Arsenic Induces Insulin Resistance in Mouse Adipocytes and Myotubes Via Oxidative Stress-Regulated Mitochondrial Sirt3-FOXO3a Signaling Pathway.

TL;DR: The results show that chronic arsenic exposure significantly decreased insulin-stimulated glucose uptake (ISGU) in correlation with reduced expression of insulin-regulated glucose transporter type 4 (Glut4) and suggest that Sirt3/FOXO3a/MnSOD signaling plays a significant role in the inhibition of ISGU induced by chronic arsenic Exposure.
Journal ArticleDOI

Human bronchial epithelial BEAS-2B cells, an appropriate in vitro model to study heavy metals induced carcinogenesis.

TL;DR: Activity and expression of 53 and its downstream target protein p21 upon acute or chronic exposure of BEAS-2B cells to arsenic and Cr(VI) are examined, demonstrating that p53 is able to respond to exposure of arsenic or Cr( VI), suggesting that BEas- 2B cells are an appropriate in vitro model to investigate arsenic orCr( VI) induced lung cancer.

Blackberry extract inhibits UVB-induced oxidative damage and inflammation through MAP kinases and NF-κB signaling pathways in SKH-1 mice skin.

TL;DR: Blackberry extract protects from UVB-induced oxidative damage and inflammation by modulating MAP kinase and NF-κB signaling pathways, and results show that BBE suppressedUVB- induced hyperplasia and reduced infiltration of inflammatory cells in the SKH-1 hairless mice skin.
