introduction: ulcerative colitis is a chronic inflammation of the large intestine (colon). in patients with ulcerative colitis, ulcers and inflammation of the inner lining of the colon lead to symptoms such as abdominal pain, diarrhea, and rectal bleeding. previous studies have shown that matricaria recutita l. have a series of physiological effects for example spasmolytic, carminative, antioxi...

Background: Angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) upregulation in stromal cells of joints affected by rheumatoid arthritis may lead to higher tissue angiotensin II that is a vasoconstrictor and mitogen factor. To date, the role of angiotensin II on regulating blood flow in inflamed joints has not been studied. Methods: Acute and chronic joint inflammation was induced in rabbits by intra-articular...

introduction: immune system is involved in the etiology and pathophysiology of inflammation and vitamins are important sources of substances inducing nonspecific immunomodulatory effects. given the proinflammatory role of cytokines in the inflammation and pain induction, this study aimed to assess the effects of long-term administration of vitamin b1 on the proinflammatory cytokines, edema, and...

kaolin-so3h as a new solid acid is prepared via reaction of kaolin and chlorosulfonic acid. this natural based catalyst is very inexpensive and easy available. imidazoles are an important class of heterocycles being the core fragment of different natural products and biological systems such as anti-allergic, anti-inflammatory, analgesic, antifungal, antimycotic, antibiotic, antiulcerative, anti...

Prostate cancer (PC) risk differs between races, and we previously showed prostate inflammation in benign prostate tissue was linked with a lower future PC risk. However, whether prostate tissue inflammation varies by race is unknown. We analyzed baseline acute and chronic prostate inflammation by race in REDUCE, a 4-year, multicenter, placebo-controlled study where all men had a negative prost...

Hierarchical SAPO-34 zeolite with high crystallinity and excellent hydrothermal stability was directly synthesized in the nanoscale confined environment provided by the natural layered material kaolin.

Abstract Kaolin waste dumps contain a huge volume of material that cannot be commercialized due to the presence variable amounts iron minerals, which impart yellowish color kaolin. Elimination from kaolin using either chemical or biological method was aim this study. The leaching carried out response surface methodology optimize reaction conditions. Time found most influential variable, althoug...

Cytokine-induced neutrophil mobilization from the bone marrow to circulation is a critical event in acute inflammation, but how it is accurately controlled remains poorly understood. In this study, we report that CXCR2 ligands are responsible for rapid neutrophil mobilization during early-stage acute inflammation. Nevertheless, although serum CXCR2 ligand concentrations increased during inflamm...
