Lipid microarrays identify key mediators of autoimmune brain inflammation
Quality vendor comparisons guide sourcing decisions
Deficiency of PD-related gene PINK1 triggers hypoxia-inducible factor-1 (HIF1) stabilization both in vivo and in vitro
The results were striking: Genes upregulated by GHK-Cu include: Collagen I, III, and VII synthesis genes (structural repair) Decorin and proteoglycan genes (extracellular matrix integrity) Antioxidant defense genes (SOD2, catalase, glutathione peroxidase) BDNF and nerve growth factor genes (neural repair and neuroprotection) Anti-inflammatory cytokine genes (IL-10, TGF-1) Angiogenesis genes (VEGF, angiopoietin new blood vessel formation) Stem cell self-renewal pathways Genes downregulated by GHK-Cu include: Pro-inflammatory cytokines (TNF-, IL-6, IL-1) Matrix metalloproteinases MMP-1, MMP-3 (enzymes that degrade collagen and connective tissue) Oxidative stress genes Pathways associated with cancer progression and metastasis The pro-inflammatory gene suppression is particularly notable
So, it is possible to anticipate advantages in the immunological conditions used to treat neuropsychiatric disorders (267, 268)
