After challenge test, the pre-treatments with baicalin effectively alleviated H2O2-induced liver injury. Nazartinib mw In serum and liver, pre-treatments with 0.8 and/or 1.6 g/kg baicalin suppressed the oxidative damage induced by H2O2, as evidenced by improvement of the levels of SOD, T-AOC and GSH and the decline of MDA level. More important, pre-treatments with 0.4, 0.8 and/or 1.6 g/kg baicalin blocked the upregulation of mRNA levels of tlr1, myd88, irak4, rela, tnf-α and il-1β in H2O2-induced liver injury. In summary, dietary baicalin supplementation could improve feed efficiency, enhance antioxidative ability and alleviate oxidative stress-induced hepatotoxicity in tilapia.
This study aimed to determine the effects of an aquatic training program on functional capacity, perceptual aspects, and quality of life (QoL) performed by older adults with musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) and moderate/high risk of falls.
This randomized controlled trial included 120 older adults assigned to aquatic exercises (AG; n=60; 70.62±6.04years) and a control group (CG; n=60; 71.86±6.95years). The risk of falls, perceptual aspects (fall risk awareness and pain), functional capacity (lower and upper body strength, lower and upper body flexibility, functional mobility, and balance) and QoL were assessed at baseline and after the experimental protocol. The AG performed 16weeks of aquatic exercises (twice per week, 45min.session
) with lower and upper body strength, stretching, and balance exercises. Exercise intensity was controlled using the rate of perceived exertion (12-16 on the Borg scale [6-20 points]) and heart rate (progressing from 40% to 60% of the heart-rate reserve).
The training program improved the lower (mean difference [95% CI] 2.7 [2.0 to 3.3]) and upper body strength (3.5 [2.6 to 4.5]), lower (4.6 [3.4 to 5.8]) and upper body flexibility (6.5 [4.3 to 8.6]), functional mobility (-2.5 [-2.9 to -1.9]), and balance (11.2 [10.6 to 11.9]); reduced pain perception (-3.2 [-3.7 to -2.8]); increased the fall risk awareness (9.5 [8.8 to 10.1]) and QoL perception (5.6 to 22.6 [4.6 to 25.1]).
The water-based program may be used as a preventive approach for the older adults with MSDs and at risk of falling to improve physical and usual perceptual aspects (QoL and pain) and fall risk awareness.

In this study, two invertebrate Grxs (AbGrx1-like and AbGrx2) from disk abalone were identified and characterized in an effort to gain a deeper understanding into their immune and redox regulatory roles. Both AbGrxs share typical thioredoxin/Grx structures. AbGrx1-like and AbGrx2 were identified as monothiol and diothiol Grxs, respectively. AbGrxs were significantly expressed at the egg and 16-cell stage of early abalone development. Although the expression of both AbGrxs demonstrated similar patterns, the expression of AbGrx1-like was higher than AbGrx2 during development stages. In contrast, AbGrx2 expression was significantly higher than that of AbGrx1-like in adult tissues. Highest AbGrx1-like expression was observed in the hepatopancreas and digestive tract, while highest AbGrx2 expression was found in the gills, followed by the mantle, in healthy adult abalone tissues. The highest expression of AbGrx1-like was observed in the gills at 12 h and 6 h post injection (p.i) of Vibrio parahemolyticus and other stimulants, respectively. The highest expression of AbGrx2 in the gills were observed at 120 h, 6 h, 24 h, and 12 h post injection of V. parahaemolyticus, Listeria monocytogenes, Viral hemorrhagic septicemia virus, and Polyinosinicpolycytidylic acid, respectively. AbGrxs possessed significant 2-hydroxyethyl disulfide (HED) and dehydroascorbate (DHA) reduction activity, but AbGrx2 exhibited higher redox activity than AbGrx1-like. Altogether, our results suggest an important role of AbGrx1-like and AbGrx2 in redox homeostasis, as well as in the invertebrate immune defense system. Our findings will aid the development of new disease management strategies for this economically valuable species.The Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) rat was developed as a control for the spontaneous hypertensive rat but has subsequently also been used as a genetic animal model of depression due to its hyper-responsiveness to stress. We used anticipation of social reward (i.e., a play partner) to assess behavioural and vocal differences between the WKY and normal Wistar (WI) rats in the juvenile period. We found marked differences between groups; the WKY rats, were less active, vocalized less, and used significantly fewer types of 50-kHz calls in comparison to their WI counterparts. The animals were re-tested in adulthood and the same differences existed in overall activity, types of vocalizations and the behavioural vocal profiles used by the two groups of animals. These findings provide a robust baseline for an animal model of depression using a social paradigm. This paradigm may be useful to evaluate the efficacy of pharmaceutical interventions as potential treatments of depression in WKY rats.The use of endurance regimens could be improved by defining their respective effectiveness on aerobic fitness and brain health that remains controversial. We aimed at comparing work-matched high-intensity interval training (HIIT) with moderate-intensity continuous training (MICT) on aerobic performance and muscular plasticity markers in healthy rats. Cognitive functions and brain plasticity markers were also investigated following the 8-week training. Rats performed the incremental exercise test and behavioural tests before and after training at day 1 (D1), D15, D29 and D57. Key cerebral markers were assessed by Western blot and quantitative polymerase chain reaction to provide information on brain function related to angiogenesis, aerobic metabolism and neurotrophin activity at D59. Muscular protein levels involved in angiogenesis and aerobic metabolism were measured in both triceps brachii and soleus muscles. HIIT induced superior improvement of aerobic fitness compared to MICT, as indicated by enhancement of speed associated with lactate threshold (SLT) and maximal speed (Smax).
