Does the compatible solute ectoine protect against nanoparticle-induced neutrophilic lung inflammation?
Because compatible solutes are compliant natural products without known toxic potential, we propose that this group of substances may be used for the prevention of particle-induced airway inflammation in humans.
Statin-treated patients, despite a higher risk profile for progression, had reduced aortic stenosis progression compared with those not treated with a statin. These data provide justification for a prospective randomized trial to substantiate whether statin therapy slows the progression of aortic stenosis.
