Influences of Glabridin Treatment on Motor Function Recovery after Spinal Cord Injury

Int. j. morphol; 42 (3), 2024
SUMMARY: Spinal cord injury (SCI) usually arises from compression due to traffic accidents and falls, resulting in varying degrees of movement, sensory loss, and possible paralysis. Glabridin (Gla) is a natural compound derived from licorice. It significantly affects drug development and medicine because...

Investigating Morphological Changes of the Hippocampus After Prolonged Aerobic Exercise in Mice: Neural Function and Learning Capabilities

Int. j. morphol; 42 (3), 2024
SUMMARY: Both the academic and popular worlds have paid close attention to the link between exercise and cognitive performance. It is increasingly important to understand the numerous mechanisms by which exercise might influence cognitive abilities in view of the continuous societal issues caused by agin...

Resveratrol Alleviates Osteoporosis by Promoting Osteogenic Differentiation of Bone Marrow Mesenchymal Stem Cells via SITR1/PI3K/AKT Pathway

Int. j. morphol; 42 (1), 2024
SUMMARY: Senile osteoporosis is mainly caused by reduced osteoblast differentiation and has become the leading cause of fractures in the elderly worldwide. Natural organics are emerging as a potential option for the prevention and treatment of osteoporosis. This study was designed to study the effect of ...

Small Molecules Accelerate Skin Wound Healing: Shikonin Efficacy and Mechanism of Action in Mice

Int. j. morphol; 42 (1), 2024
SUMMARY: The objective of this study was to investigate the therapeutic wound healing potential and molecular mechanisms of shikonin as small molecules in vitro. A mouse burn model was used to explore the potential therapeutic effect of shikonin; we traced proliferating cells in vivo to locate the active...

High fat diet- induced obesity decreases ErbB receptors expression in liver and adipose tissue in C57BL/6 mice

Rev. chil. nutr; 51 (1), 2024
Neuregulins (NRGs) are a family of signaling proteins that bind to receptor tyrosine kinases of the ErbB family (ErbB2 to ErbB4), which can homo- or heterodimerize depending on their structural features and cell type. Many studies have proposed that decreased NRG levels are a common characteristic of obe...

Efeitos do exercício e inosina após lesão e reparo do nervo isquiático de camundongos
Effects of exercise and inosine after lesion and repair of the sciatic nerve in mice

As Lesões do Nervo Periférico (LNP) representam uma significativa fonte global de incapacidade, manifestando-se através de comprometimento sensório-motor que resulta em impactos negativos na funcionalidade e, frequentemente, leva ao afastamento das atividades laborais. Essas lesões podem ter origem ...

Inosina promove a regeneração e recuperação funcional após lesão por transecção e reparo de nervo isquiático com tubo de poli ácido lático
Inosine promotes regeneration and functional recovery after sciatic nerve transection and repair using poly-lactic acid conduit in mice

Lesões traumáticas em nervos periféricos resultam em perda parcial ou total das funções motora e sensitiva, causando consequências biopsicossociais e laborais. Após a lesão, uma série de eventos complexos iniciam-se tanto no coto proximal quanto no coto distal, a fim de possibilitar que os axôn...

La suplementación con fructosa aumenta la expresión de factores lipogénicos y la esteatosis hepática inducida por una dieta alta en grasa

La enfermedad de hígado graso no alcohólico (EHGNA) abarca desde una acumulación simple de lípidos neutros, triacilglicéridos (TAG) y colesterol en más del 5% de los hepatocitos, hasta una forma más avanzada llamada esteatohepatitis no alcohólica (EHNA), la que incluye inflamación lobular, balon...

Enzima convertidora de angiotensina homóloga (ECA2) y actividad de ROCK en la falla cardíaca experimental

Rev. chil. cardiol; 42 (3), 2023
Antecedentes: La ECA2 ha mostrado ser un regulador esencial de la funcionalidad cardíaca. En un modelo experimental de insuficiencia cardíaca (IC) con Fier, modelo de coartación de aorta (COA), se encontró activación de la vía Rho-kinasa. La inhibición de esta vía con fasudil no mejoró el remode...

High-intensity interval training (treadmill) effects in myokines and endoplasmic reticulum stress of calf muscles in obese mice

Int. j. morphol; 41 (2), 2023
SUMMARY: Obesity is commonly associated with chronic tissue inflammation and skeletal muscle dysfunction. The study aimed to investigate the effects of High-Intensity Interval training (HIIT) on myokines and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress of diet- induced obese (DIO) mice. Three-month-old C57BL/6 male...
