Plant products may be alternative sources of mosquito larval control agents, since they constitute a rich source of bioactive compounds that are biodegradable into nontoxic products. It has been reported that quinones and derivatives present toxic activity against mosquito larvae Aedes aegypti.
Neotropical monkeys of the genus Cebus anoint themselves by rubbing arthropods and plants against their pelage. A recent study has shown that free-ranging wedge-capped capuchin monkeys (C. olivaceus) in Venezuela self-anoint with a benzoquinone-secreting millipede, an activity by which they are
We investigated the antibacterial activity of some new 2-aryl-3,5-dimethoxy-1,4-benzoquinone derivatives, previously prepared from 2,6-dimethoxy-1,4-benzoquinone by Suzuki cross-coupling reactions, to find effective antibacterial agents. The antibacterial activity was first tested in vitro by the
BACKGROUND

OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the anti-inflammatory, antinociceptive and antioxidant activities of aqueous and ethanol
(R)-2-[4-(quinolin-2-yl-methoxy)phenyl]-2-cyclopentyl acetic acid) (BAY X1005) is an orally active inhibitor of the synthesis of the leukotrienes B4 and C4 in selected animal models that effectively reduces the vascular phenomena of inflammation, i.e., edema formation and leukocyte immigration. The
A novel totally screen-printed flow-through cell for immunoanalysis is presented. It contained screen-printed carbonaceous electrodes, which allowed the determination of peroxidase activity through the electrochemical reduction of p-benzoquinone. As different electrode materials differ strongly in
Pharmacodynamic studies were carried out on (1-(p-chlorobenzoyl)-5-methoxy-2-methylindole-3-acetoxy]acetic acid (acemetacin, TV 1322, Rantudil), a new strongly acting non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agent for elucidation of its mechanism of action. Despite its strong anti-inflammatory activity,
CGP 28237 (5-methylsulphonylamino-6-phenoxy-1-indanone) belongs to a series of structurally novel indanones. The compound is a weak acid (pK = 6.98), but it does not contain a carboxylic group. CGP 28237 exhibits potent anti-inflammatory activity in developing and established adjuvant arthritis in
The safety profile of paracetamol and simvastatin is sufficiently well known, although no interactions between these two medicinal products have been described in the scientific literature so far. A 66-year-old female patient who experienced myocardial infarction and underwent coronary artery bypass
Acetaminophen is commonly used to reduce pain and fever. Unfortunately, overdose of acetaminophen is a leading cause of acute liver injury and failure in many developed countries. The majority of acetaminophen is safely metabolized in the liver and excreted in the urine; however, a small percentage
BACKGROUND
Several Centaurea species are used to alleviate pain and inflammatory symptoms in rheumatoid arthritis, high fever, and head ache in Turkish folk medicine.
OBJECTIVE
The effectiveness of extracts, fractions and subfractions from dried Centaurea solstitialis L. subsp. solstitialis (CSS)
Extracts obtained from the dried aerial parts of Clematis species are used as folk remedy worldwide for the treatment of various inflammatory ailments such as rheumatism and to reduce fever. In order to test the effectiveness of extracts, fractions and subfractions from dried Clematis vitalba L.
1. Two selective inhibitors of arachidonate 5-lipoxygenase, BW A4C and BW A797C, have been studied for their effects on acute inflammatory responses following oral administration to rats and mice. 2. The concentrations of the lipoxygenase product leukotriene B4 (LTB4) in 6 h inflammatory exudates,
Acetaminophen has been used safely and effectively for many years to manage pain and/or fever in patients of all ages. It is commonly recommended as first-line therapy for a variety of patients and conditions, including the elderly, children with viral illnesses, and patients with osteoarthritis,
