Many studies have reported the biological activities of retrofractamide C (RAC). However, few studies have investigated the anti-inflammatory effect of RAC. In the present study, we investigated the anti-inflammatory effect of RAC using lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced J774A.1 cells and a
Pyeongwisan (PW) is an herbal medication used in traditional East Asian medicine to treat anorexia, abdominal distension, borborygmus and diarrhea caused by gastric catarrh, atony and dilatation. However, its effects on inflammation-related diseases are unknown. In this study, we investigated the
A 27-year-old male committed suicide by ingestion of a large quantity of xylene. The presence of xylene in the tissues of the victim was confirmed by chromatographic and spectrometric techniques. High levels of xylene were detected in blood (11 mg/dl), gastric contents (880 mg/dl), and duodenal
Increased negativity of the interstitial fluid pressure (P(i)) in the skin is a major driving force to create the initial edema in burn injury and, to a smaller degree, in the edemas formed in the initial phase of the chemical irritation induced by xylene and the anaphylactic reaction induced by
The regulation of the inflammatory response is essential to maintaining homeostasis. Several studies have investigated new drugs that may contribute to avoiding or minimizing excessive inflammatory process. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of extracts of green algae Caulerpa
The present study evaluated the anti-inflammatory effects of 4-methylcyclopentadecanone (4-MCPC) on edema models in mice and aimed to determine the safety of 4-MCPC after acute exposure. The acute toxicity of 4-MCPC was evaluated by oral administration to rats of single doses of 0, 5, 50, 500 and
A sensitive, specific, and accurate high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS/MS) method was developed and validated for the quantification of prostaglandins D2 (PGD2) and E2 (PGE2) in a mouse ear edema model. We used activated charcoal to obtain PG-free ear samples.
Intravesical instillation of xylene (30-50%) produced detrusor hyperreflexia characterized by a decrease in both the bladder capacity (time to micturition in the cystometrogram) and the urine volume in conscious rats placed in a restraining cage. At this time, the bladder tissue showed evidence of
OBJECTIVE
We report the first case of intravenous self-poisoning with Thiodan (30% endosulfan in xylene).
METHODS
A 28-year-old woman with a past history of epilepsy presented with refractory grand mal seizures after injecting 1 mL of Thiodan intravenously. She developed liver dysfunction, proximal
Maydis Stigma (MS) is an herb traditionally used in many parts of the world. Previous studies have reported that MS plays a role in several biological activities, including antidiabetic and anticancer activities. However, the effects of a MS ethanolic extract (MSE) on the anti-inflammatory cellular
12-0-Tetradecanoylphorbol acetate (TPA) applied to mouse ears rapidly induces an edema which is maximal by 6 hr but has substantially waned by 24 hr. (This is in contrast to many inflammatory agents that cause a prolonged edema lasting many days.) Reapplication of TPA at 16-24 hr will not provoke a
BACKGROUND
Forty-eight patients poisoned with insecticide formulations containing permethrin (a Type I pyrethroid insecticide), xylene, and surfactants are reported here. These patients were diagnosed and treated in the Chang Gung Memorial Hospital in Taiwan from January 1987 to June 1999. Ten
BACKGROUND
Ipomoea asarifolia (Desr.) Roem. and Schult.(Convolvulaceae), popularly known as salsa or salsa-brava, is a plant of which the decoction of leaves is used in folk medicine to treat various inflammatory disorders such of dermatitis, scabies, symptoms of syphilis, skin ulcers and external
The regulation of the inflammatory response is essential to maintaining homeostasis. Several studies have investigated new drugs that may contribute to avoiding or minimizing excessive inflammatory process.

Urginea indica has been used in the traditional system of medicine to treat various inflammatory diseases.Present study investigates the effects of aqueous and ethanolic extracts of U. indica on joint inflammation using different models of acute and chronic
