    Journal of Applied Pharmaceutical Science Vol. 9(04), pp 117-125, April, 2019 Available online at http://www.japsonline.com DOI: 10.7324/JAPS.2019.90415 ISSN 2231-3354 Combined effects of celecoxib and cepharanthine on human colorectal cancer cells in vitro Parawee Lerdwanangkun1, Piyanuch Wonganan1, Robin James Storer2, Wacharee Limpanasithikul1* 1Department of Pharmacology, Faculty of Medicine, Chulalongkorn University, Bangkok, Thailand. 2Office of Research Affairs, Faculty of Medicine, Chulalongkorn University, Bangkok, Thailand. ARTICLE INFO ABSTRACT Received on: 11/09/2018 Colorectal cancer is one of the most common cancers worldwide. We investigated the combined effects of celecoxib Accepted on: 22/01/2019 (CLX)–cepharanthine (CEP) on HT-29 human colorectal cancer cells. CLX at 5, 10, 20, or 40 µM in combination Available online: 18/04/2019 with CEP at 1.25, 2.5, or 5 µM displayed synergistic cytotoxic effects with a combination index <1. Combinations of 20 or 40 µM of CLX with 1.25 or 2.5 µM of CEP increased HT-29 cell accumulation at the G1 phase of the cell cycle. The combined treatments increased the levels of p21 mRNA and decreased the levels of cyclin-A2 mRNA. Their Key words: combined effect triggered significant apoptosis of HT-29 cells when compared with the effect of each drug alone. The Celecoxib, cepharanthine, apoptotic effects of the drugs were correlated with increases in the levels of mRNA for BAX and decreases in the colorectal cancer, apoptosis, levels of mRNA for Bcl-xL. The results from this study revealed that at concentrations that were sub-IC individually, cell cycle.

  • This Fact Sheet Provides Information to Patients with Eczema and Their Carers. About Topical Corticosteroids How to Apply Topic
    This fact sheet provides information to patients with eczema and their carers. About topical corticosteroids You or your child’s doctor has prescribed a topical corticosteroid for the treatment of eczema. For treating eczema, corticosteroids are usually prepared in a cream or ointment and are applied topically (directly onto the skin). Topical corticosteroids work by reducing inflammation and helping to control an over-reactive response of the immune system at the site of eczema. They also tighten blood vessels, making less blood flow to the surface of the skin. Together, these effects help to manage the symptoms of eczema. There is a range of steroids that can be used to treat eczema, each with different strengths (potencies). On the next page, the potencies of some common steroids are shown, as well as the concentration that they are usually used in cream or ointment preparations. Using a moisturiser along with a steroid cream does not reduce the effect of the steroid. There are many misconceptions about the side effects of topical corticosteroids. However these treatments are very safe and patients are encouraged to follow the treatment regimen as advised by their doctor. How to apply topical corticosteroids How often should I apply? How much should I apply? Apply 1–2 times each day to the affected area Enough cream should be used so that the of skin according to your doctor’s instructions. entire affected area is covered. The cream can then be rubbed or massaged into the Once the steroid cream has been applied, inflamed skin. moisturisers can be used straight away if needed.

After 20 years of diabetes, almost all patients suffering from type I diabetes mellitus and about 60% of type II diabetics have DR. Several studies have tried to identify drugs and therapies to treat DR though little attention has been given to flavonoids, one type of polyphenols, which can be found in high levels mainly in fruits and vegetables, but also in other foods such as grains, cocoa, green tea or even in red wine.

  • Mometasone Powder Rationale for Inclusion In
    MOMETASONE POWDER RATIONALE FOR INCLUSION IN PA PROGRAM Background Mometasone is a corticosteroid demonstrating potent anti-inflammatory activity able to decrease inflammation through a mechanism of action that is not known. However, corticosteroids are thought to act by the induction of phospholipase A2, which leads to the inhibition of a common precursor for potent inflammatory mediators. Topical corticosteroids can be absorbed from normal intact skin. Inflammation and/or other disease processes in the skin increase percutaneous absorption (1). Mometasone is commercially available in the following dosage forms: topical cream, topical lotion, topical ointment, nasal spray and as a powder for inhalation. Regulatory Status FDA approved topical indication: Mometasone is a corticosteroid indicated for the relief of inflammatory and pruritic manifestations of corticosteroid-responsive dermatoses in patients 2 years of age and older (1). The safety and efficacy of mometasone have not been established in pediatric patients below 2 years of age (1). Summary Topical steroids have anti-inflammatory, antipruritic, and vasoconstrictive properties. Mometasone is FDA-approved for inflammatory and pruritic manifestations of corticosteroid- responsive dermatoses in patients 2 years of age and older. The safety and efficacy of mometasone have not been established in pediatric patients below 2 years of age (1). Mometasone is commercially available in the following dosage forms: topical cream, topical lotion, topical ointment, nasal spray and as powder for inhalation. Mometasone powder may be considered medically necessary in a topical formulation for patients 2 years of age or older for the treatment of inflammatory and pruritic manifestations of corticosteroid-responsive dermatoses. Mometasone powder may be considered investigational in a topical formulation for patients Mometasone Powder FEP Clinical Rationale MOMETASONE POWDER under the age of 2 years, or in patients without a diagnosis of inflammatory and pruritic manifestations of corticosteroid-responsive dermatoses.

Ciclesonide, an inhaled corticosteroid, suppressed replication of MERS-CoV 21 and other coronaviruses, including SARS-CoV-2, the cause of COVID-19, in cultured cells. The 22 effective concentration (EC90) of ciclesonide for SARS-CoV-2 in differentiated human bronchial 23 tracheal epithelial cells was 0.55 μM.
