AIM:To investigate the effects of hydrogen-rich saline(HRS)on microglia activation and Sirtuin type 1(Sirt1)in rats with N-methyl-N-nitrosourea(MNU)-induced retinitis pigmentosa(RP).METHODS:Rats were divided...
AIM To investigate the inhibitory effect of Liuwei Dihuang Pill(LDP) on gastric tumorigenesis induced by N-methyl-N-nitrosourea(MNU) in diabetic mice.METHODS Four-week-old mice were divided into four groups: A, 12 db/...
Retinal degenerative diseases (RDs) such as retinitis pigmentosa (RP) are characterized by slowly progressive photoreceptor cell death, but the molecular mechanism underlying RP remains unclear. Animal models for ...

AIM:To investigate the effects of naringenin eye drops on N-methyl-N-nitrosourea (MNU)-induced photoreceptor cell death in rats.METHODS:Photoreceptor cell death was induced by single intraperitoneal injection of MNU(6...
Oligonol is a lychee fruit-derived functional food that contains oligomerized polyphenol compounds. Oligonol exhibits a number of beneficial biological effects, primarily due to its antioxidant activity. Retinitis pig...
Background Previous studies have showed that photooxidative stress can leadto down-modulation of nuclear factor-κappa B ( NF-κB ) activity causing apoptosis of culturedphotoreceptor cells. This study aimed at invest...
The sequential histological and sialomucins histochemical changes in colonic epithelium during the N-methyl-N-nitrosourea (MNU) induced colonic carcinogenesis were studied in female ICR mice. The sialomucin histochemi...
To investigate a contribution of O-methylguanineto mutagenesis in mouse cells,we constructed ashuttle vector plasmid,pYZ289,from a part ofpZ189 plasmid and polyoma virus DNA.The plasmidcontains a supF gene as a marker...
