Fever is a highly complex response in mammalian host defense systems that results in a temporary rise of basal temperature and seems to be mediated by action of endogenous pyrogens including interleukin (IL)-1± and -1beta, IL-6, tumor necrosis factor-± (TNF-±), IL-8, C-C-ligands/macrophage inflammatory protein-1± and beta (CCL3 /MIP-1± and CCL4/MIP-1beta) and pre-formed pyrogenic factor (…
The prodrug dipyrone is an important antipyretic drug. After its administration, dipyrone is rapidly converted by hydrolysis in 4- methylaminoantipyrine (4-MAA), which is then metabolized to 4- formylaminoantipyrine 4-(4-FAA), 4- aminoantipyrine ( 4-AA) and 4- acetylaminoantipyrine (4-AAA). However, the metabolites of dipyrone with antipyretic activity, as well as the mechanism of action …
