Excessive inflammation reactions with a cytokine storm in the lungs have historically been thought as the primary cause of fatal acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). However, interruption of inflammatory cytokine activation failed to attenuate ARDS, suggesting that other therapies are

Octoclothepin (1) was resolved into its R and S enantiomers via the diastereomeric tartaric acid salts. The enantiomers were shown to be of high optical purity by 1H NMR with use of the chiral shift reagent (R)-(-)-2,2,2-trifluoro-1-(9-anthryl)ethanol. Pharmacological and biochemical

Cerebral α₁-adrenoceptors are a common target for many antipsychotic drugs. Thus, access to positron emission tomography (PET) brain imaging of α₁-adrenoceptors could make important contributions to the understanding of psychotic disorders as well as to the pharmacokinetics and occupancy of
Glycation and the accumulation of advanced glycation end products (AGEs) are known to occur during normal aging but also in the progression of several diseases, such as diabetes. Diabetes type II and aging both lead to impaired wound healing. It

Conformational analysis with molecular mechanics (MM2(85] and molecular superimposition studies of (1R,3S)-(+)- and (1S,3R)-(-)-4-[3-(4-fluorophenyl)-6-(trifluoromethyl)indan-1-yl]-1- piperazineethanol (tefludazine) and (S)-(+)- and (R)-(-)-octoclothepin have been employed to identify biologically active conformations of these compounds with respect to dopamine receptor antagonism and amine-uptake inhibition.
