It was established that with intraperitoneal introduction of uridine and cytidine their DL50 for mice equals 5100 and 2700 mg/kg, respectively. In doses of 1/27 and 1/50 of DL50 cytidine reduces by 50 per cent the edema of the rat's paw in a dextran-and formaldehyde-induced inflammation, brings down
Since the isolation of Bacillus anthracis exotoxins in the 1960s, the detrimental activity of edema factor (EF) was considered as adenylyl cyclase activity only. Yet the catalytic site of EF was recently shown to accomplish cyclization of cytidine 5'-triphosphate, uridine 5'-triphosphate and inosine
Cyclic adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate (cAMP) and cyclic guanosine 3',5'-monophosphate (cGMP) are second messengers for numerous mammalian cell functions. The natural occurrence and synthesis of a third cyclic nucleotide (cNMP), cyclic cytidine 3',5'-monophosphate (cCMP), is a matter of controversy,
OBJECTIVE
Cytidine 5'-diphosphocholine (CDPC), or citicoline, is a naturally occurring endogenous compound that has been reported to provide neuroprotective effects after experimental cerebral ischemia. However, in no study has such protection been shown after traumatic brain injury (TBI). In this
CDP-choline, supplied exogenously as citicoline, has beneficial physiological actions on cellular function that have been extensively studied and characterized in numerous model systems. As the product of the rate-limiting step in the synthesis of phosphatidylcholine from choline, CDP-choline and
OBJECTIVE
Taglisodog-eum (Tuo Li Xiao Du Yin), a standardized herbal formula, has been widely used to modulate diverse carbuncles in oriental medicine. However, it is still unclear whether Taglisodog-eum (TSE) can exert a beneficial role in dermatological disease. In this study, we examined the
Acute experimental pancreatitis was induced by retrograde injection of 0.15 ml of 0.8% lysolecithin into the pancreatic duct of Wistar rats. This procedure was always followed by severe necrosis of pancreatic parenchyma, bloody ascites and numerous fat necroses in the abdominal cavity.
Stroke is a medical emergency with a mortality rate higher than most forms of cancer. It is the second leading cause of death in developed countries and the most common cause of serious, long-term disability in adults.Primary intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is a major clinical problem that accounts
This study investigated the neuroprotection provided by cytidine 5'-diphosphocholine (citicoline) during interrupted and uninterrupted occlusion of the basilar artery after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) in 121 hypotensive rats. Animals were anesthetized and the basilar artery was exposed through a
BACKGROUND
CDP-choline (citicholine; cytidine-5'-diphosphate choline) is an endogenously produced nucleotide which, when injected intracerebroventricularly, exerts an antinociceptive effect in acute pain models mediated by central cholinergic mechanisms and alpha7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptors
Cytidine 5'-diphosphocholine, CDP-choline, or citicoline is an essential intermediate in the biosynthetic pathway of structural phospholipids in cell membranes, particularly phosphatidylcholine. Following administration by both the oral and parenteral routes, citicoline releases its two main
Cytidine 5'-diphosphocholine, CDP-choline or citicoline, is an essential intermediate in the biosynthetic pathway of the structural phospholipids of cell membranes, especially in that of phosphatidylcholine. Upon oral or parenteral administration, CDP-choline releases its two principle components,
BACKGROUND
This Phase-I-study aimed to determine the recommended Phase-II-dosing-schedule of LY2334737, an oral gemcitabine prodrug, in patients with advanced/metastatic solid tumors. Pharmacokinetics, cytokeratin-18 (CK18) levels, genetic polymorphisms, and antitumor activity were additionally
OBJECTIVE
Citicoline sodium (cytidine-5'-diphosphocholine) has been shown previously to reduce ischemic injury in focal central nervous system models. Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) appears to be associated with an area of edema and ischemic injury surrounding the hematoma that may be reduced by
