Glaucomatous optic neuropathy implies loss of retinal ganglion cells, including their axons, and a major tissue remodeling, especially in the optic nerve head. Although increased intraocular pressure is a major risk factor for glaucomatous optic neuropathy, there is little doubt

Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs) are members of the nuclear hormone receptor superfamily that plays a pivotal role in regulating inflammatory gene expression. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of coffee extract, 3-methyl-1,2-cyclopentanedione (3-MCP) on PPARs in

It has been known that reactive oxygen and nitrogen species such as nitric oxide (NO), superoxide radical (*O2-) and their byproduct peroxynitrite (ONOO-) induce cellular and tissue injury, ultimately resulting in several human diseases. In this study, we examined scavenging

Activation of the redox-sensitive transcription factor, nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-kappaB), plays a central role in inflammation and aging processes by inducing pro-inflammatory genes. The present study was designed to unravel the molecular mechanisms underlying the anti-inflammation effects of 3-methyl-1,2-cyclopentanedione (3-MCP)
