[Anti-inflammatory and regenerative effect of geroprotector based on the extract from biomass of Panax ginseng].

Anti-inflammatory and regenerative effect of bioantioxidant complex from biomass of Panax ginseng was investigated. Extract from biomass of Panax ginseng with antioxidant action can neutralize the negative effects of free radicals. Complex had a strong regenerating and anti-inflammatory action first of all in the exudative phase of inflammation.

[Use of synthetic steroids, inhibitors of microsomal enzymes, for retention of hexenal in the body and for prolongation of hexenal anesthesia under experimental conditions].

17alpha-hydroxydeoxycorticosterone and its acetate derivative inhibited the activity of rat liver microsomal enzymes. The inhibitory effect of steroids was not accompanied by induction of the enzyme synthesis, which was characteristic for the other known inhibitors of mixed function oxydases (SKF 525-A, DPEA, MPDK). These properties of the steroids suggested their use for prolongation of the effect of drugs, which are inactivated by microsomal enzymes.
