NMR and mass spectroscopic evidence has been obtained which indicates that the product of the oxidation of o-phenylenediamine by hydrogen peroxide, uncatalyzed or catalyzed by horseradish peroxidase, is 2,3-diaminophenazine. These results settle disparate literature descriptions. The process is most likely

We have previously observed that Brown Norway (BN) rats display a relative resistance to experimental Chlamydia-induced arthritis. In the present study, we examine an environmental toxin, mercuric chloride (HgCl2), as a modulator of this innate resistance to arthritis. To assess

Excessive inflammation and apoptosis are pathological features of endotoxaemic acute renal failure. Activation of glycogen synthase kinase-3 (GSK-3) is involved in inflammation and apoptosis. We investigated the effects of inhibiting GSK-3 on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced acute renal failure, nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-kappaB)
