However, the underlying mechanism remains largely unknown. Here, we investigated the effect of HFD-induced obesity on gene expressions of ATM polarization markers and inflammatory cytokines in male rats with different ages and the possible role of AMPK/SIRT1 pathway in mediating this effect. Sixty male wistar rats were divided into young, adult and old-age groups. Rats of each group were either fed standard diet or HFD. The present results revealed that HFD feeding in all age groups resulted in increased body weight, lipids, visceral adiposity and induced hyperglycemia and insulin resistance compared to controls. Findings revealed significant higher AT IL-6 levels and lower IL-10 levels with significant upregulation of CD11c and CD206 mRNA expressions in all age groups. The histological findings showed increased inflammation and presence of crown like structures in adult and old HFD groups. Moreover, the HFD-induced obesity in groups resulted in significant reduction in p-AMPK levels and SIRT1 expression in AT as compared to controls. AMPK and SIRT1 was positively correlated with IL-10 and CD206 and negatively correlated with TG, HOMA-IR, IL-6 and CD11c in obese groups of different ages. In conclusion, HFD-induced obesity in all ages leads to ATMs polarization and increased inflammatory response that may contribute to metabolic dysfunction. In addition, AMPK/SIRT1 pathway is suggested to be a mediator of ATMs polarization. Thus, targeting this pathway may be promising for treating obesity and aging-related diseases.","PeriodicalId":9347,"journal":{"name":"Bulletin of Egyptian Society for Physiological Sciences","volume":"31 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141706224","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}

It also increased levels of oxidative enzymes, such as SOD and GSH, and decreased MDA enzymes, as well as essential neurotransmitter AChE enzyme in homogenates of the cerebral cortex. These findings were further supported by improvements in histological examination. Additionally, the effects of mixed therapies are more comparable to those of solo treatment.

Along term occurrence with GU has maximum risk of stomach cancer. Ashwagandha can be used in herbal medicine for treatment of stress, headache, muscle pains and convulsions. Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are drugs widely prescribed for many patients to treat gastrointestinal disorders, such gastro-esophageal reflux, and peptic ulcer. Aim : To investigate whether ashwagandha and/or PPIs could protect against stress induced gastric ulcer and if this protection is mediated the synthesis and release of inflammatory and oxidative stress markers. Material and Methods : Thirty adult male rats were randomized, into 5 groups/6 rats each Stress gastric ulcer was induced, both Ashwagandha and PPI were administrated orally for 15 days after induction of GU. Withdrawal of blood samples for chemical and spectral assay of antioxidant markers were done. Histopathology and immunohistochemistry of TGF-β and TNF - α were done. Results: Both ashwagandha treated group and PPI treated group showed significant decrease in MDA level. The combined treated group showed much more decrease in the MDA level and There was a significant increase in GSH level in Ashwagandha treated group. Conclusion : Ashwagandha possesses promising stress-induced gastric ulcers healing activity. It improved stomach function, gastric pH, acid secretion, and reduced mucosal hemorrhagic lesions with restoration of the architecture of the mucosal layer in rats by its antioxidant activity, suppressing the inflammatory cascade, promotion of gastric barrier repair and inhibiting TGF-β/SMAD4 pathway.","PeriodicalId":9347,"journal":{"name":"Bulletin of Egyptian Society for Physiological Sciences","volume":"14 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141695651","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}

Results: Our findings revealed aging was associated with impaired cognitive parameters, increased total oxidant status (TOS) with a reduction in total antioxidant capacity (TAC), eNOS/NOx, and BDNF in the aged group versus the young.

The dataset used in this study consisted of 70,692 observations obtained from the 2015 BRFSS. It included information on 21 potential risk factors and a binary outcome variable indicating the presence or absence of a stroke. The data analysis was conducted using Google Colab, a cloud-based platform that supports the programming language Python and its libraries. Results : The logistic regression analysis revealed that the strongest associations with stroke were observed for heart disease or heart attack (p <0.001), high blood pressure (p < 0.001), high cholesterol (p < 0.001) and difficulties in walking (p < 0.001). Other risk factors that showed significant associations with stroke were diabetes, smoking, fruit consumption, vegetable consumption, general health perception, mental health, physical health, age, education and income. It is important to note that some risk factors, including cholesterol check, physical activity, access to healthcare and absence of doctor visits, did not exhibit statistically significant associations with stroke.
