pyridine/edema

BACKGROUND Derivatives of pyridine-4-one act as iron chelators and possess various pharmacological effects such as antifungal, antimalarial, antiviral, anti-inflammatory, and analgesic effects. The aim of our study was to evaluate the anti-inflammatory effects of the three new derivatives of

The IgE mediated reactions such as 48 hr homologous passive cutaneous anaphylaxis (PCA) and active anaphylactic bronchoconstriction in rats were inhibited in a dose dependent manner by treatment with 7-acetyl-5-oxo-5H-[1]benzopyranol[2,3-b] pyridine (Y-9000) and disodium cromoglycate (DSCG) given

We performed this study to demonstrate the experimental procedure for inducing pulmonary edema by angiotensin II (AT II) in rats and to determine the mechanism of hemodynamic pulmonary edema. In the pilot study, 10 micrograms/ml of AT II was found to be adequate as the edematogenic dose for inducing

The synthesis of variously substituted pyrrolo[3,4-d]pyrimidines and pyrrolo[3,4-b]pyridines is reported. Some of the compounds act as reducers of the carrageenin edema in the rat and as inhibitors of prostaglandin biosynthesis in a microsomal preparation of bovine seminal vesicles.

Organophosphates (OP) account for the majority of pesticide-related unintentional or intentional poisonings in lower- and middle-income countries. The therapeutic role of atropine is well-established for patients with acute OP poisoning. The benefit of adding 2-pyridine aldoxime methyl chloride

The prophylactic and therapeutic effects of S-312-d (S-(+)-methyl-4,7-dihydro-3-isobutyl-6-methyl-4-(3-nitrophenyl)thieno[2, 3- b]pyridine-5-carboxylate, CAS 120056-57-7) were compared with those of nimodipine or nicardipine using male stroke-prone spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRSP). The

CXCR4 and its cognate ligand CXCL12 has been linked to various pathways such as cancer metastasis, inflammation, HIV-1 proliferation, and auto-immune diseases. Small molecules have shown potential as CXCR4 inhibitors and modulators, and therefore can mitigate diseases related to the CXCR4-CXCL12

Targeting the interaction between G-Protein Coupled Receptor, CXCR4, and its natural ligand CXCL12 is a leading strategy to mitigate cancer metastasis and reduce inflammation. Several pyridine-based compounds modeled after known small molecule CXCR4 antagonists, AMD3100 and WZ811, were synthesized.

Studies demonstrate that small molecule targeting of atypical protein kinase C (aPKC) may provide an effective means to control vascular permeability, prevent edema, and reduce inflammation providing novel and important alternatives to anti-VEGF therapies for certain blinding eye diseases. Based on

OBJECTIVE To review the clinical pharmacology of torsemide and to compare it with currently available loop diuretics, particularly furosemide. METHODS An English-language MEDLINE search, 1985 to October 1994, was used to identify pertinent literature, including review articles. METHODS Data from

Compounds incorporating thiophene moiety, a pi excess five membered heterocycle, have attracted a great deal of research interest, owing to the therapeutic utility of the template as useful drug molecular scaffolding. We report the synthesis and pharmacological evaluation of thiophenes substituted

In a study of nonsteroidal antiinflammatory and analgesic agents, a series of 1,3-dihydro-3-(substituted phenyl)imidazo[4,5-b]pyridin-2-ones-and 3-(substituted phenyl)triazolo[4,5-b]pyridines was prepared. Many of the imidazolones were alkylated on the free nitrogen. In a modified Randall-Selitto

New pyrazoles and pyrazolo[3,4-b] pyridines were synthesized and their structure was confirmed by elemental analyses as well as IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, and mass spectral data. All the newly synthesized derivatives were evaluated in vitro for inhibitory activity against COX-1 and COX-2 enzymes and their
