Reactive Oxygen Species in Metabolic and Inflammatory Signaling.

TL;DR: The role of ROS in the regulation metabolic/inflammatory diseases including atherosclerosis, diabetes mellitus, and stroke is highlighted and the balance ROS signaling plays in both physiology and pathophysiology is understood.

The Pharmacological Potential of Rutin.

TL;DR: The present review highlights current information and health-promoting effects of rutin and safety pharmacology issues and SAR of the same have also been discussed.

Stroke and the immune system: from pathophysiology to new therapeutic strategies

TL;DR: Development of novel and effective therapeutic strategies for stroke will require further investigation of pathways in the immune system and inflammatory responses in terms of their temporal profile (before, during, and after stroke) and risk-to-benefit therapeutic ratio of modulating them.

The role of extracellular histone in organ injury

TL;DR: Drugs that block the release of histone, neutralise circulating histone or block histone signal transduction provide significant protection from mortality in animal models of acute organ injury but warrant further research to inform future clinical applications.

Angiogenesis, neurogenesis and neuroplasticity in ischemic stroke.

TL;DR: These findings suggest that blood vessels play an important role as a scaffold for NPCs migration toward the damaged brain region, and the origin of newly formed vessels and the pathogenic role of neovascularization and neurogenesis are important unresolved issues in the understanding of the mechanisms after stroke.

Current Concepts of the Pathogenesis of the Acute Coronary Syndromes

TL;DR: Knowledge of the underlying mechanisms has increased substantially since this topic was last reviewed in these pages 6 years ago and the present article provides an update of this rapidly moving field.

Transcription Factor ATF2 Regulation by the JNK Signal Transduction Pathway

TL;DR: A role for the JNK signal transduction pathway in transcriptional responses mediated by ATF2 is demonstrated and mutations in this pathway inhibited ATF2-stimulated gene expression mediated by the retinoblastoma tumor suppressor and the adenovirus early region 1A (E1A) oncoprotein.

Apoptotic Mechanisms After Cerebral Ischemia

TL;DR: Accumulating evidence now indicates that apoptosis is prevalent in nonneuronal cells and that caspase-independent mechanisms also play a key role in the development of apoptosis in ischemic lesions.
