OBJECTIVE
The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate (PDTC), a nuclear factor (NF)-kappaB inhibitor, on cytokine expression and suppression of anterior chamber inflammation in experimental autoimmune anterior uveitis. Uveitis was induced in the Lewis rats
OBJECTIVE
The nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-kappaB) is a transcription factor that plays a pivotal role in the induction of genes involved in physiological processes and in the response to inflammation. The authors of recent studies have demonstrated that NF-kappaB and oxidative stress contribute to
It has been well established that neuroinflammation is involved in Alzheimer disease (AD) pathogenesis. Accumulation and aggregation of beta-amyloid (Abeta) peptide in the brains of patients with AD result in activation of glial cells which, in turn, initiates neuroinflammatory responses that
To evaluate the efficacy and tolerability of the new diclofenac-N-(2-hydroxyethyl)-pyrrolidine lecithin gel (DHEP lecithin gel, with 1.3% DHEP and 2.4% lecithin) compared with the efficacy and tolerability of diclofenac-N-(2-hydroxyethyl)-pyrrolidine gel (DHEP gel) in peri and extraarticular
To analyze the immunomodulatory effect of pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate (PDTC) on the endotoxin (LPS) stimulated inflammatory response, we measured the LPS-stimulated cytokine and NO production in murine peritoneal macrophages, J774A.1 cells and human whole blood in the presence of PDTC (60 microM).
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the effect of pyrrolidine dithio-carbamate (PDTC; an NF-kappaB inhibitor) administered at low (50 mg/kg) and high (100 mg/kg) doses in suppressing colitis in mice with dextran sodium sulfate (DSS)-induced colitis.
METHODS
Mice were divided into a DSS-untreated group (normal
Brain injury due to birth asphyxia is the major cause of death and long-term disabilities in newborns. We determined whether intranasal pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate (PDTC) could provide neuroprotection in neonatal rats after brain hypoxia-ischemia (HI). Seven-day old male and female Sprague-Dawley
OBJECTIVE
The roles of toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) and nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) in peri-implantitis are unclear. Here, we used a canine model of peri-implantitis to explore the effects of inhibiting NF-κB with pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate (PDTC) on the inflammatory response in ligature-induced
Inhaled corticosteroids (ICSs) represent the first line therapy for the treatment of asthma and are also extensively utilized in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Our goal was to develop a new ICS with a basic group, which can allow solid state feature modulation, achieving at the same time
Endothelial cells (EC) play a key role in the inflammatory response, both by the production of proinflammatory cytokines and by their interaction with leukocytes. Molecular genetic analysis has demonstrated that functional NF-kappa B sites are involved in the transcription of interleukin-6 (IL-6),
Pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate (PDTC) is a thiol compound that elicits anti-inflammatory effects by inhibiting NF-κB signaling. In this study, we report that regulator of calcineurin activity 1 (RCAN1) expression is induced by PDTC treatment and that increased RCAN1 expression is dependent on the
Ultraviolet B (UVB) irradiation may cause oxidative stress- and inflammation-dependent skin cancer and premature aging. Pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate (PDTC) is an antioxidant and inhibits nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) activation. In the present study, the mechanisms of PDTC were investigated in cell free
The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of specific NF-kappaB inhibitor pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate (PDTC) on inflammatory response and cardiac function in a rat model of coronary microembolization (CME). CME was developed by injecting a suspension of microthrombotic particles (MTPs)
Pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate (PDTC) is known to exert anti-tumor and anti-inflammatory effects. However, the effects of PDTC against airway inflammation and its underlying mechanisms have not been reported. In the present study, we examined the protective effects of PDTC in a murine model of asthma
(S)-1-((S)-2-{[1-(4-amino-3-chloro-phenyl)-methanoyl]-amino}-3,3-dimethyl-butanoyl)-pyrrolidine-2-carboxylic acid ((2R,3S)-2-ethoxy-5-oxo-tetrahydro-furan-3-yl)-amide (VX-765) is an orally absorbed prodrug of
