Elucidated the mechanism by which FOXO4-DRI targets senescent endothelial cells through the p53 signaling pathway. Demonstrated that the peptide selectively triggers apoptosis in senescent but not proliferating endothelial cells, with implications for vascular aging research.
Demonstrated that FOXO4-DRI selectively eliminates senescent fibroblasts in keloid scar tissue, reducing collagen overproduction and fibrotic remodeling. Provides evidence for senolytic therapy as a novel approach to pathological scarring.
Showed that ARA-290 exerts neuroprotective effects comparable to erythropoietin in a mouse middle cerebral artery occlusion model, without causing erythropoiesis. The protective mechanism operates through the beta-common receptor, reducing neuronal apoptosis and inflammatory cytokines.
Reviewed carnosine's neuroprotective role in type 2 diabetes-induced cognitive decline. Carnosine's antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-glycation properties may slow neurodegenerative processes accelerated by diabetes. Proposed as an accessible, inexpensive therapeutic candidate for diabetic cognitive impairment.
