ketotifen and Hypertrophy

ketotifen has been researched along with Hypertrophy in 2 studies

Ketotifen: A cycloheptathiophene blocker of histamine H1 receptors and release of inflammatory mediators. It has been proposed for the treatment of asthma, rhinitis, skin allergies, and anaphylaxis.
ketotifen : An organic heterotricyclic compound that is 4,9-dihydro-10H-benzo[4,5]cyclohepta[1,2-b]thiophen-10-one which is substituted at position 4 by a 1-methylpiperidin-4-ylidene group. A blocker of histamine H1 receptors with a stabilising action on mast cells, it is used (usually as its hydrogen fumarate salt) for the treatment of asthma, where it may take several weeks to exert its full effect.

Hypertrophy: General increase in bulk of a part or organ due to CELL ENLARGEMENT and accumulation of FLUIDS AND SECRETIONS, not due to tumor formation, nor to an increase in the number of cells (HYPERPLASIA).

"Mucosal mastocytosis was first observed on day 26 postinfection and occurred only in the ileum of tapeworm-infected rats."1.30Hymenolepsis diminuta: mucosal mastocytosis and intestinal smooth muscle hypertrophy occur in tapeworm-infected rats. ( Bass, P; Dwinell, MB; Oaks, JA; Wise, RM, 1998)
"Plexiform neurofibromas are either diffuse or nodular, the latter form being much more frequent."1.29[Exclusive nodular plexiform neurofibroma. An unusual case of neurofibromatosis type 1]. ( Benchikhi, H; Revuz, J; Vidaud, D; Wechsler, J; Wolkenstein, P; Zeller, J, 1995)
