45 Ciprofloxacin, gatifloxacin, and levofloxacin were evaluated for their ability to prevent 46 mortality in hamsters infected with a lethal inoculum of Leptospira interrogans serovar 47 Portlandvere. Each agent produced a statistically significant survival advantage when 48 compared to no treatment and demonstrated survival similar to that seen with 49 doxycycline therapy. 50 51 52 53 54 55 56...

Gastric mucosal inflammation can develop after challenge with noxious stimuli such as alcohol. Specially, alcohol stimulates the release of inflammatory cytokines but does not increase gastric acid secretion, leading to gastric mucosal damage. The plant sterol guggulsterone and its novel derivative GG-52 have been reported to inhibit nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) signaling in intestinal epithelial ...
