Does neuroprotective effect of the methanolic extract of Hibiscus asper leave in 6-hydroxydopamine-lesioned rat model of Parkinson 's disease?
Taken together, our results suggest that the methanolic extract of Hibiscus asper leaves possesses neuroprotective activity against 6-OHDA-induced toxicity through antioxidant and antiapoptotic activities in Parkinson's disease model.
ALI/ARDS BALF-induced myofibroblast differentiation is partially attributable to TGF-beta1. Procollagen 3 and alphaSMA are regulated by distinct mechanisms in ALI/ARDS and there may be an optimal level of myofibroblast induction that is associated with better outcome.
