(Karger, Basel, 2008)
Background: Fetal serum beta(2)-microglobulin (beta M-2) has been reported as a reliable indicator of fetal infectious diseases. Objectives: To evaluate serum beta M-2 as a marker of congenital toxoplasmosis or cytomegalovirus ...
Comparative effects of aspirin and NO-releasing aspirins on differentiation, maturation and function of human monocyte-derived dendritic cells in vitro
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2009)
Acetylsalicilyc acid (aspirin, ASA) is a well known anti-inflammatory drug with immunomodulatory properties. NO-releasing aspirins (NO-ASA) are new compounds with anti-inflammatory properties. We studied the effects of ASA ...
Characterization of antigen-presenting cells in human apical periodontitis lesions by flow cytometry and immunocytochemistry
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2006)
Aim To analyse phenotypic characteristics of antigen-presenting cells (APC), isolated from human periapical lesions by flow cytometry and immunocytochemistry. Methodology Sixteen periapical lesions were digested for 15 min ...
The metabolic syndrome, an epidemic among HIV-infected patients on HAART
(Elsevier France-Editions Scientifiques Medicales Elsevier, Issy-Les-Moulineaux, 2009)
Background: HAART has dramatically changed the prognosis of AIDS, but has led to long-term toxicities of antiretroviral drugs. A major chronic complication is the metabolic syndrome (MS), including hyperlipidemia, lipodystrophy ...

(Czech Acad Sci, Inst Entomology, Ceske Budejovice, 2005)
A tobacco field in Greece was sampled during the 2001 and 2002 growing seasons to assess the seasonal trends in densities and spatial distributions of the aphid Myzus persicae (Sulzer) and its predatory mirid Macrolophus ...
The dissociation between virological and immunological responses to HAART
(Elsevier France-Editions Scientifiques Medicales Elsevier, Issy-Les-Moulineaux, 2005)

Beneficial randomness of signals in a neuronal circuit
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2002)
We have analyzed spontaneous discharge dynamics of fasimotor neurons, by applying the so-called detrended fluctuation analysis, which is a modification of the random walk model analysis. Besides, we applied the wavelet ...

(Brill Academic Publishers, Leiden, 2006)
Phylogenetic relationships among four genera and 25 species of the tribe Praini (Braconidae: Aphidimae) were investigated on the basis of 15 characters (13 morphological and two life history characters) using parsimony ...
