The aim of the present study was to evaluate the anti-inflammatory effects of citrulline (Cit), glucosamine (GlcN) and N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) on synovial cells, which are primarily involved in inflammatory joint diseases. The combined effect of Cit, GlcN and GlcNAc on synovial cell
OBJECTIVE
This study had investigated the anti-inflammatory activity of a seed lectin (LAL) isolated from Lonchocarpus araripensis.
METHODS
LAL was purified by affinity chromatography (chitin column) and ion exchange chromatography (DEAE-Sephacel). In vitro LAL was tested for hemagglutinating
Acute inflammation is often observed during acute lung injury (ALI) and acute respiratory distress syndrome. Glucosamine is known to act as an anti-inflammatory molecule. The effects of glucosamine on acute lung inflammation and its associated mechanisms remain unclear. The present study sought to
Inflammation is a complex process involving cytokine production to regulate host defense cascades in order to clear pathogenic agents. Upregulation of inflammatory cytokines, such as IL-6 and IL-8 by bacteria infection, occurs in pulmonary tissues and has been demonstrated to be critical to the lung
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the effect of 12 weeks of strength training in combination with a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), glucosamine, or placebo on muscle cross-sectional area (CSA), strength (primary outcome parameters), and function, power, pain, and satellite cell number (secondary
The study of the antiexudative activities of voltaren, indomethacin and piroxicam in combination with glucosamine on the model of carrageenan inflammation showed that the combination makes it possible to decrease the effective doses of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs by 2-2.7 times with the
Glucosamine sulfate (SGlc) has been known to be effective in controlling osteoarthritis (OA) symptoms in several clinical studies. However, the mechanisms of this positive effect of SGlc in human OA still remain elusive. Therefore, first, the effects of SGlc on the differentiation of osteoblast-like
Glucosamine (GS) is well known for the treatment of inflam-mation. However, the mechanism and efficacy of GS for skin inflammation are unclear. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects and mechanism of GS in the mouse 12-O-tetradecanoyl 13-acetate (TPA)-induced ear edema model. TPA-induced
Cerebral inflammation plays a crucial role in the pathophysiology of ischemic stroke and is involved in all stages of the ischemic cascade. Fullerene derivatives, such as fullerenol (OH-F) are radical scavengers acting as neuroprotective agents while glucosamine (GlcN) attenuates cerebral
Pain is one of the major symptoms of the osteoarthritis (OA). The objective of the study was to evaluate impact of combined therapy with diclofenac, aescin and original glucosamine sulfate on pain severity in patients with OA of different localizations in real life clinical settings in Russia and
Tissue-engineering strategies offer promising tools for repairing cartilage damage; however, these strategies suffer from limitations under pathological conditions. As a model disease for these types of nonideal systems, the inflammatory environment in an osteoarthritic (OA) joint limits the
We investigated the neuroprotective effect of glucosamine (GlcN) in a rat middle cerebral artery occlusion model. At the highest dose used, intraperitoneal GlcN reduced infarct volume to 14.3% ± 7.4% that of untreated controls and afforded a reduction in motor impairment and neurological deficits.
We developed a novel technique of bi-enzyme single-step hydrolysis, using recombinant chitosanase (McChoA) and exo-β-D-glucosaminidase (AorCsxA) constructed previously in our lab, to degrade chitosan. The hydrolysis product was shown by HPLC, FTIR, and chemical analyses to be a mixture (termed "GC")
OBJECTIVE
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of sulfated glucosamine (SGlc) on the regulation of inflammatory cytokines and profiles involved in immunological activities. Changes in the inflammatory profiles of lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-activated phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate
OBJECTIVE
Glucosamine hydrochloride (GH) and chondroitin sulfate (CS) are commonly used for the treatment of osteoarthritis (OA). The aim of this study was to assess their effects, alone and in combination, on preventing aggrecan degradation and inflammation in an in vitro model of OA.
METHODS
To
