Liver ischemia/reperfusion injury has been extensively studied during the last decades and
has been implicated in the pathophysiology of many clinical entities following hepatic …

The enzyme xanthine oxidoreductase (XOR) catalyses the last step of purine degradation in
the highest uricotelic primates as a rate-limiting enzyme in nucleic acid catabolism. Although …

The flavonoid family shows a high potential for inhibition of xanthine oxidase. Currently,
more than 4000 flavonoids are known. The data of this study indicate that a planar structure …

Relative hypoventilation, involving passively—or “permissively”—generated hypercapnic
acidosis (HCA), may improve outcome by reducing ventilator-induced lung injury. However …

LPS and selected cytokines upregulate xanthine dehydrogenase/xanthine oxidase
(XDH/XO) in cellular systems. However, the effect of these factors on in vivo XDH/XO …

To investigate the status of soluble adhesion molecules (sAMs) during aging, the present
study determined protein levels of several major sAMs in serum samples obtained from rats …

The intestine is highly sensitive to ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury. Intestinal I/R may cause
local tissue injury and disruption of the intestinal mucosal barrier, allowing the passage of …

Context: Blumea balsamifera DC (Compositae) leaves have been recommended for use as
a folk medicine in the treatment of various diseases related to urolithiasis in southeast Asia …

The aim of the present work was to investigate possible protective effects of febuxostat, a
highly potent xanthine oxidase inhibitor, against acute lung injury (ALI) induced by …

Lung oxidative stress (OS) was explored in resting and in exercising subjects exposed to
moderate and high altitude. Exhaled breath condensate (EBC) was collected under field …
