Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAcute Hypotensive and Diuretic Activities of Chamaemelum nobile Aqueous Extract in Normal RatsN. A. Zeggwagh, J. B. Michel, M. EddouksThis study aims to evaluate the effect of Chamaemelum nobile (Cn) intravenous injection on cardiovascular and renal function of normal rats. Intravenous bolus injection of Cn at the dose of 50, 100 and 200 mg kg-1, produced dose dependent reduction in arterial blood pressure (p<0.001). Significant reduction in heart frequency was observed after Cn injection at a dose of 100 … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2007 · 7,115 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAbnormal Glucose Regulation and Treatment Strategies for Insulin Resistance HIV-Infected PatientsSteven GrinspoonHIV-infected patients receiving highly active antiretroviral therapy often demonstrate abnormalities in glucose regulation, in association with changes in fat distribution[1,2]. In the majority of cases, these abnormalities are best characterized by insulin resistance and impaired glucose tolerance, rather than overt diabetes mellitus and fasting hyperglycemia. Insulin resistance may result from direct effects of antiretroviral therapy, changes in fat distribution or … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2006 · 6,387 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractγ-Aninobutyric acid (GABA) suppresses antigen-specific immune responses in ovalbumin γ(OVA)-immunized BALB/c miceTohru Sakai, Hiroko Okada, Mitsuo Kise et al.γ-Aminobutruic acid (GABA) is known to be a ubiquitous inhibitory neurotransmitter in the central nervous system. Furthermore, recent studies have shown that GABA modulates cardiovascular and respiratory functions. In this study, we examined the effect of GABA on antigen (Ag)-specific immune responses and elucidated the mechanisms underlying those effects in ovalbumin (OVA)-immunized BALB/c mice. OVA-specific proliferative responses were decreased in … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 6,501 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHeparin-PF4 Antibodies in Heparin Induced Thrombocytopenia: Its Relationship with FcgRIIa PolymorphismMeganathan Kannan, Firdos Ahmad, Sarfraz Ahmad et al.We did the pilot study, in an attempt to determine the prevalence of HIT in Indians and determine its relationship, if any, to FcγRIIa polymorphism, the occurrence of heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT) was investigated in 33 Indian patients undergoing cardiovascular surgery (CVS) who received unfractionated heparin (UFH). Platelet counts were performed prior to the initiation of UFH therapy and 5-16 days, … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2005 · 7,432 accessesView PDFCite
