Mechanisms of nitric oxide-mediated neurotoxicity in primary brain cultures.
In addition to mediating several physiological functions, nitric oxide (NO) has been implicated in the cytotoxicities observed following activation of macrophages or excess stimulation of neurons by glutamate. We extend our previous observations of glutamate-stimulated, NO-mediated neurotoxicity in primary cultures of rat fetal cortical, striatal, and hippocampal neurons. Neurotoxicity elicited...
متن کاملAttenuation of platelet-activating factor induced bronchoconstriction by nedocromil sodium.
We assessed the effect of nedocromil sodium on bronchoconstriction and airway responsiveness induced by platelet-activating factor (PAF) in eight normal subjects, in a double-blind, placebo-controlled cross-over study. Subjects inhaled PAF by a dosimeter method in 5 doses of 18 micrograms each, separated by an interval of 15 min, (total dose of 90 micrograms). Airway calibre was measured by par...
متن کاملSodium and angiotensin in hypertension induced by long-term nitric oxide blockade.
The influence of dietary sodium restriction and angiotensin II blockade on hypertension induced by a 25-day period of administration of the inhibitor of nitric oxide synthesis NG-nitro-L-arginine-methyl ester (10 mg/kg twice daily by gavage) was assessed in Wistar rats fed a normal or low sodium diet. In addition, the angiotensin II receptor blocker losartan (30 mg/kg once daily by gavage) was ...
متن کاملAttenuation of exercise induced asthma by nedocromil sodium and sodium cromoglycate.
A randomized double blind cross over trial to compare nedocromil sodium and sodium cromoglycate with placebo in the prevention of exercise induced asthma was conducted. Twenty asthmatics received nedocromil sodium, sodium cromoglycate or placebo via metered dose inhalers on successive days 30 minutes before exercise in a randomized order. Nedocromil sodium and sodium cromoglycate gave sufficien...
متن کاملNeutralization of human serum lysozyme by sodium polyanethol sulfonate but not by sodium amylosulfate.
Sodium polyanethol sulfonate (SPS) at 500 microgram/ml, but not sodium amylosulfate (SAS) at 500 microgram/ml, precipitated egg white lysozyme (1 mg and 50 microgram of lysozyme per ml) as determined with the assay strain Micrococcus lysodeikticus ATCC 4698. Fresh and heat-inactivated (56 degrees C, 30 min) human serum (80%, vol/vol) killed M. lysodeikticus (10(4) bacteria per ml at zero time) ...
