Statins are commonly prescribed for the secondary prevention of ischemic stroke, but there is conflicting evidence as to whether they increase the risk of intracranial hemorrhage. Lipophilic statins cross the blood-brain barrier more freely than hydrophilic statins and may therefore increase the
Compared to other methods for the determination of octanol-water partition coefficients chromatography offers a number of advantages: sample purification is unnecessary, the partition coefficients of the components of a mixture can be measured simultaneously and a minimum amount of sample is needed.
The role of gap junctional communication in the coordination of vascular behavior has been well established experimentally. The aim of this study was to investigate whether the gap junctional blockers would inhibit cerebral vasospasm after experimental subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). We used the
Gap junction inhibition has been demonstrated to reverse the vascular contraction that follows experimental subarachnoid hemorrhage. This study hypothesizes that the use of established gap junction inhibitors: octonal and carbenoxolone, to interrupt cell to cell communication will provide
Brominated benzenes appear in the environment and human tissues. Their detection in the environment may be as a result of their usage, e.g. hexabromobenzene (HBB), and as products of HBB degradation or metabolism. The aim of this study was to compare liver impairment in acute intoxication of mice
Binary tree-structured statistical classification algorithms and properties of 56 model alkyl nucleophiles were brought to bear on two problems of experimental pharmacology and toxicology. Each rat of a learning sample of 745 was administered one compound and autopsied to determine the presence of
Suboptimal gastrointestinal absorption is a problem for many direct thrombin inhibitors. The studies presented herein describe the new oral direct thrombin inhibitor H 376/95, a prodrug with two protecting residues added to the direct thrombin inhibitor melagatran. Absorption properties in vitro: H
One of the most dynamic adult human tissues is the endometrium. Through coordinated, cyclical proliferation, differentiation, leukocyte recruitment, apoptosis, and desquamation, the uterine lining is expanded and shed monthly, unless pregnancy is established. Errors in these steps potentially cause
