ethyl ester/hemorrhage

Neutrophil activation after trauma-hemorrhagic shock (T/H) has been implicated in the development of multiple organ dysfunction (MOD). In this study, we report that a small chemical compound, 2-(2-fluorobenzamido)benzoic acid ethyl ester (EFB-1), exhibited a potent inhibitory effect on the

OBJECTIVE Occurrence of cerebral vasospasm after onset of aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is a critical factor determining clinical prognosis. Eicosapentaenoic acid and docosahexaenoic acid, both ω-3 fatty acids (ω-3FA), can suppress cerebral vasospasm, and docosahexaenoic acid can relax

OBJECTIVE To investigate the effects of glutathione (GSH) precursor glutathione ethyl ester (GSEt) on smoke inhalation induced lung injury rats. METHODS Sixty healthy male Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were divided into groups by random digits table method, which included normal group, model group, GSEt

BACKGROUND The goal of this study was to investigate the effect of fatty acid ethyl esters (FAEE), nonoxidative metabolites of ethanol, on platelet function. We hypothesized that FAEE increase the risk of bleeding by producing an alteration in platelet membrane structure or

Omega-3 fatty acid ethyl esters have well-known triglyceride-lowering properties and were shown >30 years ago to inhibit platelet function. With the recent US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval of these agents for treating severe triglyceride elevations, concerns about excess bleeding

The consumption of alcohol is known to have both positive and negative effects on the functioning of the cardiovascular system in general, and on platelet function in particular. Fatty acid ethyl esters (FAEEs) are non-oxidative metabolite of ethanol that may mediate the ethanol effect on platelet

A method for obtaining Crotalus atrox alpha-proteinase (EC 3.4.24.1) in a pure form has been developed. Fractionation of the crude venom on DEAE-Sepharose, followed by gel filtration on Bio-Gel P-150 and chromatography on CM-Sepharose, yielded an alpha-proteinase preparation which showed a single

Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) ethyl ester (1.8 g/d) was administered to 16 diabetic patients (5 insulin-dependent and 11 noninsulin-dependent diabetics) for 6 mon. EPA in total plasma fatty acids increased from 4.0 +/- 2.4 mol% (mean +/- SD) to 7.5 +/- 3.1 mol% (p less than 0.001). Albumin excretion,

Fourteen patients suffering from familial hypercholesterolemia (type IIa) participated in a double-blind, placebo-controlled trial that evaluated the effects of fish oil ethyl ester (K-85, 5.7 g/day) or a hydroxymethylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase inhibitor (lovastatin, 40 mg/day) alone or in

Protective properties of n-3 and n-6 polyunsaturated, monosaturated and saturated fatty acids (respectively, n-3 PUFA, n-6 PUFA, MUFA and SFA) against ethanol induced hemorrhagic gastric mucosal lesions were compared. Female Wistar rats (90-100 g) were fed to four weeks semisyntethic diets

A proteinase from Crotalus adamanteus venom has been isolated to the stage of electrophoretic homogeneity by chromatography of the crude venom on CM-Sepharose, Phenyl-Sepharose, Ultrogel AcA 44 and DEAE-Sepharose. The proteinase accounts for 100% of the detectable hemorrhagic activity in the venom,

Evidence suggesting that dietary omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids decrease the risk of thrombosis comes mainly from studies involving supplementation with large amounts (15-20 g/day) of fish oil extract. We investigated the inhibition of platelet function by a moderate amount (4 g/d) of ethyl

Omega-3 fatty acids (n-3 FA) from oily fish are clinically useful for lowering triglycerides and reducing risk of heart attacks. Accordingly, patients at risk are often advised to take both aspirin and n-3 FA. However, both of these agents can increase bleeding times, and the extent to which the

The complement system is a very important part of the immune system. Many snake venoms possess activities that influence the complement. A new metalloproteinase (termed atrase B) with anticomplementary activity was purified from Naja atra venom. Atrase B is a single chain glycoprotein with a

Objective: Urgent carotid endarterectomy and carotid artery stenting (CAS) for symptomatic advanced carotid artery stenosis is controversial because carry risks of hemorrhagic and thromboembolic complications. As treatments for preventing recurrent stroke have
