Multiple Organ Damage Due to Boric Acid Toxicity
Background: Boric acid (BA) is commonly used as pesticide, disinfectant and wood preservative. Its ingestion can cause serious organ damages resulting in death. Case report: A 19 year old man was found dead with two empty packs of BA tablets in vicinity of his body. On autopsy examination, brownish stains along with right angle of mouth and right nostril were found. Stomach was damaged with hem...
متن کاملThe 5-lipoxygenase pathway: oxidative and inflammatory contributions to the Alzheimer’s disease phenotype
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common, and, arguably, one of the most-well studied, neurodegenerative conditions. Several decades of investigation have revealed that amyloid-β and tau proteins are critical pathological players in this condition. Genetic analyses have revealed specific mutations in the cellular machinery that produces amyloid-β, but these mutations are found in only a smal...
متن کاملGATA-6 transcriptional regulation of 15-lipoxygenase-1 during NSAID-induced apoptosis in colorectal cancer cells.
The mechanisms by which nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) induce apoptosis in colorectal cancer cells are undergoing intensive investigation. We found previously that NSAIDs induce apoptosis in these cells by restoring 15-lipoxygenase-1 (15-LOX-1) expression. The present study examined the NSAID mechanism for up-regulating 15-LOX-1 in two colorectal cancer cell lines (RKO and DLD-1)...

متن کاملMANIFESTATIONS OF TOXICITY Organ Toxicity
The discipline of toxicology considers the adverse effects of chemicals, including drugs, and other agents, such as biological toxins and radiation, on biological systems. Toxicity associated with drug action can generally be characterized as either an extension of the therapeutic effect, such as the fatal central nervous system (CNS) depression that may follow a barbiturate overdose, or as an ...
