Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBiomarker Quantitation: Analytical Considerations for Ligand Binding Assay Regression Curves and Quality Control SamplesMark DysingerAs biomarkers grow in relevance for both the design and support of therapeutics and the clinical trials associated with them, there is an ever increasing need for accurate quantitation of these biochemical entities in biological matrices. While quantifying many biotherapeutics via ligand binding assay platforms can be fairly straightforward, biomarkers present some unique challenges that must be taken into account … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 25 Aug 2012 · 8,028 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCoscinium Fenestratum Protects Against Ethanol-Induced Neurodegeneration in Adult Rat BrainWathita Phachonpai, Jintanaporn Wattanathorn, Panakaporn Wannanon et al.Alcoholism is a serious problem throughout the world. Despite intensive efforts to develop novel therapeutics for strategy efficacy against neuronal loss leading to memory impairment in alcoholism is still limited. In view of the pitfalls of psychological dependence and adverse behavioral effects of synthetic drugs, the development of low toxicity and high efficiency medicines derived from natural herbal antioxidants exhibits … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 16 Aug 2012 · 8,602 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInterplay of Cytokines and Chemokines in the Pathogenesis of Systemic Lupus ErythematosusDilip Shah, Ajay Wanchu, Archana BhatnagarProblem statement: Dysbalance of T-helper-cell (Th) cytokines and chemokines was suggested to contribute to the pathogenesis of Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE). Recent reports suggest the involvement of cytokines and chemokines in the pathogenesis of SLE, but their relationship with each other and particularly in the severity of disease, was not yet understood. We analyzed the interaction between cytokines and chemokines … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 21 Dec 2011 · 8,161 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Phenylbutazone on Pentylenetetrazole-Induced Seizure in MiceKhayatnouri MirhadiProblem statement: The Cyclooxygenases (COXs), the key enzymes that convert arachidonic acid to Prostaglandins (PGs), had been implicated in physiological and pathophysiological functions in the CNS. Non-Stesoidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs), COX inhibitors, were used largely to treat febrile condition, pain state and for prevention of and therapeutics of many diseases. However the role of PGs and NSAIDs in the seizure … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 13 Dec 2011 · 7,675 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBioautography Guided Identification of Anticandidal Compounds from A. terreus st. 1B. K. Nagaraja, R. Sripathy, C. N. Ramchand, M. SundararamanProblem statement: Saprophytic and soil inhabiting microorganisms are prolific producers of secondary metabolites with wide range of structural and functional diversity. The objective of the current study was to screen and evaluate the anti-candidal properties of soil inhabiting fungi. Approach: Preliminary dual culture assay and bioautography was used to screen the fungi with potential anti-fungal activity and direct detection of … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 1 Dec 2011 · 7,629 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRelationship Between Blood Fibrinogen Concentration and Pathological Features of Cancer Patients: A 139-case Clinical StudyDa-Yong Lu, Xue-Liang Chen, Min Huang et al.Angiogenesis and coagulation are among the most consistent host responses to the presence of a malignant tissue. Pathological angiogenesis and coagulation are often occurred in patients with solid tumors, especially in the occurrence of neoplasm metastasis and as targets for anti-metastatic drugs such as antiangiogenesis agents, coagulation-mediated agents and anticancer drugs. Since fibrinogen (Fib) is the most abundant and key … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 4 Sep 2010 · 7,859 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractErythema Multiforme Minor: A RevisionL. R. Oliveira, S.

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIn Vitro Studies on the Effect of Phototoxicity of A New Photosensitizer Extracted from Flowers and Aerial Parts of Cichorium pumilumM-Ali H. Al-Akhras, Amr Amin, Karima Mohammad et al.New photosensitizers have been extracted from the flowers and aerial parts of the Cichorium pumilum Jacq (chicory). Chicory grows naturally in local wild areas and is known to cause quick death of only white sheep during its flowering season in autumn. Some of those isolated photosensitizers are yet to be further characterized. Preliminary investigations show a high degradation of isolated … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 7,753 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCPI-1189 Protects against TNBS-induced Colitis in a Rodent ModelBeverley Greenwood-Van Meerveld, Karl TylerNitrone-related therapeutics (NRTs) represents a new class of molecules that may be effective in treating inflammatory conditions. The goal of this study was to examine the effect of CPI-1189 in a rat model of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Colonic inflammation was induced by an enema of trinitrobenzene sulfonic acid (TNBS). Saline-enema treated rats served as controls. After 3 days colonic … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 7,168 accessesView PDFCite
