Journal ArticleDOI
Red Wine Polyphenols Enhance Endothelial Nitric Oxide Synthase Expression and Subsequent Nitric Oxide Release From Endothelial Cells
Jürgen F Leikert,Thomas R Räthel,Paulus Wohlfart,Véronique Cheynier,Angelika M. Vollmar,Verena M. Dirsch +5 more
TL;DR: Increased active eNOS levels may antagonize the development of endothelial dysfunction and atherosclerosis, a hypothesis that supports the view that red wine indeed may have long-term protective cardiovascular properties mediated by its polyphenols.
Journal ArticleDOI
Photoswitchable Inhibitors of Microtubule Dynamics Optically Control Mitosis and Cell Death
Malgorzata Borowiak,Malgorzata Borowiak,Wallis Nahaboo,Martin Reynders,Katharina Nekolla,Pierre Jalinot,Jens Hasserodt,Markus Rehberg,Marie Delattre,Stefan Zahler,Angelika M. Vollmar,Dirk Trauner,Oliver Thorn-Seshold,Oliver Thorn-Seshold +13 more
TL;DR: The photostatins are introduced, inhibitors that can be switched on and off in vivo by visible light, to optically control microtubule dynamics and are promising as a new class of precision chemotherapeutics whose toxicity may be spatiotemporally constrained using light.
Journal ArticleDOI
Anti-inflammatory effects of a bioavailable compound, Artepillin C, in Brazilian propolis
Niraldo Paulino,Sheila Rago Lemos Abreu,Yoshihiro Uto,Daisuke Koyama,Hideko Nagasawa,Hitoshi Hori,Verena M. Dirsch,Angelika M. Vollmar,Amarilis Scremin,Walter A. Bretz +9 more
TL;DR: Collectively, Artepillin C showed anti-inflammatory effects mediated, at least in part, by prostaglandin E(2) and nitric oxide inhibition through NF-kappaB modulation, and exhibited bioavailability by oral administration.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ajoene, a Compound of Garlic, Induces Apoptosis in Human Promyeloleukemic Cells, Accompanied by Generation of Reactive Oxygen Species and Activation of Nuclear Factor kappaB
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that ajoene, a major compound of garlic induces apoptosis in human leukemic cells, but not in peripheral mononuclear blood cells of healthy donors, a novel aspect in the biological profile of this garlic compound.
Journal ArticleDOI
Inhibition of p38 MAPK activation via induction of MKP-1: atrial natriuretic peptide reduces TNF-alpha-induced actin polymerization and endothelial permeability.
Alexandra K. Kiemer,Nina C. Weber,Robert Fürst,Nicole Bildner,Stefanie Kulhanek-Heinze,Angelika M. Vollmar +5 more
TL;DR: The inhibitory action of ANP on TNF-&agr;–induced changes in endothelial cytoskeleton and macromolecule permeability involving an MKP-1–induced inactivation of p38 MAPK points to an antiinflammatory and antiatherogenic potential of this cardiovascular hormone.
