Screening 20-hete inhibitors in microsomal incubatesusing uplc-ms/ms

Chenxiao Tang
TL;DR: It is suggested that compounds 10, 19 and 26 are potent 20-HETE formation inhibitors, compounds 10 and 19 have improved microsomal stability, and these three compounds can serve as lead compounds for further structure modifications that may lead to novel 20- HETE Formation inhibitors.

The study of hyponatremia in the prognosis of acute ischemic stroke

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that hyponatremia at admission in acute ischemic stroke patients is associated with acute mortality, worse NIHSS score at admission and at discharge, and longer duration of ICU and hospital stay.

Mandana Amini
TL;DR: The present work presents a meta-analysis of calpain function in the central nervous system (CNS) of Parkinson’s disease (PD) and its role in cell death pathways in PD.

Role of Alberta Stroke Program Early CT-scan (ASPECT) Score On Acute Ischemic Stroke

TL;DR: CT-scan assessment using this ASPECTS has good interpretation in common among neurologists, radiology trainees and neuroradiology specialist, and can be used to determine the severity of stroke indirectly based on the area of ​​ischemic lesions found on CT-scan images.

Direct Proinflammatory Effect of C-Reactive Protein on Human Endothelial Cells

TL;DR: The hypothesis that CRP may play a direct role in promoting the inflammatory component of atherosclerosis and present a potential target for the treatment of Atherosclerosis is supported.

p53 Has a Direct Apoptogenic Role at the Mitochondria

TL;DR: Evidence that p53 translocation to the mitochondria occurs in vivo in irradiated thymocytes is provided and it is shown that the p53 protein can directly induce permeabilization of the outer mitochondrial membrane by forming complexes with the protective BclXL and Bcl2 proteins, resulting in cytochrome c release.

Glutamate-mediated astrocyte-neuron signalling.

TL;DR: Astrocytes regulate neuronal calcium levels through the calcium-dependent release of glutamate, and an NMDA (N-methyl-d-aspartate) receptor-mediated increase in neuronal calcium is demonstrated.
