This study aimed to examine the effects of genistein and daidzein on endometrial receptivity by histopathological, immunohistochemical, and biochemical techniques.
In this study, 72 female Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into 8 groups. The endometrial receptivity model was applied to identified groups. Experimental animals were given periorally 10 mg/kg and high 40 mg/kg doses of genistein and daidzein for 5 days by gavage. At the end of the experiment, uterine tissues were evaluated histopathologically, immunohistochemically, and biochemically.
When histopathological findings were examined, significant decreases in pinopod formation were observed in high dose genistein and daidzein groups. IU1 DUB inhibitor When compared with the endometrial receptivity group, immunohistochemical staining findings showed a significant decrease in the expression of integrin β3, integrin αvβ3, LIF, and HOXA10 and an increase in MUC 1 expression in the high dose of genistein and daidzein groups. In biochemical evaluations, it was determined that genistein and daidzein increased estrogen levels and decreased progesterone levels in a dose-dependent manner.
Genistein and daidzein have a negative effect on endometrial receptivity. IU1 DUB inhibitor Therefore, individuals with a risk of infertility should pay attention to the consumption of genistein and daidzein.

N-acetylcysteine (NAC) has gained attention recently in dermatology as a unique anti-oxidant. IU1 DUB inhibitor In light of progress in nanotechnological methods, it was hypothesized that loading NAC onto nanofibers would positively affect skin wound healing. The objective of this study was to fabricate NAC-loaded electrospun mats and test their effect on wound healing
and
.
Polyvinyl alcohol (PVA)-based mats loaded with NAC at three concentrations were electrospun and characterized in terms of physicochemical properties and drug release profile. Human fibroblast cells (
) and mouse full-thickness skin wounds (
) were treated with mats for 5 and 14 days, respectively. Wound area, tissue histopathology, fibroblast proliferation and cellular oxidative state were evaluated.
Mats containing 5% PVA/NAC showed thinner fibers with suitable physicochemical properties and a sustained drug release profile. PVA/NAC (5%) mats enhanced fibroblast proliferation and attachment
. link2 The mats resulted in significant wound closure with high levels of re-epithelialization and collagen fiber synthesis on day 14 post-surgery
The mats also reduced granulation tissue and edematous stroma to a higher extent. These findings were accompanied by a significant decrease in tissue lipid peroxidation and higher superoxide dismutase activity, which may explain how NAC improved wound healing.
We propose an NAC-loaded nanofibrous mat that takes the advantage of a porous nanoscaffold structure to release NAC in a sustained manner. This mat may be a promising candidate for further clinical evaluation.

The modulatory effect of deep inspiration (DI) on airway constriction is impaired in asthma. However, mechanisms underlying this impairment are not clear. Since there is evidence indicating that Rho-kinase activation mediates force maintenance under oscillatory strain, we investigated the impact of Rho-kinase inhibition on the bronchodilatory effect of DI in ovalbumin (OVA) sensitized guinea pigs.
forty-eight male Dunkin Hartley guinea pigs were divided into 8 groups including saline/ constant, saline/DI, OVA/constant, OVA/DI, Rho-I/OVA/constant, Rho-I/OVA/DI, OVA-Rho-I/MCh/constant, and OVA-Rho-I/MCh/DI. link2 Animals were subjected to 12 inhalations of OVA or saline aerosol. Guinea pigs in Rho-I/OVA/constant or DI groups were treated with the Rho-kinase inhibitor (Rho-I) (Y-27632, 1 mM aerosols) prior to the last 8 allergen inhalations and OVA-Rho-I/MCh/constant or DI groups received Y-27632 at the end of allergen sensitization protocol before methacholine challenge. The bronchodilatory effect of DI in guinea pigs that were exposed to methacholine was assessed by using an animal ventilator. link3 The bronchodilatory effect was assessed using several parameters the airway pressure maintenance, airway pressure recovery, and decline of airway pressure.
Results indicated that application of Y-27632 prior to methacholine challenge reduces the airway smooth muscle ability to maintain pressure and also causes further decline in airway pressure in OVA-sensitized animals undergone DI. However, the inhibition of Rho-kinase before OVA inhalations had minimal effect.
We propose that alteration of Rho-kinase signaling pathway may be one of the mechanisms underlying the impairment of DI-induced bronchodilation in OVA-sensitized guinea pigs.

The human apolipoprotein E4 (APOE4) is associated with various brain injuries and neurodegenerative changes. Curcumin is an active ingredient isolated from the root of turmeric and is believed to have therapeutic effects on neurodegenerative diseases. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of curcumin on APOE4-induced neurological damage and explore its molecular mechanisms.
SH-SY5Y cells were pretreated with curcumin for 24 hr and transfected with human APOE4 gene using Lipofectamine 2000. Then, the effect of curcumin on the transfected cells was detected by ELISA, immunofluorescence staining and Western blot.
The production or expression of proinflammatory cytokines and proteins, including tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-1β (IL-1β), nitric oxide (NO), inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) was significantly increased in SH-SY5Y cells transfected with APOE4, and curcumin inhibited APOE4-induced cellular inflammatory damage. link3 link3 Western blot analysis sy.
Evidence shows that sleep deprivation (SD) disrupts the formation of hippocampus-related memories. Moreover, α2 adrenergic receptors that are wildly expressed in the CA1 hippocampal region have a significant role in modulating both sleep and memory formation. In the present research, we wanted to investigate the effect of stimulation and blockage of CA1 α2 adrenergic receptors by clonidine (an agonist of α2 adrenergic receptor) and yohimbine (an antagonist of α2 adrenergic receptor), respectively, on memory retention impairment induced by REM SD (RSD) in rats.
Multiple platform apparatus were used to induce RSD, and the passive avoidance task was used to assess memory consolidation. Clonidine and yohimbine were injected intra-CA1.
The results showed that RSD (for 24 and 36, but not 12 hr) decreased memory retention, with no effect on locomotion. Post-training intra-CA1 infusion of a subthreshold dose of yohimbine (0.001 μg/rat) did not alter, while clonidine (0.1 μg/rat) restored memory retention impairment induced by RSD (24 and 36 hr). Also, none of the interventions did not influence locomotor activity.
Our data strongly showed that CA1 α2 adrenergic receptors have a critical role in RSD-induced memory retention impairment.

is an Iranian medicinal plant. Tschimgine and stylosin are two of its major monoterpene derivatives. In this study, we proceeded to investigate some fungal endophytes from
that can produce plant secondary metabolites.
The isolated endophytic fungi were fermented in potato dextrose broth (PDB) medium and their extracts were screened for the presence of the plant compounds by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS). Endophytes identification was performed by morphological and molecular methods. Three markers (ITS, LSU, and TEF1) were used for accurate molecular identification.
Forty isolates from 9 different genera of endophytic fungi were identified, of which two recently reported species of
and
were able to produce tschimgine and stylosin.
These fungi can be used as a substitute for the production of plant's medicinal compounds independent of wild populations of the source plant.

This research was carried out to investigate the hypoglycemic activity of the ethyl acetate (EtOAc) extract from the roots of
Roxb, which strongly exhibit inhibitory activity against α-glucosidase and α-amylase on
type 2 diabetic model.
Column chromatography combined with crystallization was used to isolate the active fraction and compounds. Chemical structures of the compounds were determined based on the analysis of the spectroscopic data and comparison with the literature data. The α-glucosidase inhibitory activity (AGI) and the α-amylase inhibitory activity (AAI) were determined quantitatively spectrophotometrically using p-nitrophenyl α-D-glucopyranoside and soluble starch as substrates, respectively. The hypoglycemic activity was examined by evaluating its effects on glucose and insulin levels, insulin resistance, and histopathology of the pancreatic islets and livers in diabetic induced mice administrated with nicotinamide-streptozotocin.
The EtOAc extract and the bioactive compounds astilbin and 5-O-caffeoylshikimic acid in the extract were isolated and confirmed in structures, AGI, and AAI. The treatment at the doses of 500 and 1000 µg/kg of body weight reduced blood glucose levels down to the physiological level of the physical controls in the diabetic mice after two weeks (
<0.05). Moreover, the treatment improved insulin sensitivity. Histopathology analysis showed recovering effects in the size of the pancreatic islets and no damaging effects on the liver after treatment compared with the control group.
Our data suggest that the EtOAc extract possesses hypoglycemic activity and has an antidiabetic potential for therapeutic applications.
