The streptozotocin-induced reduction in body weight, and increased feed/water intake, insulin, glucose, and HbA1c levels were mitigated by okanin or gabapentin. In DPN rats, Okanin or gabapentin ameliorated insulin resistance and β-cell function, inflammatory indices, and oxidative stress in the sciatic nerve of rodents thereby culminating in a decrease in hyperalgesia and allodynia. Okanin and streptozotocin-treated rats had significantly declined levels of AGEs, the receptor for AGEs, and NF-κB, and an upsurge in Nrf2 expression.

Guinea pigs were treated with a specific blocker, CaCCinh-A01 (10 μM), administered via inhalation. A significant reduction in cough reflex sensitivity and specific airway resistance was observed in animals treated with CaCCinh-A01, highlighting its potential to improve airway function. Despite a reduction in ciliary beating frequency (CBF), CaCCinh-A01 reduced airway mucus viscosity by decreasing the production of mucin-5AC (MUC5AC). The nonspecific reduction in the Th1/Th2 cytokine spectrum following CaCCinh-A01 treatment indicated the suppression of airway inflammation. Additionally, markers associated with airway remodeling were diminished, suggesting that CaCCinh-A01 may counteract structural changes in airway tissues. Therefore, inhibition appears to mitigate the pathological aspects of asthma, including airway hyperresponsiveness, inflammation, and remodeling. However, further studies are required to comprehensively evaluate the potential of TMEM16A as a therapeutic target for asthma.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":16786,"journal":{"name":"Journal of pharmacological sciences","volume":"156 4","pages":"Pages 239-246"},"PeriodicalIF":3.0,"publicationDate":"2024-10-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142552112","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Further, CD34-negative HAVICs are highly sensitive to calcification stimulations. Here, we aimed to pathophysiologically clarify the role of CD34 in HAVICs obtained from individual patients with severe CAVS. A DNA microarray between CD34-positive and CD34-negative HAVICs, separated by fluorescence-activated cell sorting, indicated that tenascin X (TNX) mRNA expression significantly decreased in CD34-negative cells. Furthermore, the inflammatory cytokines, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α and interleukin (IL)-1β significantly downregulated CD34 expression in HAVICs. TGF-β, a key cytokine of endothelial-mesenchymal transition, did not affect HAVIC calcification. CD34 overexpression strongly inhibited TNF-α- and IL-1β-induced calcification and maintained TNX mRNA expression. These results suggest one possibility that CD34 is an inhibitory regulator of valve calcification.
