Restrict the search for
methylprednisolone succinate
to a specific field?
There has been little interest in the biological and pharmacological application of triamcinolone acetonide hemisuccinate. Although, at one time this compound was used as a topical steroid to treat the ocular inflammation.

Conditions:
Cobalt is a transition metal, naturally ocurring in the minerals cobaltite, smaltite, and erythrite, and is often associated with nickel, silver, lead, copper, and iron ores, from which it is most frequently obtained as a by-product. Depending on the considered species, cobalt has multiple industrial applications including the production of alloys and hard metal, diamond polishing, drying agents, pigments and catalysts. Cobalt is an essential component of Vitamin B12 (hydroxycolalamin). Cobalt functions as a co-factor in enzyme catalysed reactions and is involved in the production of erythropoietin, a hormone that stimulates the formation of erythrocytes. Cobalt salts were used to treat anemia and stimulate erythropoiesis, but was withdrawn from market since Co(II) cations are genotoxic in vitro and in vivo, and carcinogenic in rodents. Hovewer, Co salts are reported to be used by athletes as a doping

Targets:
Oxprenolol is clinically a well-established beta blocker that shares with other members of this group the ability to control a variety of disorders, in particular, hypertension and angina. Pharmacologically it is a nonselective beta blocker that possesses partial agonist activity (intrinsic sympathomimetic activity). Pharmacokinetically, oxprenolol behaves as a moderately lipophilic agent. Oxprenolol undergoes first pass metabolism with only 30% of an oral dose reaching the systemic circulation. The drug is approximately 80% protein bound and is eliminated primarily by glucuronidation in the liver. Less than 4% of oxprenolol is excreted unchanged in the urine. Oxprenolol may reduce the heart rate and prolong the effective and functional atrioventricular nodal refractory period. Oxprenolol has less negative inotropic and chronotropic effects than propranolol. Plasma renin activity is reduced; however, changes in plasma aldosterone level are not significant. Long term metabolic effects require further study. Chest pain (angina), high blood pressure (hypertension), irregular heart beats and anxiety are indications for Oxprenolol usage. To date Oxprenolol is discontinued by FDA.

Conditions:
Lysing is an essential basic amino-acid encoded by codone AAA and AAG, and used in the biosynthesis of proteins. The daily requirement for lysine is 38 mg/kg body weight. The most rich source of lysine is fish, beef, chicken. In a clinical study lysine supplements was found to be an effective for reduction of occurrence, severity and healing time for recurrent HSV infection, however Cochrane Review concluded that the evidence is insufficient. Lysine was investigated for improving anxiety, ameliorating angina prectoris. Lysine acetylsalicylate has been used to treat pain and to detoxify the body after heroin use. Lysine clonixinate has been used for its analgesic properties for the treatment of migraine headaches and other painful conditions. However, limited clinical trials exist for these conditions.

Pregnenolone succinate is a synthetic pregnane steroid and an ester of pregnenolone which is described as a glucocorticoid and anti-inflammatory drug and has been patented and marketed as a topical medication in the form of a cream for the treatment of allergic, pruritic, and inflammatory dermatitis. In addition to its glucocorticoid effects, pregnenolone succinate has been found to act as a negative allosteric modulator of the GABAA receptor and a positive allosteric modulator of the NMDA receptor similarly to pregnenolone sulfate.

Pregnenolone sulfate is an endogenous neurosteroid with excitatory effects in the brain, acting as a potent negative allosteric modulator of the GABAA receptor, a positive allosteric modulator of the NMDA receptor, and activator of transient receptor potential cation channel TRPM1 and TRPM3. In the model of schizophrenia, treatment with pregnenolone sulfate normalized the hyperlocomotion and stereotypic bouts, and rescued the PPI deficits of dopamine transporter knockout mice. Promnesic properties of pregnenolone sulfate were demonstrated in rat models of spatial memory performance.

Chloramphenicol is a broad-spectrum antibiotic that was first isolated from
Streptomyces venezuelae in 1947. The drug was subsequently chemically synthesized. It has both a bacteriostatic and bactericidal effect; in the usual therapeutic concentrations it is bacteriostatic. Chloramphenicol is used for the treatment of serious gram-negative, gram-positive, and anaerobic infections. It is especially useful in the treatment of meningitis, typhoid fever, and cystic fibrosis. It should be reserved for infections for which other drugs are ineffective or contraindicated. Chloramphenicol, a small inhibitor of bacterial protein synthesis, is active against a variety of bacteria and readily enters the CSF. It has been used extensively in the last decades for the treatment of bacterial meningitis. In industrialized countries, chloramphenicol is restricted mostly to topical uses because of the risk of induction of aplastic anemia. However, it remains a valuable reserve antibiotic for patients with allergy to β-lactam antibiotics or with CNS infections caused by multiresistant pathogens.
