Prunes activity

Food containing salicylate (curry powder, paprika, licorice, prunes, raisins, and tea) may increase the risk of adverse reactions. Coadministration of the salicylates with activated charcoal decreases the absorption of the salicylates. Antacids may decrease the effects of the salicylates. Coadministration with the carbonic anhydrase inhibitors increases the risk of salicylism. Aspirin may increase the risk of bleeding during... 

Applications should be made when the activity of field workers will result in maximum exposure (i.e., pruning, girdling, harvesting, etc.)... 

Table 2 represents a summary of the design of the chlorpyrifos re-entry studies. Five sites (three in California, one in Arizona, and one in Florida) were selected. The California orange harvesting and lemon tree pruning represented high crop re-entry activities, while the Florida tomato and...

Critical periods may vary depending on the area of the brain and the activity involved. Despite the evidence that patterns of neural activity influence the organization of neuronal circuitry, the mechanisms involved remain elusive. Neuronal activity drives the selective survival and sprouting of branches, accompanied by the local addition of synapses, within appropriate areas furthermore, the lack of activity promotes the pruning of synaptic connections from inactive areas (Katz and Shatz, 1996). These competitive processes increase the refinement and precision of maps and require the activity of excitatory receptors (Constantine-Paton et ah, 1990 Antonini and Stryker, 1993) and locally released growth factors (Thoenen, 1995 Inoue and Sanes, 1997).

Pygeum africanum, an extract from the bark of the African prune tree, has been used in Europe since 1969 to treat men with mild to moderate symptoms of benign prostatic hyperplasia. The mechanism of action of P. africanum is not known. In animal models, P. africanum modulates bladder contractility, has anti-inflammatory activity, decreases production of leukotrienes and other 5-lipoxygenase metabolites, inhibits fibroblast production, affects adrenal androgens, and restores the secretory activity of prostate epithelium. 

Objective Find common feature configurations amongst a set of active molecules. Algorithm HipHop uses a pruned exhaustive search method. Starting with simple two-feature pharmacophores, the program tries to add one extra common feature at a time until no larger common pharmacophore configuration exists [10]. Combinations that cannot be completed to reach a minimum number of features are not further explored. 

The term plasticity has been used to emphasize the brain s responsiveness and ability to adapt to changing environmental input. The brain creates new brain cell synapses and prunes old ones in response to experience (Greenough et al., 1992 Weiler et al., 1995). Caged animals with limited opportunities for spontaneous activity will not develop as many neuronal interconnections as more free-ranging animals. It is doubtful that the brains of children would be any less responsive to the environment than those of rats. If environmental influences, such as the frequency and quality of communication, can influence brain development, chronic drug exposure should be viewed as potentially dangerous. In addition, the stimulants make children less spontaneous, reducing their interactions with the environment and hence their brain development.
