Reduced production of anti-inflammatory soluble HLA-G molecules in styrene exposed workers.

Only registered users can translate articles

HLA-G antigens are non-classical HLA-class I anti-inflammatory molecules. Since styrene exposure has been suggested to induce immune alteration, we analyzed plasma levels and "in vitro" peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC) production of soluble HLA-G (sHLA-G) and interleukin-10 (IL-10) molecules

Antinociceptive and anti-inflammatory effects of 1,2-bis-(4 methoxyphenylselanyl) styrene in mice: involvement of the serotonergic system.

BACKGROUND Pain is one of the most prevalent, costly and disabling conditions that reduces quality of life. Although there are many analgesics available, there is some concern regarding their efficacy, safety and side effects. Organic selenium compounds are attractive targets of various research

Styrene maleic acid encapsulated raloxifene micelles for management of inflammatory bowel disease.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) comprises a group of disorders that manifest through chronic inflammation of the colon and small intestine. Although the exact cause of IBD is still unclear, dysfunctional immunoregulation involving overproduction of inflammatory cytokines such as TNF-α,

Styrene induces an inflammatory response in human lung epithelial cells via oxidative stress and NF-kappaB activation.

Only registered users can translate articles

Styrene is a volatile organic compound (VOC) that is widely used as a solvent in many industrial settings. Chronic exposure to styrene can result in irritation of the mucosa of the upper respiratory tract. Contact of styrene with epithelial cells stimulates the expression of a variety of

[Synthesis and anti-inflammatory activity of p-(methanesulfonyl) styrene-linked cyclic ketone derivatives].

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE To search for new compounds with strong anti-inflammatory activity and low gastrointestinal (GI) side effects. METHODS A series of p-(methanesulfonyl) styrene-linked cyclic ketone derivatives were synthesized. Their anti-inflammatory activities against xylene-induced mice ear swelling and

Self-assembling covalent organic framework functionalized poly (styrene-divinyl benzene-glycidylmethacrylate) composite for the rapid extraction of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs in wastewater.

The growing use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) has seriously affected human health and ecosystems, as a result, the World Health Organization (WHO) has regarded them as emerging contaminants. NSAID's polar nature and trace amount present in wastewater make their extraction and

Styrene-maleic acid copolymer-encapsulated CORM2, a water-soluble carbon monoxide (CO) donor with a constant CO-releasing property, exhibits therapeutic potential for inflammatory bowel disease.

Only registered users can translate articles

Carbon monoxide (CO), the physiological product of heme oxygenase during catabolic breakdown of heme, has versatile functions and fulfills major anti-oxidative and anti-apoptotic roles in cell systems. Administration of CO is thus thought to be a reasonable therapeutic approach in diseases-such as

Airway inflammation in occupational asthma caused by styrene.

Strain-related differences in mouse lung gene expression over a two-year period of inhalation exposure to styrene: Relevance to human risk assessment.

Only registered users can translate articles

Both CD-1 and C57BL/6 wildtype (C57BL/6-WT) mice show equivalent short-term lung toxicity from exposures to styrene, while long-term tumor responses are greater in CD-1 mice. We analyzed lung gene expression from styrene exposures lasting from 1-day to 2-years in male mice from these two strains,

The aromatic volatile organic compounds toluene, benzene and styrene induce COX-2 and prostaglandins in human lung epithelial cells via oxidative stress and p38 MAPK activation.

Only registered users can translate articles

Toluene, benzene and styrene are volatile organic compounds (VOCs) widely distributed in the environment. Tobacco smoke, traffic exposure and solvents used for paints, rubber and adhesives are known sources for these compounds. The aim of the present study was to investigate whether toluene, benzene

Effect of styrene exposure on plasma parameters, molecular mechanisms and gene expression in rat model islet cells.

Only registered users can translate articles

Styrene is an aromatic hydrocarbon compound present in the environment and have primary exposure through plastic industry. The current study was designed to evaluate styrene-induced toxicity parameters in rat plasma fasting blood glucose (FBG) level, oral glucose tolerance, insulin secretion,

Comprehensive evaluation of imidazole-based polymers for the enrichment of selected non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs.

Only registered users can translate articles

This study reports the comparison of four manufactured imidazole-based copolymers and two commercially available hydrophilic sorbents for the solid phase extraction (SPE) of selected non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID). Different hydrophilic copolymers were obtained by a suspension

Synthesis of hollow CaCO3 nanospheres templated by micelles of poly(styrene-b-acrylic acid-b-ethylene glycol) in aqueous solutions.

Only registered users can translate articles

An asymmetric triblock copolymer, poly(styrene-b-acrylic acid-b-ethylene glycol) (PS-b-PAA-b-PEG), was synthesized via reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer controlled radical polymerization. Micelles of PS-b-PAA-b-PEG with PS core, PAA shell, and PEG corona were then prepared in aqueous

Tissue protective effect of xanthine oxidase inhibitor, polymer conjugate of (styrene-maleic acid copolymer) and (4-amino-6-hydroxypyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidine), on hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury.

Only registered users can translate articles

The detrimental role of superoxide anion (O(2)(-)) has been well documented in the pathogenesis of ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury. Our and other studies suggested that one critical source of O(2)(-) generation may be xanthine oxidase (XO). We thus hypothesized that I/R injury could be protected

The effects of styrene on lung cells in female mice and rats.

Only registered users can translate articles

Styrene has been shown to cause an increase in the incidence of lung tumors in CD-1 mice following chronic exposure at 40 and 160 ppm, whereas no treatment-related increase in tumors in any organ was seen in rats chronically exposed to up to 1000 ppm styrene. So far most of the mechanistic studies
