Functionally Optimized Neuritogenic Farinosone C Analogs: SAR-Study and Investigations on Their Mode of Action

Karl Gademann, Patrick Burch, Andrea Chicca

Several natural products derived from entomopathogenic fungi have been shown to initiate neuronal differentiation in the rat pheochromocytoma PC12 cell line. After the successful completion of the total synthesis program, the reduction of structural comple ...

Treatment with Angiotensin-(1-7) reduces inflammation in carotid atherosclerotic plaques

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Rafaela Fernandes Da Silva, Luciano Dos Santos Aggum Capettini, Fabiana Pereira Da Costa Fraga, Katia Galan

Angiotensin (Ang)-(1-7), acting through the receptor Mas, has athero-protective effects; however, its role on plaque vulnerability has been poorly studied. Here, we investigated the expression of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) components in stable and ...

Nicotinamide phosphoribosyltransferase inhibition reduces intraplaque CXCL1 production and associated neutrophil infiltration in atherosclerotic mice

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Rafaela Fernandes Da Silva, Katia Galan

Pharmacological treatments targeting CXC chemokines and the associated neutrophil activation and recruitment into atherosclerotic plaques hold promise for treating cardiovascular disorders. Therefore, we investigated whether FK866, a nicotinamide phosphori ...

Treatment with CB2 Agonist JWH-133 Reduces Histological Features Associated with Erectile Dysfunction in Hypercholesterolemic Mice

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Rafaela Fernandes Da Silva, Younouss Faye

Hypercholesterolemia is one of the most important risk factors for erectile dysfunction, mostly due to the impairment of oxidative stress and endothelial function in the penis. The cannabinoid system might regulate peripheral mechanisms of sexual function; ...

The Consequences of adolescent chronic unpredictable stress exposure on brain and behavior

There is increasing evidence for adolescence as a time period vulnerable to environmental perturbations such as stress. What is unclear is the persistent nature of the effects of stress and how specific these effects are to the type of stressor. In this re ...

Treatment with Evasin-3 reduces atherosclerotic vulnerability for ischemic stroke, but not brain injury in mice

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Luciano Dos Santos Aggum Capettini, Danielle Gomes Passos Silva, Jean-Christophe Copin, Katia Galan

Neutrophilic inflammation might have a pathophysiological role in both carotid plaque rupture and ischemic stroke injury. Here, we investigated the potential benefits of the CXC chemokine-binding protein Evasin-3, which potently inhibits chemokine bioactiv ...

Increase of arginase activity in old apolipoprotein-E deficient mice under Western diet associated with changes in neurovascular unit

Rafaela Fernandes Da Silva, Jean-Christophe Copin

Aging and atherosclerosis are well-recognized risk factors for cardiac and neurovascular diseases. The Apolipoprotein E deficient (ApoE-/-) mouse on a high-fat diet is a classical model of atherosclerosis, characterized by the presence of atherosclerotic p ...

Role of macrophage scavenger receptors in atherosclerosis

Accumulating evidence indicates that atherosclerosis is a chronic inflammatory disease. The key innate immune cells that are involved in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis are circulating monocytes and plaque macrophages. Complex interplay between immune ...

Regulation of arginase pathway in response to wall shear stress

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Veronica Gambillara, Paolo Silacci, Fabienne Riche, Tyler Nerton Thacher, Rafaela Fernandes Da Silva

Alterations of wall shear stress can predispose the endothelium to the development of atherosclerotic plaques. Ample evidence indicates that arginase expression and/or activity correlates with several risk factors for cardiovascular disease including ather ...

Dysregulation of gene expression in primary neuron models of Huntington's disease shows that polyglutamine-related effects on the striatal transcriptome may not be dependent on brain circuitry

Diana Zala, Patrick Aebischer, Valérie Gafner, Nicole Déglon, Heike Runne, Ozgün Gökce

Gene expression changes are a hallmark of the neuropathology of Huntington's disease (HD), but the exact molecular mechanisms of this effect remain uncertain. Here, we report that in vitro models of disease comprised of primary striatal neurons expressing ...
