Spinal cord injury (SCI) causes permanent changes in motor, sensory, and autonomic functions. Unfortunately, there are no stable cures and current treatments include surgical decompression, methylprednisolone, and hemodynamic control that lead to modest function recovery. Fumaric acid esters (FAEs)
24 days after starting treatment of psoriasis with fumaric acid derivatives (0.8-1.0 g orally, plus unknown quantities locally) a 21-year-old woman developed acute oliguric renal failure with a rise of serum creatinine levels to 1094 mumol/l (12.4 mg/dl). Deterioration of renal function had been
Interrelationship between mitochondria and myoglobin function influence beef color. NADH level in postmortem muscle is an important determinant of mitochondrial activity and metmyoglobin reduction. Increased aging time promotes discoloration of steaks; however, the mechanism of this effect is not
Fumaric aciduria is a rare autosomal recessive metabolic disease which is characterized with excessive fumaric acid exretion in urine. In the prenatal period, polyhydramniosis, intrauterine growth retardation, enlarged brain ventricles and brain anomalies are observed. Growth and development
A 12 week old female Labrador retriever dog with signs of progressive diffuse degeneration of the brain and spinal cord was found to have methylmalonic and malonic aciduria. Over a 5 month period, the dog developed neurologic signs compatible with disease of the central nervous system with
Oleic and malonic acids were found in control samples while p-nitroaniline addition induced production of tricarballylic acid in eight and twelve days exposed samples. Fumaric and citric acids were found in sporadic instances. Addition of p-phenylene diamine to the mixture showed a degeneration
Fumaric aciduria is a rare, autosomal recessive disorder caused by deficient activity of fumarate hydratase (FH). Common clinical features are hypotonia, failure to thrive, severe psychomotor retardation and seizures. Facial dysmorphism and brain malformations are frequent. Recently, some FH gene
We describe two patients who developed acute renal failure during therapy with fumaric acid-esters. Histologic findings after renal biopsy in one patient were compatible with the diagnosis of acute tubular necrosis (ATN), and renal function was restored after cessation of the medication. The
A 42-year-old woman had a 10-year history of external ophthalmoplegia, malabsorption resulting in chronic malnutrition, muscle atrophy and polyneuropathy. Computer tomography revealed hypodensity of her cerebral white matter. A metabolic disturbance consisted of lactic acidosis after moderate
To investigate the effects of 5-hydroxy-1-methylhydantoin (HMH) on kidney injury induced by paraquat (PQ).Fifteen SPF healthy Kunming mice were randomly divided into normal saline (NS) control group, PQ poisoning model group and HMH intervention group, with Importance: Treating older adults with psoriasis can be challenging owing to comorbidities, concomitant medication use, and consequent safety risks. Although many studies focus on the effectiveness and safety of systemic antipsoriatic
BACKGROUND
Retinal ischemia results in neuronal degeneration and contributes to the pathogenesis of multiple blinding diseases. Recently, the fumaric acid ester dimethyl fumarate (DMF) has been FDA-approved for the treatment of multiple sclerosis, based on its neuroprotective and anti-inflammatory
Like Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), the Golden Retriever Muscular Dystrophy (GRMD) dog model of DMD is characterized by muscle necrosis, progressive paralysis, and pseudohypertrophy in specific skeletal muscles. This severe GRMD phenotype includes moderate atrophy of the biceps femoris (BF) as
Neurodegenerative diseases (NDs) represents debilitating conditions characterized by degeneration of neuronal cells in specific brain areas, causing disability and death in patients. In the pathophysiology of NDs, oxidative stress, apoptosis and neuroinflammation have a key role, as demonstrated by
