The induction of renal papillary necrosis in Gunn rats by analgesics and analgesic mixtures.

Only registered users can translate articles

Homozygous members of the mutant Gunn strain of Wistar rats genetically lack the enzyme uridine diphosphate glucuronyl transferase. "High" and "low" dose gavage feeding for 18-34 days of an analgesic mixture containing aspirin, phenacetin and caffeine (APC) confirmed the previously reported

Cysteinyl leukotrienes and uridine diphosphate induce cytokine generation by human mast cells through an interleukin 4-regulated pathway that is inhibited by leukotriene receptor antagonists.

Only registered users can translate articles

We previously reported that interleukin (IL)-4 upregulates the expression of leukotriene C(4) synthase (LTC(4)S) by human cord blood--derived mast cells (hMCs), augments their high-affinity Fc receptor for IgE (Fc(epsilon)RI)-dependent generation of eicosanoids and cytokines, and induces a calcium

Enhanced hyaluronan synthesis in the MRL-Fas(lpr) kidney: role of cytokines.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE Pathological accumulation of the extracellular matrix component hyaluronan (HA) occurs in the kidney cortex in immune-system mediated tissue injury. The purpose of the present study was to examine the pattern of HA deposition and the mechanisms of HA synthesis in the MRL-Fas(lpr) mouse

Regorafenib induced severe toxic hepatitis: characterization and discussion.

Only registered users can translate articles

Regorafenib is the first small-molecule multikinase inhibitor which showed survival benefits in pretreated metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) patients. Besides classical adverse events of this drug class, hepatotoxicity has been described as a frequent side effect. Patients with refractory mCRC

In vivo effect of sodium valproate on mouse liver.

Only registered users can translate articles

The in vivo effect of sodium valproate (SV) on the activity of uridine diphosphate glucuronosyltransferase (UDP-GT) and hepatotoxicity in the mouse liver was studied. Mice were injected intraperitoneally (IP) with SV at doses varying from 50 to 800 mg/kg per day, for six consecutive days

Antibody to cell wall glycolipid of Gram-negative bacteria: induction of immunity to bacteremia and endotoxemia.

Only registered users can translate articles

Antiserum to the core glycolipid of gram-negative bacteria was prepared by immunization of rabbits with vaccine composed of killed cells of the uridine diphosphate galactose-deficient mutant (J5) of Escherichia coli O:111. Antiserum to J5 not only prevented death of animals from endotoxin but also

[Crigler-Najjar syndrome. Report of one case with a long term follow up].

Only registered users can translate articles

Crigler-Najjar Syndrome is an uncommon genetic disorder characterized by the elevation of unconjugated plasmatic bilirubin secondary to deficiency of the enzyme uridine diphosphate glucuronyltransferase (UDP-GT). We report a 19-years-old woman with the syndrome diagnosed during the neonatal period,

Nephrotoxicity of mild analgesics in the Gunn strain of rat.

Only registered users can translate articles

1 Homozygous members of the Gunn strain of rat, mutant Wistars jaundiced from lack of the enzyme uridine diphosphate glucuronyl transferase, are highly susceptible to analgesic-induced renal papillary necrosis. 2 A single oral dose of aspirin, phenacetin or paracetamol will produce the lesion, a

Jiawei Xianglian Decoction (JWXLD), a Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), Alleviates CPT-11-Induced Diarrhea in Mice.

Only registered users can translate articles

Irinotecan (CPT-11) is used for therapy of various cancers. However, it has several serious adverse reactions such as diarrhea which is caused by SN-38, the active form of CPT-11. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of Jiawei xianglian decoction (JWXLD), which has been widely used for the

Modulation of benzo[a]pyrene bioactivation by glucuronidation in lymphocytes and hepatic microsomes from rats with a hereditary deficiency in bilirubin UDP-glucuronosyltransferase.

Only registered users can translate articles

UDP-glucuronosyltransferases (UGTs) play a major role in the elimination of nucleophilic metabolites of xenobiotics, such the phenols and quinols of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, including benzo[a]pyrene (BP). In this way, UGTs may prevent the further oxidation of such metabolites to toxic

Identification and expression analysis of leptin-regulated immediate early response and late target genes.

Only registered users can translate articles

Using PC12 cells as an in vitro model system, we have identified a series of transcripts induced through activation of the leptin receptor. On the basis of kinetic studies, two distinct gene sets could be discerned: signal transducer and activator of transciption-3 (STAT-3), suppressor of cytokine

Reduced UDP-glucose Levels Are Associated with P-glycoprotein Over-expression in L1210 Cells and Limit Glucosylceramide Synthase Activity.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE P-glycoprotein (Pgp) expression in neoplastic cells is known to reduce cell sensitivity to several cytotoxic Pgp substrates. A member of the ABC transporter family, Pgp, represents the most frequently described membrane efflux pump and its expression in neoplastic cells is responsible for

[Effect of moxibustion at "Zusanli"(ST36) on metabolites of gastric tissue in rats with chronic atrophic gastritis based on metabonomics].

Only registered users can translate articles

To observe the effect of moxibustion at "Zusanli" (ST36) on metabolites of gastric tissue in chronic atrophic gastritis (CAG) rats, so as to explore the correlation between Yangming Meridian and stomach based on

Acute rejection in kidney transplantation and the evaluation of associated polymorphisms (SNPs): the importance of sample size.

Only registered users can translate articles

Background Acute rejection (AR) is one of the most frequent complications after kidney transplantation (KT). Scientific evidence reports that some single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) located in genes involved in the immune response and in the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of

Only registered users can translate articles

The investigational anti-cancer drug 5,6-dimethylxanthenone-4-acetic acid (DMXAA) was developed by the Auckland Cancer Society Research Centre (ACSRC). It has recently completed Phase I trials in New Zealand and UK under the direction of the Cancer Research Campaign's Phase I/II Clinical Trials
