Since percutaneous coronary interventions increase in number and complication, more patients must be treated with antiplatelet therapy for cardiovascular diseases in which arterial thrombosis plays a key role. Present an-tiplatelet therapy is greatly effective in preventing atherothrombotic complications. However, the increased number of patients remain to experience persistent complica-tions although being correctly treated, because of pharmacokinetics and interactions of drugs, genetic background and increased thrombus formation. Therefore, several massive research efforts have taken to offer new antiplatelet drugs with better defen-sive properties without any bleeding risk. Sesamol, a dietary compound derived from sesame lignans, has free radical scavenging and antioxidant properties. Sesamol is effective for hyperlipidemia, antihypertension and lipid peroxidation due to its anti-oxidant and cytoprotective properties. We found that sesamol has potent antiplatelet activity via activation of cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP)- endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS)/ nitric oxide (NO)-cGMP pathway and inhibition of phospho-lipase C (PLC)γ2, protein kinase C (PKC) -p38 MAPK-thromboxane A2 (TxA2). Our another study also found that this compound inhibits nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) signaling events to exert its antiplatelet activity. In this review, we summarize the sesamol’s antiplatelet effect through NF-κB/MAPK and PLC signaling pathways.\u0000 \u0000","PeriodicalId":188376,"journal":{"name":"輔仁醫學期刊","volume":"90 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121895570","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Methods: In this single-case experimental study, a qualified FS coach trained two CWHFA by follow-ing the training system developed by the Ice Skating Institute. Multiple baselines of the two CWHFA were formed on several target indices, including EF subcomponents (Taiwanese Traditional-Chinese Childhood Executive Functioning Inventory) and repetition behaviors (Repetitive Behavior Scale-Revised). Social validation was also conducted via interviewing their mothers. Results: The results indicated that both of the CWHFA made progress on FS techniques during their 12 sessions of lessons in 6 weeks. The improved inhibitory control and repetitive behaviors were correlated with and might have probably been modiated by the FS experiences. The positive effects might have transferred to their daily lives. Conclusion: The results suggested that FS experiences helped the two CWHFA on their FS skills and bettered their inhibitory control as well as lowered their repetitive behaviors. Future randomised controlled trials further examining this effect are warranted.\u0000 \u0000","PeriodicalId":188376,"journal":{"name":"輔仁醫學期刊","volume":"15 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123638105","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
