Inhibition of ischemic brain edema formation by post-ischemic administration of a prostaglandin oligomer.

Only registered users can translate articles

We studied the efficacy of an oligomeric derivative of prostaglandin E1 in protecting the rat brain against focal ischemia. The degree of ischemic damage was evaluated from three parameters, namely, the degree of edema formation, reduction of motor performance, and memory disturbance as measured by

[Pulmonary vascular reactivity and the development of edema in the presence of prostaglandin inhibitors in the isolated canine lobe].

Only registered users can translate articles

Alveolar hypoxia is the most powerful pulmonary vasoconstrictor. In a previous work, we did not demonstrate significant changes in vascular reactivity and edema formation in an isolated canine lobe model during alveolar hypoxia. The purpose of this study is to define vascular pulmonary reactivity

The effect of the prostaglandin I2 analogue OP-2507 on adrenaline-induced pulmonary edema in rabbits and analysis of hemodynamic changes.

Only registered users can translate articles

This study was carried out to understand the onset mechanism of adrenaline (ADR)-induced pulmonary edema (PE) and the effect of drugs related to the arachidonate cascade in a rabbit model. ADR was administered intravenously by a bolus injection to the rabbits at 50, 75 and 100 microg/kg. To evaluate

Latanoprost-associated cystoid macular edema.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE To report two cases in which cystoid macular edema developed after initiation of topical latanoprost for glaucoma. METHODS Case reports. One pseudophakic eye in each of two patients treated with latanoprost for glaucoma developed decreased vision and cystoid macular edema. Latanoprost was

Histamine receptor and prostaglandin synthetase blockers in ethchlorvynol-induced pulmonary edema in canines.

Only registered users can translate articles

The injection of ethchlorvynol intravenously in humans and animals causes an increased permeability form of pulmonary edema. The proximate cause for this increased alveolar capillary membrane permeability is unknown but humoral mediators such as histamine and prostaglandins could play a role. To

Pharmacologic therapy of aphakic cystoid macular edema. A review.

Only registered users can translate articles

Pharmacologic therapy of aphakic cystoid macular edema (ACME) in the past has included the use of topical, periocular, and systemic corticosteroids as well as inhibitors of prostaglandin synthesis. Preliminary studies have suggested a beneficial effect of systemic corticosteroids on ACME, although

Acute macular edema following intracorporeal prostaglandin injection for erectile dysfunction.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE We aimed to describe the first case of macular edema following intracorporeal injection of alprostadil, a prostaglandin E1. METHODS This was a retrospective case report followed with optical coherence tomography, fundus photos, and fluorescein angiography images. RESULTS A patient

Differential modulation of cell recruitment and acute edema in a model of Polybia paulista venom-induced inflammation.

Only registered users can translate articles

Hymenoptera stings are quite common and can cause inflammatory reactions (in nonallergic individuals) or serious reactions (in allergic individuals). Hymenoptera venom contains histamine, vasoactive kinins, serotonin, phospholipase A, phospholipase B, hyaluronidase, antigen 5 and mastoparans. Some

Non-Clinical Studies for Evaluation of 8-C-Rhamnosyl Apigenin Purified from Peperomia obtusifolia against Acute Edema.

Only registered users can translate articles

Compound 8-C-rhamnosyl apigenin (8CR) induced a moderate reduction in the enzymatic activity of secretory phospholipase A2 (sPLA2) from Crotalus durissus terrificus and cytosolic phospholipase A2 (cPLA2), but the compound also significantly inhibited the enzymatic activity of the enzyme

Latanoprost accelerates disruption of the blood-aqueous barrier and the incidence of angiographic cystoid macular edema in early postoperative pseudophakias.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE To study the effect of latanoprost, a prostaglandin analog, on the blood-aqueous barrier and angiographic cystoid macular edema (CME) formation in early postoperative pseudophakias. METHODS Included in the study were eyes with ocular hypertension, normal-tension glaucoma, or primary

Cyclocryokoagulation. Sequelae of induced alterations and effect of a prostaglandin-inhibitor on the breakdown of the blood-aqueous barrier.

Only registered users can translate articles

Histopathological changes following cyclocryokoagulation in a group of rabbits pretreated with acetylsalicyclic acid (ASA) were studied and compared with similar changes in a control group. As observed clinically, macroscopical and histological differences were only noted in the early phase after

The effect of MK-0524, a prostaglandin D(2) receptor antagonist, on prostaglandin D (2)-induced nasal airway obstruction in healthy volunteers.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Nasal congestion in allergic rhinitis results from tissue edema and vasodilatation in the nasal mucosa. Of the mediators released by mast cells in response to allergens, prostaglandin (PG) D(2) is regarded as the most potent inducer of nasal congestion. Intranasal administration of PGD(2)

The effects of a prostaglandin synthetase inhibitor, ibuprofen, on the cardiopulmonary response to endotoxin in sheep.

Only registered users can translate articles

Prostaglandins released during inflammatory reactions cause increases in microvascular hydrostatic pressure, a primary cause of edema. Ibuprofen, a nonsteroidal, anti-inflammatory agent that reduces prostaglandin synthesis via inhibition of cyclooxygenase, was used to investigate the possible role

Anti-inflammatory effects of the butanolic fraction of Byrsonima verbascifolia leaves: Mechanisms involving inhibition of tumor necrosis factor alpha, prostaglandin E(2) production and migration of polymorphonuclear leucocyte in vivo experimentation.

Only registered users can translate articles

The leaves of Byrsonima verbascifolia (Malpighiaceae) are traditionally used to treat various diseases including inflammatory conditions. The main goal of this study was to evaluate the in vivo anti-inflammatory activity of the polar constituents from the butanolic fraction of B. verbascifolia

Effect of forskolin on alterations of vascular permeability induced with bradykinin, prostaglandin E1, adenosine, histamine and carrageenin in rats.

Only registered users can translate articles

The effect of the diterpene forskolin on vascular permeability alone and in combination with bradykinin, prostaglandin E1, adenosine or histamine has been investigated in rats. Vascular permeability in rat skin was measured using [125I]-labelled bovine serum albumin ([125I]BSA) as a tracer. In
