furfural/necrosis

Changes of the liver following either single or repeated oral administration of furfural were studied histopathologically. Following single administration, the livers showed scattered eosinophilic globular formation and increased mitotic figures without zonal or massive necrosis. Both changes were

General toxicity (A) and vein damaging properties (B) of 5-hydroxymethyl-2-furfural (HMF) were studied in rabbits. A. 400 mg HMF was given as subcutaneous injections twice a day for a week. It was not possible to demonstrate any harmful effect of the injections on the following parameters: weight,

Furfural is used as a precursor for the manufacture of furan, furfuryl alcohol, tetrahydrofuran, and their derivatives and as an industrial solvent. Furfural is also present in numerous processed food and beverage products. NTP Toxicology and Carcinogenesis studies were conducted by administering

The aim of this paper is to evaluate the protective effect of 5-hydroxymethyl-2-furfural (5-HMF) on acute alcohol-induced liver oxidative injury in mice. 5-HMF, a maillard reaction product, was isolated from the fruits of Schisandra chinensis for animal experiments. Experimental ICR mice were

Nifedipine is a calcium channel blocker dihydropyridine that has been used in the treatment of hypertension. The production of reactive species and calcium overload are the main contributors to myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (I / R) injury. We investigated the ability of novel dihydropyridines

Distilled liquid smoke (DLS) is a result of coconut processing by-product that not only serves as a natural food preservative but also has a promising therapeutic effect. The healing potential of DLS derived from coconut (Cocos nucifera L) shell was investigated

An iron chelate, ferric nitrilotriacetate (Fe-NTA), induces renal proximal tubular necrosis associated with lipid peroxidation and oxidative DNA damage that finally leads to a high incidence of renal cell carcinoma in rodents. In the present study, we investigated what kinds of C(2-12) saturated and

In an attempt to find new types of anti-hypoxic agents from herbs, we identified 5-hydroxymethyl-2-furfural (5-HMF) as a natural agent that fulfills the criterion. 5-HMF, the final product of carbohydrate metabolism, has favorable biological effects such as anti-oxidant activity and inhibiting
