background: lipophilic yeasts of the genus malassezia has been placed among the basidiomycota phylum in the family of cryptococcaceae. the genus malassezia comprises yeasts with a natural habitat of the skin of many warm-blooded vertebrates, and human, but they are also associated with several skin diseases such as tinea versicolor, seborrehoeic dermatitis and even systemic infections. the genu...

aqueous (hydrophilic) and chloroform (lipophilic) extracts of nine medicinal plants currently used in traditional medicine, in egypt, to treat some gastrointestinal tract (git) disorders were tested for their gastro-protective effect against the incidence of peptic ulcer. indomethacin-induced ulcer in a rat model was used for this testing. mentha microphylla, brassica oleracea capitata (cabbage...

BACKGROUND Statins are proposed as a chemoprevention agent for breast cancer due to their anti-inflammatory effect. The effects of lipophilic and hydrophilic statins on breast cancer risk might be different due to their different pharmacologic properties. Therefore, this study aimed to assess a casual-effect of lipophilic and hydrophilic statins on breast cancer risk using a counterfactual fram...

The phenomenon of multidrug resistance implies that a wide spectrum of structurally and functionally unrelated chemotherapeutic drugs are recognized and processed by the molecular system which protects multidrug-resistant (MDR) cells against lipophilic cytotoxic drugs. This suggests that lipophilic agents with low toxicity may also be recognized and processed by this molecular system. At high c...

BACKGROUND The effects of lipophilic statins in heart failure (HF) were controversial. The goal of the present study was to systematically review all randomised controlled trials evaluating the effects of lipophilic statins in patients with HF. METHODS We performed a comprehensive literature search to identify eligible trials that prospectively randomised patients with HF to lipophilic statin...
