acetylsalicylic acid/necrosis

Tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) has been shown to be selective in the induction of apoptosis in cancer cells with minimal toxicity to normal tissues. However, not all cancers are sensitive to TRAIL-mediated apoptosis. Thus, TRAIL-resistant cancer cells must be

We have investigated the effects of acetylsalicylic acid and sodium salicylate on the LPS-induced synthesis of the pro-coagulant protein tissue factor (TF) and the pro-inflammatory protein tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha), as well as the prostaglandin PGE2 in human monocytes. Both drugs

D-003 is a mixture of high-molecular-weight aliphatic primary acids purified from sugar cane wax with antiplatelet and cholesterol-lowering effects. Cardiac lesions induced by isoproterenol (ISO) are characterized by myocardial necrosis and exudative infiltration. The objective of this study was to

The effects of several inhibitors of arachidonic acid metabolism on gastric necrosis, hypotension, haemoconcentration, leukopenia and plasma exudation induced by platelet-activating factor (Paf) were studied in the rat. A 10 min intravenous infusion of Paf (100 ng kg-1 min-1) caused extensive

Critical limb ischemia (CLI) with distal leg necrosis in lung transplant recipients (LTR) is associated with a high risk for systemic infection and sepsis. Optimal management of CLI has not been defined so far in LTR. In immunocompetent individuals with leg necrosis, surgical amputation would be

The aim of the study was to evaluate the biological response of human Schwann cells (SC) to tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFalpha) in vitro and to the inflammatory milieu of chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuritis (CIDP). By immunocytochemical and functional assays, we found that SC

BACKGROUND Apomorphine is a specific dopaminergic agonist used in the treatment of severe fluctuations of Parkinson's disease, particularly in patients on L-dopa. The drug is usually given subcutaneously, either as several daily injections or via a continuous subcutaneous delivery system. We

The effect on rat gastric mucosa of ethanol and acetylsalicylic acid given at two doses singly or in combination were studied by administering the drugs into the stomach. 40% ethanol alone caused many ulcerations after 5 h, and the effect was even more marked with simultaneous administration of

Recombinant human (h) and murine (m) tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha stimulated bone resorption and the production of prostaglandin (PG) E2 in neonatal mouse calvaria in organ culture. In experiments of 72-h duration, the effect on bone resorption was of large magnitude (an average increase in

Recombinant tumor necrosis factor (TNF), epidermal growth factor (EGF), and transforming growth factor beta (TGF-beta) stimulated growth of confluent human diploid fibroblasts (FS-4 cells) in the presence of fetal calf serum. TGF-beta synergistically enhanced both the TNF- and EGF-stimulated cell

The influence of ascorbic acid (CAS 50-81-7), acetylsalicylic acid (CAS 50-78-2) and ibuprofen (CAS 15687-27-1) on macrophages of C57BL/6 mice was investigated in vitro. It has been shown that ascorbic acid or acetylsalicylic acid alone did not stimulate or inhibit the production of interleukin-6,

It appeared that acetylsalicylic acid considerably decreased both development of the infarction-like foci of necrosis and primary damage of the myocardial cells experimentally induced in animals by direct action of novodrin and expressed in the course of the first hour. This led to the supposition

OBJECTIVE To analyze the role of acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) in immunomodulation of mesenchymal stem cells derived from gingiva (GMSCs), and to explore the role of ASA in enhancing the immumomodulation of GMSCs and the capacity of GMSCs to treat immune disorders and the underlying

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the relevance of adding acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) in primary prevention in subjects with type 2 diabetes mellitus. METHODS 213 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and hypertension were randomized to amlodipine 5 mg, or amlodipine 5 mg + ASA 100 mg for 3 months (Phase A);

BACKGROUND Type 2 diabetes (T2DM) patients are at increased risk of cardiovascular events despite long-term acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) therapy. This study was performed to establish the prevalence of high platelet reactivity (HPR) on ASA in T2DM and to identify its predictors. METHODS The study
