Comparative study of DNA repair induced by cyproterone acetate, chlormadinone acetate and megestrol acetate in primary cultures of human and rat hepatocytes.
Cyproterone acetate (CPA), a synthetic progestin recently found to induce genotoxic effects in hepatocytes from female rats and from humans of both genders, and two structural analogues, chlormadinone acetate (CMA) and megestrol acetate (MGA), have been compared for their capacity to induce DNA repair synthesis as measured by quantitative autoradiography. Exposure of primary human hepatocytes f...
متن کاملSex-specific induction of apoptosis by cyproterone acetate in primary rat hepatocytes.
The synthetic steroid cyproterone acetate (CPA) has been reported to be hepatogenotoxic in female rats depending on sex-specific expression of a hydroxysteroid sulfotransferase (HST) which is involved in the bioactivation of CPA to reactive metabolites. In the present study the ability of CPA to initiate apoptosis in rat hepatocytes in vitro was investigated with respect to sex-specific effects...
متن کاملstudy the effects of low level laser diode on no production and healing of diabetic and cortisone acetate and normal wounded sd rats
nitric oxide (no) is a small molecule synthesized by most of mammalian cells with diverse biological activities including vasodilatation, host defense and wound healing. impaired wound healing is a common occurrence among diabetics and patients receiving glucocorticoid therapy. on the other hand the application of laser in biomedical area have been increased. thus, the current studies were desi...
15 صفحه اولMegestrol acetate in cachexia and anorexia
The aim is to review major clinical trials that have used megestrol acetate (MA) in the treatment of cachexia across several disease states. A review of general usage and potential side-effects are discussed. A theory that the newly approved nanocrystal formation of MA can better deliver this potent medication for treatment will also be reviewed.
متن کاملSevere hepatitis caused by cyproterone acetate.
A case of severe acute hepatitis caused by cyproterone acetate in a 71 year old man with prostatic carcinoma is reported with a review of the literature on hepatic reactions to this drug. The association between the use of cyproterone acetate and liver abnormalities is poorly documented. This is the fourth published report of adverse hepatic reaction to cyproterone acetate and it substantiates ...
