Glycine improves peritoneal vasoreactivity to dialysis solutions in the elderly by Zakaria, El Rasheid

“…Background: Peritoneal dialysis solution (PDS) dilates peritoneal microvessels predominantly by the activation of the endothelial nitric oxide (NO) pathway. We made an incidental observation of decreased PDS-induced, NO-dependent peritoneal microvascular vasoreactivity in elderly rats nave to PDS exposure. …”

Phytochemicals as Micronutrients: What Is their Therapeutic Promise in the Management of Traumatic Brain Injury? by Al-Haj, Nadine

“…In this regards, phytochemicals have been acknowledged to cause a significant decrease in neuronal injury through different mechanisms including the activation of the Nrf2 transcription factor leading to activation of several antioxidant enzyme systems such as superoxide dismutase, inhibition of NADPH oxidases (NOX) enzymes, suppression of nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) activity and reduction of the release of inflammatory mediators, suppression of the NLRP3 inflammasome, stimulation of neurogenesis by activating neurotrophic factors (BDNF), among others. …”
