The spatio-temporal pattern of the axonopathy associated with the neurotoxicity of 3,4-dimethyl-2,5-hexanedione in the rat.

Probing mechanisms of axonopathy. Part II: Protein targets of 2,5-hexanedione, the neurotoxic metabolite of the aliphatic solvent n-hexane.

Neuroprotein changes in the spinal cord of rodents with aliphatic gamma-diketone axonopathy induced by 2,5-hexanedione (2,5-HD) are compared with those reported previously in aromatic gamma-diketone-like axonopathy induced by 1,2-diacetylbenzene (1,2-DAB). Sprague-Dawley rats were treated intraperitoneally with 500 mg/kg/day 2,5-HD, equimolar doses of 2,3-hexanedione (negative control), or an e...

Assessment of Neonate's Congenital Hypothyroidism Pattern Using Poisson Spatio-temporal Model in Disease Mapping under the Bayesian Paradigm during 2011-18 in Guilan, Iran

Background: Congenital Hypothyroidism (CH) is one of the reasons for mental retardation and defective growth in neonates. It can be treated if it is diagnosed early. The congenital hypothyroidism can be diagnosed using newborn screening in the first days after birth. Disease mapping helps to identify high-risk areas of the disease. This study aimed to evaluate the pattern of CH using the Poisso...

Pathological studies on distal axonopathy caused by 2,5-hexanedione : comparative study using normal and neurofilament -deficient quail

SYNTHESIS OF SOME SUBSTITUTED NAPHTHALENES VIA BENZYNE AND THEIR 13C-NMR AND 'H-NMR STUDIES

Aprotic diazotization of anthranilic acid with isoamylnitrite or amylnitrite gave benzenediazonium-2- carboxylate. Subsequent thermal decomposition of this diazonium salt (in situ) in 1,2-dichloroethane as a solvent at 85OC and in the presence of 2,5-diethyl-3,4-diphenylcyclopentadienonaes a trapping agent gave 1,4-diethyl-2, 3-diphenylnaphthalene in high yield, after loss of carbon monoxid...

The effect of 2,5-hexanedione on myelin protein zero expression, and its mitigation using Ginkgo biloba extract.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the role of myelin protein zero (P(0)) in 2,5-hexanedione (2,5-HD)-induced peripheral nerve injury, and the protective effect of Ginkgo biloba extract (Egb761) on 2,5-HD-induced toxic peripheral neuropathy. METHODS After 4 weeks of treatment with 2,5-HD at different doses (50, 100, 200, 400 mg/kg) in rats, changes in the levels of P(0) in rat sciatic nerves was invest...
