Effects of progesterone and selective oestrogen receptor modulators on chronic allograft nephropathy in rats.
BACKGROUND We recently demonstrated that oestrogens ameliorate the progression of chronic allograft nephropathy (CAN). In our present study, we investigated the role of progesterone and selective oestrogen receptor modulators (SERMs) in this process. METHODS Female Fisher (F344) kidneys were orthotopically transplanted into intact or ovariectomized female Lewis recipients. Ovariectomized reci...
متن کاملEffect of ligustrazine on chronic allograft nephropathy in rats.
OBJECTIVES Our previous study demonstrated that Ligustrazine reduced renal dysfunction associated with ischemia-reperfusion injury in mice. In this study, we investigated whether Ligustrazine herbal injection had any preventive and therapeutic effectiveness against chronic allograft nephropathy in rats. METHODS Male Lewis rats that received left renal grafts from male Fisher 344 rats were ran...
متن کاملA pharmacological review of selective oestrogen receptor modulators.
Selective oestrogen receptor modulators (SERMs) are structurally diverse non-steroidal compounds that bind to oestrogen receptors and produce oestrogen agonist effects in some tissues and oestrogen antagonist effects in others. SERMs are being evaluated for a number of oestrogen-related diseases, including post-menopausal osteoporosis, hormone-dependent cancers, and cardiovascular disease. Seve...
متن کاملSelective oestrogen receptor modulators/new antioestrogens: a clinical perspective.
Following tamoxifen, the first selective oestrogen receptor modulator (SERM), a number of other antioestrogens have been developed. The first-generation SERMs exhibit cross-resistance with tamoxifen and have agonist effects on the uterus. Toremifene has equal efficacy to tamoxifen and may be useful as a tamoxifen alternative. Efficacy results for droloxifene and idoxifene were disappointing and...
