The most promising compounds in the study, 1 and 2 , showed inhibitory activities with IC 50 values of 0.102 and 0.064 M, against 2.588 and 0.028 M of the positive controls, alupurinol and febuxostat (Figure 4)
Western blotting showed that two of the three key enzymes involved in regulating glycolysis, pyruvate kinase L/R-type (PKLR) and phosphofructokinase 1 (PFK-1), were downregulated in male livers compared to controls
Mitochondrial-derived reactive oxygen species and oxidized mtDNA are potent activators of the NLRP3 inflammasome, driving maturation of IL-1 and IL-18, which in turn enhance Th1 and Th17 responses essential for protection against Candida albicans and Aspergillus fumigatus (Hise et al., 2009
