BACKGROUND
In vitro, synthetic dialysis membranes induce less activation of blood components to produce pro-inflammatory cytokines and reactive oxygen species compared with cellulose acetate membranes. However, the long-term effect of switching from a cellulose-based dialysis membrane to a synthetic
This study reports the results of the characterization of cellulose acetate butyrate and polycaprolactone-triol blends in terms of miscibility, swelling capacity, mechanical properties, and inflammatory response in vivo. The cellulose acetate butyrate film was opaque and rigid, with glass transition
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the participation of proinflammatory cytokines in the acute phase of corneal wound-healing response after excimer laser treatment.
METHODS
The study included 68 myopic eyes up to -3.0 diopters divided into two groups: 1) eyes treated with laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK)
BACKGROUND
During recent years, there has been growing interest in use of topical vehicle systems to assist in drug permeation through the skin. Drugs of interest are usually those that are problematic when given orally, such as piroxicam, a highly effective anti-inflammatory, anti-pyretic, and
METHODS
Experimental study.
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the efficacy and safety of peridural parecoxib-soaked absorbable gelatin sponge, and cellulose membrane on peridural fibrosis prevention in an animal model.
BACKGROUND
Postoperative peridural fibrosis is one of the causes of failed back surgery
Herein, we report novel macromolecular prodrugs (MPDs) of flurbiprofen (FLB) onto a cellulose ether, hydroxypropylcellulose (HPC). The FLB was activated with a powerful acylation reagent carbonyldiimadazole (CDI) in N,N' dimethylacetamide (DMAc) solvent at room temperature. Imidazolide of FLB
The most successful treatment strategy for arthritis is intra-articular injections that are costly and have reduced patient compliance. The purpose of the current study was to develop an inflammation-sensitive system for topical drug administration. Multi-macromolecular alginate-hyaluronic
Hemodialysis (HD) with the use of vitamin E-coated membrane (VEM) dialyzers is shown to exert anti-inflammatory and antioxidative effects in patients with end-stage renal disease on HD. However, the association of baseline inflammatory status with the antioxidative effects of VEM has not been
Jet-milling as the common way for micronization of drugs shows several disadvantages. Drug powder properties are decisive for pulmonary use because, besides a small particle size, a good deagglomeration behavior is required. In this study, several anti-inflammatory drugs
BACKGROUND
The potential of cereals with high antioxidant capacity for reducing oxidative stress and inflammation in obesity is unknown. This study investigated the impact of wheat bran, barley or a control diet (α-cellulose) on the development of oxidative stress and inflammation in lean and obese
OBJECTIVE
To evaluate biocompatibility of a cellulosic exopolysaccharide (CEC) as bulking agent in rabbit urinary bladder.
METHODS
The experimental study was developed at the Nucleus for Experimental Surgery or UFPE. The new agent was injected into the bladder of the adult rabbits using a small
The objective of this study was to evaluate if the biologic membrane utilized for GTR can be impregnated by tetracycline hydrochloride and if the chemotherapeutic agent, once impregnated, can be released in minimal inhibitory concentrations for a period compatible with clinical application.
Cellulose nanofibers (CNFs) are an emerging engineered nanomaterial that are utilized in a variety of applications, including as a replacement for urea-formaldehyde, and other adhesives, as the binding agent in manufactured fiber and particle boards. To ensure the health and well-being of those
BACKGROUND
The aim of this study was to compare three different methods to cover excised burn wounds in a randomized controlled trial.
METHODS
Fascially excised burn wounds, measuring 10 cm × 5 cm, were covered with Integra(®), split thickness skin graft (STSG), and a viscose cellulose sponge
We conducted an experiment to investigate the effectiveness of bacterial cellulose, a new graft material, in correcting and preventing dorsal nasal disorder in rhinoplasty. The experiment was performed on 20 Wistar albino rats. The rats were evenly divided into two groups: a fascia group and a
