    Conditional pharmacology: II. Ambivalent effects of aurocyanide, a putative active metabolite of anti-arthritic gold drugs, on human and rat PMN leucocytes

    Aurocyanide, and to a lesser extent, aurothiomalate and aurothiosulphate, showed diverse antioxidant/pro-oxidant effects on PMN leucocytes when stimulated ex-vivo to generate hydrogen peroxide. In normal human...

    Is aspirin a prodrug for antioxidant and cytokine-modulating oxymetabolites

    Aspirin and salicylate are transformed by stimulated human polymorphonuclear leucocytes (PMN), likely to be found at inflammatory sites, into both 2,3- and 2,5-dihydroxybenzoates (DHB). These DHB inhibit both ...

    Complete prevention of the clinical expression of adjuvant-induced arthritis in rats by cyclosporin-A and lobenzarit: The regulation of lymph node cell populations and cytokine production

    A single dose of either cyclosporin-A (CsA) or lobenzarit (CCA) given with an arthrogenic adjuvant completely prevented expression of experimental adjuvant arthritis in rats. The aim of this study was to under...

    A comparison between the effects of meloxicam and other nsaids on the production of oxyradicals by human polymorphonuclear leucocytes

    Some non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) inhibit the production or actions of oxygen radicals generated by polymorphonuclear leucocytes (PMNs); this mechanism may contribute towards their anti-infla...
