Enhanced antiscrapie effect using combination drug treatment.
Combination treatment with pentosan polysulfate and Fe(III)meso-tetra(4-sulfonatophenyl)porphine in mice beginning 14 or 28 days after scrapie inoculation significantly increased survival times. This increase may be synergistic, implying that the compounds act cooperatively in vivo. Combination therapy may therefore be more effective for treatment of transmissible spongiform encephalopathies an...
متن کاملTreatment of Severe Alopecia Areata Using Methotrexate as an Adjunctive Drug in Combination with Intravenous and Oral Corticosteroid
Background: Alopecia areata is one of the most common human autoimmune disorders and its severe types are refractory to all conventional therapies. Corticosteroids have been used in severe alopecia areata since 1950s but there is concern over complications caused by high doses of corticosteroids. Methotrexate has been used as an adjunctive therapy in some autoimmune disorders and has been propo...
متن کاملPorphyrin and phthalocyanine antiscrapie compounds.
The transmissible spongiform encephalopathies (TSEs) are fatal, neurodegenerative diseases for which no effective treatments are available. The likelihood that a bovine form of TSE has crossed species barriers and infected humans underscores the urgent need to identify anti-TSE drugs. Certain cyclic tetrapyrroles (porphyrins and phthalocyanines) have recently been shown to inhibit the in vitro ...
متن کاملEnhanced Removal of Pb+2 from Wastewater Using Combination of Ultrasound and nZVI Methods
This research reported a new method of removal of Pb+2from water by using a nano zero valent iron (nZVI) assisted ultrasonic wave. At first, nZVI was synthesized by an ultrasound assisted method. Particles morphology and surface composition were characterized by FESEM, XRD, and EDX. The XRD patterns showed that the crystallinity of the nZVI prepared using ultrasonic conditions was hi...
متن کاملThe Effect of Immune Response and Combination Drug Treatment on the Progression of Multi-Strain HIV
Rapidly mutating HIV strains pose difficulties for effective therapy. By using a mathematical model, we explore the in-host progression of mutating HIV strains considering both the immune response of the host and a combination of antiviral drugs. The first drug inhibits the entry of the HIV virus into CD4 cells, while the second is a protease inhibitor. We conduct uncertainty and sensitivity an...
