Perforator flap transplantation is an important technique in reconstructive surgery, but necrosis limits its clinical effectiveness. Thymoquinone (TQ), a natural bioactive plant quinone found black seed, exhibits anti-inflammatory, angiogenic, and antimicrobial properties. This study investigates the therapeutic effects of TQ perforator model through vivo vitro experiments. Human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) were treated with Tert-butyl Hydroperoxide (TBHP) to simulate then TQ. In experiments used rat model, vascularization was assessed using Doppler ultrasound on days 3 7 after creation. On day post-surgery, samples collected evaluate vascularity, reactive oxygen species, apoptosis pyroptosis. Network pharmacology analysis conducted identify relevant signaling pathways, molecular docking techniques predict potential target binding sites. results showed that both treatment NLRP3 inhibitors reduced expression pyroptosis-related proteins. indicated TQ-treated group had increased survival area, blood flow intensity, microvascular density, while oxidative stress, apoptosis, pyroptosis levels reduced. Angiogenesis enhanced, SIRT1 protein increased, p-P65/NF-κB/NLRP3 pathway downregulated. After inhibitor, rate angiogenesis These findings suggest improves by inhibiting NF-κB/NLRP3 promoting angiogenesis.

Cerebral ischemic stroke is characterized by acute ischemia in a certain part of the brain, which leads to brain cells necrosis, apoptosis, ferroptosis, pyroptosis, etc. At present, there are limited effective clinical treatments for cerebral stroke, and recovery blood circulation will lead ischemia-reperfusion injury (CIRI). involves many pathological processes such as oxidative stress, inflammation, mitochondrial dysfunction. Nuclear factor erythroid 2-related 2 (Nrf2), one most critical antioxidant transcription factors cells, can coordinate various cytoprotective inhibit stress. Targeting Nrf2 considered potential strategy prevent treat injury. During ischemia, participates signaling pathways Keap1, PI3K/AKT, MAPK, NF-κB, HO-1, then alleviates or CIRI inhibiting anti-inflammation, maintaining homeostasis, protecting blood–brain barrier, ferroptosis. In this review, we have discussed structure Nrf2, mechanisms related research on treatment through pathway recent years, expounded important role future stroke.

Stroke is one of the leading causes death and long-term disability worldwide. More than 80 % strokes are ischemic, caused by an occlusion cerebral arteries. Without question, restoration blood supply as soon possible first therapeutic strategy. Nonetheless paradoxically, reperfusion can further aggravate injury through a series reactions known ischemia-reperfusion (CIRI). Mitochondria play vital role in promoting nerve survival neurological function recovery mitochondrial dysfunction considered characteristics CIRI. Neurons often die due to oxidative stress imbalance energy metabolism following CIRI, there strong association with dysfunction. Altered dynamics reaction stress.

Cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury (CIRI) is a major contributor to poor prognosis of ischemic stroke. Flavonoids are broad family plant polyphenols which abundant in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) and have beneficial effects on several diseases including Accumulating studies indicated that flavonoids derived from herbal TCM effective alleviating CIRI after stroke vitro or vivo , exhibit favourable therapeutical potential. Herein, we systematically review the classification, metabolic absorption, neuroprotective efficacy, mechanisms against CIRI. The literature suggest exert potential medicinal functions suppressing excitotoxicity, Ca 2+ overloading, oxidative stress, inflammation, thrombin’s cellular toxicity, different types programmed cell deaths, protecting blood-brain barrier, as well promoting neurogenesis recovery stage following Furthermore, identified certain matters should be taken into account future research, proposed difficulties opportunities transforming TCM-derived medications functional foods for treatment prevention Overall, this aim provide novel ideas identification new prospective medication candidates therapeutic strategy

The current study supports the hypothesis that in people with PAD, cocoa flavanols activate Nrf2, thereby increasing antioxidant protein levels, protecting against skeletal muscle damage, and mitochondrial abundance. These results suggest Nrf2 activation may be an important therapeutic target for improving walking performance PAD.

Abstract Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF) is a severe, rapidly advancing disease that drastically diminishes life expectancy. Without treatment, it can progress to lung cancer. The precise etiology of IPF remains unknown, but inflammation and damage the alveolar epithelium are widely thought be pivotal in its development. Research has indicated activating NLRP3 inflammasome crucial mechanism pathogenesis, as triggers release pro-inflammatory cytokines such IL-1β, IL-18, TGF-β. These contribute myofibroblast differentiation extracellular matrix (ECM) accumulation. Currently, treatment options for limited. Only two FDA-approved medications, pirfenidone nintedanib, available. While these drugs decelerate progression, they come with range side effects do not cure disease. Additional strategies primarily involve supportive care therapy. Emerging research highlighted numerous flavonoids derived from traditional medicines inhibit critical regulators responsible inflammasome. show promise potential therapeutic agents managing IPF, offering new avenue targets core inflammatory processes this debilitating condition.

Delayed neurocognitive recovery (dNCR) is a prevalent perioperative neurological complication in older patients and has common characteristics such as acute cognitive dysfunction, impaired memory, inattention. Mesenchymal stem cell-derived exosomes (MSCs-Exo) are enclosed by lipid bilayer contain proteins, DNA, miRNA, other components, which important mediators of intercellular communication. It been reported that could play an role the treatment neurodegenerative diseases, nerve injury, diseases. In this study, we examined effects MSCs-Exo on dNCR aged mice after exploratory laparotomy evaluated their potential regulatory mechanisms. We found ameliorated impairment mice. inhibit hippocampus ferroptosis increase expression silent information regulator 1 (SIRT1), factor nuclear factor-erythroid 2-related 2 (Nrf2), heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) Interestingly, above were abolished SIRT1 selective inhibitor EX-527. conclusion, these findings indicated can ameliorate inhibiting via activating SIRT1/Nrf2/HO-1 signaling pathway, providing avenue for dNCR.
