Synthetic liposomes are protective from bleomycin-induced lung toxicity.
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis is a devastating disease characterized by a progressive, irreversible, and ultimately lethal form of lung fibrosis. Except for lung transplantation, no effective treatment options currently exist. The bleomycin animal model is one of the best studied models of lung injury and fibrosis. A previous study using mouse tumor models observed that liposome-encapsulated bl...
متن کاملThe protective effect of Sambucus ebulus against lung toxicity induced by gamma irradiation in mice
The aim of present study was to investigate the potential antioxidant and lung protective activities of Sambucus ebulus (SE) against toxicity induced by gamma irradiation. Hydroalcoholic extract of SE (20, 50 and 100 mg/kg) was studied for its lung protective activity. Phenol and flavonoid contents of SE were determined. Male C57 mice were divided into ten groups with five mice per group. Only ...
متن کاملHow Protective Are Synthetic Data?
This short paper provides a synthesis of the statistical disclosure limitation and computer science data privacy approaches to measuring the confidentiality protections provided by fully synthetic data. Since all elements of the data records in the release file derived from fully synthetic data are sampled from an appropriate probability distribution, they do not represent “real data,” but ther...
متن کاملProtective Effect of Grape Seed Extract against the Fibrogenic Effect of Bleomycin in Rat Lung
Many studies have been performed for treatment or prevention of pulmonary fibrosis. However, no effective treatment has been found yet. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of grape seed extract on bleomycin-induced lung fibrosis in rat. Hydroalcoholic extract of grape seed (Vitis vinifera) was prepared using maceration method. NMRI rats weighing 250-300 g were given...
متن کاملProtective effect of orally administered carnosine on bleomycin-induced lung injury.
Carnosine is an endogenously synthesized dipeptide composed of beta-alanine and L-histidine. It acts as a free radical scavenger and possesses antioxidant properties. Carnosine reduces proinflammatory and profibrotic cytokines such as transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta), IL-1, and TNF-alpha in different experimental settings. In the present study, we investigated the efficacy of carnosin...
