The aim of this meta-analysis was to evaluate the efficacy of phytoextracts from the oleogum resin of the Boswellia genus as supplementation for patients affected by knee OA. Four electronic databases were used for the research and PRISMA statements were followed throughout the study. The following inclusion criteria were used: (a) the subjects of the study were humans with a diagnosis of knee OA reported by medical staff; (b) randomization and the presence of control (placebo, negative or positive control), and (c) outcomes reported with WOMAC and/or visual analog scale (VAS) score. Publication bias was assessed with a funnel plot and through the Egger test. The Jadad scale was used in order to assess the quality of the studies included. The statistical heterogeneity was assessed using I<sup>2</sup> statistics. Results of meta-analysis and subgroup analysis were reported using a forest plot. A total of 13 studies involving 850 (WOMAC) and 1185 (VAS) patients met the inclusion criteria. The meta-analysis did not detect a significant effect of the use of Boswellia extracts between the control and the treatment groups due to the high heterogeneity of the studies (p = 0.0865 for WOMAC) and (p = 0.3966 VAS). However, the subsequent subgroup analysis demonstrated the significant beneficial effect of Boswellia extracts in the treatment of knee OA with respect to a placebo (lower WOMAC score in the treatment groups). This was also confirmed in the meta-regression applied to the WOMAC scores. This is an important finding as people exposed to NSAID-related adverse effects could benefit from the use of Boswellia extracts.

We validated the protective effects of PUN against D-galactose (D-gal)-induced neuroinflammation and subsequent neuronal damage in BV2 microglia and N2a cells, respectively, in vitro. In vivo experiments were conducted on mice that were administered an 8-week regimen of intraperitoneal injections of D-gal at a dosage of 150 mg/kg/day, concurrently with oral gavage of PUN at the same dose. PUN inhibited the production of D-gal-induced inflammatory cytokines (iNOS, COX2, TNF-α, IL-6, IL-2, and IL-1β) in BV2 cells and conferred protection to N2a cells against synaptic damage mediated by BV2 microglia-induced neuroinflammation. The in vivo findings revealed that PUN considerably improved memory and learning deficits, reduced MDA levels, enhanced GSH-Px, CAT, and SOD activities, and modulated the expression of inflammatory proteins such as iNOS, COX-2, IL-1β, IL-2, IL-6, and TNF-α. Furthermore, PUN inhibited the secretion of SASP factors (ICAM-1, PAI-1, MMP-3, and MMP-9), decreased microglial activation, and reduced astrocytosis. Additionally, PUN suppressed the expression of cGAS, p-STING, p-TBK1, p-p65, and p-IRF3 in aging mouse brains and cultured BV2 microglia.

This study aimed to investigate the protective effects of EB on hypobaric hypoxia-induced HAPE and explore the underlying molecular mechanism of regulating autophagy. The rat model of high-altitude pulmonary edema was replicated using a hypobaric hypoxic chamber. Rats were pretreated with EB or in combination with chloroquine or compound C. The pulmonary edema was assessed by the lung wet/dry ratio, total protein concentration in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid, and histological analysis. Inflammation and oxidative stress were measured using commercial biochemical kits.

Therefore, BBB-penetrating p38 MAPK modulators with proper antioxidant capacity could be useful in preventing/reducing the complications of neurodegenerative disorders. The current manuscript aims to review the therapeutic capabilities of some recently reviewed naturally occurring p38 MAPK inhibitors in the management of neurodegenerative problems such as Alzheimer's disease.

Many cancers have altered energy metabolism pathways, such as increased glucose uptake and glycolysis, as well as decreased oxidative phosphorylation. This is known as the Warburg effect, where cancer cells become more reliant on glucose to generate energy and produce lactate as an end product, even when oxygen is present. These are attributed to the overexpression of key glycolytic enzymes, glucose transporters, and related signaling pathways that occur in cancer cells. Therefore, overcoming metabolic alterations in cancer cells has recently become a target for therapeutic approaches. Natural products have played a key role in drug discovery, especially for cancer and infectious diseases. In this review, we are going to focus on terpenoids, which are gradually gaining popularity among drug researchers due to their reported anti-cancer effects via cell cycle arrest, induction of apoptosis, reduction of proliferation, and metastasis. This review summarizes the potential of 13 terpenoid compounds as anti-glycolytic inhibitors in different cancer models, primarily by inhibiting the glucose uptake and the generation of lactate, as well as by downregulating enzymes associated to glycolysis.

Within the brain, neurons are particularly sensitive to oxidation due in part to their weak intrinsic antioxidant defense. Theoretically, neurons mostly depend on neighboring astrocytes to provide antioxidant protection by supplying cysteine‐containing products for glutathione (GSH) synthesis. Astrocytes and neurons possess several amino acid transport systems for GSH and its precursors. Indeed, GSH is the most abundant intrinsic antioxidant in the central nervous system. The GSH depletion and/or alterations in its metabolism in the brain contribute to the pathogenesis of PD. Noteworthy, polyphenols possess potent antioxidant activity and can augment the GSH redox system. Numerous in vitro and in vivo studies have indicated that polyphenols exhibit potent neuroprotective effects in PD. Epidemiological studies have found an association between the consumption of dietary polyphenols and a lower PD risk. In this review, we summarize current knowledge on the biosynthesis and metabolism of GSH in the brain, with an emphasis on their contribution and therapeutic potential in PD. In particular, we focus on polyphenols that can increase brain GSH levels against PD.
