At the genomic level, Epitalon modulated the expression of key circadian rhythm genes: Clock expression in leukocytes decreased 1.8-fold, Cry2 expression doubled, and Csnk1e expression in lymphocytes decreased by 2.1-fold, all with statistical significance
A pronounced decline was observed in the wall area, the wall thickness of the bronchioles, the wall area/total bronchiole area (MA%) and the wall thickness/bronchiole diameter (MT%) in lung tissues of COPD rats treated with NAC + oe-VWF compared with those treated with individual oe-VWF (Fig
The loss of PCM integrity also allows deeper penetration of cytokines and enzymes, accelerating matrix breakdown (Umlauf et al., 2010)
