Medical Forum / Diseases and Disorders / Arthritis / November 2006Cherries anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidative effects
Anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidative effects of cherries on Freund's adjuvant-induced arthritis in rats. He YH, Zhou J, Wang YS, Xiao C, Tong Y, Tang JC, Chan AS, Lu AP Scand J Rheumatol. 2006 Sep-Oct ; 35(5): 356-8 Objectives: To investigate the anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidative effects of anthocyanins from cherries on Freund's adjuvant-induced arthritis (AIA) in rats.Methods: Arthritis was induced intradermally by injection with 0.1 mL of complete Freund's adjuvant (CFA) into the right hind footpad of male Sprague Dawley (SD) rats. Anthocyanins at 40, 20 and 10 mg/kg (body weight) were administered orally to the treated rats for 28 days after the injection. Tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNFalpha) in serum and prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) in paws were assayed by radioimmunoassay (RIA), and anti-oxidative effects was assayed by measuring total anti-oxidative capacity (T-AOC), superoxide dismutase (SOD) and malondialdehyde (MDA) in serum.Results: Anthocyanins at 40 mg/kg significantly decreased the levels of TNFalpha in serum and PGE2 in paws, simultaneously improving the anti-oxidative status of AIA. We found that at this dosage T-AOC was potentized, the activity of SOD increased and the level of MDA in serum decreased. However, anthocyanins at 20 and 10 mg/kg had less effect on the inflammatory factors and anti-oxidative capacity of AIA.Conclusions: Anthocyanins have potential anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidative effects on AIA.

OH, you cruel man. Harming a mammal like that. I"m going to report you to the ASPCA and the local eco-freaks in Canada. May you concurrently develop every known form of arthritis, simutaneously and all at once. ... PETA: People Eating Tasty Animals Hope someone dissects you while you are alive, loser. animals feel pain as much as we do. We torture these animals because we can not because of any moral right. > The Rusty Bucket again spoke: > [quoted text clipped - 11 lines] > > ... PETA: People Eating Tasty Animals <snip> "We torture these animals because we can not because of any moral right." hunh? run that by me again. why do "we", and apparently you mean you mean you do it too, torture these animals? kate (and i thought i had been badly blowing syntax and not making clear sense. whew! i feel better now.)

Well at least we all know what to do the next time one of our rats gets into the mycobacteria stash. Tommy continues to be such a gift in our little corner of the world. What did we DO to deserve it? johnie Well at least we all know what to do the next time one of our rats gets into the mycobacteria stash. Tommy continues to be such a gift in our little corner of the world. What did we DO to deserve it? johnie i dunno, johnie. maybe all of asa's "magnetic" personalities attract him? ô¿ô kate Or does he feed on iron filings ? 'The adjuvant is known to stimulate production of tumor necrosis factor, which is thought to kill the T-cells responsible for the autoimmune destruction of the pancratic Beta cells' (in diabetes') - So why does't it kill the T cells responsible for the propagation of RA ?

'The adjuvant is known to stimulate production of tumor necrosis factor, which is thought to kill the T-cells responsible for the autoimmune destruction of the pancratic Beta cells' (in diabetes') - So why does't it kill the T cells responsible for the propagation of RA ? because it would spoil rusty rump's obsessive-compulsive idea of fun! kate Peter d'huit wrote: > Well at least we all know what to do the next time one of our rats gets > into the mycobacteria stash.
