Use of Nonsteroidal Antiinflammatory Drugs
Clinical trial data have prompted questions about the degree to which patients and their physicians should consider an increased risk of cardiovascular or cerebrovascular events when selecting medications for pain relief. Since the 2005 publication of a Science Advisory on the use of nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) by the American Heart Association,1 several important events have o...
متن کاملPrevention of in vitro neutrophil-endothelial attachment through shedding of L-selectin by nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs.
The activation of the endothelial cells by extravascular stimuli is the key event in the extravasation of circulating leukocytes to target tissues. L-selectin, a member of the selectin family, is constitutively expressed by white cells, and is the molecule involved in the initial binding of leukocytes to activated endothelium. After activation, leukocytes rapidly release L-selectin from the cel...
متن کاملColonic side effects of nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs.
Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are a widely prescribed group of drugs, known to be responsible for many cases of gastroduodenal ulcers by inhibiting cyclo-oxygenase (1). The incidence of side effects while taking NSAID therapy is high, and has been reported to approach 70% in patients receiving long-term therapy. The most frequent complications are those involving the gastroduod...
متن کاملInhibition of neutrophil elastase by recombinant human proteinase inhibitor 9.
Proteinase inhibitor PI9 (PI9) is an intracellular 42-kDa member of the ovalbumin family of serpins that is found primarily in placenta, lung and lymphocytes. PI9 has been shown to be a fast-acting inhibitor of granzyme B in vitro, presumably through the utilization of Glu(340) as the P(1) inhibitory residue in its reactive site loop. In this report, we describe the inhibition of human neutroph...
متن کاملInhibition of Human Neutrophil Elastase by Pentacyclic Triterpenes
SCOPE Inhibiting human neutrophil elastase (HNE) is a promising strategy for treating inflammatory lung diseases, such as H1N1 and SARS virus infections. The use of sivelestat, the only clinically registered synthesized HNE inhibitor, is largely limited by its risk of organ toxicity because it irreversibly inhibits HNE. Therefore, potent reversible HNE inhibitors are promising alternatives to s...
