Sesquiterpene lactones of the guaianolide and eudermanolide types are considered of interest because they have an effect in the regulation and prevention of oxidative damage and inflammation-mediated biological damage. ...

Ethanol-induced oxidative damage is commonly associated with the generation of reactive oxygen molecules, leading to oxidative stress. Considering that antioxidant activity is an important mechanism of action involved in ...

Our objective was to evaluate the role of heme-oxygenase 1 (HO-1)/biliverdin/CO pathway in gastric defense against ethanol-induced gastric damage in mice. Mice were pre-treated with saline, hemin (HO-1 inducer), biliverdin ...

Leaves and bark infusions Anacardium humile St. Hil. (Anacardiaceae), known as in Brazil as cajuzinho do cerrado, have been used in folk medicine as an alternative treatment for ulcers and gastritis. This study evaluated ...

The aim of this study was to evaluate the protective effect of hydrogen sulfide (H(2)S) on ethanol-induced gastric lesions in mice and the influence of ATP-sensitive potassium (K(ATP)) channels, capsaicin-sensitive sensory ...
