Modifications of Capsaicin-Sensitive Neurons in Isolated Guinea Pig Ileum by [6]-Gingerol and Lafutidine

Journal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2003
A segment of guinea pig ileum was used to confirm the hypothesis that [6]-gingerol and lafutidine interact with capsaicin-sensitive neurons. Addition of 30 and 100 μM [6]-gingerol (a pungent constituent of ginger) induced contraction of the ileum ...

Vascular Calcification: Mechanisms, Models, and Therapies

iNew Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Vascular calcification represents an active multifactorial process that mirrors several key features of skeletal bone mineralization. Clinically, it is characterized by diminished arterial compliance and increased arterial wall stiffness, both of which serve as independent predictors of significant adverse cardiovascular events.

Gastric hemorrhage due to high pungency food?

JPGN Reports, EarlyView.
Abstract We present a case of a 9‐year‐old patient who presented with hematemesis after consuming crisps with a high pungency (the so‐called ghost peppers). Blood loss resulted in a significant decrease in hemoglobin and for this reason a gastroduodenoscopy was performed.
