Journal ArticleDOI
Quantification of the overall reactive oxygen species scavenging capacity of biological fluids and tissues.
TL;DR: It was hypothesized and then demonstrated that an evaluation of the overall reducing power of a biological sample correlates with the overall scavenging activity of the sample, and in order to quantify the total reducing power, the cyclic voltammetry methodology was applied.
Journal ArticleDOI
Influence of cytokines and growth factors in ANG II-mediated collagen upregulation by fibroblasts in rats: role of myocytes.
TL;DR: It is shown that cardiomyocytes induce secretion of active TGF-beta in the presence of ANG II and that a paracrine action of TGF -beta subsequently induces different cytokines (IL-6) in fibroblasts, thereby promoting collagen synthesis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Rapid synthesis of biocompatible silver nanoparticles using aqueous extract of Rosa damascena petals and evaluation of their anticancer activity
TL;DR: The results of the present study suggest that G-SNPs can be synthesized rapidly within first minute of the reaction; they are biocompatible and possess anticancer activity against human lung adenocarcinoma.
Journal ArticleDOI
Involvement of the NF-κB/Matrix Metalloproteinase Pathway in Cardiac Fibrosis of Mice Lacking Guanylyl Cyclase/Natriuretic Peptide Receptor A
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that disruption of NPRA/cGMP signaling promotes hypertrophic growth and extracellular matrix remodeling, leading to the development of cardiac hypertrophy, myocardial fibrosis, and congestive heart failure.
Journal ArticleDOI
Natriuretic peptide receptor A mediates renal sodium excretory responses to blood volume expansion
Shang Jin Shi,Elangovan Vellaichamy,So Yeon Chin,Oliver Smithies,L. Gabriel Navar,Kailash N. Pandey +5 more
TL;DR: It is established that NPRA activation is the predominant mechanism mediating the natriuretic, diureic, and renal hemodynamic responses to acute blood volume expansion.
