Inhibition of allergic inflammation by supplementation with 5-hydroxytryptophan.
Clinical reports indicate that patients with allergy/asthma commonly have associated symptoms of anxiety/depression. Anxiety/depression can be reduced by 5-hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP) supplementation. However, it is not known whether 5-HTP reduces allergic inflammation. Therefore, we determined whether 5-HTP supplementation reduces allergic inflammation. We also determined whether 5-HTP decreases...

A case of severe diffuse systemic sclerosis with cardiomegaly and cardiac failure is described. Treatment with D-penicillamine caused a pronounced decrease in heart size, together with clinical improvement. The use of penicillamine in scleroderma heart has not previously been reported.
متن کاملCholestatic jaundice caused by D-penicillamine.
D-penicillamine is not generally considered to cause hepatic damage. Cholestatic jaundice developed in a patient with rheumatoid arthritis 4 weeks after penicillamine was added to his regimen, and he died in acute renal failure. The probability that penicillamine caused the cholestasis is discussed.
متن کاملInhibition of neutrophil oxidant secretion by D-penicillamine: scavenging of H2O2 and HOCl.
D-Penicillamine inhibited oxidant secretion from human neutrophils after activation by the chemotactic peptide N-formyl-methionyl-leucyl-phenylalanine (fMet-Leu-Phe), as assessed by luminol dependent chemiluminescence. In contrast, this drug had little effect on either intracellular oxidant production or lucigenin dependent chemiluminescence activated by the same agonist. The drug was shown to ...
متن کاملInhibition of human endothelial cell proliferation in vitro and neovascularization in vivo by D-penicillamine.
To investigate the effects of D-penicillamine (D-Pen) on angiogenesis, we have studied the effects of this drug on in vitro proliferation of human endothelial cells (EC) and in vivo corneal neovascularization. D-Pen, in the presence of copper sulfate, suppressed tritiated thymidine ([3H]TdR) incorporation into EC in a dose-dependent manner. Significant inhibition was observed with D-Pen concent...
