Nuciferine induces autophagy to relieve vascular cell adhesion molecule 1 activation via repressing the Akt/mTOR/AP1 signal pathway in the vascular endothelium

Pro-inflammatory factor-associated vascular cell adhesion molecule 1 (VCAM1) activation initiates cardiovascular events. This study aimed to explore the protective role of nuciferine on TNFα-induced VCAM1 activation. Nuciferine was administrated to both high-fat diet (HFD)-fed mice and the TNFα-expo...
