Article Title: The Berberine Derivative BBR684 Inhibits VDAC Oligomerization to Suppress Ferroptosis in Acute Kidney Injury

doi: 10.1016/j.curtheres.2026.100825

Figure Lengend Snippet: BBR684 attenuates Erastin-induced ferroptosis in HK-2 cells by suppressing lipid peroxidation and activating the antioxidant response. (A) Flow cytometric analysis of lipid peroxidation using the C11-BODIPY probe in HK-2 cells treated as indicated for 12 hours. Data are presented as mean fluorescence intensity (MFI). (B) Intracellular Fe²⁺ levels measured by a ferrous iron colorimetric assay. (C, D) Levels of malondialdehyde (MDA, C) and reduced glutathione (GSH, D) in cell lysates. (E, F) Representative immunofluorescence images (E) and quantification (F) of 4-hydroxynonenal (4-HNE) adducts (red) in HK-2 cells. Nuclei were counterstained with DAPI (blue). Scale bar, 50 µm. (G) Western blot analysis of key ferroptosis-related proteins: glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4), heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1), and nuclear factor erythroid 2–related factor 2 (NRF2). β-actin served as the loading control. Data are from 3 independent biological replicates (n = 3) and presented as mean ± SEM. Significance was determined by one-way ANOVA followed by Tukey's HSD post hoc test. * P < 0.05, ** P < 0.01, *** P < 0.001; n.s., not significant.

Article Snippet: Antibodies against GPX4 (Catalog #3F5G5), HO-1 (Catalog #10701-1-AP), NRF2 (Catalog #16396-1-AP), VDAC (Catalog #10866-1-AP), Cleaved Caspase-3 (Catalog #68773-1-Ig), and CD45 (Catalog #98035-1-RR) were purchased from Proteintech.

Article Title: Subcritical Water Extract from Grape Pomace Protects Human Bronchial Epithelium Cells by Mitigating Oxidative Stress Through Nrf2 Pathway

doi: 10.3390/molecules31101736

Figure Lengend Snippet: SWE 160.1 treatment increased the antioxidant response. ( a ) Western blotting analysis of antioxidant factors (HO-1, SOD-2 and Nrf2) after 48 h of treatment with 75 and 100 µg GAE/mL SWE 160.1 in HBE cells. Protein levels were normalized to γ-tubulin. ( b ) qRT-PCR analysis of Nrf2, Keap1 and HO-1 mRNA levels after 24 h of treatment with 75 and 100 µg GAE/mL SWE 160.1 in HBE cells. Gene expression levels represent the relative mRNA expression compared to the untreated cells, normalized to GAPDH mRNA. ( c ) Western blotting of subcellular fractions of control and 48 h SWE 160.1 -treated cells incubated with pNrf2 (Ser40) antibody. Lamin A and GADPH antibodies marked as nuclei (N) and cytoplasmic (C) fractions, respectively. The images are representative of three different experiments. * p < 0.05, ** p < 0.01 vs. untreated control cells.

Article Snippet: The primers used were GAPDH (Proligo USA, Milan, Italy), Nrf2 ( HP209154 , OriGene Technologies, Inc., Rockville, MD, USA) and HO-1 ( HP205872 , OriGene Technologies, Inc., USA).

doi: 10.3390/molecules31101736

Figure Lengend Snippet: SWE 160.1 treatment overwhelmed LPS-induced HO-1-reduction. Western blotting analysis of HO-1 enzyme after 48 h of treatment with 2 µg/mL LPS alone or in combination with 100 µg GAE/mL SWE 160.1 . Protein levels were normalized to γ-tubulin. Densitometric analysis, performed using Quantity One software, (version 4.6.6), is shown in the histogram. The result is representative of two independent experiments, with values expressed as mean ± SD. ** p < 0.01 vs. untreated control cells.
