Neutral bidentate N-O type complexe of VO(II) has been synthesized through condensation of Dpenicillamine,(D-H2Pen), with Bis(acetylacetonate)- oxovanadium(IV),[VO(acac)2], at neutralmedium . The established schiff base(NO type) complex was characterized on the basis of IR andmass spectroscopy techniques.Besides,D-H2Pen binding behavior to[VO(acac)2] has been studiedin thermodynamic viewpoint u...

Avicennia marina (Avicenniaceae) is a species of mangrove tree used for treatment of small pox lesions in Persian folk medicine. The antiviral activity of methanol, ethanol, water, chloroform and n-hexane extracts was evaluated against HIV-1 and HSV. Methanol extract had the highest antiviral activity and the most polar fraction of this extract (fraction D) inhibited HSV with TI and SI values o...

BACKGROUND Chinese medicine has been proposed as a novel strategy for the prevention of metabolic disorders such as obesity. The present study tested 17 Chinese medicinal herbs were tested for their potential anti-obesity effects. METHODS The herbs were evaluated in terms of their abilities to stimulate the transcription of Apolipoprotein A-IV (ApoA-IV) in cultured Caco-2/TC7 enterocytes. The...

This study presents the first systematic investigation of the anti-diabetic properties of non-oxido V(IV) complexes. In particular, the insulin-mimetic activity of [V(IV)(taci)2](4+), [V(IV)(inoH-3)2](2-), [V(IV)(dhab)2], [V(IV)(hyph(Ph))2], [V(IV)(cat)3](2-) and [V(IV)(pdbh)2]--where taci is 1,3,5-triamino-1,3,5-trideoxy-cis-inositol, ino is cis-inositol, H2dhab is 2,2'-dihydroxyazobenzene, H2...

OBJECTIVE To assess whether secukinumab treatment in patients with active psoriatic arthritis (PsA) is associated with sustained inhibition of radiographic progression. METHODS In this phase III, double-blind, placebo-controlled study, 606 patients with PsA were randomized to receive intravenous (IV) secukinumab at a dose of 10 mg/kg (weeks 0, 2, 4) followed by subcutaneous secukinumab at a d...

Objective: In the scope of this study, it was tried to examine probable benefits brusatol against ovarian tissue injury originating from bilateral torsion/detorsion (T/D). Material and Methods: experimental animals were randomized 4 groups. Groups programmed as sham group I (control), II (T/D), III (DMSO+T/D) IV (Brusatol+T/D). Group I; abdomen region barbered, disinfected, opened by incision c...

methoxy poly(ethylene glycol) (mpeg) with molecular mass of 5 kda activated with succinimidyl carbonate and cyanuric chloride, separately was covalently attached to human red blood cells (rbcs). inhibition of agglutination by blood-type specific antisera (anti-d) was employed to evaluate the effect of the polymer coating. the remaining single cells after incubation with anti-d sera were counted...

BACKGROUND Angiotensin II (Ang II) stimulates synthesis of type IV collagen in a cultured murine proximal tubular cell line (MCT cells). In addition, Ang II also induces the expression of TGF-beta1 in these cells. Since TGF-beta has well-known stimulatory effects on the transcription of various collagens, we tested whether the Ang-II-mediated stimulation of type IV collagen is due to induction ...
