allantoin/inflammation

BACKGROUND Reducing post-interventional inflammation and pain in odontostomatological surgery procedures, such as tooth extractions, implants or oral biopsies is a relevant clinical goal. Chlorhexidine oral rinse is commonly used with this aim. Recently a new product containing chlorhexidine,

Asthma is characterized by difficulty in breathing because of the constriction of the smooth muscles of the bronchi, as a result of inflammation. In the present study, we focus on the protective effects of allantoin against ovalbumin (OVA)-induced lung inflammation in a murine allergic model, and

BACKGROUND The leaves and stems bark of Memora nodosa (Silva Manso) Miers (Bignoniaceae) are used in Brazilian traditional medicine in the treatment of external ulcers and wounds; its roots are used to treat abdominal pain and scabies. OBJECTIVE Our aim was to evaluate the antinociceptive and

Background: The aim of this study was to evaluate and compare the postoperative effect of a topic gel containing chlorhexidine, chitosan, allantoine and dexpanthenol versus a placebo for pain and inflammation control after third molar

Local application of a heparin-allantoin-dexpanthenol (Hepathrombin-Adenylchemie) ointment to rats 15 min prior to induction of a passive cutaneous anaphylaxis (PCA) reaction inhibits the anaphylactic reaction as compared to the ointment base. Also, the Evans Blue content as a measure for vascular

Allantoin is the main product of uric acid oxidation and was found to be augmented in atherosclerotic plaque in human autopsy and in animal models of atherosclerosis. Uric acid is abundant in human plasma and is prone to oxidation in inflammatory conditions such as atherosclerosis. In this study, we

Urate is largely excluded from the brain under non-inflammatory conditions (concentration gradient serum:CSF about 10:1), but increases markedly in Guillain-Barré Syndrome and bacterial meningitis. The oxidation product allantoin is normally not passively distributed between blood and cerebrospinal

:Machaerium hirtum (Vell.) Stellfeld (Fabaceae) known in Brazil as "jacaranda de espinho" or "espinheira santa nativa" is a medicinal plant commonly used in folk medicine to treat ulcers, cough and diarrhea. This study aimed to investigate the anti-inflammatory and

Allantoin is contained in Nelumbo nucifera (lotus) and a well-known cosmetic ingredient reported to have anti-oxidative and anti-inflammatory activities. In the present study, we investigated whether allantoin affects cognitive function in mice. The subchronic administration of allantoin (1, 3 or 10

OBJECTIVE Epidural fibrosis following a laminectomy procedure is a serious problem that results in failed back surgery syndrome. Aserious number of manuscripts have explained its possible mechanism and results but no effective preventive surgical technique or treatment is currently

In order to study the effect of active additives in toothpastes, three different toothpastes were tested in 60 persons for a period of four weeks. The toothpastes used contained allantoin, pyridyl carbinol, alpha-tocopherol, potassium aluminum sulfate, and tartaric acid. In addition, a control paste

Urate and myeloperoxidase (MPO) are associated with adverse outcomes in cardiovascular disease. In this study, we assessed whether urate is a likely physiological substrate for MPO and if the products of their interaction have the potential to exacerbate inflammation. Urate was readily oxidized by

Germinal matrix intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) is the most common type of intracranial hemorrhage observed in preterm neonates. It is a precursor of poor neurocognitive development, cerebral palsy, and death. The pathophysiology is not well defined, but damage to the fragile germinal matrix

Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), which are globally prescribed, exhibit mainly anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects but also can cause adverse effects including gastrointestinal erosions, ulceration, bleeding, and perforation. The purpose of this study was to investigate surrogate
