Dibenzofuran is a heterocyclic organic compound with the chemical structure shown at right. It is an aromatic compound that has two benzene rings fused to a central furan ring. All the numbered carbon atoms have a hydrogen atom bonded to each of them. It is a volatile white solid that is soluble in nonpolar organic solvents.
Imiquimod is a patient-applied cream prescribed to treat genital warts, Bowens disease (squamous cell carcinoma in situ), and, secondary to surgery, for basal cell carcinoma, [7] [8] as well as actinic keratosis. [9] Imiquimod 5% cream is indicated for the topical treatment of: external genital and perianal warts (condylomata acuminata) in ...
2,3,7,8-Tetrachlorodibenzofuran (TCDF) is a polychlorinated dibenzofuran with a chemical formula of C 12 H 4 Cl 4 O. TCDF is part of the chlorinated benzofuran (CDF) family that contains between 1 and 8 chlorine atoms attached to the parent dibenzofuran ring system. The CDF family includes 135 compounds, of which only a few have been studied.
Of the diabetes drugs prescribed off-label for weight loss, metformin is one of the most well-researched. If you have obesity or are struggling to lose weight, talk to a healthcare provider about ...
Nitrofurazone is indicated for topical use in dogs, cats, and horses, for the treatment or prophylactic treatment of superficial bacterial infections, burns, and cutaneous ulcers. [9] Preparations for treating infections, such as fin rot, in ornamental fish are also still commercially available.
Dibenzofuran, an analog with a second fused benzene ring. Furan, an analog without the fused benzene ring. Indole, an analog with a nitrogen instead of the oxygen atom. Benzothiophene, an analog with a sulfur instead of the oxygen atom. Isobenzofuran, the isomer with oxygen in the adjacent position. Aurone; Thunberginol F
Diabetic foot ulcer is a breakdown of the skin and sometimes deeper tissues of the foot that leads to sore formation. It is thought to occur due to abnormal pressure or mechanical stress chronically applied to the foot, usually with concomitant predisposing conditions such as peripheral sensory neuropathy, peripheral motor neuropathy, autonomic neuropathy or peripheral arterial disease.

TCDD and dioxin-like compounds act via a specific receptor present in all cells: the aryl hydrocarbon (AH) receptor. [6] [7] [8] This receptor is a transcription factor which is involved in the expression of genes; it has been shown that high doses of TCDD either increase or decrease the expression of several hundred genes in rats.
