New environment friendly approach for the synthesis of idrocilamide (1), the marketed myorelaxant and anti-inflammatory agent, is reported. The synthetic strategy involves a solvent free aminolysis reaction catalyzed by different zinc-containing catalysts: ZnCl2, montmorillonite K10 impregnated with
BACKGROUND
Interest has recently renewed in using Lolium multiflorum Lam. (Poaceae) (called Italian ryegrass; IRG) silage as an antioxidant and anti-inflammatory diet.

Phytohemagglutinin (PHA)-induced human T cell clones (TCC) derived from conjunctival flogistic tissues of 3 patients with vernal conjunctivitis produced unusually high amounts of interleukin-4 (IL-4) and no, or limited amounts of, gamma-interferon (IFN-gamma). Allergen (Dermatophagoides
BACKGROUND
Pollens are important triggers for allergic asthma and seasonal rhinitis. We have recently reported that proteases released by major allergenic pollens can injure airway epithelial cells in vitro. Disruption of epithelial integrity by proteases released following deposition of pollens on
BACKGROUND
The seasonal allergic conjunctivitis is an inflammatory disease of the ocular surface that affects mainly children, with predominance of male sex. It is an immunological disease with a typical reaction of hypersensitivity type 1 (IgE), resulted from several biological reactions
AIMS To determine if equine fescue oedema (EFO) induced by grazing Mediterranean-type tall fescue (Lolium arundinaceum) infected with selected endophytes (Epichloë coenophiala) could be prevented by treatment with the corticosteroid, methylprednisolone, and anti-histamine, cetirizine, and to
BACKGROUND
Local allergic rhinitis (LAR) is a phenotype of rhinitis that has been poorly studied in children. It is characterized by the same symptoms of allergic rhinitis but with the absence of markers of systemic atopy.
OBJECTIVE
To identify children affected by LAR and to analyze the
The extent of epithelial lesion in allergic and non-allergic rhinitis and its association with inflammatory changes in nasal lavage has not been clarified.To verify the association between the inflammatory cells in the nasal lavage, epithelial lesion extent
