Studies ofcolitisin a non-human primates (cotton-top tamarin) implicate two coexisting factors as necessary for the initiation and progression ofinflammatory bowel disease(ulcerative colitis) in this model: environmental stress and largeintestinal microflora.156,157,207,208Colitis does not exist in cott...
Psychosocial stress is a critical inducing factor of inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD), while autophagy is a novel central issue of IBD development. The present study investigated the potential role of autophagy in stress-related IBD in patients and anim
The subject invention pertains to materials and methods for the prevention and treatment of disease conditions associated with oxidative stress or a compromised reducing environment, including inflammatory bowel diseases such as Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis. Another aspect of the subject invention...
Stress was characterized by Hans Selye, in 1936, as the “stereotyped biological response to any demand.” Corticotrophin-releasing factor (CRF) and its related peptides urocortins (Ucns 1,2,3) are the mediators of stress. They are present both in the central nervous system and in the ga...
The dosages and treatment duration are also outlined for each study. 4. Evaluating the Potential of Bioactive Supplements and Herbs as Antioxidative Agents in CKD Therapeutics In the context of CKD, oxidative stress and inflammation are pivotal players in the advancement of renal dysfunction. ...
The expression of these genes was unaffected by QNPs treatment. Interestingly, the expression levels of these genes returned to the normal range in the AgNPs + QNPs group, except for Hsp70, which decreased by two-fold and remained at higher levels than the control. Figure 3. Expression of ...
