A cream, Unguentum lymphaticum, which has been shown to be effective (clinically and experimentally) in lymphedema, was tested in dextran and burn edemas and acute lymphedema in rats. It was very effective indeed in lymphedema, completely preventing the 36% increase in the volumes of the legs found
Calcium dobesilate ("Doxium", O.M. Laboratories, Geneva) was tested in two high-protein edemas. While at a high dose level it had no effect on burn edema of the ratfoot, it did at a low dose. It greatly reduced (to 26%) acute lymphedema in the rat thigh (although not in the foot). Electron
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the effects of schisandrin B (Sch-B) on expression of transforming growth factor-beta1 (TGF-beta1) and signal transduction molecule mRNA in rat lungs exposed to SiO2, and explore the intervention mechanism of Sch-B on pulmonary fibrosis induced by SiO2.
METHODS
Ninety six
Microgravimetric methods are very useful for quantitative studies on brain edema. One of the techniques available is based on a gradient made up by NaCl and polyvinyl pyrrolidone-coated silica particles (Percoll). The present study was performed to find a way of minimizing fluid shifts between the
The safety evaluation of silica nanoparticles (SiNPs) are getting great attention due to its widely-used in food sciences, chemical industry and biomedicine. However, the adverse effect and underlying mechanisms of SiNPs on cardiovascular system, especially on angiogenesis is still unclear. This
The growing use of silica nanoparticles (SiNPs) in many fields raises human toxicity concerns. We studied the toxicity of SiNP-20 (particle diameter 20 nm) and SiNP-100 (100 nm) and the underlying mechanisms with a focus on the endothelium both in vitro and in Given the severe situation of world-wide particulate matter air pollution, it is urgent to explore the combined effects of particulate matter components on cardiovascular system. Using zebrafish model, this study was aimed to determine whether the low level co-exposure to silica nanoparticles
Fifty-nine canine lungs were perfused with cryoprecipitated plasma, silica gel fraction, or modified silica gel fraction (MSGF) af different perfusate pressures for periods up to 24 hours under hypothermic conditions. High perfusate pressures accounted for all poor perfusion results. The use of MSGF
Increasing environmental exposure to silica nanoparticles (SiNPs) and limited cardiotoxicity studies posed a challenge for the safety evaluation and management of these materials. This study aimed to explore the adverse effects and underlying mechanisms of subacute exposure to SiNPs on cardiac
Objective: To investigate the effect of silica dust on protein oxidative injury in the lung tissue of mice. Methods: A total of 60 mice were randomly divided into control group (not exposed to dust) , 2-hour group (inhalation of dust for 2 hours per day) , 4-hour group (inhalation of dust for 4
The released nanoparticles into environment can potentially interact with pre-existing pollution, maybe causing higher toxicity. As such, assessment of their joint toxic effects is necessary. This study was to investigate the co-exposure cardiac toxicity of silica nanoparticles (SiNPs) and
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the pharmacological effect of Nyctanthes arbortristis (NAT) leaf extract in the prevention of lung injury induced by silica particles.
METHODS
Lung injury was induced in Swiss mice through inhalation exposure to silica particles (< 5 mu) using a Flow Past Nose Only
A method is presented by which density measurements can be performed on samples from cerebral cortex and white matter of normal and intoxicated animals using nontoxic ingredients as an alternative to the bromobenzene-kerosene technique described by Nelson et al. (1971). A continuous density gradient
Silica nanoparticles (SiNPs) have been widely used in biomedical and biotechnological applications. Environmental exposure to nanomaterials is inevitable as they become part of our daily life. Therefore, it is necessary to investigate the possible toxic effects of SiNPs exposure. In this study,
Background: Combating infectious diseases caused by influenza virus is a major challenge due to its resistance to available drugs and vaccines, side effects, and cost of treatment. Nanomedicines are being developed to allow targeted
