Antioxidant Activity of Fermented Soybean Extract by Chih-Chieh Hu (2708629)

“…The results demonstrate that the fermented soybean extract has strong antioxidant activity against unsaturated fatty acid peroxidation compared to vitamin C and Trolox. By the means of the test system developed by Y. Toshiki et al., it is shown that the fermented soybean extract can function both as an antioxidant and as a free radical acceptor that can convert free radicals into harmless substances through an energy-decreasing procedure. …”

EV71 infection induces neurodegeneration via activating TLR7 signaling and IL-6 production by Zhen Luo (281825)

“…However, the mechanisms underlying the regulation of TLR7-mediated brain pathogenesis upon EV71 infection remain largely elusive. Here we reveal a novel mechanism by which EV71 infects astrocytes in the brain and induces neural pathogenesis <i>via</i> TLR7 and interleukin-6 (IL-6) in C57BL/6 mice and in human astroglioma U251 cells. …”
