OBJECTIVE
The aim of the present work was to study the anti-inflammatory and anti-arthritic activities of petroleum ether extract of fenugreek seeds.
METHODS
Fenugreek seed powder was extracted in petroleum ether by cold maceration. This fenugreek seed petroleum ether extract (FSPEE) was analyzed by
Twelve substituted benzylidenes were evaluated for antiinflammatory activity against carrageenin-induced edema in rats. The protection afforded by these compounds at a dose of 100 mg/kg, i.p., ranged from 30 to 60%. Sodium salicylate (100 mg/kg, i.p.), used as a reference drug, exhibited a 30%
The treatment of metastatic cancer with interleukin-2 (IL-2) is limited by systemic toxicities, including hepatic dysfunction. The objective of this study was to determine the cellular mechanisms of IL-2-induced hepatic injury. Intravital microscopy was used for the direct observation of the murine
In one multicenter, double-blind study, 659 hypertensive patients were treated for 16 weeks with either nilvadipine (n = 326) or nifedipine (n = 333). The major objective of the study was to compare the compatibility of the two calcium antagonists with regard to hepatic compatibility and side-effect
Data on the clinical profile, echocardiographic findings, and outcome of acute fulminant myocarditis (AFM) in children from resource limited countries are limited. To study the clinical profile and short-term outcomes of children aged 2 months to 17 years with AFM managed with only supportive care.
The aim of this study was to investigate whether exogenous reduced glutathione (GSH) could protect liver injury induced by methyl parathion. Rats were allocated into four groups named as control, MP (methyl parathion poisoning), MP+GSH1 (methyl parathion poisoning treated with GSH 600 mg/kg), and
BACKGROUND
Meconopsis integrifolia (Maxim.) Franch is a high mountain endemic species used as a traditional Tibetan and Mongolian herb to treat hepatitis, pneumonia, and edema. This study aims to investigate the hepatoprotective and antioxidant effects of Meconopsis integrifolia ethanolic extract
Peh-hue-juwa-chi-cao (PHJCC) is a common commercial name for the herbal extract of either Hedyotis diffusa (HD), H. corymbosa (HC), or Mollugo pentaphylla (MP). The present study was carried out to investigate the anti-inflammatory and hepatoprotective effects of these three extracts in rats. The
Kawasaki's disease is a disease of unknown cause. The characteristic clinical features of Kawasaki's disease are fever> or =102 degrees F for> or =5 days accompanied by a bilateral bulbar conjunctivitis/conjunctival suffusion, erythematous rash, cervical adenopathy, pharyngeal erythema, and swelling
In previous studies, we have shown that by increasing the brain-to-blood glutamate efflux upon scavenging blood glutamate with either oxaloacetate or pyruvate, one achieves highly significant neuroprotection particularly in the context of traumatic brain injury. The current study examines, for the
