OBJECTIVE
To determine the changes of paraoxonase activity in patients with heart failure.
METHODS
The serum paraoxonase (PON) activity of the heart failure group and controls was measured with phenylacetate as the substrate.
RESULTS
The serum PON activity of the heart failure patients significantly
A protein kinase C (PKC) agonist selective for the beta I isozyme, 12-deoxyphorbol 13-phenylacetate 20-acetate (dPPA), induced NF-kappa B-like binding activity and surface expression of E-selectin and VCAM-1 in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC), similar to the effects of tumor necrosis
X-Adrenoleukodystrophy (X-ALD) is a peroxisomal disorder characterized by accumulation of very-long-chain (VLC) fatty acids, which induces inflammatory disease and alterations in cellular redox, both of which are reported to play a role in the pathogenesis of the severe form of the disease
P-glycoprotein is an ATP (adenosine triphosphate)-driven drug efflux transporter that is highly expressed at the blood-brain barrier (BBB) and is a major obstacle to the pharmacotherapy of central nervous system diseases, including brain tumors, neuro-AIDS, and epilepsy. Previous studies have shown
1. Since the sodium phenylacetate (NaPa) was reported to enhance the inhibitory effect of carboxymethyl benzylamide dextran (CMDB) on the breast cancer growth, we performed the esterification of CMDB with NaPa to obtain a new drug carrying the characteristics of these two components. A new molecule,
