Cell-specific and roasting-dependent regulation of the Keap1/Nrf2 pathway by coffee extracts
(2018)Coffee is a popular beverage that contains various bioactive compounds. However, its molecular mechanism of action is not fully elucidated. In this context, two previously characterized coffee extracts, a lightly roasted ... -
Dietary prenylated flavonoid xanthohumol alleviates oxidative damage and accelerates diabetic wound healing via Nrf2 activation
(2022)Diabetic skin ulcer is one of the most common complications in patients suffering diabetes mellitus. Xanthohumol (XN), a hop-derived prenylated dietary flavonoid, has multiple health beneficial bioactivities. In the present ... -
Extracts from the mediterranean food plants Carthamus lanatus, Cichorium intybus, and Cichorium spinosum enhanced GSH levels and increased Nrf2 expression in human endothelial cells
(2018)The Mediterranean diet is considered to prevent several diseases. In the present study, the antioxidant properties of six extracts from Mediterranean plant foods were assessed. The extracts' chemical composition analysis ... -
Genetic polymorphisms in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis: Evidence for implication in detoxification pathways of environmental toxicants
(2018)Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a severe neurodegenerative disease of the central nervous system, characterized by progressive loss of motor neurons, and occurring in both sporadic and familial form. The origin of ... -
Increase in antioxidant activity by sheep/goat whey protein through nuclear factor-like 2 (Nrf2) is cell type dependent
(2016)The aim of the present study was to investigate the molecular mechanisms through which sheep/goat whey protein exerts its antioxidant activity. Thus, it was examined whey protein's effects on the expression of transcription ... -
An integrated approach for assessing the in vitro and in vivo redox-related effects of nanomaterials
(2021)Over the last few decades, nanotechnology has risen to the forefront of both the research and industrial interest, resulting in the manufacture and utilization of various nanomaterials, as well as in their integration into ... -
Low-Grade Systemic Inflammation Interferes with Anabolic and Catabolic Characteristics of the Aged Human Skeletal Muscle
(2021)Aging is associated with the development of chronic low-grade systemic inflammation (LGSI) characterized by increased circulating levels of proinflammatory cytokines and acute phase proteins such as C-reactive protein ... -
Mistimed h2s upregulation, nrf2 activation and antioxidant proteins levels in renal tubular epithelial cells subjected to anoxia and reoxygenation
(2020)Ischemia-reperfusion (I-R) injury is involved in the pathogenesis of several human diseases. In the present study, the kinetics of the H2S producing enzymes-nuclear factor eryt hroid 2-like 2 (Nrf2)-antioxidant proteins ... -
Modulation of the ubiquitin-proteasome system by marine natural products
(2021)The ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS) is a key player in the maintenance of cellular protein homeostasis (proteostasis). Since proteasome function declines upon aging leading to the acceleration of its progression and the ... -
The polyphenolic composition of extracts derived from different Greek extra virgin olive oils is correlated with their antioxidant potency
(2019)Olive oil possesses a predominant role in the diet of countries around the Mediterranean basin, whereas it is a known constituent of several sectors of human culture. The polyphenolic composition of olive oil seems to be ... -
The putative interplay between DJ-1/NRF2 and Dimethyl Fumarate: A potentially important pharmacological target
(2018)Recent research has outlined that Dimethyl Fumarate (DMF) functions as a gene regulator via multiple pathways, critical among which is the NRF2 cytoprotective cascade. PARK7/DJ-1 is a multifunctional protein that acts as ... -
Reoxygenation induces reactive oxygen species production and ferroptosis in renal tubular epithelial cells by activating aryl hydrocarbon receptor
(2021)During the reperfusion phase of ischemia‑reper‑ fusion injury, reactive oxygen species (ROS) production aggravates the course of many diseases, including acute kidney injury. Among the various enzymes implicated in ROS ... -
Transcriptional regulatory networks of the proteasome in mammalian systems
(2022)The tight regulation of proteostasis is essential for physiological cellular function. Mammalian cells possess a network of mechanisms that ensure proteome integrity under normal or stress conditions. The proteasome, being ... -
UVB-mediated down-regulation of proteasome in cultured human primary pterygium fibroblasts
(2018)Background: Pterygium is a condition characterized by epithelial overgrowth of the cornea, inflammatory cell infiltration and an abnormal extracellular matrix accumulation. Chronic UV exposure is considered as a pathogenic ... -
We are what we eat: Ubiquitin–proteasome system (UPS) modulation through dietary products
(2020)During lifetime, the molecular mechanisms that are responsible for cellular defense against adverse conditions such as oxidative and heat stress tend to be less efficient, thus gradually leading to the natural phenomenon ...
