The author discusses the validity of the claim that, in Antiquity, effective contraceptives and abortifacients were available, were widely used, and their use was responsible for the decline of population in certain periods. After reviewing the maneuvers and drugs used for those purposes, the author concludes that ancient physicians did not have at their disposal effective ...

Neosporosis is an infection of animals caused by an intracellular coccidian parasite, Neospora caninum, closely related to Toxoplasma gondii. The parasite is one of important abortifacient agents of bovine abortions worldwide. The aim of the study was to detect the prevalence of anti-Neospora antibodies in dairy aborting sheep from two eastern Slovak ...
Steroidal and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agents were evaluated for effectiveness for treatment of acute T-2 toxicosis in mice. Non-steroidal agents, indomethacin, phenylbutazone, and acetylsalicyclic acid, were either ineffective, or potentiated the ...

Misoprostol, a synthetic analog of prostaglandin E1, is currently used in Chile and other countries as an antiulcer medication, mainly for the prevention of non-steroidal anti-infammatory-induced gastric ulcers. Due to its uterotonic properties, it is also indicated in obstetrics for induction of labor and termination of pregnancy. In this last case, misoprostol is either used ...

Patients with moderate-to-severe disease and patients with steroid-refractory or steroid-dependent disease differ in their management, as the latter two groups usually involve patients whose condition is less acute. Systemic corticosteroids represent the mainstay of the management of moderate-to-severe disease and remain the first-line therapy in this ...

Steroids have become a most important addition to the growing list of valuable therapeutic agents that have been introduced into ophthalmology since the end of World War II. Their widespread and sometimes injudicious use, however, has led to a number of o...
Abstract Triclosan is an antibacterial agent commonly used in industry and often detected in wastewater effluent. The potential of triclosan to act as an endocrine disruptor was examined because its chemical structure closely resembles known non-steroidal estrogens (e....

In in vivo and in vitro experiments, androgen anabolic steroid agents (testosterone, methandrostenolone) and dexamethasone showed a dose-dependent inhibition of PHA-stimulated proliferation of C57BL/6 mice thymocytes. The phytoecdysteroidal anabolic steroid ecdystene failed to inhibit thymocytic proliferation. The competitive ...
The plasma membranes of cells of the decidual tissue specifically bind complexes of the sex steroid-binding globulin (SBG) of the blood with estrogens (estradiol, estriol, estrone) and the pharmacological agent danazol but do not interact with SBG-testosterone and SBG-dihydrotestosterone complexes.
