Quercetin modulates signaling pathways and induces apoptosis in cervical cancer cells.
PMID: Biosci Rep. 2019 Aug 30 ;39(8). Epub 2019 Aug 13. PMID: 31366565 Abstract Title: Quercetin modulates signaling pathways and induces apoptosis in cervical cancer cells. Abstract: Cancer cells have the unique ability to overcome natural defense mechanisms, undergo unchecked proliferation and evade apoptosis. While chemotherapeutic drugs address this, they are plagued by a long …

Cinnamaldehyde ameliorates high-glucose-induced oxidative stress and cardiomyocyte injury.
PMID: J Cardiovasc Pharmacol. 2019 Jul ;74(1):30-37. PMID: 31274840 Abstract Title: Cinnamaldehyde Ameliorates High-Glucose-Induced Oxidative Stress and Cardiomyocyte Injury Through Transient Receptor Potential Ankyrin 1. Abstract: Oxidative stress plays a critical role in diabetic cardiomyopathy. Transient receptor potential ankyrin subtype 1 (TRPA1) has antioxidative property. In this study, we tested whether activation of TRPA1 with …
Cinnamaldehyde enhances apoptotic effect of oxaliplatin and reverses epithelial-mesenchymal transition and stemnness in hypoxic colorectal cancer cells.
PMID: Exp Cell Res. 2019 Jul 12:111500. Epub 2019 Jul 12. PMID: 31306656 Abstract Title: Cinnamaldehyde enhances apoptotic effect of oxaliplatin and reverses epithelial-mesenchymal transition and stemnness in hypoxic colorectal cancer cells. Abstract: Oxaliplatin has been widely applied in clinical tumor chemotherapy, the treatment failure of which mainly blames on low susceptibility resulted from intrinsic …
Protective effect of cinnamon against acetaminophen-mediated cellular damage and apoptosis in renal tissue.
PMID: Environ Sci Pollut Res Int. 2019 Jan ;26(1):240-249. Epub 2018 Nov 3. PMID: 30392171 Abstract Title: Protective effect of cinnamon against acetaminophen-mediated cellular damage and apoptosis in renal tissue. Abstract: Acetaminophen, APAP, is a common over-the-counter drug with antipyretic-analgesic action. When APAP is used in large doses, it causes hepatotoxicity and nephrotoxicity but safe …
Cortical tau burden and behavioural dysfunctions in mice exposed to monosodium glutamate in early life.
PMID: PLoS One. 2019 ;14(8):e0220720. Epub 2019 Aug 14. PMID: 31412065 Abstract Title: Cortical tau burden and behavioural dysfunctions in mice exposed to monosodium glutamate in early life. Abstract: Although monosodium glutamate (MSG)-induced neurotoxicity has been recognized for decades, the potential similarities of the MSG model to Alzheimer's disease (AD)-type neuropathology have only recently been …
