Mashup Score: 26The Inhibitory Roles of Vitamin K in Progression of Vascular Calcification - International Natural Product Sciences Taskforce (INPST) - 4 year(s) ago
Abstract Vitamin K is a fat-soluble vitamin that is indispensable for the activation of vitamin K-dependent proteins (VKDPs) and may be implicated in cardiovascular disease (CVD). Vascular calcification is intimately associated with CV events and mortality and is a chronic inflammatory process in which activated macrophages promote osteoblastic differentiation of vascular smooth muscle cells…

Mashup Score: 20
Abstract Osteoarthritis is a debilitating disease that results in pain and joint stiffness. Currently, steroidal and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and supplements aimed at restoring lubrication to the affected joint are the most successful with respect to improving patient comfort. Due to the success in lubricating therapies, there exists a keen interest to develop better therapies ……

Mashup Score: 36Nanoparticles with EGCG and ascorbic acid to combat Alzheimer's disease - International Natural Product Sciences Taskforce (INPST) - 4 year(s) ago
Abstract Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) is a candidate for treatment of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) but its inherent instability limits bioavailability and effectiveness. We found that EGCG displayed increased stability when formulated as dual-drug loaded PEGylated PLGA nanoparticles (EGCG/AA NPs). Oral administration of EGCG/AA NPs in mice resulted in EGCG accumulation in all major organs,…

Mashup Score: 34Physical Activity and Diet Shape the Immune System during Aging - International Natural Product Sciences Taskforce (INPST) - 4 year(s) ago
Abstract With increasing age, the immune system undergoes a remodeling process, termed immunosenescence, which is accompanied by considerable shifts in leukocyte subpopulations and a decline in various immune cell functions. Clinically, immunosenescence is characterized by increased susceptibility to infections, a more frequent reactivation of latent viruses, decreased vaccine efficacy, and an…

Mashup Score: 21Prebiotic-Induced Anti-tumor Immunity Attenuates Tumor Growth - International Natural Product Sciences Taskforce (INPST) - 4 year(s) ago
Abstract Growing evidence supports the importance of gut microbiota in the control of tumor growth and response to therapy. Here, we select prebiotics that can enrich bacterial taxa that promote anti-tumor immunity. Addition of the prebiotics inulin or mucin to the diet of C57BL/6 mice induces anti-tumor immune responses and inhibition of BRAF mutant melanoma … Continue reading “Prebiotic-Induced…
