Abstract

Occupational/accidental exposure data have showed hemorrhage as a result of transdermal exposure to warfarin, however, other effects are not known. In the present study, the impact of epicutaneous application of 10μg or 100μg of warfarin (three times, once a day) on peripheral blood polymorphonuclear (PMN) and mononuclear cells (PBMC) was examined in rats. Both doses resulted in prolongation of prothrombin time and changes in hematologic parameters. Increases in PMN intracellular myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity were seen at higher warfarin dose and both doses resulted in higher percentages of granular CD11b(+) cells. In contrast, a decrease in PMN TNF and IL-6 production (ELISA) and gene expression (RT-PCR) was observed. Epicutaneous application of warfarin resulted in decreased numbers of PBMC, higher numbers of mononuclear CD11b(+) cells, but without effect on PMBC cytokine production. The data obtained showed differential effects of transdermal exposure to warfarin depending on leukocyte type and activity.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 08 January 2016.
All research outputs
#22,759,452
of 25,374,647 outputs
Outputs from Environmental Toxicology & Pharmacology
#967
of 1,189 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#324,651
of 380,095 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Environmental Toxicology & Pharmacology
#20
of 31 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,374,647 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 1,189 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 6.3. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 380,095 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 31 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
