Excessive exposure to solar radiation induces injurious effects on human skin. Our previous study evidenced that protocatechuic acid (P0) and ethyl protocatechuate (P2) act against photodamage and photoaging. The present study aimed to develop solid lipid nanoparticles (SLNs) and nanostructured

Recently a family of O(2)-dependent prolyl hydroxylase domain-containing enzymes (PHD) has been identified as a cellular oxygen-sensing mechanism. Reduced prolyl hydroxylase activity initiates a signalling cascade that includes the accumulation, as well as the activation, of hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF-1alpha). In

The mitochondrial permeability transition (MPT) plays an important role in hepatocyte death caused by ischemia-reperfusion (IR). This study investigated whether activation of the cellular oxygen-sensing signal cascade by prolyl hydroxylase inhibitors (PHI) protects against the MPT after hepatic IR. Ethyl

Hypoxia-inducible transcription factors (HIF) mediate complex adaptations to reduced oxygen supply, including neoangiogenesis. Regulation of HIF occurs mainly through oxygen-dependent destruction of its alpha subunit. In the presence of oxygen, two HIFalpha prolyl residues undergo enzymatic hydroxylation, which is required

Oxygen-sensing prolyl-hydroxylase (PHD)-2 negatively regulates hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF)1-α and suppresses the hypoxic response. Hypoxia signaling is thought to be proinflammatory but also attenuates cellular injury and apoptosis. Although increased hypoxic response has been noted in asthma, its functional relevance is
