Modulation of preeclampsia by the cholinergic anti-inflammatory pathway: Therapeutic perspectives
(
Elsevier
, 2021 , Article Review)
The cholinergic anti-inflammatory pathway (CAP) is vital for the orchestration of the immune and inflammatory responses under normal and challenged conditions. Over the past two decades, peripheral and central circuits of ...
Metabolic changes after surgical fat removal: A dose–response meta-analysis
(
Elsevier
, 2023 , Article Review)
BackgroundBariatric surgery averts obesity-induced insulin resistance and the metabolic syndrome. By contrast, surgical fat removal is considered merely an esthetic endeavor. The aim of this article was to establish whether ...
Umbelliferone inhibits spermatogenic defects and testicular injury in lead-intoxicated rats by suppressing oxidative stress and inflammation, and improving Nrf2/HO-1 signaling
(
