چکیده

A new member of the polyene family, N-dimethylaminoacetyl-partricin A 2-dimethylaminoethylamide diaspartate (SPA), was investigated and was found to be more effective than amphotericin B (i) in vivo by enhancing mouse resistance to cryptococcal meningoencephalitis and (ii) in vitro by potentiating the anticryptococcal activity of murine microglial cells.

Vitamin E Derivative Alpha-Tocotrienol Failed to Show Neuroprotective Effects after Embolic Stroke in Rats

Objective(s) Previous studies have demonstrated that pretreatment with alpha-tocotrienol (a-TCT) can reduce ischemic damage in mice following middle cerebral artery (MCA) occlusion. It is also reported to decrease stroke- dependent brain tissue damage in 12-Lox-deficient mice and spontaneously hypertensive rats. In the present study, the neuroprotective effects of a-TCT and rosiglitazone (RGZ)...
