Inhibition of nuclear factor-kappa B prevents staphylococcal enterotoxin A-induced fever.

Only registered users can translate articles

It has been shown that staphylococcal enterotoxin A (SEA) acts through human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) to stimulate synthesis or release of pyrogenic cytokines. Nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-kappaB) is thought to play an important role in inflammatory responses through the regulation of

An NMDA receptor-dependent hydroxyl radical pathway in the rabbit hypothalamus may mediate lipopolysaccharide fever.

Only registered users can translate articles

The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of antioxidants (e.g. alpha-lipoic acid and N-acetyl-L-cysteine) as well as N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor antagonists (e.g. MK-801 and LY235959) on the changes of both core temperature and hypothalamic levels of 2,3-dihydroxybenzoic acid

Hyperthermia enhances radiosensitivity of colorectal cancer cells through ROS inducing autophagic cell death.

Only registered users can translate articles

Hyperthermia (HT) enhances the anti-cancer effects of radiotherapy (RT), but the precise biochemical mechanisms involved are unclear. This study was aim to investigate if mild HT sensitizes colorectal cancer cells to RT through reactive oxygen species (ROS)-inducing autophagic cell death in a mice

Enhancement of cytotoxicity of hydrogen peroxide by hyperthermia in chinese hamster ovary cells: role of antioxidant defenses.

Only registered users can translate articles

Regional hyperthermia has potential for human cancer treatment, particularly in combination with systemic chemotherapy or radiotherapy. The mechanisms involved in heat-induced cell killing are currently unknown. Hyperthermia may increase oxidative stress in cells, and thus, oxidative stress could

A new Legionella species, Legionella feeleii species nova, causes Pontiac fever in an automobile plant.

Only registered users can translate articles

From 15 to 21 August 1981, Pontiac fever affected 317 automobile assembly plant workers. Results of serologic tests were negative for Mycoplasma, Chlamydia, respiratory tract viruses, and previously described legionellae. A gram-negative, rod-shaped organism (WO-44C) that did not grow on blood agar,

Cystathionine β-synthase-derived hydrogen sulfide is involved in human malignant hyperthermia.

Only registered users can translate articles

Hydrogen sulfide is an endogenous gasotransmitter and its mechanism of action involves activation of ATP-sensitive K(+) channels and phosphodiesterase inhibition. As both mechanisms are potentially involved in malignant hyperthermia (MH), in the present study we addressed the involvement of the

Mild hyperthermia enhances sensitivity of gastric cancer cells to chemotherapy through reactive oxygen species-induced autophagic death.

Only registered users can translate articles

Mild hyperthermia enhances anti-cancer effects of chemotherapy, but the precise biochemical mechanisms involved are not clear. This study was carried out to investigate whether mild hyperthermia sensitizes gastric cancer cells to chemotherapy through reactive oxygen species-induced autophagic death.

N-Acetyl-l-cysteine exacerbates generation of IL-10 in cells stimulated with endotoxin in vitro and produces antipyresis via IL-10 dependent pathway in vivo.

Only registered users can translate articles

N-Acetyl-l-cysteine (NAC) is a well-known medication, primarily used as a mucolytic agent in pulmonary disease. Recently, we have found that NAC possesses antipyretic properties. The aim of the present study was to investigate the mechanism by which NAC attenuates fever. The concentration of

Hyperthermia enhances photodynamic therapy by regulation of HCP1 and ABCG2 expressions via high level ROS generation.

Only registered users can translate articles

Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is a cancer treatment that make use of the cancer-specific accumulation of porphyrins. We have reported that mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (mitROS) upregulate uptake transporter of porphyrins, heme carrier protein-1 (HCP-1). The accumulation of cancer-specific

Hyperthermia assists survival of astrocytes from oxidative-mediated necrotic cell death.

Only registered users can translate articles

In response to many stresses and pathologic states, including different models of nervous system injury, cells synthesize a variety of proteins, most notably the inducible 72 kDa heat shock protein 70 (Hsp70), which plays important roles in maintaining cellular integrity and viability. We report

[A case of bucillamine-induced interstitial pneumonia].

Only registered users can translate articles

Bucillamine [N-(2-mercapto-2-methylpropionyl)-L-cysteine] is an anti-rheumatic drug which was developed in Japan. Interstitial pneumonia induced by bucillamine has been reported in two patients with rheumatoid arthritis. In this report, we describe another patient who developed bucillamine-induced

Acute intoxication with trichloroethene: clinical symptoms, toxicokinetics, metabolism, and development of biochemical parameters for renal damage.

Only registered users can translate articles

The present study reports on a 17-year-old male who ingested approximately 70 ml trichloroethene (TRI) in a suicide attempt. The patient developed fever, tremor, general motor restlessness, and sinus tachycardia and lost consciousness 5 h after poisoning. After 5 days of intubation under narcosis

Higher induction of heat shock protein 72 by heat stress in cisplatin-resistant than in cisplatin-sensitive cancer cells.

Only registered users can translate articles

Induction of the heat shock proteins (HSPs) is involved in the increased resistance to cancer therapies such as chemotherapy and hyperthermia. We used two human ovarian cancer cell lines; a cisplatin (CDDP)-sensitive line A2780 and its CDDP-resistant derivative, A2780CP. The concentration of

Gamma-proteobacteria Aquicella lusitana gen. nov., sp. nov., and Aquicella siphonis sp. nov. infect protozoa and require activated charcoal for growth in laboratory media.

Only registered users can translate articles

Several isolates, belonging to two new species of the same novel genus of gamma-proteobacteria, were recovered from drilled well (borehole) and spa water at São Gemil in central Portugal. These organisms are phylogenetically most closely related to the strictly intracellular uncultured species of

Protective effects of N-acetylcysteine on 3, 4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine-induced neurotoxicity in male Sprague-Dawley rats.

Only registered users can translate articles

Exposure to 3, 4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA) leads to spatial memory impairment and hippocampal cell death. In the present study we have examined the protective effects of N-acetyl-L-cysteine (NAC) on MDMA-induced neurotoxicity. A total of 56 male Sprague Dawley rats (200-250 g) received
