5-Methyltetrahydrofolate Rapidly Improves Endothelial Function and Decreases Superoxide Production in Human Vessels | Circulation - 0 views

  •  
    5-MTHF increases BH4 which increases eNOS activity and NO production providing improved endothelial function and thereby providing a mechanism to reduce atherosclerosis.  Interesting that the MTHFR A1298C decreases BH4 in contrast to the 677T.

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy Can Improve Post Concussion Syndrome Years after Mild Traumatic Brain Injury - Randomized Prospective Trial - 0 views

  • The changes in SPECT images after treatment indicate that HBOT led to reactivation of neuronal activity in stunned areas that seemed normal under CT and MRI imaging. While SPECT imaging has a limited spatial resolution (compared, for example, to fMRI), the changes in activity were sufficiently robust to be clearly detected by the SPECT images.
  • HBOT might initiate a cellular and vascular repair mechanism and improve cerebral vascular flow
  • HBOT induces regeneration of axonal white matter [61], [62], [63], [64], has positive effect upon the myelinization and maturation of injured neural fibers [65], and can stimulate axonal growth and increase the ability of neurons to function and communicate with each other

  • HBOT was found to have a role in initiation and/or facilitation of angiogenesis and cell proliferation processes needed for axonal regeneration [67].
  • The observed reactivation of neuronal activity in the stunned areas found here, along with similar results in post-stroke patients
  • At the cellular level, HBOT can improve cellular metabolism, reduce apoptosis, alleviate oxidative stress and increase levels of neurotrophins and nitric oxide through enhancement of mitochondrial function (in both neurons and glial cells)
  • HBOT may promote the neurogenesis of endogenous neural stem cells
  • With regard to secondary injury mechanisms in mTBI, HBOT can initiate vascular repair mechanism and improve cerebral vascular flow [58], [59], [68], [69], promote blood brain barrier integrity and reduce inflammatory reactions [28] as well as brain edema
  • It might be possible that HBOT enables the metabolic change simply by supplying the missing energy/oxygen needed for those regeneration processes.
  •  
    Hbot therapy, according to study, induces neuroplasticity and improves brain function in post concussion syndrome and those with mTBI.  The important point about this study was that the study was done years after the injury; what if the therapy was employed immediately after...

Chronic stress impacts the cardiovascular system: animal models and clinical outcomes | Heart and Circulatory Physiology - 0 views

  •  
    Chronic stress increases cardiovascular disease.  Of note, chronic stress reduces eNOS activity and NO bioavailability, increased lipid oxidation (oxLDL) via a reduction in antioxidant protection, increased pro-inflammatory cytokines, increased thrombosis and clotting risk, increased blood pressure and reduced HRV.

Inhibition of nitric oxide and inflammatory cytokines in LPS-stimulated murine macrophages by resveratrol, a potent proteasome inhibitor. - PubMed - NCBI - 0 views

  •  
    In addition to quercetin, resveratrol and pterostilbene inhibit LPS stimulated cytokine production.

Vitamin C Pharmacokinetics: Implications for Oral and Intravenous Use | Annals of Internal Medicine | American College of Physicians - 0 views

  •  
    IV vitamin C found to significantly increased serum levels beyond that of oral.  IV vitamin C is the only route that should be administered for patients with cancer.  IVC at 50 grams showed peak C concentration at 13,400 micromol/L.  Levels of at least 400-600 are required for tumorcidal effects.  In addition, IV vitamin C increased NO release and decreases b/p

Endothelium and control of vascular function. State of the Art lecture. - PubMed - NCBI - 0 views

  •  
    vitamin C, absorbed via the endothelium, increases NO.  This will have a positive effect in lowering the blood pressure.

Vitamin C inhibits NO-induced stabilization of HIF-1alpha in HUVECs | Request PDF - 0 views

  •  
    Only abstract available. NO increases accumulation of HIF-1alpha and Loading of the cells with vitamin C counteracted NO-induced HIF-1alpha accumulation. It is the HIF-1alpha and HIF-1beta combination that will change genetic expression (epigenetics)

Immunotherapy of C3H/HeJ mammary adenocarcinoma with interleukin-2, mistletoe lectin or their combination: effects on tumour growth, capillary leakage and nitric oxide (NO) production - 0 views

  •  
    Study finds IL-2 reduces cancer proliferation and metastasis; however, mistletoe alone found to stimulate proliferation, though at very low doses i.e. 1 ng/kg, in mouse model.

Antitumor effect of pretreatment for colon cancer cells with hyperthermia plus geranylgeranylacetone in experimental metastasis models and a subcutaneous tumor model of colon cancer in mice - PubMed - 0 views

  •  
    Hyperthermia via HSP70 blocks NF-kappaB and all associated downstream signaling that favor metastasis.
