Coloprotective role of vardenafil against the development of ulcerative colitis in rats through inhibition of NLRP3 signaling pathway
Aims:Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a chronic relapsing inflammatory bowel disorder that known to increase the risk of colon cancer. Erectile dysfunction(ED) is common in patients with UC. Vardenafil, which is a drug commonly prescribed for treatment of ED, has been shown to have antioxidant effects; ne...

Zusammenfassung: | Aims:Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a chronic relapsing inflammatory bowel disorder that known to increase the risk of colon cancer. Erectile dysfunction(ED) is common in patients with UC. Vardenafil, which is a drug commonly prescribed for treatment of ED, has been shown to have antioxidant effects; nevertheless, its significance in UC has not been determined. Thus, this current study was designed to investigate the potential prophylactic effects of vardenafil against acetic acid-induced UC and to identify possible underlying mechanisms |
