Some aspects of cardiac antioxidant defence: Ebselen (PZ 51) treatment increases glutathione peroxidase activity in the rat heart
1990
Ebselcn (PZ 5 1 : 2-phenyl1.2-benzisoelenazol-3-( 2H)-one 1 is ii synthetic organoselenium compound with anti-inflammatory activity ( I . 21, which exhibits glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px)-like activity, catalysing the reduction o f hydrogen peroxide as well as other organic peroxides [3-5]. Its antiinflammatory effect may be mediated by either the GSH-Px activity, the inhibition of leukotriene B4 formation [6], the antioxidant capacity, or a combination of all of them. Many attempts have been made to increase the antioxidant capacity of the myocardium, since free radical generation has been demonstrated in ischaemia-reperfusion damage [7, 81; superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase have be…
Role of oxygen and nitrogen species in experimental uveitis: anti-inflammatory activity of the synthetic antioxidant ebselen.
2002
This study was aimed at examining the role of oxygen and nitrogen reactive species in a model of experimental uveitis upon intravitreal injection of bacterial endotoxin to albino New Zealand rabbits. The inflammatory response was evaluated in terms of: (i) the integrity of the blood aqueous barrier (protein and cell content in samples of aqueous humor), (ii) histopathological changes of the eyes, (iii) clinical evaluation (with a score index based on clinical symptoms), and (iv) the concentration of malondialdehyde (MDA), in aqueous humor, as a marker of oxidative stress. Betamethasone was used as reference treatment, superoxide dismutase as quencher of superoxide anion, L-N(G)-nitro-L-argi…
Single-dose ebselen does not afford sustained neuroprotection to rats subjected to severe focal cerebral ischemia
2004
Oxygen free radicals have been involved in the pathophysiology of cerebral ischemia, especially after spontaneous or thrombolytic reperfusion. In this study with rats, we have combined a severe focal ischemic insult (2 h) and a prolonged reperfusion time (7 days) to assess the possible sustained neuroprotective effect of ebselen (10 or 100 mg/kg), a small, lipophilic organoselenium compound which mimics glutathione peroxidase. Parietal cortical perfusion was measured by laser-Doppler flowmetry, and focal cerebral ischemia was carried out by the intraluminal thread method. We have measured plasma selenium levels, brain reduced glutathione levels, as a marker of oxidative stress, and infarct …
Ebselen prevents chronic alcohol-induced rat hippocampal stress and functional impairment
2007
Background: Most of the previously published data suggest a role for oxidative or nitrosative stress in ethanol-induced nervous system damage. Moreover, ethanol is able to impair learning abilities in adult mammalian brain, a process suggested to be directly related to hippocampal neurogenesis. Ebselen, a synthetic compound with antioxidant properties, is able to prevent ethanol-induced impairment of neurogenesis in adult rats. The aim of the present work was to further demonstrate the ability of ebselen to prevent biochemical alterations, and preserve long-term potentiation (LTP) and learning abilities, in the hippocampus of chronic alcoholic adult rats. Methods: Biochemical markers of oxi…
Towards Service-oriented 5G: Virtualizing the Networks for Everything-as-a-Service
2018
It is widely acknowledged that the forthcoming 5G architecture will be highly heterogeneous and deployed with a high degree of density. These changes over the current 4G bring many challenges on how to achieve an efficient operation from the network management perspective. In this article, we introduce a revolutionary vision of the future 5G wireless networks, in which the network is no longer limited by hardware or even software. Specifically, by the idea of virtualizing the wireless networks, which has recently gained increasing attention, we introduce the Everything-as-a-Service (XaaS) taxonomy to light the way towards designing the service-oriented wireless networks. The concepts, chall…
Pourquoi la génétique humaine a-t-elle besoin des sciences humaines et sociales ?
2019
L’introduction récente du séquençage haut débit du génome détermine une situation complexe marquée du sceau de l’accélération ; elle pose des problèmes éprouvés par les patients, les médecins ou les chercheurs à partir d’expériences de pratique clinique ou de recherche. Ces pratiques situées suscitent un besoin de réflexivité souvent difficile à assumer dans l’urgence de l’action et la segmentation encore forte des métiers. La Fédération Hospitalo-Universitaire (FHU) TRANSLAD Bourgogne Franche Comté constitue une structure pluridisciplinaire et plurielle pour encadrer l’arrivée du séquençage haut débit dans le soin. Ne préjugeant pas de ses objets, fonctions ou champs, elle se situe d’abord…
Cellular imaging using BODIPY-, pyrene- and phthalocyanine-based conjugates
2017
International audience; Fluorescent Probes aimed at absorbing in the blue/green region of the spectrum and emitting in the green/red have been synthesized (as the form of dyads-pentads), studied by spectrofluorimetry, and used for cellular imaging. The synthesis of phthalocyanine-pyrene 1 was achieved by cyclotetramerization of pyrenyldicyanobenzene, whereas phthalocyanine-BODIPY 2c was synthesized by Sonogashira coupling between tetraiodophthalocyanine and meso-alkynylBODIPY. The standard four-steps BODIPY synthesis was applied to the BODIPY-pyrene dyad 3 starting from pyrenecarbaldehyde and dimethylpyrrole. H-1, C-13, F-19, (BNMR)-B-11, ICP, MS, and UV/Vis spectroscopic analyses demonstra…
Photoreduction of carbon dioxide to formic acid in aqueous suspension: a comparison between phthalocyanine/TiO2 and porphyrin/TiO2 catalysed processes
2014
Composite materials prepared by loading polycrystalline TiO2 powders with lipophilic highly branched Cu(II)- and metal-free phthalocyanines or porphyrins, which have been used in the past as photocatalysts for photodegradative processes, have been successfully tested for the efficient photoreduction of carbon dioxide in aqueous suspension affording significant amounts of formic acid. The results indicated that the presence of the sensitizers is beneficial for the photoactivity, confirming the important role of Cu(II) co-ordinated in the middle of the macrocycles. A comparison between Cu(II) phthalocyanines and Cu(II) porphyrins indicated that the Cu(II)- phthalocyanine sensitizer was more e…
Evaluation of [1,2]oxazolo[5,4-e]isoindoles in lymphoma cells
2020
Anti-tubulin agents are important chemotherapeutics. Combretastatin A-4 (CA-4) emerged as lead compound for the design of new tubulin-binding agents. Its analogues 4,5-diarylisoxazoles, containing the [1,2]oxazole ring as linker of two aryl moieties, displayed higher antitubulin activity than CA-4. [1,2]oxazolo[5,4-e]isoindoles also gave excellent results reducing cell growth of NCI-60 tumor cell lines and diffuse malignant peritoneal mesothelioma (DMPM) cells. Selected derivatives showed in vivo antitumor activity at well-tolerated doses in a DMPM xenograft model. [1,2]oxazolo[5,4-e]isoindoles were screened in four lymphoma histotypes: germinal center B-cell and activated diffuse large B c…
La première rencontre du corps malade en contexte de soins infirmiers : la relation de soin : une expérience ultime, du sensible au social
2016
Our study focuses on nursing care with a first approach based on human body and emotions through the teaching context in the sensitive hospital environment. The nursing student is a central point of our research as he lives a unique sensitive and interpersonal experience within his own body in a social setting imbued with symbolism. He perceives health care community through his five senses which inform and direct him, but also may destabilize him. We decided to base our study on the information and communication sciences thanks to a sensitive, sensorial and symbolic problematisation and through a multidisciplinary conceptualization based on different theoretical approaches, symbolic intera…
