mercurialis leiocarpa/neoplasms

Eicosanoid synthesis by alveolar macrophages (AM), harvested from tumor bearing animals, was measured after tumor inoculation in rats treated with or without carrageenan (carra), an immunomodulating agent. After incubation of the cells with [14]C-arachidonic acid and the Ca-ionophore A23187, samples

OBJECTIVE Including cancer survivors in the peer review of cancer-related research is increasingly valued as a strategy for bringing the "patient perspective" to discussions of research merit and human subject protection. Because integrating lay stakeholders into peer review poses challenges, this

BACKGROUND Mercurialis annua L., Bongardia chrysogonum L., and Viscum cruciatum Sieb have been traditionally used by local herbalists in Jordan for the treatment of hematopoietic neoplasms. OBJECTIVE To determine the anti-cancer, anti-inflammatory and anti-microbial potentials of the three extracts

We aimed to identify the (1) demographic/clinical characteristics, (2) medication usage trends, (3) variables associated with worse disease activity, and (4) characteristics of patients with persistent chronic arthritis in the Childhood Arthritis and Rheumatology Research Alliance (CARRA) Legacy

OBJECTIVE To characterize disease-modifying antirheumatic drug (DMARD) use for children with juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) in the United States and to determine patient factors associated with medication use. METHODS We analyzed cross-sectional baseline enrollment data from the Childhood

We live in a culture of evidence-based medicine. Many areas of medicine have embraced this culture. However, for unusual diseases, like the childhood arthritides, there is little evidence. To provide this evidence a culture change must occur in pediatric rheumatology. The most convincing reason to

When male and female individuals of a dioecious species Mercurialis annua L. were inoculated with the same strain of Agrobacterium tumefaciens (15,955), the corresponding tumor tissues of each sex clearly differed in their endogenous cytokinin content; only the male tumors had a morphogenetic

We have systematically observed in the present study the anticarcinogenic and immunomodulatory effects of 4-Seleno-carageenan (Se-carra) as well as their possible mechanisms of actions in vivo and in vitro. It was found that se-carra had inhibitory effects on tumor growth in vivo and in vitro. The

OBJECTIVE To develop standardized treatment regimens for chronic nonbacterial osteomyelitis (CNO), also known as chronic recurrent multifocal osteomyelitis (CRMO), to enable comparative effectiveness treatment studies. METHODS Virtual and face-to-face discussions and meetings were held within the

OBJECTIVE To investigate antibacterial and antitumor activities of 51 different extracts prepared with 3 types of solvents (water, ethanol and methanol) of 16 different plant species (Ajuga reptans (A. reptans) L., Phlomis pungens (P. pungens) Willd., Marrubium astracanicum (M. astracanicum) Jacq.,
