The long-term goal of this work is to develop a potassium (K+)-based intra-articular (IA) injection for osteoarthritis treatment. Within this context, the objectives of this study were to (1) demonstrate that hyperosmolar K+ solutions can suppress proinflammatory macrophage activation and (2)
Abstract.
BACKGROUND
A controlled-release (CR) form of diclofenac-potassium has been developed, which delivers 100 mg over the course of 24 hours. This formulation is administered QD and provides steady plasmatic levels of the drug.
OBJECTIVE
The aim of this study was to compare the effectiveness
BACKGROUND
Glucosamine sulfate has been recommended for treatment of knee osteoarthritis in several published guidelines. However, there are various preparations of glucosamine that may result in different pharmacokinetic and clinical outcomes.
OBJECTIVE
Comparison of clinical outcomes of two
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a common disease affecting elderly individuals. Its incidence rises sharply with age, and chondrocyte apoptosis plays a vital role in its pathogenesis. Diazoxide opens mitochondrial ATP-sensitive potassium (mitoKATP) channels and exerts multiple pharmacological effects,
BACKGROUND
In an aging society, many patients require long-term treatment. This fact is associated clearly with the simultaneous occurrence of lifestyle diseases such as hypertension, diabetes, and even osteoarthritis. Concomitant medications, which are a common practice, pose a major threat of an
To investigate the changes in the expression of voltage-gated potassium channel subunit KCNA2 in the dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons of rats with osteoarthritis (OA) pain induced by sodium monoiodoacetate and explore the mechanism.METHODS
A total
The content of different forms of tissue water was studied in the normal articular cartilage and osteoarthrosis cartilage and its structural components: collagen, potassium hyaluronate, sodium chondroitinsulphate and its complexes. In the components of cartilage matrix a few of fractions of bound
Arthroplasty is a surgical procedure to restore the function of the joint of patient suffering from knee osteoarthritis. However, postoperative functional deficits are reported even after a rehabilitation program. In order to determine the origin of functional deficits of patient suffering from knee
Hydroxyapatite crystal deposition is thought to play a role in the inflammatory episodes of osteoarthritis. A plaque of hydroxyapatite crystals was produced by local subcutaneous injection of a potassium permanganate solution. Transmission electron microscopy with X-ray energy spectroscopy was used
Non-prescription (over-the-counter [OTC]) analgesics are used for the short-term treatment of acute painful conditions of mild to moderate intensity in everyday life. Well documented safety and efficacy, a rapid onset of action and a flexible daily dosing regimen are essential in this context.
OBJECTIVE
The primary endpoint of this study was to compare the renal tolerability of amtolmetin guacyl (AMG), diclofenac and rofecoxib in elderly patients with symptomatic osteoarthritis (OA). The assessment of efficacy was the secondary endpoint.
METHODS
90 patients who satisfied the American
Background: Celecoxib is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) inhibitor. It is used for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, juvenile arthritis, and acute pain. Celecoxib has low
OBJECTIVE
Although vitamin D deficiency has been associated with osteoporosis, as well as fractures, in elderly men and women, the role of vitamin D deficiency in the pathogenesis of osteoarthritis (OA) remains controversial. In this study, we aimed to investigate the effects of vitamin D deficiency
The isoprenoid pathway produces three key metabolites: i) digoxin (a membrane sodium-potassium ATPase inhibitor which can regulate intracellular calcium/magnesium ratios), ii) dolichol (which regulates N-glycosylation of proteins), and iii) ubiquinone (a free radical scavenger), all of which are
Osteoarthritis (OA) is characterized by degenerative knees, fingers and hip joints. In OA joints, the concentration and polymerization of hyaluronic acid (HA) are changed; affecting the viscosity of the synovial fluid. Replenishing HA synovial fluid content, along with an anti-inflammatory drug
