Rosa rugosa is a species of rose native to eastern Asia. The root of R. rugosa has been used to treat diabetes mellitus, pain and chronic inflammatory disease, and a R. rugosa petal extract has a strong anti-oxidant effect. In the present study, we examined if solvent fractions from white rose petal
The anti-allergic potential of egg white protein hydrolysates (from ovalbumin, lysozyme and ovomucoid) was evaluated as their ability to hinder cytokine and IgE production by Th2-skewed human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs), as well as the release of pro-inflammatory factors and
Monitoring the blood flow of unanesthesized mice was found to be a reliable and effective method for studying their anaphylactic responses, in addition to the known method of monitoring blood pressure. Hen egg-white lysozyme (HEL)-specific anaphylaxis in mice was estimated by monitoring the decrease
We investigated the difference in the influence on 10 allergic factors of 3 anti-allergic drugs: azelastine, tranilast, ketotifen. We determined the ranking of 10 allergic factors using the relative range ratio calculated by Multiple factor analysis. The ranking as follows: (1) Eosinophil count (2)
The IgE mediated reactions such as 48 hr homologous passive cutaneous anaphylaxis (PCA) and active anaphylactic bronchoconstriction in rats were inhibited in a dose dependent manner by treatment with 7-acetyl-5-oxo-5H-[1]benzopyranol[2,3-b] pyridine (Y-9000) and disodium cromoglycate (DSCG) given
BACKGROUND
Allergies are a problem that greatly affects the population, and hence the use of antiallergic medications is fairly widespread. However, these drugs have many adverse effects. The use of medicinal plants could be an option, but they need to be evaluated.
OBJECTIVE
This study was designed
The third larval stage (L3) of Anisakis simplex (Anisakidae) is one of the zoonotic parasitic nematodes in the musculature and visceral organs of marine fishes belonging to family Moronidae. The consumption of these high-commercial-value fish is widespread in many countries around the Mediterranean
In this review, the phytochemistry and pharmacology of two ornamental gingers, Hedychium coronarium (butterfly ginger) and Alpinia purpurata (red ginger), are updated, and their botany and uses are described. Flowers of H. coronarium are large, showy, white, yellow or white with a yellow centre and
OBJECTIVE
Several kinds of flavonoids, widely distributed natural products of the vegetable kingdom which possess anti-inflammatory activity, were examined for inhibitory effects on the acetyl-CoA: 1-alkyl-2-lyso-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (lysoPAF) acetyltransferase
IgE-mediated allergic reactions to egg white are a serious health problem and ovomucoid being the dominant egg white allergen has been on focus in the past decade. Engineered hypoallergens with reduced reactivity for IgE antibodies are being examined to modulate the allergic response and develop
Electron microscopic studies provided evidence that a patient with cow's milk allergy, manifested as bronchial asthma, has prominent eosinophil granule discharge, attributable to the release of cytotoxic major basic protein (MBP). This finding illustrates a critical role of eosinophil MBP in
A new chiral stationary phase using conalbumin (from chicken egg white) was developed for high-performance liquid chromatography. Chiral resolution of racemic azelastine, an antiallergic drug, was achieved on a conalbumin-conjugated silica gel column. The effects of the pH, the concentration of
A case of eosinophilic cystitis complicated with transient vesicoureteral reflux in an 11-year-old girl with allergic disorders is reported. She was suffering from pollakisuria, painful urination, vesical irritability, and gross hematuria for about 2 months. Urinalysis showed aseptic pyuria. White
A 28 year old white man with hemophilia A had, for several years, been successfully maintained on a home care program utilizing self-administration of factor VIII concentrates, but one such infusion resulted in severe anaphylaxis. An immunoglobulin E (IgE)-mediated hypersensitivity response was
Chicory (Cichorium intybus L) is a bushy perennial herb with blue, lavender, or occasionally white flowers. It grows as a wild plant on roadsides in its native Europe, and in North America, where it has become naturalized. Common chicory is also known as blue sailors, succory, and coffeeweed.
