  4. 12. Uridine, 4-thiouridine and isomaltitol in an asthma-like model : Anti-inflammatory and modulating effects

    Author : Chamilly Evaldsson; Srinivas Uppugunduri; Margareta Linden; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Uridine; asthma; 4-thiouridine; isomaltitol; isomalt; inflammation; eosinophilia; Sephadex; animal model; rat; Pharmaceutical pharmacology; Farmaceutisk farmakologi; MEDICINE; MEDICIN; Lung diseases; Lungsjukdomar;

    Abstract : In chronic inflammatory diseases like asthma or rheumatoid arthritis, erroneous and exaggerated accumulation of leukocytes in a tissue inadvertently causes the body harm. Several efficient anti-inflammatory drugs exist, for example corticosteroids and cyclo-oxygenase inhibitors. READ MORE
