چکیده

Different doses (ranging from 31 to 1000 \g=m\g)of chlormadinone acetate were injected into female rats on Days 2 to 6 ofpregnancy. The percentage of ova lost before implantation increased with higher doses of the drug, whereas the implantation ratio (number of rats with implantations/total number of rats) was not affected by treatment. The dose of 1 mg altered the onset ofparturition in 50% of the rats.

Comparative study of DNA repair induced by cyproterone acetate, chlormadinone acetate and megestrol acetate in primary cultures of human and rat hepatocytes.

Cyproterone acetate (CPA), a synthetic progestin recently found to induce genotoxic effects in hepatocytes from female rats and from humans of both genders, and two structural analogues, chlormadinone acetate (CMA) and megestrol acetate (MGA), have been compared for their capacity to induce DNA repair synthesis as measured by quantitative autoradiography. Exposure of primary human hepatocytes f...

Protective effects of piperine on lead acetate induced-nephrotoxicity in rats

Objective(s): In this study, we investigated the protective effects of piperine on lead acetate-induced renal damage in rat kidney tissue. Materials and Methods: Forty male rats were divided into 5 groups: negative control (rats were given aquadest daily), positive control (rats were given lead acetate 30 mg/kg BW orally once a day for 60 days), and the treatment group (rats were given piperine...

Contraception with chlormadinone acetate in woman with previous contraceptive jaundice.

The oral contraceptive chlormadinone acetate has been given for eight months to a woman who had developed jaundice during four pregnancies, and twice while taking a combined contraceptive pill. No side-effects or changes in liver function were observed. This is further evidence that progestogens used for contraception, and in particular those derived from hydroxyprogesterone, are less hepatotox...

Ultrastructural Study in Canine Prostatic Hyperplasia

Chlormadinone acetate (CMA) and cyproterone acetate have been used in medicaltreatment of human benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) or prostatic carcinoma [2,3,8,9]. The atrophic effects of CMA on the prostate of rats and dogs have been previously reported from our laboratory[5,6]. Using spontaneous BPH dogs we found that immunostaining of androgen receptor (AR) in both epithelial and stromal fi...

Effect of chlormadinone acetate, a synthetic progesterone, on hypoxic ventilatory response in men.

Ten healthy young males were studied with a double-blind, cross-over trial to determine whether or not chlormadinone acetate (CMA), a potent synthetic progesterone, augments hypoxic chemosensitivity. Seven days after CMA administration, inspiratory minute volume (VI) and tidal volume (VT) significantly increased. PaCO2 decreased by 3.0 +/- 2.6 (S.D.) Torr (p less than 0.05) and plasma bicarbona...
