BACKGROUND
The preparations of teas and syrups using Duguetia furfuracea have been used in folk medicine to treat rheumatism and back pain. Several rheumatic diseases are anti-inflammatory and are treated with several anti-inflammatories.
OBJECTIVE
The objective of this work were to evaluate the
OBJECTIVE
The reason for increased cardiovascular risk in inflammatory arthritis (IA) is unclear. Interestingly, selenium-deficiency is suspected to contribute to the development of cardiovascular disease (CVD) in the general population. Although the reference range of serum selenium (s-selenium) is
Anti-inflammatory properties of Populus tremula are mainly deduced from its components, the well investigated salicylates. Solidago extracts have spasmolytic, antihypertensive and diuretic effects. Fraxinus excelsior itself has hardly been investigated, but its coumarin components proved to have a
In the course of our study aimed at developing new types of DMARDs (disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs), we found that quinoline derivative 1a had a potent anti-inflammatory effect in an adjuvant arthritis (AA) rat model, starting from the potent bone resorption inhibitors justicidins as the lead
Ethnopharmacological relevance: Flourensia fiebrigii is a plant used in traditional medicine in the Argentine Calchaquí Valley as purgative, expectorant, anti-rheumatic and anti-inflammatory.
Aim of the
We have examined the effects of anti-inflammatory and anti-rheumatic drugs on membrane-bound and purified Na+/K+-ATPase activity in vitro. Only the gold-containing compounds (gold sodium thiomalate and auranofin) were found to inhibit the enzyme activity in a dose-dependent manner. Sodium thiomalate
Increasingly, methotrexate (MTX) and sulphasalazine (SASP) are used initially for second-line therapy of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Although SASP and MTX are commonly used, the mechanism(s) by which these drugs control the inflammation that characterizes RA have remained obscure. Results from my
OBJECTIVE
To determine the effects of anti-inflammatory and anti-rheumatic drugs on paw swelling and changes in plasma levels of acute phase proteins (APPs) during acute inflammation in the rat.
METHODS
Inflammation was induced in rats by the injection of adjuvant and the animals were bled five days
During the course of adjuvant arthritis in rats adherent spleen cells inhibited the response of spleen lymphocytes to the T-cell mitogen concanavalin A (Con A). The effects of 14 days treatment with various antirheumatic drugs on spleen cell responsiveness to Con A were investigated. Two
The syntheses and anti-inflammatory activities of novel thieno[2,3-b]pyridine and thieno[2,3-b:5,4-c']-dipyridine derivatives are described. These compounds were designed by modification of the quinoline template of a new type of disease-modifying antirheumatic drug (DMARD), TAK-603, and prepared by
The authors studied various drugs with anti-inflammatory or antirheumatic properties on pleurisy due to Bordetella pertussis hypersensitivity in the rat. The following compounds were studies according to various methods of treatment: indomethacin, phenylbutazone, cyclophosphamide, desonide,
OBJECTIVE
To compare the clinical and functional outcome at 2 and 5 years in patients with inflammatory polyarthritis treated with either methotrexate (MTX) or sulfasalazine (SSZ) as the first disease-modifying antirheumatic drug (DMARD).
METHODS
Patients recruited to a primary-care-based inception
OBJECTIVE
To assess the safety and efficacy of combination therapy in recent-onset rheumatoid arthritis (RA), with dose adjustments determined by response, in a clinic setting over 3 years.
METHODS
Disease-modifying antirheumatic drug (DMARD)-naive patients with RA of median duration of 12 weeks (n
Four new derivatives of hydrocortisone, each containing in common a methyl grouping at the 16a-carbon position of the steroid molecule, have been synthesized and are being studied in human subjects. The compounds are 16a-methyl 9a-fluoroprednisolone (MK-125: hexadecadrol), 16a-methyl
BACKGROUND
Our objective was to evaluate the effect of background biological disease-modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (bDMARDs) and/or corticosteroids (CS) on response to nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients.
METHODS
The following efficacy endpoints were
