“…Taken together, these observations are pertinent to the distinctive vasculitis and poor wound healing associated with P. aeruginosa sepsis and suggest that the potent antiangiogenic properties of PlcHR are worthy of further investigation for the treatment of diseases where angiogenesis contributes pathological conditions (e.g., vascularization of tumors, diabetic retinopathy).…”

“…PRINCIPAL FINDINGS: Compared to control fed mice, mice fed a high fat diet (HFD; 60% kcal: fat) for 8 weeks displayed increased body mass and insulin resistance without overt fasting hyperglycemia (i.e. pre-diabetic). Histological analysis revealed a greater oxidative potential in the HFD gastrocnemius/plantaris (increased IIA, reduced IIB fiber-type percentages) and soleus (increased I, IIA cross-sectional areas) muscles, but no change in fiber type percentages in tibialis anterior muscles compared to controls. …”

“…CONCLUSION: Corn silk extract markedly reduced hyperglycemia in alloxan-induced diabetic mice. The action of corn silk extract on glycaemic metabolism is not via increasing glycogen and inhibiting gluconeogenesis but through increasing insulin level as well as recovering the injured β-cells. …”

“…PURPOSE: In diseases such as proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR), proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR), and age-related macular degeneration (AMD), retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells can initiate proliferation and migration and secrete extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins. (-)-Epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG)—a natural anti-oxidant flavonoid that is abundant in green tea—has been shown to suppress the migration and adhesion of many cell types, but its effects on RPE cell migration and adhesion were unknown. …”
