An Update On Proficiency of Voltage-gated Ion Channel Blockers in the Treatment of Inflammation-associated Diseases
Curr Drug Targets. 2022 Aug 19. doi: 10.2174/1389450123666220819141827. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTInflammation is the body's mechanism to trigger the immune system, thereby preventing bacteria and viruses from manifesting their toxic effect. Inflammation plays a vital role in regulating inflammatory mediator levels to initiate the wound healing process depending on the nature of the stimuli. This process occurs due to chemical release from white blood cells by elevating blood flow to the site of action, leading to redness and increased body temperature. Currently, there are numer-ous Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory dru...

A review on the current status of homeopathy in the clinical management of cancer
Curr Drug Targets. 2022 Aug 16. doi: 10.2174/1389450123666220816151547. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTHomeopathy is a widely practiced alternate system of medicine around the world that employs small doses of various medicines to promote auto-regulation and self-healing. It is among the most commonly used alternative approaches in cancer as well as other diseases, among other alternate therapeutic systems. It is widely used as palliative and as supportive therapy in cancer patients. Few cases have been reported on patients using homeopathy after surgery, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy, generally for overcoming side effects...

Oncostatin M: Risks and benefits of a Novel Therapeutic Target for Atherosclerosis
CONCLUSION: While OSM may be of therapeutic value in atherosclerosis, drug development should also focus on de-risking the herein identified major safety concerns: tissue remodeling, angiogenesis, bleeding, anemia, and NMDA- and glutamate-induced neurotoxicity. Close monitoring and/or exclusion of patients with various comorbidities may be required for optimal therapeutic benefit.PMID:35959619 | DOI:10.2174/1389450123666220811101032 (Source: Current Drug Targets)

Central effects of Ivermectin in alleviation of Covid-19-induced dysautonomia
Curr Drug Targets. 2022 Aug 10. doi: 10.2174/1389450123666220810102406. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTCovid-19 may be associated with various neurological disorders, including dysautonomia, a dysfunction of the autonomic nervous system (ANS). In Covid-19, hypoxia, immuno-inflammatory abnormality, and deregulation of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) may increase sympathetic discharge with dysautonomia development. Direct SARS-CoV-2 cytopathic effects and associated inflammatory reaction may lead to neuroinflammation, affecting different parts of the central nervous system (CNS), including the autonomic center in the hypot...

Redox interactions in chemo/radiation therapy-induced lung toxicity; mechanisms and therapy perspectives
Curr Drug Targets. 2022 Jul 5. doi: 10.2174/1389450123666220705123315. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTLung toxicity is a key limiting factor for the therapy of cancer, especially lung, breast, and esophageal malignancies. Radiotherapy for chest and breast malignancies can cause lung injury. However, systemic cancer therapy with chemotherapy also may induce lung pneumonitis and fibrosis. Radiotherapy produces reactive oxygen species (ROS) directly via interacting with water molecules within cells. However, radiation and other therapy modalities may induce the endogenous generation of ROS and nitric oxide (NO) by immune cells...
