Free thiomalate in plasma and urine of patients receiving sodium aurothiomalate.
Free thiomalate is measureable in the plasma and urine of patients with rheumatoid arthritis receiving sodium aurothiomalate (Myocrisin). Plasma concentrations and urinary excretion of free thiomalate were measured in 8 patients by high-performance liquid chromatography and electrochemical detection. After an initial intramuscular dose of 20 mg sodium aurothiomalate, free thiomalate was detecte...
متن کاملFree thiomalate levels in patients with rheumatoid arthritis treated with disodium aurothiomalate: relationship to clinical outcome of therapy.

متن کاملFate of the thiomalate part after intramuscular administration of aurothiomalate in rheumatoid arthritis.
The excretory fate and plasma level of thiomalate were studied after intramuscular administration of auro-14C-thiomalate to 3 patients with rheumatoid arthritis. The gold and the thiomalate parts separated in vivo, and the free thiomalate was excreted in the urine, rapidly at first and then slowly. After one day about 60% of the 14C-label had been recovered in the urine. The plasma level also d...

متن کاملEndothelial Cell Adhesion Molecules
Endothelial adhesion molecules play an important role in the tissue recruitment of leukocytes in inflammatory conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis. We have investigated the effect of the antirheumatic drug gold sodium thiomalate on adhesion molecule protein and mRNA expression in cultured human endothelial cells. Gold sodium thiomalate inhibited cytokine (TNF, IL-1, IL-4)-stimulated expressi...
