Finally, imipramine in combination with thapsigargin, but not tunicamycin, aggravates ER stress-induced mitochondrial dysfunction without significant impact on intracellular mitochondrial content as indicated by the unaltered expression of Hsp60. Our results indicate the possibility that chronic treatment with imipramine might be associated with a higher risk of development and progression of neurodegenerative disorders, in particular those allied with ER stress and mitochondrial dysfunction like Parkinson's and Alzheimer's disease.Polycystic ovary syndrome is a common endocrine disorder worldwide. Recently, quercetin has been extensively investigated as a therapeutic option in patients with PCOS. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the mechanisms underlying quercetin's positive effects by modulating key components of energy homeostasis and adipose tissue hormones in rats with letrozole-induced PCOS. Eighteen female Wistar rats were divided into three groups including control group (received carboxy methylcellulose (CMC 0.5%)), letrozole-induced PCOS ± quercetin group (received 1 mg/kg letrozole in CMC 0.5%), and letrozole-induced PCOS +/+ quercetin group (received same dose of letrozole + 100 mg/kg quercetin in CMC 0.5%). The estrous cycle, biochemical and hormonal parameters, as well as insulin resistance (IR) were evaluated in all groups. Western blotting was used to assess the expression levels of sirtuin-1 (SIRT-1), 5' AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), and adiponectin in target tissues of rats. The expression levels of visfatin and resistin were also evaluated through Real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Treatment with quercetin improved the PCOS related disturbances in estrous cycle, lipid profile, serum levels of testosterone, estradiol and progesterone, and IR. https://www.selleckchem.com/products/d-4476.html Besides, the expression levels of AMPK and SIRT-1 in ovarian tissue were upregulated in the rats which received quercetin. Quercetin also reversed the PCOS-induced alteration in adipose tissue levels of adiponectin, visfatin, and resistin. Modulation of energy homeostasis through key components involved in this axis, as well as regulation of hormones releasing from adipose tissue may be the main underlying mechanisms for positive effects of quercetin in PCOS.Phthalates as plasticizers are widely used in many consumer products. Dipentyl phthalate (DPeP) is one of phthalates. However, there are currently few data on whether DPeP exposure affects rat Leydig cell development. In this study, we investigated the effects of in utero DPeP exposure on Leydig cell development in the testes of male newborn and adult rats. From gestational days 14 to 21, Sprague-Dawley pregnant rats were gavaged vehicle (corn oil, control) or DPeP (10, 50, 100, and 500 mg/kg body weight/day). Testosterone and the expression of Leydig cell genes and proteins in the testis at birth and at postnatal day 56 were examined. DPeP dose-dependently reduced serum testosterone levels of male offspring at birth and at postnatal day 56 at 100 and 500 mg/kg and lowered serum luteinizing hormone levels at adult males at ≥10 mg/kg when compared with the control. In addition, DPeP increased number of fetal Leydig cells by inducing their proliferation but down-regulated the expression of Lhcgr, Scarb1, Star, Cyp11a1, Hsd3b1, Cyp17a1, Hsd17b3, and Insl3 in fetal Leydig cells per se. DPeP reduced number of adult Leydig cells by inducing cell apoptosis and down-regulated the expression of Lhcgr and Star in adult Leydig cells at postnatal day 56. DPeP lowered SIRT1 and BCL2 levels in the testis of adult rats. In conclusion, DPeP adversely affects both fetal and adult Leydig cell development after in utero exposure.Nabumetone (NB) is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), prescribed for managing pain associated with acute/chronic rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis and other musculoskeletal disorders. Though some incidences of photosensitivity have been reported, there is limited information available on its phototoxicity potential. In this study, NB photodegraded in a time-dependant manner (0-4 h) under UVA (1.5 mW/cm2), UVB (0.6 mW/cm2) and natural sunlight as observed through UV-vis spectrophotometer and the results were further confirmed with Ultra High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (UHPLC). Photosensitized NB generated reactive oxygen species (ROS) as observed by lipid peroxidation, suggesting oxidative degradation of lipids in cell membrane, thereby resulting in cell damage. MTT and NRU (neutral red uptake) assays revealed that NB induced phototoxicity in concentration-dependent manner (0.5, 1, 5, 10 μg/ml) under UVA, UVB and sunlight exposure (30 min) in human keratinocytes cell line (HaCaT), with significant phototoxicity at the concentration of 5 μg/ml. Photosensitized NB generated intracellular ROS, disrupted mitochondrial and lysosomal membrane integrity, resulting in cell death. UV-induced genotoxicity by NB was confirmed through micronuclei generation, γ-H2AX induction and cyclobutane pyrimidine dimer formation. This is the first study which showed the phototoxicity and photogenotoxicity potential of NB in HaCaT cell line. We also observed that photosensitized NB upregulated inflammatory markers, such as COX-2 and TNFα. This study proposes that sunlight exposure should be avoided by patients using nabumetone and proper guidance should be provided by clinicians regarding photosensitivity of drugs for better safety and efficacy.Exposure to organophosphorus nerve agents (NAs) like sarin (GB) and soman (GD) can lead to sustained seizure activity, or status epilepticus (SE). Previous research has shown that activation of A1 adenosine receptors (A1ARs) can inhibit neuronal excitability, which could aid in SE termination. Two A1AR agonists, 2-Chloro-N6-cyclopentyladenosine (CCPA) and N-Bicyclo(2.2.1)hept-2-yl-5'-chloro-5'-deoxyadenosine (ENBA), were effective in terminating GD-induced SE in rats when administered via intraperitoneal (IP) injection. However, IP injection is not a clinically relevant route of administration. This study evaluated the efficacy of these agonists in terminating NA-induced SE when administered via intramuscular (IM) route. Adult male rats were exposed subcutaneously (SC) to either GB (150 μg/kg) or GD (90 μg/kg) and were treated with ENBA or CCPA at 15, 30, or 60 min after seizure onset or left untreated. Up to 7 days after exposure, deeply anesthetized rats were euthanized and perfused brains were removed for histologic assessment of neuropathology (i.
