M2 Polarization of Monocytes-Macrophages Is a Hallmark of Indian Post Kala-Azar Dermal Leishmaniasis.

PLoS Negl. Trop. Dis. 9 , e0004145, (2015)

The high level of functional diversity and plasticity in monocytes/macrophages has been defined within in vitro systems as M1 (classically activated), M2 (alternatively activated) and deactivated macrophages, of which the latter two subtypes are associated wi...

Knockdown of angiopoietin like-2 protects against angiotensin II-induced cerebral endothelial dysfunction in mice.

Am. J. Physiol. Heart Circ. Physiol. 308(5) , H386-97, (2015)

Angiopoietin like-2 (angptl2) is a circulating pro-inflammatory and pro-oxidative protein, but its role in regulating cerebral endothelial function remains unknown. We hypothesized that in mice knockdown (KD) of angptl2, cerebral endothelial function would be...

3,4-Dihydroxy-benzohydroxamic acid (Didox) suppresses pro-inflammatory profiles and oxidative stress in TLR4-activated RAW264.7 murine macrophages.

Chem. Biol. Interact. 233 , 95-105, (2015)

Didox (3,4-dihydroxy-benzohydroxamic acid), is a synthetic ribonucleotide reductase (RR) inhibitor derived from polyhydroxy-substituted benzohydroxamic acid, and originally developed as an anti-cancer agent. Some studies indicate that didox may have anti-oxid...

The effects of C-glycosylation of luteolin on its antioxidant, anti-Alzheimer's disease, anti-diabetic, and anti-inflammatory activities.

Arch. Pharm. Res. 37(10) , 1354-63, (2014)

To investigate the effect of C-glycosylation at different positions of luteolin, the structure-activity relationships of luteolin and a pair of isomeric C-glycosylated derivatives orientin and isoorientin, were evaluated. We investigated the effects of C-glyc...

Protein kinase D interacts with neuronal nitric oxide synthase and phosphorylates the activatory residue serine 1412.

PLoS ONE 9(4) , e95191, (2014)

Neuronal Nitric Oxide Synthase (nNOS) is the biosynthetic enzyme responsible for nitric oxide (·NO) production in muscles and in the nervous system. This constitutive enzyme, unlike its endothelial and inducible counterparts, presents an N-terminal PDZ domain...

Intermittent high glucose implements stress-induced senescence in human vascular endothelial cells: role of superoxide production by NADPH oxidase.

PLoS ONE 10(4) , e0123169, (2015)

Impaired glucose tolerance characterized by postprandial hyperglycemia, which occurs frequently in elderly persons and represents an important preliminary step in diabetes mellitus, poses an independent risk factor for the development of atherosclerosis. Endo...

NADPH oxidase-2 inhibition restores contractility and intracellular calcium handling and reduces arrhythmogenicity in dystrophic cardiomyopathy.

Am. J. Physiol. Heart Circ. Physiol. 307(5) , H710-21, (2014)

Duchenne muscular dystrophy may affect cardiac muscle, producing a dystrophic cardiomyopathy in humans and the mdx mouse. We tested the hypothesis that oxidative stress participates in disrupting calcium handling and contractility in the mdx mouse with establ...

Taurine supplementation reduces blood pressure and prevents endothelial dysfunction and oxidative stress in post-weaning protein-restricted rats.

PLoS ONE 9(8) , e105851, (2014)

Taurine is a sulfur-containing amino acid that exerts protective effects on vascular function and structure in several models of cardiovascular diseases through its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. Early protein malnutrition reprograms the cardio...

Methylmercury alters the activities of Hsp90 client proteins, prostaglandin E synthase/p23 (PGES/23) and nNOS.

PLoS ONE 9(5) , e98161, (2014)

Methylmercury (MeHg) is a persistent pollutant with known neurotoxic effects. We have previously shown that astrocytes accumulate MeHg and play a prominent role in mediating MeHg toxicity in the central nervous system (CNS) by altering glutamate signaling, ge...

Monocyte-derived dendritic cells from cirrhotic patients retain similar capacity for maturation/activation and antigen presentation as those from healthy subjects.

Cell. Immunol. 295 , 36-45, (2015)

Few studies have investigated the impact of liver cirrhosis on dendritic cell function. The purpose of this study was to compare the activation and antigen-presentation capacity of monocyte-derived dendritic cells (MoDC) from cirrhotic patients (CIR) relative...
