diphenylamine/necrosis

The renal papillotoxicity of diphenylamine dissolved in dimethylsulphoxide (DMSO) was investigated in male Syrian hamsters, male Sprague-Dawley rats and female Mongolian gerbils. When diphenylamine in DMSO was administered orally to male Syrian hamsters (400, 600 or 800 mg/kg body weight/day for up

The ultrastructural lesions of diphenylamine-induced renal papillary necrosis in Syrian hamsters were characterized by transmission electron microscopy. Twenty-four male Syrian hamsters were orally administered 600 mg diphenylamine/kg body weight as a single dose. At 30 minutes and at 1, 2, 4, 8, 16

The nephrotoxicity of diphenylamine, the parent compound of the mefenamate family of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, was evaluated in male Syrian hamsters, male Sprague-Dawley rats, and male Mongolian gerbils. Total renal papillary necrosis was observed in four of ten, seven of ten, and six of

It has been recently described that some non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are able to induce the shedding of L-selectin in neutrophils, an adhesion molecule that plays an essential role in the inflammatory response. We have found that, according to this capability, NSAIDs could be

A twenty-eight day repeated dose toxicity test of diphenylamine (DPA) was carried out in male and female F344 rats at dose levels of 1000, 333, 111 or 0 mg/kg/day. Thirty-six animals of both sexes were divided into 6 groups of equal number, 4 groups being used for the 28 days dosing study and the

The effect of diphenylamine on renal cortical, outer medullary and inner medullary glutathione (GSH) concentrations and the effect of GSH depletion on the nephrotoxicity of diphenylamine were investigated in male Syrian hamsters. A dose-dependent decrease in renal cortical GSH was observed within 1

Superficial scald is a physiological disorder of apple fruit characterized by sunken, necrotic lesions appearing after prolonged cold storage, although initial injury occurs much earlier in the storage period. To determine the degree to which the transition to cell death is an active process and

BACKGROUND Tumor-necrosis factor related to apoptosis inducing ligand protein(TRAIL), like tumor-necrosis factor (TNF) and Fas, is a member of TNF cytokine supper family. Many researches have showed that TNF-α can reverse the resistance to some chemotherapeutic agents in cancer cell lines, and some

Mesangial cells undergo cell death both by apoptosis and necrosis during glomerular disease. Since nucleotides are released from injured and destroyed cells in the glomerulus, we examined whether extracellular ATP and its receptors may regulate cell death of cultured mesangial cells. Addition of

The transition from cold storage to ambient temperature alters apple quality through accelerated softening, flavor and color changes, and development of physiological peel disorders, such as superficial scald, in susceptible cultivars. To reveal global metabolism associated with this transition, the

OBJECTIVE To investigate the biocompatibility of human gastric carcinoma cells (SGC-7901) with organic two-photon nanoparticles (NPs). RESULTS Different concentrations of NPs were incubated with SGC-7901 cells for different times. The levels of cell apoptosis, reactive oxygen species (ROS),

Apoptosis was evaluated by characteristic morphological changes of cells in preparations stained with histological dyes and in live preparations, as well as by DNA degradation, colorimetrically detected with the use of the diphenylamine reagent. "Mouse toxin" (MT) was found to have a pronounced

The use of polarized salivary gland cell monolayers has contributed to our understanding of salivary gland physiology. However, these cell models are not representative of glandular epithelium in vivo, and, therefore, are not ideal for investigating salivary epithelial functions. The current study

Sialic acid (SA), a family of acetylated derivatives of neuraminic acid, an acute phase reactant by itself. It usually occurs as a terminal component at the non-reducing end of carbohydrate chains of glycoproteins and glycolipids. SA participates in multiple physiological functions, such as

Nitric oxide has been shown to be an important factor in the regulation of apoptosis in mesangial cells. The following studies were conducted to determine whether L-arginine, the metabolic precursor of nitric oxide synthesis, directly modulates programmed cell death in response to a variety of
