Dermatological Toxicities of Bruton's Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitors.
    American journal of clinical dermatology, 2020, Volume: 21, Issue:6

    The development of Bruton's tyrosine kinase (BTK) inhibitors represents a major breakthrough in the treatment of chronic lymphocytic leukemia and other B cell malignancies. The first-generation inhibitor ibrutinib works by covalent irreversible binding to BTK, a non-receptor tyrosine kinase of the TEC (transient erythroblastopenia of childhood) family that plays a critical role in the B-cell receptor signaling pathway. It also induces an 'off-target' inhibition of a range of other kinases including (but not limited to) epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), SRC, and other kinases of the TEC family (interleukin-2-inducible T-cell kinase [ITK], Tec, BMX). Dermatological toxicities are among the most common toxicities of ibrutinib, but remain of mild to moderate intensity in most cases and are readily manageable. Their incidence is highest during the first year of treatment and declines over time. In addition, it has been postulated that ibrutinib-related dermatologic adverse events are mediated by the direct binding to both BTK and other 'off-target' kinases. Bruising, ecchymoses, and petechiae represent the most characteristic dermatologic adverse events. Nail and hair changes are also common, as skin infections (opportunistic infections including herpes simplex and herpes zoster virus reactivations, and Staphylococcus aureus superinfection), folliculitis, and other types of rashes. Panniculitis, aphthous-like ulcerations with stomatitis, neutrophilic dermatosis, peripheral edema, and skin cracking can also occur. Next-generation BTK inhibitors, acalabrutinib and zanubrutinib, have been designed to optimize BTK inhibition and minimize off-target inhibition of alternative kinases (Tec, ITK, EGFR, SRC-family kinases). These drugs have been recently FDA-approved for relapsed or refractory mantle cell lymphoma. Although the overall incidence of their toxicities is expected to be more limited, acalubrutinib and zanubrutinib are associated with a range of dermatologic toxic effects that appear to be similar to those previously described with ibrutinib, including bruising and ecchymoses, panniculitis, human herpesvirus infections, cellulitis, and skin rash. In particular, both drugs induce skin bleeding events in more than 30% of patients treated. However, the available dermatological data are still rather limited and will have to be consolidated prospectively. This review article analyses the wide spectrum of dermatological toxicities that can be encountered w

    Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS) is a novel respiratory illness firstly reported in Saudi Arabia in 2012. It is caused by a new corona virus, called MERS corona virus (MERS-CoV). Most people who have MERS-CoV infection developed severe acute respiratory illness.. This work is done to determine the clinical characteristics and the outcome of intensive care unit (ICU) admitted patients with confirmed MERS-CoV infection.. This study included 32 laboratory confirmed MERS corona virus infected patients who were admitted into ICU. It included 20 (62.50%) males and 12 (37.50%) females. The mean age was 43.99 ± 13.03 years. Diagnosis was done by real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (rRT-PCR) test for corona virus on throat swab, sputum, tracheal aspirate, or bronchoalveolar lavage specimens. Clinical characteristics, co-morbidities and outcome were reported for all subjects.. Most MERS corona patients present with fever, cough, dyspnea, sore throat, runny nose and sputum. The presence of abdominal symptoms may indicate bad prognosis. Prolonged duration of symptoms before patients' hospitalization, prolonged duration of mechanical ventilation and hospital stay, bilateral radiological pulmonary infiltrates, and hypoxemic respiratory failure were found to be strong predictors of mortality in such patients. Also, old age, current smoking, smoking severity, presence of associated co-morbidities like obesity, diabetes mellitus, chronic heart diseases, COPD, malignancy, renal failure, renal transplantation and liver cirrhosis are associated with a poor outcome of ICU admitted MERS corona virus infected patients.. Plasma HO-1, ferritin, p21, and NQO1 were all elevated at baseline in CKD participants. Plasma HO-1 and urine NQO1 levels each inversely correlated with eGFR (. SnPP can be safely administered and, after its injection, the resulting changes in plasma HO-1, NQO1, ferritin, and p21 concentrations can provide information as to antioxidant gene responsiveness/reserves in subjects with and without kidney disease.. A Study with RBT-1, in Healthy Volunteers and Subjects with Stage 3-4 Chronic Kidney Disease, NCT0363002 and NCT03893799.. HFNC did not significantly modify work of breathing in healthy subjects. However, a significant reduction in the minute volume was achieved, capillary [Formula: see text] remaining constant, which suggests a reduction in dead-space ventilation with flows > 20 L/min. (ClinicalTrials.gov registration NCT02495675).. 3 组患者手术时间、术中显性失血量及术后 1 周血红蛋白下降量比较差异均无统计学意义(. 对于肥胖和超重的膝关节单间室骨关节炎患者,采用 UKA 术后可获满意短中期疗效,远期疗效尚需进一步随访观察。.. Decreased muscle strength was identified at both time points in patients with hEDS/HSD. The evolution of most muscle strength parameters over time did not significantly differ between groups. Future studies should focus on the effectiveness of different types of muscle training strategies in hEDS/HSD patients.. These findings support previous adverse findings of e-cigarette exposure on neurodevelopment in a mouse model and provide substantial evidence of persistent adverse behavioral and neuroimmunological consequences to adult offspring following maternal e-cigarette exposure during pregnancy. https://doi.org/10.1289/EHP6067.. This RCT directly compares a neoadjuvant chemotherapy regimen with a standard CROSS regimen in terms of overall survival for patients with locally advanced ESCC. The results of this RCT will provide an answer for the controversy regarding the survival benefits between the two treatment strategies.. NCT04138212, date of registration: October 24, 2019.. Results of current investigation indicated that milk type and post fermentation cooling patterns had a pronounced effect on antioxidant characteristics, fatty acid profile, lipid oxidation and textural characteristics of yoghurt. Buffalo milk based yoghurt had more fat, protein, higher antioxidant capacity and vitamin content. Antioxidant and sensory characteristics of T. If milk is exposed to excessive amounts of light, Vitamins B. The two concentration of ZnO nanoparticles in the ambient air produced two different outcomes. The lower concentration resulted in significant increases in Zn content of the liver while the higher concentration significantly increased Zn in the lungs (p < 0.05). Additionally, at the lower concentration, Zn content was found to be lower in brain tissue (p < 0.05). Using TEM/EDX we detected ZnO nanoparticles inside the cells in the lungs, kidney and liver. Inhaling ZnO NP at the higher concentration increased the levels of mRNA of the following genes in the lungs: Mt2 (2.56 fold), Slc30a1 (1.52 fold) and Slc30a5 (2.34 fold). At the lower ZnO nanoparticle concentration, only Slc30a7 mRNA levels in the lungs were up (1.74 fold). Thus the two air concentrations of ZnO nanoparticles produced distinct effects on the expression of the Zn-homeostasis related genes.. Until adverse health effects of ZnO nanoparticles deposited in organs such as lungs are further investigated and/or ruled out, the exposure to ZnO nanoparticles in aerosols should be avoided or minimised.

Regulated necrosis and its implications in toxicology.
    Toxicology, 2015, Jul-03, Volume: 333

    Recent research developments have revealed that caspase-dependent apoptosis is not the sole form of regulated cell death. Caspase-independent, but genetically regulated, forms of cell death include pyroptosis, necroptosis, parthanatos, and the recently discovered ferroptosis and autosis. Importantly, regulated necrosis can be modulated by small molecule inhibitors/activators, confirming the cell autonomous mechanism of these forms of cell death. The success of small molecule-mediated manipulation of regulated necrosis has produced great changes in the field of cell death research, and has also brought about significant changes in the fields of pharmacology as well as toxicology. In this review, we intend to summarize the modes of regulated cell death other than apoptosis, and discuss their implications in toxicology.

Resveratrol improves the therapeutic efficacy of bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells in rats with severe acute pancreatitis.
    International immunopharmacology, 2020, Volume: 80

    Bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) are effective in the treatment of severe acute pancreatitis (SAP), but their therapeutic effects could still be improved. In order to optimize the clinical application of BMSCs, we adopted the strategy of resveratrol (Res) pretreatment of BMSCs (Res-BMSCs) and applied it to a rat model of sodium taurocholate (NaT)-induced acute pancreatitis.. SAP was induced by injection of 3% NaT into the pancreatic duct and successful induction of SAP occurred after 12 h. Rats were treated with BMSCs, Res or BMSCs primed with Res at 40 mmol/L, Vandetanib (ZD6474) daily oral dosages of 50 mg/kg vandetanib.. Res stimulated BMSCs to secrete vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGFA), activated the downstream phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate 3-kinase (PI3K)/protein kinase B (AKT) signaling pathway, and inhibited pancreatic cell apoptosis. In addition, conditioned medium (CM) from Res-BMSCs enhanced the proliferation of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) in vitro, increased resistance to apoptosis and promoted the expression of angiogenesis-related proteins CD31, VEGF and VEGFR2 in pancreatic tissue, but Vandetanib partly abolished these effects by blocking the VEGFA- mediated pathway.. Resveratrol-preprocessed BMSCs can activate the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway in pancreatic cells and HUVECs through paracrine release of VEGFA; thus, achieving the therapeutic effect of resisting apoptosis of pancreatic cells and promoting regeneration of damaged blood vessels. Res pretreatment may be a new strategy to improve the therapeutic effect of BMSCs on SAP.

Mito-tempo protects against acute liver injury but induces limited secondary apoptosis during the late phase of acetaminophen hepatotoxicity.
    Archives of toxicology, 2019, Volume: 93, Issue:1

    We previously reported that delayed treatment with Mito-tempo (MT), a mitochondria-targeted superoxide dismutase mimetic, protects against the early phase of acetaminophen (APAP) hepatotoxicity by inhibiting peroxynitrite formation. However, whether this protection is sustained to the late phase of toxicity is unknown. To investigate the late protection, C57Bl/6J mice were treated with 300 mg/kg APAP followed by 20 mg/kg MT 1.5 h or 3 h later. We found that both MT treatments protected against the late phase of APAP hepatotoxicity at 12 and 24 h. Surprisingly, MT-treated mice demonstrated a significant increase in apoptotic hepatocytes, while the necrotic phenotype was observed almost exclusively in mice treated with APAP alone. In addition, there was a significant increase in caspase-3 activity and cleavage in the livers of MT-treated mice. Immunostaining for active caspase-3 revealed that the positively stained hepatocytes were exclusively in centrilobular areas. Treatment with the pan-caspase inhibitor ZVD-fmk (10 mg/kg) 2 h post-APAP neutralized this caspase activation and provided additional protection against APAP hepatotoxicity. Treatment with N-acetylcysteine, the current standard of care for APAP poisoning, protected but did not induce this apoptotic phenotype. Mechanistically, MT treatment inhibited APAP-induced RIP3 kinase expression, and RIP3-deficient mice showed caspase activation and apoptotic morphology in hepatocytes analogous to MT treatment. These data suggest that while necrosis is the primary cause of cell death after APAP hepatotoxicity, treatment with the antioxidant MT may switch the mode of cell death to secondary apoptosis in some cells. Modulation of mitochondrial oxidative stress and RIP3 kinase expression play critical roles in this switch.

AdipoRon Protects Against Secondary Brain Injury After Intracerebral Hemorrhage via Alleviating Mitochondrial Dysfunction: Possible Involvement of AdipoR1-AMPK-PGC1α Pathway.
    Neurochemical research, 2019, Volume: 44, Issue:7

    Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is a stroke subtype that is associated with high mortality and disability rate. Mitochondria plays a crucial role in neuronal survival after ICH. This study first showed that activation of adiponectin receptor 1 (AdipoR1) by AdipoRon could attenuate mitochondrial dysfunction after ICH. In vivo, experimental ICH model was established by autologous blood injection in mice. AdipoRon was injected intraperitoneally (50 mg/kg). Immunofluorescence staining were performed to explicit the location of AdipoR1, AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ coactivator-1a (PGC1α). The PI staining was used to quantify neuronal survival. The expression of AdipoR1 and its downstream signaling molecules were detected by Western blotting. In vitro, 10 μM oxyhemoglobin (OxyHb) was used to induce the neuronal injury in SH-SY5Y cells. Annexin V-FITC/PI staining was used to detect the neuronal apoptosis and necrosis. Mitochondrial membrane potential (Δψm) was measured by a JC-1 kit and mitochondrial mass was quantified by mitochondrial fluorescent probe. In vivo, PI staining showed that the administration of AdipoRon could reduce neuronal death at 72 h after ICH in mice. AdipoRon treatment enhanced ATP levels and reduced ROS levels in perihematoma tissues, and increased the protein expression of AdipoR1, P-AMPK, PGC1α, NRF1 and TFAM. In vitro, the JC-1 staining and Mito-tracker™ Green showed that AdipoRon significantly alleviated OxyHb-induced collapse of Δψm and enhanced mitochondrial mass. Moreover, flow cytometry analysis indicated that the neurons treated with AdipoRon showed low necrotic and apoptotic rate. AdipoRon alleviates mitochondrial dysfunction after intracerebral hemorrhage via the AdipoR1-AMPK-PGC1α pathway.

HS-1371, a novel kinase inhibitor of RIP3-mediated necroptosis.
    Experimental & molecular medicine, 2018, 09-20, Volume: 50, Issue:9

    Necroptosis is a type of programmed cell death that usually occurs under apoptosis-deficient conditions. Receptor-interacting protein kinase-3 (RIP3, or RIPK3) is a central player in necroptosis, and its kinase activity is essential for downstream necroptotic signaling events. Since RIP3 kinase activity has been associated with various diseases, the development of specific RIP3 inhibitors is an attractive strategy for therapeutic application. In this study, we identified a potent RIP3 inhibitor, HS-1371, by the extensive screening of chemical libraries focused on kinases. HS-1371 directly binds to RIP3 in an ATP-competitive and time-independent manner, providing a mechanism of action. Moreover, the compound inhibited TNF-induced necroptosis but did not inhibit TNF-induced apoptosis, indicating that this novel inhibitor has a specific inhibitory effect on RIP3-mediated necroptosis via the suppression of RIP3 kinase activity. Our results suggest that HS-1371 could serve as a potential preventive or therapeutic agent for diseases involving RIP3 hyperactivation.

Potential Implications for Designing Drugs Against the Brown Spider Venom Phospholipase-D.
    Journal of cellular biochemistry, 2017, Volume: 118, Issue:4

    Loxoscelism refers to the clinical symptoms that develop after brown spider bites. Brown spider venoms contain several phospholipase-D isoforms, which are the main toxins responsible for both the cutaneous and systemic effects of loxoscelism. Understanding of the phospholipase-D catalytic mechanism is crucial for the development of specific treatment that could reverse the toxic effects caused by the spider bite. Based on enzymatic, biological, structural, and thermodynamic tests, we show some features suitable for designing drugs against loxoscelism. Firstly, through molecular docking and molecular dynamics predictions, we found three different molecules (Suramin, Vu0155056, and Vu0359595) that were able to bind the enzyme's catalytic site and interact with catalytically important residues (His12 or His47) and with the Mg

Effects of fisetin on hyperhomocysteinemia-induced experimental endothelial dysfunction and vascular dementia.
    Canadian journal of physiology and pharmacology, 2017, Volume: 95, Issue:1

    This study was designed to investigate the effects of fisetin (FST) on hyperhomocysteinemia (HHcy)-induced experimental endothelial dysfunction (ED) and vascular dementia (VaD) in rats. Wistar rats were randomly divided into 8 groups: control, vehicle control, l-methionine, FST (5, 10, and 25 mg/kg, p.o.), FST-per se (25 mg/kg, p.o.), and donepezil (0.1 mg/kg, p.o.). l-Methionine administration (1.7 g/kg, p.o.) for 32 days induced HHcy. ED and VaD induced by HHcy were determined by vascular reactivity measurements, behavioral analysis using Morris water maze and Y-maze, along with a biochemical and histological evaluation of thoracic aorta and brain tissues. Administration of l-methionine developed behavioral deficits; triggered brain lipid peroxidation (LPO); compromised brain acetylcholinesterase activity (AChE); and reduced the levels of brain superoxide dismutase (SOD), brain catalase (CAT), brain reduced glutathione (GSH), and serum nitrite; and increased serum homocysteine and cholesterol levels. These effects were accompanied by decreased vascular NO bioavailability, marked intimal thickening of the aorta, and multiple necrotic foci in brain cortex. HHcy-induced alterations in the activities of SOD, CAT, GSH, AChE, LPO, behavioral deficits, ED, and histological aberrations were significantly attenuated by treatment with fisetin in a dose-dependent manner. Collectively, our results indicate that fisetin exerts endothelial and neuroprotective effects against HHcy-induced ED and VaD.

Alectinib induced CNS radiation necrosis in an ALK+NSCLC patient with a remote (7 years) history of brain radiation.
    Lung cancer (Amsterdam, Netherlands), 2016, Volume: 96

    Alectinib is a second generation ALK inhibitor that has significant clinical activity in central nervous system (CNS) metastases in anaplastic lymphoma kinase (ALK)-rearranged non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Pseudoprogression (PsP) due to radiation necrosis during alecitnib treatment of central nervous system (CNS) metastases from ALK-rearranged NSCLC as been reported. Hence, distinguishing radiation-related PsP from alectinib-induced radiographic changes is important to avoid erroneous early trial discontinuation and abandonment of an effective treatment. However, it remains difficult to assess casuality of radiation necrosis is related to recent direct radiation or induced by alectinib treatment or both. It is also unknown how long from previous radiation can alectinib still induce radiation necrosis. Here we reported a crizotinib-refractory ALK-positive NSCLC patient who develop radiation necrosis in one of his metastatic CNS lesions after approximately 12 months of alectinib treatment who otherwise had on-going CNS response on alectinib. His most recent radiation to his CNS metastases was 7 years prior to the start of alectinib. This case illustrates that in the setting of pror CNS radiation, given the significant clinical activity of alectinib in CNS metastases in ALK-positive NSCLC patients the risk of CNS radiation necrosis remains long after previous radiation to the CNS metastases has been completed and can occur after durable response of treatment.

Endothelin-1 induces LIMK2-mediated programmed necrotic neuronal death independent of NOS activity.
    Molecular brain, 2015, Oct-06, Volume: 8

    Recently, we have reported that LIM kinase 2 (LIMK2) involves programmed necrotic neuronal deaths induced by aberrant cyclin D1 expression following status epilepticus (SE). Up-regulation of LIMK2 expression induces neuronal necrosis by impairment of dynamin-related protein 1 (DRP1)-mediated mitochondrial fission. However, we could not elucidate the upstream effecter for LIMK2-mediated neuronal death. Thus, we investigated the role of endothelin-1 (ET-1) in LIMK2-mediated neuronal necrosis, since ET-1 involves neuronal death via various pathways.. Following SE, ET-1 concentration and its mRNA were significantly increased in the hippocampus with up-regulation of ETB receptor expression. BQ788 (an ETB receptor antagonist) effectively attenuated SE-induced neuronal damage as well as reduction in LIMK2 mRNA/protein expression. In addition, BQ788 alleviated up-regulation of Rho kinase 1 (ROCK1) expression and impairment of DRP1-mediated mitochondrial fission in CA1 neurons following SE. BQ788 also attenuated neuronal death and up-regulation of LIMK2 expression induced by exogenous ET-1 injection.. These findings suggest that ET-1 may be one of the upstream effectors for programmed neuronal necrosis through abnormal LIMK2 over-expression by ROCK1.

Anti-snake venom activities of ethanolic extract of fruits of Piper longum L. (Piperaceae) against Russell's viper venom: characterization of piperine as active principle.
    Journal of ethnopharmacology, 2013, May-20, Volume: 147, Issue:2

    Piper longum L. fruits have been traditionally used against snakebites in north-eastern and southern region of India.. To examine the ability of ethanolic extract of fruits of Piper longum L., Piperaceae (PLE) and piperine, one of the main active principles of Piper longum, to inhibit the Russell's viper (Doboia russelii, Viperidae) snake venom activities.. Anti-snake venom activities of ethanolic extract of fruits of Piper longum L. (Piperaceae) and piperine against Russell's viper venom was studied in embryonated fertile chicken eggs, mice and rats by using various models as follows: inhibition of venom lethal action, inhibition of venom haemorrhagic action (in vitro), inhibition of venom haemorrhagic action (in vivo), inhibition of venom necrotizing action, inhibition of venom defibrinogenating action, inhibition of venom induced paw edema, inhibition of venom induced mast cell degranulation, creatine kinase assay and assay for catalase activity.. PLE was found to inhibit the venom induced haemorrhage in embryonated fertile chicken eggs. Administration of PLE and piperine significantly (p<0.01) inhibited venom induced lethality, haemorrhage, necrosis, defibrinogenation and inflammatory paw edema in mice in a dose dependent manner. PLE and piperine also significantly (p<0.01) reduced venom induced mast cell degranulation in rats. Venom induced decrease in catalase enzyme levels in mice kidney tissue and increase in creatine kinase enzyme levels in mice serum were significantly (p<0.01) reversed by administration of both PLE and piperine.. PLE possesses good anti-snake venom properties and piperine is one of the compounds responsible for the effective venom neutralizing ability of the plant.

SOD1 and MitoTEMPO partially prevent mitochondrial permeability transition pore opening, necrosis, and mitochondrial apoptosis after ATP depletion recovery.
    Free radical biology & medicine, 2010, Nov-30, Volume: 49, Issue:10

    Generation of excessive reactive oxygen species (ROS) leads to mitochondrial dysfunction, apoptosis, and necrosis in renal ischemia-reperfusion (IR) injury. Previously we showed that lentiviral vector-mediated overexpression of superoxide dismutase-1 (SOD1) in proximal tubular epithelial cells (LLC-PK(1)) reduced cytotoxicity in an in vitro model of IR injury. Here, we examined the effects of SOD1 overexpression on mitochondrial signaling after ATP depletion-recovery (ATP-DR). To examine the role of mitochondrial ROS, a subset of cells was treated with the mitochondrial antioxidant MitoTEMPO. ATP-DR-mediated increase in mitochondrial calcium, loss of mitochondrial membrane potential, and increase in mitochondrial permeability transition pore (MPTP) were attenuated by SOD1 and MitoTEMPO (P<0.01). SOD1 prevented ATP-DR-induced mitochondrial Bax translocation, although the release of proapoptotic proteins from mitochondria was not prevented by SOD1 alone and required the presence of both SOD1 and MitoTEMPO. SOD1 suppressed the increase in c-jun phosphorylation, suggesting that JNK signaling regulates Bax translocation to mitochondria via ROS. ATP-DR-mediated changes in MPTP and mitochondrial signaling increased necrosis and apoptosis, both of which were partially attenuated by SOD1 and MitoTEMPO. These studies show that SOD1 and MitoTEMPO preserve mitochondrial integrity and attenuate ATP-DR-mediated necrosis and apoptosis.

Antagonism of the cannabinoid CB-1 receptor protects rat liver against ischaemia-reperfusion injury complicated by endotoxaemia.
    Gut, 2009, Volume: 58, Issue:8

    Endotoxaemia can complicate hepatic ischaemia-reperfusion (IR) injury. Endocannabinoids appear to modulate the haemodynamic alterations and cytokine response induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS). Thus, we aimed to determine the effect of the endocannabinoid CB1-receptor antagonist Rimonabant in a model of hepatic IR injury complicated by endotoxaemia.. Sprague-Dawley rats pre-treated with Rimonabant 3 or 10 mg/kg or vehicle underwent partial hepatic IR and lipopolysaccharide (LPS) injection at reperfusion. Liver injury was evaluated by serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and necrotic-cell count. The inflammatory response was investigated by assessing hepatic neutrophil infiltration, tumour necrosis factor alpha (TNFalpha), interferon gamma (IFNgamma), interleukin 6 (IL6), and suppressor of cytokine signalling (SOCS) 1 and SOCS3 gene expression by real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). Systolic blood pressure and hepatic blood flow were measured as haemodynamic parameters. Finally, lipid peroxidation, glutathione status, and immunoreactive CB1 receptor expression in the liver were also determined.. Liver injury and neutrophil infiltration occurring in the late-phase of LPS-enhanced IR were significantly reduced by CB1-receptor antagonism. Rimonabant-treated rats showed significantly higher gene expression of IFNgamma, IL6, SOCS1 and SOCS3 in "early" reperfusion, while that of TNFalpha was reduced. These findings were associated with increased STAT3 phosphorylation. Furthermore, CB1-receptor antagonism significantly improved the oxidative injury and haemodynamic alterations occurring during reperfusion in untreated rats. Finally, CB1-receptor immunoreactivity was upregulated early after reperfusion.. This study demonstrates that CB1-receptor antagonism protects the liver against LPS-enhanced IR injury by interfering with the inflammatory response that causes the late, neutrophil-dependent phase of reperfusion injury, although the prevention of the transient endotoxin-related hypotension occurring early during reperfusion may be also involved.

Inhibition of prostaglandin D synthase suppresses muscular necrosis.
    The American journal of pathology, 2009, Volume: 174, Issue:5

    Duchenne muscular dystrophy is a fatal muscle wasting disease that is characterized by a deficiency in the protein dystrophin. Previously, we reported that the expression of hematopoietic prostaglandin D synthase (HPGDS) appeared in necrotic muscle fibers from patients with either Duchenne muscular dystrophy or polymyositis. HPGDS is responsible for the production of the inflammatory mediator, prostaglandin D(2). In this paper, we validated the hypothesis that HPGDS has a role in the etiology of muscular necrosis. We investigated the expression of HPGDS/ prostaglandin D(2) signaling using two different mouse models of muscle necrosis, that is, bupivacaine-induced muscle necrosis and the mdx mouse, which has a genetic muscular dystrophy. We treated each mouse model with the HPGDS-specific inhibitor, HQL-79, and measured both necrotic muscle volume and selected cytokine mRNA levels. We confirmed that HPGDS expression was induced in necrotic muscle fibers in both bupivacaine-injected muscle and mdx mice. After administration of HQL-79, necrotic muscle volume was significantly decreased in both mouse models. Additionally, mRNA levels of both CD11b and transforming growth factor beta1 were significantly lower in HQL-79-treated mdx mice than in vehicle-treated animals. We also demonstrated that HQL-79 suppressed prostaglandin D(2) production and improved muscle strength in the mdx mouse. Our results show that HPGDS augments inflammation, which is followed by muscle injury. Furthermore, the inhibition of HPGDS ameliorates muscle necrosis even in cases of genetic muscular dystrophy.

Mechanism of neuroprotection by donepezil pretreatment in rat cortical neurons chronically treated with donepezil.
    Journal of neuroscience research, 2008, Volume: 86, Issue:16

    Previously, we showed that in rat cortical neurons, chronic donepezil treatment (10 microM, 4 days) up-regulates nicotinic receptors (nAChR) and makes neurons more sensitive to the neuroprotective effect of donepezil. Here we examined the mechanism of donepezil-induced neuroprotection in neurons chronically treated with donepezil. The mechanism of neuroprotection was examined under different conditions of exposure to glutamate, acute and moderate, that induce cell death associated with necrotic and apoptotic cell death, respectively. Concomitant treatment with antagonists of nAChRs but not muscarinic receptors inhibited donepezil pretreatment-induced neuroprotection against acute glutamate treatment-induced death. Donepezil pretreatment prevented acute glutamate- and ionomycin-induced neurotoxicity, but not S-nitrosocysteine-induced neurotoxicity, suggesting that donepezil protects neurons via nAChR at levels before nitric oxide synthase activation against acute glutamate neurotoxicity. Concomitant treatment with antagonists of nAChR or phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) signaling inhibitors significantly inhibited neuroprotection against moderate glutamate neurotoxicity and decreased the phosphorylation level of Akt. Neuroprotection was also inhibited by treatment with inhibitor of mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) kinase. These results suggest that donepezil protects neurons against moderate glutamate neurotoxicity via nAChR-PI3K-Akt and MAPK signaling pathways. This study provides novel insight into the mechanism of donepezil-induced neuroprotection that involves nAChR up-regulation.

Administration of VEGF receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor increases VEGF production causing angiogenesis in human small-cell lung cancer xenografts.
    International journal of oncology, 2008, Volume: 33, Issue:3

    Angiogenesis is mediated mainly by vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), and VEGF causes rapid growth in cancers, including human small-cell lung cancer (SCLC). The anti-angiogenic strategy of treating cancer using VEGF receptor (VEGFR) inhibition is currently of great interest. We tested the effects of the VEGFR2 tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) vandetanib on the proliferation of two kinds of SCLC cell lines: SBC-1 cells, with detectable VEGFR2 expression and MS-1-L cells, without detectable VEGFR2 expression. To evaluate the anti-tumor and anti-angiogenic effects of vandetanib in vivo, we grafted SBC-1 and MS-1-L cells into mice. After a 3-week treatment, we measured the tumor size and histologically evaluated necrosis and apoptosis using H&E and TUNEL staining, respectively. The microvessels in the xenografts were also quantified by immunostaining of CD31. Vandetanib did not affect the proliferation of SBC-1 cells, but stimulated the growth of MS-1-L cells. In the SCLC xenograft model, vandetanib inhibited growth and tumor angiogenesis in a dose-dependent manner in SBC-1 xenografts. Vandetanib inhibited the growth of MS-1-L xenografts at a low dose (<12.5 mg/kg/day), but it did not affect tumor size or change microvessel counts at a higher dose. Interestingly, secretion of VEGF increased significantly in the MS-1-L cell line in the presence of a high dose of vandetanib in vitro. The effects of vandetanib on tumor angiogenesis were different in SBC-1 and MS-1-L cell lines. Production of angiogenic factors such as VEGF by the tumor potentially stimulates tumor angiogenesis and results in the acquisition of resistance to VEGFR TKI.

Effects of halofuginone on fibrosis formation secondary to experimentally induced subglottic trauma.
    The Laryngoscope, 2007, Volume: 117, Issue:2

    The aim of the study was to assess the antifibrotic effect of systemically applied halofuginone after subglottic injury.. After standardized trauma to subglottic area, rats were divided into two groups: a study group that received treatment and a control group that did not. The rats were treated with 0.1 mg/kg/day intraperitoneal halofuginone injection for 30 days. The larynx specimens were examined histopathologically under light microscope for epithelization, inflammation, necrosis, and fibrosis.. The fibrosis indexes of the treated group were significantly less than those of the control group (P < .01).. Systemically applied halofuginone hydrobromide decreases fibrosis/scar tissue formation secondary to experimentally induced acute subglottic trauma.

Selective blockade of endothelin-B receptor improves survival of critically perfused musculocutaneous flaps.
    Langenbeck's archives of surgery, 2007, Volume: 392, Issue:3

    Insufficient perfusion of distal flap areas, which may lead to partial necrosis, still represents a challenge in reconstructive surgery. In the process of microvascular and endothelial dysfunction, endothelins (ETs) and their receptors may play an important role. Therefore, the aim of the study was to investigate in a chronic in vivo model the effect of various ET-receptor antagonists in critically perfused flap tissue.. A random pattern musculocutaneous flap was elevated in the back of 25 C57BL/6 mice and fixed into a dorsal skinfold chamber. Repetitive intravital fluorescence microscopy was performed over a 10-day observation period, assessing arteriolar diameter, arteriolar blood flow (aBF), functional capillary density (FCD), the area of tissue necrosis, and the development of newly formed blood vessels. ET-receptor blockers were administrated intraperitoneally 30 min before induction of ischemia, as well as daily during the subsequent 4-day period, including (1) BQ-123, a specific ET-A-receptor antagonist (ET-A = 1 mg/kg), (2) BQ-788, a selective ET-B-receptor antagonist (ET-B = 1 mg/kg), and (3) PD-142893, a nonselective ET-AB-receptor antagonist (ET-AB = 0.5 mg/kg). Animals receiving saline only served as controls (n = 7).. Despite an increase in aBF during the 10-day observation period (day 1 = 1.92 +/- 0.29 nl/s; day 10 = 4.70 +/- 1.64 nl/s), the flaps of saline-treated controls showed a distinct decrease in FCD (94 +/- 12 cm/cm(2)). This perfusion failure resulted in flap necrosis of 52 +/- 3%. Selective blockade of the ET-B receptor caused a further increase in aBF already at day 1 (2.97 +/- 0.42 nl/s), which persisted during the following 10-day observation period (day 10 = 5.74 +/- 0.69 nl/s). Accordingly, adequate FCD could be maintained (day 10 = 215 +/- 8 cm/cm(2); p < 0.05 vs control), resulting in a significant reduction in flap necrosis (day 10 = 25 +/- 4%; p < 0,05). In contrast, neither selective blockade of the ET-A receptor nor nonselective ET-A- and ET-B-receptor blockade were able to significantly affect aBF when compared to controls (day 1 = ET-A = 1.39 +/- 0.10 nl/s; ET-AB = 1.53 +/- 0.80 nl/s; n.s.). Accordingly, flap necrosis after ET-A- and ET-AB-receptor inhibition did not differ from that of controls (day 10 = ET-A: 46 +/- 10%; ET-AB = 51 +/- 7%).. Our data show that only selective ET-B-receptor inhibition is capable of maintaining nutritive perfusion and, hence, reducing necrosis in critically perfused flap tissue. Accordingly, administration of ET-B-receptor antagonists may be considered in the treatment of critically perfused flaps.

Cytoprotective and immunomodulating properties of piperine on murine splenocytes: an in vitro study.
    European journal of pharmacology, 2007, Dec-08, Volume: 576, Issue:1-3

    Piper longum Linn. and Piper nigrum Linn. are conventionally used as immuno-enhancers in Indian system of traditional medicine. The underlying mechanism remains unknown. The present study was therefore, undertaken to delineate the role of piperine (major alkaloid) in cadmium (Cd) induced immuno-compromised murine splenocytes. The various biological determinants such as oxidative stress markers (reactive oxygen species and GSH), Bcl-2 protein expression, mitochondrial membrane potential, caspase-3 activity, DNA damage, splenic B and T cell population, blastogenesis and cytokines (Interleukin-2 and gamma-Interferon) were measured to ascertain its cell protective potential. Cadmium induces apoptosis at 6 h onwards. The oxidative stress markers markedly alter prior to a decline in mitochondrial membrane potential, caspase-3 activation and DNA degradation The splenic cell population was observed to change only at 18 h and the release of two cytokines was affected at 72 h. Addition of piperine in various concentrations (1, 10 and 50 microg/ml) ameliorated the above events. The highest dose of piperine could completely abrogate the toxic manifestations of cadmium and the splenic cells behaved similar to control cells. The reported free radical scavenging property of piperine and its antioxidant potential could be responsible for the modulation of intracellular oxidative stress signals. These in turn appear to mitigate the apoptotic pathway and other cellular responses altered by cadmium. The findings strongly indicate the anti-oxidative, anti-apoptotic and chemo-protective ability of piperine in blastogenesis, cytokine release and restoration of splenic cell population and is suggestive of its therapeutic usefulness in immuno-compromised situations.

Alvocidib (Flavopiridol) suppresses tumor growth in SCID mice with human esophageal cancer xenografts without inducing apoptosis.
    Surgical oncology, 2006, Volume: 15, Issue:2

    Alvocidib (Flavopiridol, HMR1275) is a potent inhibitor of multiple cyclin-dependent kinases and has been identified recently as an antitumor agent in several cancers. Previous studies have shown that alvocidib could potentially treat esophageal cancer in vitro. This study evaluates alvocidib for its ability to suppress tumor growth in severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) mice bearing TE8 human esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) xenografts. Alvocidib treatment of 10mg/kg body weight reduced tumor volume significantly. Immunohistochemistry analysis of alvocidib-treated tumor sections showed significant reductions in cyclin D1, VEGF, and Rb levels. Alvocidib treatment did not cause a marked increase in apoptotic tumor cells by terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL) analysis, yet hematoxylin and eosin staining revealed tumor necrosis. In vivo investigation of alvocidib treatment confirmed antitumor activity in TE8 esophageal xenografts. These findings suggest that alvocidib could be a useful anti-cancer agent for esophageal cancer.

Comparative study on cardiotoxic effect of Tinuvin 770: a light stabilizer of medical plastics in rat model.
    Toxicological sciences : an official journal of the Society of Toxicology, 2004, Volume: 77, Issue:2

    Tinuvin 770 [bis(2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-4-piperidinyl) sebacate], is a UV light stabilizer plastic additive used worldwide. It is a component of many plastic materials used in medical and food industries. Earlier studies demonstrated its in vitro L-type Ca2+ channel and nicotinic acetylcholine receptor blocking properties. Our previous experiments have proved the toxic effects of Tinuvin 770 on isolated rat cardiomyocytes. The present study investigates the cardiotoxic effects of Tinuvin 770 in vivo. Wistar rats were intraperitoneally injected with increasing doses of Tinuvin 770 (1, 10, 100 microg, and 1 mg) 15 times during a 5-week period. Myocardial samples were analyzed by light, electron, and fluorescent microscopy. The lead-acetate method was used to detect intracellular Ca2+, and glyoxylic acid technique to assess alteration in adrenergic innervation. Focal myocytolysis and hypercontraction necrosis could be observed in rats treated with higher doses of Tinuvin 770. In these groups, intracellular Ca2+ accumulation and increased catecholamine release were detected. Tinuvin 770 not only displays L-type Ca2+ channel blocking properties, but can also lead to catecholamine release, similar to effects of the first generation of L-type Ca2+ channel blockers. Morphological results correspond to catecholamine-induced myocardial damage. Current literature, as well as our study, indicates that more detailed toxicological analysis of Tinuvin 770 should be required, and current regulations in medical and food industries should adopt the new results.

Differential role of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1in apoptotic and necrotic neuronal death induced by mild or intense NMDA exposure in vitro.
    Molecular and cellular neurosciences, 2004, Volume: 25, Issue:1

    Overactivation of the nuclear enzyme poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1) plays a key role in the mechanisms responsible for neuronal death. In the present study, we examined the effects of the PARP-1 inhibitor 3,4-dihydro-5-[4-1(1-piperidinyl)buthoxy]-1(2H)-isoquinolinone (DPQ) in two models of N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA)-induced neurotoxicity. The exposure of mixed cultured cortical cells to 300 microM NMDA for 10 min induced a caspase-dependent type of apoptotic neuronal death. Conversely, exposure to 2 mM NMDA for 10 min led to the appearance of morphological features of necrosis, with no increase in caspase-3 activity and depletion in adenosine triphosphate (ATP) levels. DPQ (10 microM) reduced the NMDA-induced PARP activation, restored ATP to near control levels and significantly attenuated neuronal injury only in the severe NMDA exposure model. Similar results were obtained when pure neuronal cortical cultures were used. PARP-1 activation thus appears to play a preferential role in necrotic than in caspase-dependent apoptotic neuronal death.

Antiangiogenic therapy of cerebral melanoma metastases results in sustained tumor progression via vessel co-option.
    Clinical cancer research : an official journal of the American Association for Cancer Research, 2004, Sep-15, Volume: 10, Issue:18 Pt 1

    In the brain, tumors may grow without inducing angiogenesis, via co-option of the dense pre-existent capillary bed. The purpose of this study was to investigate how this phenomenon influences the outcome of antiangiogenic therapy.. Mice carrying brain metastases of the human, highly angiogenic melanoma cell line Mel57-VEGF-A were either or not treated with different dosages of ZD6474, a vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) receptor 2 tyrosine kinase inhibitor with additional activity against epidermal growth factor receptor. Effect of treatment was evaluated using contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (CE- MRI) and (immuno)morphologic analysis.. Placebo-treated Mel57-VEGF-A brain metastases evoked an angiogenic response and were highlighted in CE-MRI. After treatment with ZD6474 (100 mg/kg), CE-MRI failed to detect tumors in either prevention or therapeutic treatment regimens. However, (immuno)histologic analysis revealed the presence of numerous, small, nonangiogenic lesions. Treatment with 25 mg/kg ZD6474 also resulted in efficient blockade of vessel formation, but it did not fully inhibit vascular leakage, thereby still allowing visualization in CE-MRI scans.. Our data show that, although angiogenesis can be effectively blocked by ZD6474, in vessel-dense organs this may result in sustained tumor progression via co-option, rather than in tumor dormancy. Importantly, blocking VEGF-A may result in undetectability of tumors in CE-MRI scans, leading to erroneous conclusions about therapeutic efficacy during magnetic resonance imaging follow-up. The maintenance of VEGF-A-induced vessel leakage in the absence of neovascularization at lower ZD6474 doses may be exploited to improve delivery of chemotherapeutic agents in combined treatment regimens of antiangiogenic and chemotherapeutic compounds.

Effect of richlocaine alone or in combination with energostim on the severity of endotoxemia and survival of the skin under conditions of reduced blood flow.
    Bulletin of experimental biology and medicine, 2003, Volume: 136, Issue:3

    The local anesthetic richlocaine decreased the area of necrosis in the skin flap under conditions of reduced blood flow by 29.5%. Improved survival of skin flap after richlocaine treatment alleviated endogenous intoxication, reduced secondary inflammatory reaction, improved liver function, and normalized the ratio between vasoconstricting and vasodilating prostaglandins. This effect was most pronounced after combination therapy with richlocaine and direct-action antihypoxant energostim.

Endothelin-2 is a hypoxia-induced autocrine survival factor for breast tumor cells.
    Molecular cancer therapeutics, 2002, Volume: 1, Issue:14

    Endothelins (ETs) are a group of vasoactive peptides (ET-1, ET-2 and ET-3) produced by many cell types that bind to G-protein-linked transmembrane receptors, ET-A receptors (ET-RAs) and ET-B receptors (ET-RBs). These peptides are expressed in several human tumors, including carcinomas of the breast, and have a mitogenic effect in ovarian cancer cell lines. We investigated ET expression in infiltrating ductal carcinomas (IDCs) of the breast and the relationship between ET and hypoxia. ET staining was increased in human grade II IDC samples compared with normal breast tissue. ET-2 and ET-RB mRNA expression were absent in the majority of normal human breast samples (1 of 5 and 0 of 5, respectively) but was present in the majority of IDC tested (13 of 15 and 12 of 15, respectively). In a murine breast cancer model, HTH-K, ET-2, and ET-RB mRNA were detected in tumor but not normal breast tissue, and ET expression colocalized with areas of hypoxia. In vitro, ET-2, ET-RA, and ET-RB mRNA were increased by incubating HTH-K cells in hypoxia (0.1% oxygen) for 24 h. Hypoxia also up-regulated ET-2 mRNA in several human breast tumor cell lines. ET-2 mRNA increased within 3 h in a hypoxia-inducible factor 1-dependent manner. The ET-RB antagonist BQ-788 increased in hypoxia-associated apoptosis of breast tumor cells in vitro. These effects could be reversed by addition of ET-2 peptide. Intratumoral injection of BQ-788 led to an increase in the development and extent of necrosis within the HTH-K tumor and a decrease in the rate of tumor growth. The ET-RA antagonist, BQ-123, also led to a decrease in tumor growth but without a concomitant increase in necrosis. We propose that modulation of ET-2 production via the hypoxia-inducible factor 1 transcription factor and autocrine signaling via ET-RB is a novel mechanism by which tumor cells can withstand hypoxic stress. Treatment of breast carcinomas with ET receptor antagonists may have a therapeutic benefit.

Growth inhibition of prostate cancer xenografts by halofuginone.
    The Prostate, 2002, May-01, Volume: 51, Issue:2

    Halofuginone, an inhibitor of collagen type I synthesis, is an anti-angiogenic agent. Here we evaluated the efficacy of halofuginone to inhibit prostate cancer (PC) xenografts representing various phenotypes of the disease.. An androgen-dependent (CWR22), an androgen-independent (PC3), and a neuroendocrine (WISH-PC2) PC xenograft were used. Halofuginone was given orally or injected intraperitoneally. Tumor size, collagen alpha1(I) gene expression (in situ hybridization), collagen content (sirius red staining), angiogenesis (immunohistochemistry with factor VIII antibodies), and apoptosis/necrosis (DNA fragmentation) were evaluated.. Halofuginone inhibited the growth of all subcutaneously implanted xenografts and of WISH-PC2 when transplanted orthotopically. The effect was dose-dependent (WISH-PC2) and accompanied by decrease in plasma PSA levels (CWR22). In all xenografts, halofuginone inhibited collagen alpha1(I) gene expression, reduced collagen content, and endothelial cell number resulting in an increase in apoptosis/necrosis.. Oral administration of halofuginone slowed the progression of PC xenografts representing a broad range of phenotypes. Halofuginone may become a new modality for PC prevention.

Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitors attenuate necrotic but not apoptotic neuronal death in experimental models of cerebral ischemia.
    Cell death and differentiation, 2001, Volume: 8, Issue:9

    An excessive activation of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) has been proposed to play a key role in post-ischemic neuronal death. We examined the neuroprotective effects of the PARP inhibitors benzamide, 6(5H)-phenanthridinone, and 3,4-dihydro-5-[4-1(1-piperidinyl)buthoxy]-1(2H)-isoquinolinone in three rodent models of cerebral ischemia. Increasing concentrations of the three PARP inhibitors attenuated neuronal injury induced by 60 min oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD) in mixed cortical cell cultures, but were unable to reduce CA1 pyramidal cell loss in organotypic hippocampal slices exposed to 30 min OGD or in gerbils following 5 min bilateral carotid occlusion. We then examined the necrotic and apoptotic features of OGD-induced neurodegeneration in cortical cells and hippocampal slices using biochemical and morphological approaches. Cortical cells exposed to OGD released lactate dehydrogenase into the medium and displayed ultrastructural features of necrotic cell death, whereas no caspase-3 activation nor morphological characteristics of apoptosis were observed at any time point after OGD. In contrast, a marked increase in caspase-3 activity was observed in organotypic hippocampal slices after OGD, together with fluorescence and electron microscope evidence of apoptotic neuronal death in the CA1 subregion. Moreover, the caspase inhibitor Z-VAD-FMK reduced OGD-induced CA1 pyramidal cell loss. These findings suggest that PARP overactivation may be an important mechanism leading to post-ischemic neurodegeneration of the necrotic but not of the apoptotic type.

Nature of the cardiomyocyte injury induced by lipid hydroperoxides.
    Cardiovascular research, 1995, Volume: 30, Issue:5

    As a result of oxidative stress to membrane lipid matrix, the peroxidation of polyunsaturated fatty acids induced the transient formation of lipid hydroperoxides (ROOH). The aim of this study was to evaluate the damaging effects of ROOH on the cardiac cell and the link between the alterations observed and intracellular calcium overload.. Necrosis of cultured rat cardiac cells was determined by measuring the release of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH). In guinea-pig papillary muscles, action potential (AP) and isometric tension were recorded with standard microelectrodes and a transducer, respectively. The reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavenging properties of tested compounds were determined using a cell-free model of lipid photoperoxidation.. 15(S)-HpETE (15(S)-hydroperoxyeicosatetraenoic acid), an arachidonic acid hydroperoxide, induced a concentration-dependent loss of cardiomyocytes membrane integrity. The release of LDH induced by 15(s)-HpETE (30 microM) was prevented by a ROS scavenger, BW755C (10 microM), but not by a sarcolemmal calcium channel blocker, Amlodipine (10 microM), or a calcium overload protective agent, R56865 (10 microM). Cardiomyocytes necrosis induced by calcium paradox was prevented by Amlodipine (10 microM) and R56865 (10 microM), but not by BW755C (10 microM). Superfusion of papillary muscles with 15(S)-HpETE (20 microM) induced a membrane depolarization and a marked reduction in the AP amplitude and duration. Concomitantly, a transient positive inotropic effect and a progressive rise in diastolic tension were observed. These alterations were maximal after 15 min and associated with delayed after-depolarizations (DADs) and after-contractions. Every alteration was inhibited by BW755C (10 microM) and R56865 (30 microM), but not by Amlodipine (1 microM). Ryanodine (1 microM), a blocker of sarcoplasmic reticulum calcium channel, only prevented the appearance of DADs and after-contractions. Only BW755C exhibited ROS scavenging properties.. ROOH induced enzyme leakage and electromechanical alterations in cardiac cells. These effects of ROOH implicated oxidative mechanisms and resulted in an intracellular calcium overload.

Effects of lorcainide and amiodarone on stress-induced myocardial damage in the rat.
    Acta cardiologica, 1984, Volume: 39, Issue:5

    This paper is concerned with the effects of Lorcainide (LCN) and Amiodarone (AMD) on stress-induced myocardial lesions in rats. Forty rats were used. The first group (G-1) was used as a control (n = 10) and animals were injected with saline. Animals in group 2 (G-2) (n = 15) received AMD 10 mg per kilogram, and animals in group 3 (G-3) (n = 15) received LCN 3 mg per kilogram. During five minutes before the injections, the rats were submitted to a stress, consisting of intermittent cold water jets (6 degrees C). Animals were sacrificed one hour after injection, and the hearts were histologically studied. The relative areas of necrotic myocardium were assessed by Bertazzoli's modified method. In G-1, myocytolysis in the subendocardium of left ventricle (score: 2.2 +/- 0.79), contraction bands (1.2 +/- 1.03) and subendocardial myocardial damage (0.8) were common findings. In groups G-2 and G-3, the lesions described were found, but to a lesser degree; subendocardial myocytolysis: 1.6 +/- 0.63 and 1.07 +/- 0.4; contraction bands: 0.67 +/- 0.82 and 0.07 +/- 0.26; and subendocardial damage: 0.77 and 0.40. LCN and AMD markedly decreased stress-induced myocytolysis (p less than 0.01) (graph 1), but LCN was more effective than AMD (p less than 0.05). Comparison of severity and extension of contraction bands showed that only LCN had a significant effect (p less than 0.01) (graph 2); the same was observed as regards the decrease of damaged zones (p less than 0.05). From our data, LCN and AMD appears to have the capacity of reversing some of the stress-induced myocardial damage in rats.

Localization of toxic encephalopathies near lesions of experimental allergic encephalomyelitis.
    The American journal of pathology, 1982, Volume: 107, Issue:2

    Bipiperidyl mustard and a neurotoxic triamine are known to cause edematous and/or necrotizing lesions in particular areas of hypothalamus and dorsal medulla but not in spinal cord. Experimental allergic encephalomyelitis (EAR) causes widespread inflammatory lesions that are especially numerous in spinal cord. When the chemical toxicants were administered to rats during the acute phase of EAE, mortality was increased. This was due to a specific interaction between EAE and chemical toxicants leading to the development of necrotizing vasculitis and parenchymal necrosis near EAE lesions in spinal cord or brain. The interaction decreased as the EAE lesions healed. Another neurotoxic chemical, dipiperidinoethane, did not produce this phenomenon. These effects of EAE are probably related to damage to the vessel walls and the blood-brain barrier. The present work may increase the versatility of EAE as a model for multiple sclerosis if the EAE lesions can be enlarged progressively by repeated exposures to the toxicant.

Lesions of amygdala, pyriform cortex and other brain structures due to dipiperidinoethane intoxication.
    Journal of neuropathology and experimental neurology, 1980, Volume: 39, Issue:1

    Single doses of dipiperidinoethane (DPE) produced symmetrical necrosis in pyriform cortex, amygdala and other areas of gray matter in rats, mice and gerbils. The necrosis was detectable in 10 hours and fully developed in 24 hours. Its distribution and severity were not influenced by carotid artery ligation. DPE was not a cumulative poison. There was a high degree of chemical specificity: neurotoxic activity was present in DPE derivatives modified by methylation of the two piperidine rings, but neurotoxicity was absent in derivatives with different ring systems or different connecting chains.

Perhexiline maleate-induced cirrhosis.
    Gastroenterology, 1979, Volume: 76, Issue:1

    The authors report the cases of 2 patients who died from cirrhosis after receiving perhexiline maleate, a drug widely used in Europe for the treatment of angina pectoris. Perhexiline maleate had been ingested for 24 and 28 mo, respectively. Manifestations of cirrhosis included jaundice, hepatic encephalopathy, ascites, and portal hypertension. Associated manifestations of intolerance to perhexiline maleate included peripheral neuropathy in 1 patient and marked weight loss in both. Histologic lesions resembled those observed in patients with alcoholic liver disease. Ultrastructural lesions included numerous enlarged lysosomes containing myeloid figures. Histochemical stains demonstrated increased phospholipid content of the hepatocytes. These findings are consistent with the view that prolonged administration of perhexiline maleate may induce both histologic lesions resembling those of alcoholic liver disease and ultrastructural and histochemical lesions resembling those of phospholipidosis.

Effects of nine N-nitroso compounds on the specific radioactivity of liver proteins after injection of [14C]leucine into rats.
    Cancer research, 1977, Volume: 37, Issue:5

    We compared the effect of nine N-nitroso compounds, given by gavage to adult rats, on specific radioactivity of the trichloroacetic acid-precipitable liver proteins, 1 hr after the injection of [14C]leucine. The specific radioactivity was decreased by dimethylnitrosamine, diethylnitrosamine, methyl-n-butylnitrosamine, and nitrosomorpholine 5 to 10 hr after their administration; was increased by nitrosopiperidine, dinitrosopiperazine, and methylnitrosourea 5 to 24 hr after gavage; and was unaffected by nitrososarcosine and nitrosodihydrouracil. With dimethylnitrosamine, specific radioactivity was decreased by 10 but not 5 mg/kg. In control rats and rats given injections of either of two nitrosamines, protein specific radioactivity at 60 min after the [14C]leucine injection was 76 to 87% of that at 30 min, indicating some degradation of the proteins at 60 min. The liver:blood ratio of [14C]cycloleucine concentration was unaffected by four nitrosamines, indicating no effect on leucine transport. The effect of the nine compounds was examined on total pool size of free leucine in the liver, at times close to those for the maximum specific radioactivity effect. For these data, we calculated "corrected specific radioactivity," adjusted for changes in pool size. This adjustment is only a first approximation since, for example, the free leucine pool is not uniform with respect to protein synthesis. The four N-nitroso compounds that decreased specific radioactivity also decreased corrected specific radioactivity, even though they enlarged the leucine pool. Of the remaining compounds, two enlarged the leucine pool and three increased corrected specific radioactivity. For all nine compounds, the decrease in specific and correlated with the ability to cause acute liver necrosis. When nitrosodihydrouracil was excluded, the decrease in specific and corrected specific radioactivity was significantly correlated with the reported liver carcinogenicity.

An in vitro and in vivo investigation of the phototoxic effect and its amelioration with radioprotective compounds.
    The Journal of investigative dermatology, 1975, Volume: 64, Issue:5

    Electron spin resonance spectroscopy has been used to demonstrate that the phototoxic antimalarial drug, 6,8-dichloro-2-phenyl-a-2-piperidnylquinolinemethanol (WR 7930), when irradiated with long-wave ultraviolet (UV) light (lambda greater than 320 nm) while held in a glassy matrix at 73 degrees K, enters a triplet state and releases hydrogen atoms in its environment. The steady-state concentration of triplet WR 7930 molecules and of hydrogen atoms is reduced 2 to 3 times when mercaptoethylamine (MEA) is also present in the UV-irradiated glass. Organosulfur radicals form on MEA while hydrogen atoms and triplet-state molecules are reduced in number. Hydrogen atoms and triplet WR 7930 molecules are considered as mediators of the phototoxicity of the antimalarial drug. Thus, hydrogen atom scavanging and chemical quenching of the triplet state are possible mechanisms by which protection against phototoxic effects could be gained. Protection is demonstrated in mice receiving 20 mg per kg WR 7930 intraperitoneally and exposed to long-wave UV for 20 hr when the radioprotective aminothiol-forming compound, 2-(3-aminopropylamino) ethyl dihydrogen phosphorothioate (WR 2721), is administered at 400 mg per kg immediately before irradiation. When no protective drug is administered concurrently, WR 7930 administration results in intense erythema, edema, and eventual necrosis of ear tissues.
