Strategies to Overcome Antileishmanial Drugs Unresponsiveness by Shyam Sundar, Anup Singh, Om Prakash Singh

“…In the current review, we highlight various steps which could be implemented to halt the increasing unresponsiveness of drugs such as monitoring of therapy in the form of rational dosing and duration of treatment, understanding the mechanism of action of the drugs and drug resistance, identification of markers of resistance, distribution of drugs free of cost, evolution of effective combination therapy and immunotherapy, and proper management of HIV/VL coinfection and post-kala-azar dermal leishmaniasis (PKDL). Strong support from governmental agencies and local communities in the form of education and orientation programmes for feasibility of implementing these strategies and affordability within the context of their health systems is needed in controlling and preventing leishmaniasis.…”

Lactoferrin alleviates the adverse effects of early-life inflammation on depression in adults by regulating the activation of microglia by Wenli Wang, Qin An, Yunxia Zou, Yunping Dai, Qingyong Meng, Yali Zhang

“…In contrast, recombinant human lactoferrin promotes neuronal proliferation by upregulating ERK 1 and 2 phosphorylation and attenuates LPS-induced neuronal injury and microglial activation by inhibiting the activation of Toll-like receptor 4—nuclear factor-kappa B pathway in vitro. Our findings suggest that lactoferrin intake during lactation protects neurons by regulating microglial activation, thereby effectively reducing depressive symptoms in adults.…”

Neuroprotective effects of arbutin against oxygen and glucose deprivation-induced oxidative stress and neuroinflammation in rat cortical neurons by Tan Jingjing, Yadav Manoj Kumar, Devi Sushma, Kumar Manish

“…Subsequently, an increase (p < 0.001) in lipid peroxidation and inflammatory cytokines (tumour necrosis factor-α and nuclear factor kappa-B) declined neuron survival. In pre- and post-condition experiments, treatment with arbutin enhanced both survival (p < 0.01) and integrity (p < 0.05) of cultured neurons. …”
