  1. 1. Effect of Drugs on Rabbit Retina

    Author : Anna Cardiakidis Myers; Lund Oftalmologi; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Drug toxicity; electroretinography; histopathology; intravitreal injection; rifabutin; anti-VEGF; triamcinolone; benzyl alcohol; anti-TNF-alpha; adalimumab;

    Abstract : The adverse effects of drugs in the eye are not easily detected, and the underlying pathogenesis not fully understood. The effects of four different kinds of drugs have been investigated in the rabbit eye, using electroretinography, ocular examination and histochemical methods. READ MORE

  2. 2. Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs in Cyclooxygenases 1 and 2 : Binding modes and mechanisms from computational methods and free energy calculations

    Author : Yasmin Shamsudin Khan; Johan Åqvist; Hugo Gutiérrez de Terán; Xavier Barril; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; molecular dynamics simulations; binding free energy; molecular docking; cyclooxygenase; non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs; free energy perturbation; potentials of mean force;

    Abstract : Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are one of the most commonly used classes of drugs. They target the cyclooxygenases (COX) 1 and 2 to reduce the physiological responses of pain, fever, and inflammation. Due to their role in inducing angiogenesis, COX proteins have also been identified as targets in cancer therapies. READ MORE

  3. 3. Effects of anti-inflammatory drugs on human skeletal muscle adaptations to resistance training

    Author : Mats Lilja; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Previous studies in young adults suggest that non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) may impair early skeletal muscle responses to exercise. Whether chronic use of NSAIDs affects skeletal muscle adaptations to resistance training in young adults remains uncertain. READ MORE

  4. 4. Studies on anti-inflammatory and vasoactive effects of mPGES-1 inhibition

    Author : Julia Steinmetz-Späh; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Inflammation is the basis for various serious illnesses such as rheumatic diseases, cardiovascular diseases, and cancer. Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) is a pro-inflammatory lipid mediator produced by cyclooxygenases (COX1/2) and the microsomal prostaglandin E synthase 1 (mPGES-1). READ MORE

  5. 5. Faecal Calprotectin Diagnostics : Focus on Primary Care and Suspected Sources of Error

    Author : Zlatica Rendek; Henrik Hjortswang; Magnus Falk; Ewa Grodzinsky; Stergios Kechagias; Mikael Lilja; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Calprotectin; Inflammatory bowel disease; Gastrointestinal disease; Primary health care; Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agents; Proton pump inhibitors; Respiratory tract infection;

    Abstract : Patients with gastrointestinal symptoms often present a diagnostic challenge for general practitioners. Faecal calprotectin (FC) is commonly used as a marker of intestinal inflammation and is useful for differentiating between inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), as well as for the follow-up of patients with IBD and monitoring treatment response.
