Nanoencapsulated quercetin improves cardioprotection during hypoxia-reoxygenation injury.
PMID: Oxid Med Cell Longev. 2019 ;2019:7683051. Epub 2019 Jun 24. PMID: 31341535 Abstract Title: Nanoencapsulated Quercetin Improves Cardioprotection during Hypoxia-Reoxygenation Injury through Preservation of Mitochondrial Function. Abstract: The effective delivery of antioxidants to the cells is hindered by their high metabolization rate. In this work, quercetin was encapsulated in poly(lactic-co-glycolic) acid (PLGA) nanoparticles. They …
Perinatal bisphenol A exposure and reprogramming of imprinted gene expression in the adult mouse brain.
PMID: Front Genet. 2019 ;10:951. Epub 2019 Oct 10. PMID: 31649729 Abstract Title: Perinatal Bisphenol A Exposure and Reprogramming of Imprinted Gene Expression in the Adult Mouse Brain. Abstract: Genomic imprinting, a phenomenon by which genes are expressed in a monoallelic, parent-of-origin-dependent fashion, is critical for normal brain development. Expression of imprinted genes is regulatedepigenetic …
