced phase 2 enzymes by decreasing the Keap1 protein levels and increasing Nrf2 nuclear translocation. Additionally, a second set of experiments using a renal ischemia-reperfusion model produced results that were essentially the same as those observed when HK2 cells were used; namely, that sulforaphane induced Nrf2-dependent phase 2 enzymes and ther...Continue Reading

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.

Pluripotency refers to the ability of a cell to develop into three primary germ cell layers of the embryo. This feed focuses on the mechanisms that underlie the evolution of pluripotency. Here is the latest research.

Position Effect Variegation

Position Effect Variagation occurs when a gene is inactivated due to its positioning near heterochromatic regions within a chromosome. Discover the latest research on Position Effect Variagation here.

STING Receptor Agonists

Stimulator of IFN genes (STING) are a group of transmembrane proteins that are involved in the induction of type I interferon that is important in the innate immune response. The stimulation of STING has been an active area of research in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. Here is the latest research on STING receptor agonists.
