DMSO - The Real Miracle Solution Gabriela Segura, M.D. Sott.net Thu, 12 May 2011 08:12 CDT In 1866, Russian scientist Alexander Saytzeff isolated a most curious and peculiar chemical compound. It was crystalline, odor-less, non-toxic and had a garlic-like taste when consumed. At the time, Saytzeff had no way to predict
DMSO- The Best Treatment That You’ve Never Heard Of
What is DMSO? DMSO (Dimethyl Sulfoxide) is a powerful healer that originates from trees and is a byproduct of the paper industry. It is currently actively used in human and equine sports medicine; it’s used to help horses’ recover quicker after training and used by physios during games/ matches to help athletes get back into the game after injury. It’s also used in the transportation of organs during transplants and in drug delivery systems. In addition, it can be administered as first aid to st
Macular pigment optical density and its relationship with serum and dietary levels of lutein and zeaxanthin - PubMed
Observational evidence is accumulating that the onset of age-related maculopathy, the leading cause of legal blindness in the Western World, could be delayed, or even averted, with antioxidant supplements. Lutein (L) and zeaxanthin (Z) are two hydroxy-carotenoids with antioxidant activity which accu …
Transport and retinal capture of lutein and zeaxanthin with reference to age-related macular degeneration - PubMed
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is the most common cause of irreversible blindness in the elderly population in the western world. The etiology and pathogenesis of this disease remain unclear. However, there is an increasing body of evidence supporting the hypothesis that the macular pigment …
Solubility, uptake and biocompatibility of lutein and zeaxanthin delivered to cultured human retinal pigment epithelial cells in tween40 micelles - PubMed
Carotenoids lutein and zeaxanthin are proposed to protect ocular tissues from free-radical damage that can cause cataract and age-related macular degeneration (AMD). They accumulate selectively in the lens and macular region of the retina. Changes in the retinal pigment epithelium are characteristic …
Effects of organic solvents on two retinal pigment epithelial lipofuscin fluorophores, A2E and all-trans-retinal dimer - PubMed
Gene and drug therapies are being developed to alleviate vision loss in patients with Stargardt's disease and age-related macular degeneration (AMD). To evaluate the therapeutic effects of these treatments, organic solvents are routinely used to extract and quantify bisretinoid lipofuscin constituen …
Salidroside - Can it be a Multifunctional Drug? - PubMed
Salidroside is produced by a three-step pathway in the plants with tyrosol as an intermediate molecule. The molecule is biotransformed into many metabolites through phase I and II pathways. These metabolites, together with a certain amount of salidroside may be responsible for various pharmacologica …
Higher Irradiance and Photodynamic Therapy for Age-Related Macular Degeneration (An AOS Thesis)
Photodynamic therapy (PDT) using verteporfin was the first pharmacologic therapy for neovascular age-related macular degeneration and changed the treatment paradigm for a major, blinding disease. The experimental work in the nonhuman primate was essential ...
Comparison of cytokine levels from undiluted vitreous of untreated patients with retinal vein occlusion
Purpose: To compare cytokines in undiluted vitreous of treatment-naïve patients with macular oedema without vitreomacular traction secondary to branch (BRVO), central (CRVO) and hemi-central (H-CRVO...
YC-1 Inhibits VEGF and Inflammatory Mediators Expression on Experimental Central Retinal Vein Occlusion in Rhesus Monkey - PubMed
Intravitreal injection of YC-1 significantly alleviated macular edema compared with that of DMSO control group. Meanwhile, both inflammatory factors and angiogenesis-related factors expression were inhibited in vitreous by YC-1 injection.
[Local application of dimethyl sulfoxide at different concentrations to the prevention of radiation-induced damages in patient with cancer of the cervix uteri] - PubMed
Local application of DMSO is a method for preventing late radiation-induced damages to the rectum and urinary bladder in patients with CUC. When the concentration of DMSO is increased, its preventive effect increases.
Dimethyl sulfoxide: recent pharmacological and toxicological research - PubMed
A survey of the literature published in the past 2 decades on the basic pharmacology, therapeutic uses and toxicity of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) is presented. A salient pharmacological action of DMSO is its ability to scavenge oxygen-free radicals implicated in xenobiotic-induced tissue damages when …
Application of Dimethyl Sulfoxide as a Therapeutic Agent and Drug Vehicle for Eye Diseases - PubMed
Dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) is an amphipathic molecule widely used as a solvent for water-insoluble substances, cryopreserving, and cell-biological therapies. It has known properties as an inducer of cellular differentiation, a free radical scavenger, and a radioprotectant. In addition, DMSO is used f …
Effects of dimethyl sulfoxide on ocular inflammation - PubMed
The anti-inflammatory properties of topical ocular dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) were investigated using a standard experimental model of an acute inflammatory ocular inflammation. Ninety percent and 100% DMSO aggravated the inflammatory response, 50% to 70% DMSO had similar responses as the control eye …
