Does vasoactive intestinal peptide ( VIP ) exacerbate endotoxin-induced uveitis ( EIU ) in mice?
This study further established the paradoxical observation that EIU is exacerbated by lowering the levels of circulating pro-inflammatory cytokines, in particular TNF-alpha.
In patients with AMI who do not receive thrombolytic therapy, ISDN effectively inhibits platelet adhesion and aggregation. These effects of nitrates may be of therapeutic and prognostic significance in this group of patients.
