The anti-inflammatory activity of alpha-viniferin, a trimer of resveratrol, has been demonstrated in an animal model of carrageenin-induced paw edema, and inhibitory effects of the compound on cyclooxygenase (COX) and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) have been investigated in order to
Inflammation derived from macrophages activation leads to various diseases. Synthetic modifications of resveratrol have been shown to have better anti-inflammatory activities. In this study, croton oil-induced mouse ear edema and lipopolysaccharides (LPS)-stimulated RAW264.7 macrophages were used to
Hyperoxic lung injury is enhanced in isolated perfused lungs (IPL) in the presence of L-arginine. Reactive O2 species such as superoxide anion (O2-.) produced during hyperoxia are known to react with nitric oxide to form the strong oxidant species peroxynitrite. The appearance of O2-. in red blood
OBJECTIVE
The purpose of this study was to examine protective and antioxidative effect of stilbene derivatives, resveratrol and diethylstilbestrol, in experimental acute pancreatitis (EAP).
METHODS
EAP was induced in male Wistar rats by retrograde injection of tert-butyl hydroperoxide (ButOOH)
In Ménière's disease, an inner ear disorder related to an endolymphatic hydrops, an alteration of the functioning of the endolymphatic sac has been proposed. The endolymphatic sac is assumed to be involved in the secretion/resorption of endolymph. The epithelial transport systems have been
In recent years, the fruits of native Brazilian plant species with anti-inflammatory property have gained prominence due to their properties comparable to traditional medicines. This study aimed to chemically characterize and evaluate the anti-inflammatory and antihyperalgesic activity of Byrsonima
We have developed a model of reperfusion injury in Krebs buffer-perfused rabbit lungs, characterized by pulmonary vasoconstriction, microvascular injury, and marked lung edema formation. During reperfusion there was a threefold increase in lung superoxide anion (O2-) production, as measured by in
Swelling of astrocytes represents a major component of the brain edema associated with many neurological conditions, including acute hepatic encephalopathy (AHE), traumatic brain injury (TBI) and ischemia. It has previously been reported that exposure of cultured astrocytes to ammonia (a factor
Mutations in the electrogenic Na+/nHCO3- cotransporter (NBCe1, SLC4A4) cause severe proximal renal tubular acidosis, glaucoma, and cataracts in humans, indicating NBCe1 has a critical role in acid-base homeostasis and ocular fluid transport. To better understand the homeostatic roles and protein
Astrocyte-mediated inflammation and oxidative stress elicit cerebral ischemia-reperfusion (IR) injury after stroke. Nuclear factor (NF)-κB activates astrocytes and generates pro-inflammatory factors. The purpose of the present study is to elucidate the effect of pterostilbene (PTE, a natural
