Journal ArticleDOI

Suppressive effect of secretory phospholipase A2 inhibitory peptide on interleukin-1β-induced matrix metalloproteinase production in rheumatoid synovial fibroblasts, and its antiarthritic activity in hTNFtg mice

TL;DR: The results demonstrate the benefit that can be gained from using sPLA2 inhibitory peptide for RA treatment, and validate PIP-18 as a potential therapeutic in a clinically relevant animal model of human arthritis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Biochemical and pharmacological characterization of the venom of the black scorpion Heterometrus spinifer.

TL;DR: The venom of the black scorpion Heterometrus spinifer has not been reported to produce lethal cardiovascular complications, which is well known to result from scorpion envenomation as a consequence of a massive release of catecholamines as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Involvement of the l-arginine-nitric oxide synthase pathway in the relaxant responses of the rat isolated anococcygeus muscle to a scorpion (Leiurus quinquestriatus quinquestriatus) venom

TL;DR: The L-arginie-nitric oxide synthase- Nitric oxide pathway is involved in mediating the marked relaxant responses of the CCh precontracted Acm to LQO.
Journal ArticleDOI

Potential effects of tetrodotoxin exposure to human glial cells postulated using microarray approach.

TL;DR: A basic understanding of the differentially expressed genes is provided along with one of the possible pathway which may have been modulated by the exposure of TTX.
Journal ArticleDOI

Influence of vacuum on the formation of porous polymer films via water droplets templating

TL;DR: In this paper, the formation of ordered arrays of micron-sized holes on the surface of polymer films cast from volatile solvents in the presence of humidity in vacuum was reported.
