Antenatal Corticosteroids Impact the Inflammatory Rather Than the Antiangiogenic Profile of Women With Preeclampsia
Unzila A. Nayeri,Irina A. Buhimschi,Irina A. Buhimschi,Christine Laky,Sarah N. Cross,Christina M. Duzyj,Wenda Ramma,Bahaeddine M Sibai,Edmund F. Funai,Asif Ahmed,Catalin S. Buhimschi,Catalin S. Buhimschi +11 more
TL;DR: Testing the hypothesis that steroids modify the balance of inflammatory and proangiogenic and antiangIogenic factors in women found it unlikely that inflammation is the major contributor to severe preeclampsia or useful for therapeutic targeting.
Journal ArticleDOI
Identification of novel serotonin 2C receptor ligands by sequential virtual screening
TL;DR: Two step pharmacophore and docking based virtual screening was done using 5-HT(2C) agonists and best hit from this virtual screening showed IC(50) of 20.1 nM.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hydrogen sulfide: a novel mechanism for the vascular protection by resveratrol under oxidative stress in mouse aorta
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that oxidative stress impairs endogenous H2S-induced relaxations and RVT offers protection by inducing H2Dysfunctions suggesting that targeting endogenous H 2S pathway may prevent vascular dysfunctions associated by oxidative stress.
Journal ArticleDOI
Carbon monoxide inhibits inward rectifier potassium channels in cardiomyocytes
TL;DR: It is reported that CO prolongs action potential duration (APD) by inhibiting a subset of inward-rectifying potassium (Kir) channels in cardiomyocytes and HEK-293 cells transfected with Kir, and are promising targets for the prevention of reperfusion-induced VF.
Journal ArticleDOI
In Vivo Hemin Conditioning Targets the Vascular and Immunologic Compartments and Restrains Prostate Tumor Development

TL;DR: Tumors from hemin-conditioned mice showed reduced expression of galectin-1 (Gal-1), key modulator of tumor angiogenesis and immunity, evidencing persistent remodeling of the microenvironment, highlighting a novel function of a human-used drug as a means of boosting the antitumor response.
