A novel curcumin analog sAc15 alleviates LPS-induced acute lung injury by activating the PI3K/AKT/Nrf2 pathway in pulmonary epithelial cells

Abstract Objectives Acute lung injury (ALI) is driven by oxidative stress and disrupted redox homeostasis. While curcumin is a potent natural antioxidant, its clinical application is limited. We evaluated the protective capacity and underlying mechanisms of sAc15, a stable curcumin analog, in ALI models. Methods In vi...

Carboxymethylated Poria cocos Polysaccharides Mitigate Cisplatin‐Induced Hepatorenal Injury by Activating the PLC‐PKC‐Nrf2 Signaling Pathway

ABSTRACT Cisplatin, a commonly used chemotherapy drug, inevitably causes damage to the liver and kidneys while exerting its anti‐tumor effects. Carboxymethylated Poria cocos polysaccharides (CMP) have anti‐inflammatory, antioxidant, and organ‐protective properties, and also exhibit significant anti‐tumor activity. Ther...

Protective Effects of a Polyherbal Combination of Ajuga Bracteosa and Gynura procumbens on Cisplatin-Induced Renal Cytotoxicity Through Modulation of ROS-Mediated Apoptotic Pathways in HEK-293 Cells

Cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity remains a major limitation in chemotherapy, primarily mediated through oxidative stress and apoptosis in renal cells. The present study evaluated the nephroprotective potential of a hydroalcoholic polyherbal extract comprising Ajuga bracteosa and Gynura procumbens (1:1) against cisplati...

Rosmarinic Acid Alleviates Cisplatin‐Induced Acute Kidney Injury by Targeting FYN to Regulate Ferroptosis

ABSTRACT Cisplatin (CDDP) is a widely used chemotherapeutic agent, but its nephrotoxic side effects limit its clinical application, which can lead to severe acute kidney injury (AKI). Growing evidence indicates that ferroptosis plays a critical role in CDDP‐AKI. Rosmarinic acid (RA) is a natural polyphenolic compound e...
