OBJECTIVE
Appendectomy for suspected appendicitis cases is a common procedure. Its clinical diagnosis needs to be supported by accurate confirmatory tests. No single paraclinical test with a high degree of sensitivity and specificity is available for its diagnosis. The appendix contains numerous
The chemoattractant receptor-homologous molecule expressed on Th2 cells (CRTH2) receptor, a G protein-coupled receptor that mediates chemotaxis of inflammatory cells in response to prostaglandin D2 (PGD2), is hypothesized to play a role in Th2-mediated allergic disease. In addition to PGD2, CRTH2
Dysmenorrhea, which may be primary or secondary, is the occurrence of painful uterine cramps during menstruation. Until a decade ago, medical and social attitudes toward dysmenorrhea were shrouded with folklore, psychoanalytical profiles, or psychosomatic bases. In secondary dysmenorrhea, there is a
Vitamin D deficiency, common in the population with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), can induce the main factors that lead to IBS clinical symptoms, such as depression, anxiety, and inflammation. Serotonin (5-HT) plays an important role in the pathophysiology of IBS, and its production and secretion
OBJECTIVE
Acute appendicitis (AA) is the most common abdominal emergency. The appendix has abundant serotonin containing cells. Upon inflammation, serotonin is released in the blood and converted into 5-HIAA (5-hydroxy indole acetic acid). Measurement of the urine 5-HIAA (U-5-HIAA) could be a
Aldo-keto reductase (AKR) 1C3 catalyzes the NADPH-dependent reduction of Delta(4)-androstene-3,17-dione to yield testosterone, reduction of estrone to yield 17beta-estradiol and reduction of progesterone to yield 20alpha-hydroxyprogesterone. In addition, it functions as a prostaglandin (PG) F
Several cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk factors have been identified among patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Gut-derived uremic toxins (GDUT) are important modifiable contributors in this respect. There are very few Indian studies on GDUT changes in CKD. One hundred and twenty patients
The largest group of non-narcotic analgesics are the arylalkanoic acid derivatives, comprising derivatives of arylacetic acid, propionic acid, heteraryl acetic acid and indole acetic acid. Common to all of these drugs is their inhibition of prostaglandin biosynthesis, which contributes to their
Huntington's disease (HD) is a neurodegenerative disorder, characterized by progressive motor and non-motor dysfunction due to degeneration of medium spiny neurons in striatum. 3-Nitropropionic acid is commonly used to induce the animal model of HD. Rice bran is supposed to have beneficial effects
Hypochlorous acid (HOCl) released by activated leukocytes has been implicated in the tissue damage that characterizes chronic inflammatory diseases. In this investigation, 14 indole derivatives, including metabolites such as melatonin, tryptophan and indole-3-acetic acid, were screened for their
BACKGROUND
Alcohol is the most widely abused substance and its chronic consumption causes neurobehavioral disorders. It has been shown that alcohol affects the function of immune cells. Dendritic cells (DC) serve as the first line of defense against infections and are known to accumulate
In a four month period in 1992 at a small military wing of a civilian hospital three Meckel's Diverticulae were removed from patients suspected of having complications in their vermiform appendix. One of the diverticulae was inflamed and was the cause of the symptoms. The second was a symptomatic
Peroxidation of endogenous lipid by rat liver microsomes, coupled with oxidation of reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) was markedly stimulated in the presence of indomethacin [1-(p-chlorobenzyl)-5-methoxy-2-methyl-3-indole acetic acid], a potent anti-inflammatory drug. This
Aqueous autolysate from the snake Eryx miliaris (SNA) has been used in traditional medicine of Uzbekistan as anti-inflammatory, hepatoprotective and immunomodulatory agent. However, little is known about the chemical composition and its mechanisms of The relationships between digestive bacterial translocation, uremic toxins, oxidative stress and microinflammation in a population of chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients without metabolic nor inflammatory disease are unknown.Bacterial translocation,
