Disease relevance of ethanedial

  • Oxypolygelatine is commercially available for clinical use as a plasma expander, is 30-fold less expensive than human serum albumin, is certified free of foreign serum proteins and antibodies as well as free of pyrogen, viral, mycoplasmal and bovine spongiform encephalopathy contaminants [1].
  • OBJECTIVE/METHODS: The pharmacokinetics of the plasma substitute oxypolygelatine (OPG) were studied in 12 healthy volunteers after single-dose administration of 27 ml x kg(-1) body weight, with a maximum of 2000 ml [2].
 

High impact information on ethanedial

  • The total initiating doses were 200 mumol for LG-I and DG, 25 mumol for LG-II and 500 mumol for FF, HMF, GL, MGL and TZ [3].
  • The effects of 4% plasma protein solution (group P), 6% dextran-70 (group D), and 5.5% oxypolygelatin (group G) on plasma volume and hemodynamics were compared with each other and with controls (group C) who received only maintenance infusion 20 h after coronary bypass surgery [4].
  • Benefits of blood cell transplant cryopreservation with oxypolygelatine (Gelifundol) plasma substitute [1].
  • A commercially available plasma expander (Gelifundol) containing 5.5% oxypolygelatine in buffered saline was used instead of serum as a supplement for freezing several types of human cell and a mouse myeloma cell line in liquid nitrogen [5].
  • It is suggested that the reaction potentialities of the oxaldehyde function of the inhibitors play an important role in their growth-inhibitory activity, besides exerting a specific effect on hexokinase (glucosone) and UTP-trapping activity [6].

Associations of ethanedial with other chemical compounds

  • In conjunction with promotion TZ induced skin tumors in 40% of the mice (average 0.65 tumors/mouse), FF in 25% (0.40/mouse), LG-I in 25% (0.35/mouse) and LG-II, HMF, DG and GL in 10-20% (0.11-0.25/mouse) respectively whereas DMBA induced skin tumors in 100% of the animals (6.7/mouse) [3].
