Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are the most potent inhibitors of gastric acid secretion available, and they are effective for treating all acid-related disorders. Esomeprazole is one of several most recent PPIs that became available to the market in 2001. Esomeprazole is indicated for the treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease in adults and children, risk reduction of NSAIDs-associated gastric ulcer, Helicobacter pylori eradication and control of pathological hypersecretory conditions associated with Zollinger-Ellison syndrome. Esomeprazole is available in both oral and intravenous formulations. A number of studies have compared esomeprazole with other PPIs. While differences supporting esomeprazole have been reported, the magnitude of differences has been variable and of uncertain clinical importance. Cost plays a major role in prescribing patterns of PPIs.

Background: Proton pump inhibitors (PPI) for gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) are associated with a high failure rate. Our uncontrolled feasibility study aimed determining the effect of a transcutaneous electrical stimulation system (TESS) on GERD symptoms and acid exposure time (AET).
Methods: Recruited patients with heartburn and regurgitation.

Still today, peptic ulcer disease (PUD) is a major digestive illness that affects millions of people around the world every year. This study looks at both traditional and herbal ways of treating PUD, focusing on how they work, how well they work, and whether they can work together. Pharmaceuticals like antibiotics, proton pump inhibitors (PPIs), and H2-receptor antagonists are common ways to treat the condition.

Mitochondrial electron transport chain (ETC) function modulates macrophage biology; however, mechanisms underlying mitochondria ETC control of macrophage immune responses are not fully understood. Here, we report that mutant mice with mitochondria ETC complex III (CIII)-deficient macrophages exhibit increased susceptibility to influenza A virus (IAV) and LPS-induced endotoxic shock. Cultured bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDMs) isolated from these mitochondria CIII-deficient mice released less IL-10 than controls following TLR3 or TLR4 stimulation.

The cytokine interleukin-10 (IL-10) limits the immune response and promotes resolution of acute inflammation. Because of its immunosuppressive effects, IL-10 up-regulation is a common feature of tumor progression and metastasis. Recently, IL-10 regulation has been shown to depend on mitochondria and redox-sensitive signals.
