Butylated hydroxytoluene, a common food additive, is known to produce proliferative pulmonary changes characterized by increased DNA, RNA, and lung weight. In the present study, reactive hyperplasia and fibrosis were produced within 9 days after a single intraperitoneal injection of 400 mg. per kg.
Respiratory complications, especially pulmonary edema, account for over 50% of mortalities in inhalation injuries. This study was conducted to determine the effect of free radical scavengers and hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) in vivo on reducing pulmonary edema. Adult New Zealand rabbits were allowed to
Cellular edema and increased lactate production were induced in rat brain cortical slices by xanthine oxidase and xanthine, in the presence of ferric dialdehyde, was increased 174%. Among the various subcellular fractions of brain cortex, xanthine oxidase-stimulated lipid peroxidation was highest in
The intraperitoneal administration of either butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT) +/- thoracic X-irradiation, or cyclophosphamide, and intravenous injection of oleic acid, resulted in lung injury and repair in BALB/c mice which could be assessed in unanesthetized animals by changes in respiratory rate
Culinary mushroom Pleurotus pulmonarius has been popular in Asian countries. In this study, the anti-oxidant, cholinesterase, and inflammation inhibitory activities of methanol extract (ME) of fruiting bodies of P. pulmonarius were evaluted. The 1,1-diphenyl-2-picryl-hydrazy free radical scavenging
Synthetic phenolic antioxidants (SPAs) have gained high concerns due to their extensive usages and unintended environmental release via various routes. Their contamination in water system could pose potential threat to aquatic organisms, therefore, the studies on the aquatic toxicology of this kind
Lythrum salicaria (purple loosestrife) known as "Tibbi hevhulma" in Turkish is used for its several beneficial health effects against as diarrhea, chronic intestinal catarrh, hemorrhoid and eczema in the form of a decoction or a fluid extract and to treat varicose veins, bleeding of the gums,
JP-8 is the major jet fuel used by US Air Force. JP-8+100 is a new jet fuel recently introduced by the US Air Force, which contains JP-8 plus three performance additives [butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT), metal deactivator (MDA) and 8Q405]. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the
Ethanolic extract (CC-516) from Areca catechu L was prepared and its various biological activities were evaluated, CC-516 showed potent anti-oxidative, free radical scavenging, and anti-hyaluronidase activity. Anti-oxidative effect of CC-516 (IC _ 50: 45.4 mug/ml) was lower than butylated
In vitro antioxidative and anti-inflammatory bioassay-guided fractionation of the methanol: ethyl acetate crude extract of the thalli of red seaweed Gracilaria opuntia collected from the Gulf of Mannar led to the isolation of a new morpholine alkaloid
Nordihydroguaiaretic acid inhibits prostaglandin (PG) biosynthesis in vitro (ID50=228 muM), with a slope of dose-response curve high (b=209) as compared with indomethacin (ID50=0.1 muM, b=72.1). Butylated hydroxyanisole, in contrast to inactive butylated hydroxytoluene, inhibits PG biosynthesis
The problem of whether or not active oxygen species are involved in pulmonary injury by diesel exhaust particles (DEP) was investigated. We found that DEP could produce superoxide O2.- and hydroxyl radical (.OH) in vitro without any biological activating systems. In this reaction system, O2.- and
Pulmonary tissue can be damaged in different ways, for instance by xenobiotics (paraquat, butylated hydroxytoluene, bleomycin), during inflammation, ischemia reperfusion, or exposure to mineral dust or to normobaric pure oxygen levels. Reactive oxygen species are partly responsible for the observed
The Forkhead Box f1 (Foxf1) transcriptional factor (previously known as HFH-8 or Freac-1) is expressed in endothelial and smooth muscle cells in the embryonic and adult lung. To assess effects of Foxf1 during lung injury, we used CCl(4) and butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT) injury models. Foxf1(+/-)
Trametes pubescens, white rot fungus, has been used for folk medicine in Asian countries to treat ailments such as cancer and gastrointestinal diseases. This study was initiated to evaluate the in vitro antioxidant, anti-diabetes, anti-dementia, and anti-inflammatory activities of T. pubescens
