Neutrophil-derived oxygen free radicals have been implicated in the pathogenesis of noncardiogenic pulmonary edema. Fructose-1,6-diphosphate (FDP) has been shown to inhibit oxygen free radicals production by activated neutrophils. Thus, we investigated whether FDP would attenuate formation of
Dexamethasone (Dex, 0.1 mg/kg, s.c.) suppressions of ischemic paw edema in mice at 1, 3, 6, 8, 18 hr were; 2, 22, 12, 11, 7%. Dex suppression in fructose-1,6-diphosphate (FDP, 100 mg/kg, i.p.)-treated mice were; 5, 49, 51, 42, 33%. Suppressions by this dose of FDP alone were less than 10% during
Paraquat (PQ; 1,1'-dimethyl-4,4'-bipyridylium dichloride), a widely used herbicide, causes pulmonary edema by a cyclic oxidation and reduction reaction with oxygen molecules with the production of oxygen free radicals. Because fructose 1,6-diphosphate (FDP) has recently been shown to inhibit the
OBJECTIVE
Febrile seizure (FS) is a pediatric emergency. The reiterative attacks of FS may result in brain damage to various extents. Fructose-1,6-diphosphate, serving as a cellular energy substance, has been applied to clinical practice for many years and has shown its importance in adjuvant
A 36-year-old woman was admitted to the Intensive Care Unit for the treatment of severe asthma exacerbation. Her condition of asthma improved with systemic glucocorticosteroids, inhaled beta2-agonist, intravenous theophylline and inhaled anesthesia (isoflurane) under mechanical ventilation. Her
To investigate free fatty acid levels and histopathological changes in the brain of rats fed a high fructose diet (HFrD) and to evaluate the effects of Mucuna pruriens, known to have antidiabetic activity, on these changes.
The study comprised 28 mature female Wistar rats. The rats were divided into
Nine bilaterally nephrectomized fetal sheep were infused for 6 days with angiotensin I in sterile water, and five nephrectomized fetal sheep were infused for 6 days with water alone. Total dose of angiotensin was 13.8 +/- 8.6 (SD) mg/kg fetal dry wt, and the total volumes of infused water were 303
The effects of physiologic and pharmacologic manipulations on contact lens-induced edema were studied. In isolated superfused rabbit corneas bathed in Ringer's solution and covered with large-diameter polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) lenses, corneal swelling rates of 17-26 microns/hr (versus -5-5
OBJECTIVE
Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors have been associated with an increased risk of acute pancreatitis. The pathogenesis of this condition remains unclear, but an activation of the kinin system and a resultant localized angioedema have been implicated in the initial step leading
BACKGROUND
Infusion of fructose has been shown to stimulate the SER and to reduce the RER in rat liver cells. After feeding fructose of 7 days a glycogenosis of unknown pathogenesis occurs, which was analysed morphometrically.
METHODS
60% fructose in water, was given as drinking water to animals
To determine the effects of glucose and fructose-1,6-bisphosphate (FDP) on hypoxic cell damage, primary cultures of astrocytes were incubated for 18 h in an air-tight chamber that had been flushed with 95% N2/5% CO2 for 15 min before it was sealed. Cultures containing 7.5 mM glucose without FDP or
It has been previously showed that fructose-1,6-bisphosphate (FBP) has anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory effects on several experimental inflammation models. However, the effects and mechanism of FBP on Zymosan-induced acute lung injury (ALI) in mice had not been tested. In this study, our aim
Myocardial edema is divided into cellular edema and interstitial edema; however, the dynamic change of cardiomyocyte edema has not been described in detail. Pigment epithelium‑derived factor (PEDF) is known for its protective effects on ischemic cardiomyocytes; however, the association between PEDF
BACKGROUND
In Asian countries, glycerol solution that contains fructose (5%) is often used for management of brain edema. However, glycerol and fructose may cause severe hypoglycemia and metabolic acidosis in patients with fructose-1,6-bisphosphatase (FBPase) deficiency, even under stable
OBJECTIVE
Intraperitoneal (IP) injection of the solubilized fructose complex of L-p-boronophenylalanine (BPA-F) produced higher boron concentrations in a rat brain tumor model than was possible using intragastric (IG) administration of L-p-boronophenylalanine (BPA). The effectiveness of IP BPA-F was
