Journal ArticleDOI

A new insight into resveratrol as an atheroprotective compound: inhibition of lipid peroxidation and enhancement of cholesterol efflux.

TL;DR: Resveratrol appears to be a natural antioxidant that enhances cholesterol efflux and is a potential natural antioxidants that could be used to prevent and treat CVD.
Journal ArticleDOI

Increased Stiffness in Aged Skeletal Muscle Impairs Muscle Progenitor Cell Proliferative Activity

TL;DR: Findings provide novel evidence that the low regenerative potential of aged skeletal muscle is independent of intrinsic MPC properties but is related to the increase in the stiffness of the MPC microenvironment.
Journal ArticleDOI

BMP-9-induced muscle heterotopic ossification requires changes to the skeletal muscle microenvironment

TL;DR: It is found that bone morphogenetic protein 9 had an osteoinductive influence on mouse muscle resident stromal cells by increasing their alkaline phosphatase activity and bone‐specific marker expression, and Interestingly, B MP‐9 induced HO only in damaged muscle, whereas BMP‐2 promoted HO in skeletal muscle regardless of its state.
Journal ArticleDOI

A novel hindlimb immobilization procedure for studying skeletal muscle atrophy and recovery in mouse.

TL;DR: A new immobilization procedure exploiting the normal flexion of the mouse hindlimb using a surgical staple to fix the ventral part of the foot to the distal part ofThe calf is provided, offering unexpected new insights into the molecular events involved in immobilization atrophy.
Journal ArticleDOI

MtbRegList, a database dedicated to the analysis of transcriptional regulation in Mycobacterium tuberculosis

TL;DR: MtbRegList is a database dedicated to the analysis of gene expression and regulation data in Mycobacterium tuberculosis designed to contain predicted and characterized regulatory DNA motifs cross-referenced with corresponding transcription factor(s), and experimentally identified transcription start sites.
