Drug points: Hypersensitivity reaction to balsalazide.
Balsalazide is used in short term and maintenance treatment of ulcerative colitis. It is a prodrug in which 5-aminosalicylic acid is linked via a diazo bond to 4-aminobenzoyl-â-alanine, an inert and biologically inactive carrier molecule. We report a case of a hypersensitivity reaction to balsalazide, involving pericarditis, an abnormal liver biochemistry profile, and splinter haemorrhages. A 5...
متن کاملHydrolysis of retinol palmitate by rat liver.
Retinol acetate hydrolase is localized in rat liver microsomes whereas the retinol palmitate-hydrolyzing activity was found in the nuclear and in the mitochondrial lysosome-rich fractions. Acetone-dried powder from whole rat liver retained all of its retinol palmitate-hydrolyzing activity. Ammonium sulfate fractionation of the acetone-dried powder yielded a partially purified enzyme liberating ...
متن کاملPharmacokinetics of retinyl palmitate and retinol after intramuscular retinyl palmitate administration in severe malaria.
Retinol (vitamin A alcohol) is an accepted adjunctive treatment in infections such as measles. There is also indirect evidence from in vitro, animal and human studies that retinol supplementation may be beneficial in severe malaria. There have, however, been no studies that have examined the pharmacokinetics of acute retinol supplementation in severe illness. To establish whether mobilization o...
متن کاملRetinol palmitate counteracts oxidative injury during experimental septic shock.
INTRODUCTION Retinols seem to be of clinical importance in ameliorating the clinical consequences of septic shock. These beneficial effects of retinols are suggested to be due to an antioxidant property. The present study was undertaken in order to confirm or rule out such an effect of retinol palmitate (RP) in experimental septic shock by measuring F2-isoprostanes and a major prostaglandin F2 ...
متن کاملRetinol and Retinyl Palmitate in Foetal Lung Mice: Sexual Dimorphism
In this work, we evaluate the lung retinoids content to study the possible difference between male and female mice during prenatal development and to comprehend if the vitamin A metabolism is similar in both genders. The study occurred between developmental days E15 and E19, and the retinol and retinyl palmitate lung contents were determined by HPLC analysis. We established two main groups: the...
