Roles proposed for nitric oxide (NO) in CNS pathophysiology are increasingly diverse and range from intercellular signaling, through necrotic killing of cells and invading pathogens, to the involvement of NO in apoptosis and tissue remodeling. In vitro evidence and observations from experimental ani

Kupffer cells play important roles in the development of liver injury by producing cytokines and free radicals. In consequence inhibition of these inflammatory mediators will be one of the targets for treating liver diseases. Retinoids modulate a wide variety of functions of monocytes/macrophages. C
In response to the bacterial endotoxin, LPS, Kupffer cells are induced to express NO and TNF-โฃ. These compounds are involved in hepatic inflammation/injury, especially that associated with endotoxic shock. In this study, we demonstrate that ebselen (2-phenyl-1,2-benzisoselenazol-3[2H]one), a selenoo
