Inhibition of prostaglandin endoperoxide synthetase by thiol analogues of prostaglandin.
A variety of thiol compounds inhibited the enzymatic bis-oxygenation of 8,11,14-eicosatrienoic acid to prostaglandin G1, as examined with a purified preparation of prostaglandin endoperoxide synthetase (prostaglandin synthase; 8,11,14-eicosatrienoate, hydrogen-donor:oxygen oxidoreductase; EC 1.14.99.1) from bovine vesicular gland. The hydroperoxide cleavage of prostaglandin G1 producing prostag...
متن کاملAdverse upper gastrointestinal effects of rofecoxib compared with NSAIDs.
CONTEXT Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID)-induced gastrointestinal (GI) toxic effects, such as upper GI tract perforations, symptomatic gastroduodenal ulcers, and upper GI tract bleeding (PUBs), are thought to be attributable to cyclooxygenase 1 (COX-1) inhibition. Rofecoxib specifically inhibits COX-2 and has demonstrated a low potential for causing upper GI injury. OBJECTIVE To co...
متن کاملGastrointestinal adverse effects of antiepileptic drugs in intractable epileptic patients
Gastrointestinal (GI) discomforts are among the most common side effects of antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) that might lead to discontinuation or irregular consumption of the drugs. This study was conducted to evaluate the frequency of GI side effects of different AEDs in intractable epileptic patients treated with single or multiple drugs. GI discomfort of 100 epileptic patients (aged 35-76 years) ...
متن کاملAdverse gastrointestinal effects of arginine and related amino acids.
Oral supplements of arginine and citrulline increase local nitric oxide (NO) production in the small intestine and this may be harmful under certain circumstances. Gastrointestinal toxicity was therefore reviewed with respect to the intestinal physiology of arginine, citrulline, ornithine, and cystine (which shares the same transporter) and the many clinical trials of supplements of the dibasic...
متن کاملClozapine and Gastrointestinal Adverse Effects - A Pain in the Gut?
One case involved a 49 year old man who had been receiving clozapine for two years, who died of severe pulmonary oedema secondary to inhalation of feculent vomitus. Another case in a 43 year old man who had been treated with clozapine for six years, suffered a large-bowel obstruction secondary to faecal impaction.
