Ghrelin receptors in human gastrointestinal tract during prenatal and early postnatal development
(Elsevier Science Inc, New York, 2014)
The aim of our study was to investigate the appearance, density and distribution of ghrelin cells and GHS-R1a and GHS-R1b in the human stomach and duodenum during prenatal and early postnatal development. We examined ...
Dietary Supplementation with Polyphenol-Rich Chokeberry Juice Improves Skin Morphology in Cellulite
(Mary Ann Liebert, Inc, New Rochelle, 2014)
The aim of our study was to investigate possible beneficial effects of organic chokeberry juice (OCJ) consumption in the treatment of cellulite. Twenty-nine women aged 25-48 with a cellulite grade 2 according to the ...
Novel Selenosemicarbazone Metal Complexes Exert Anti-tumor Effect via Alternative, Caspase-independent Necroptotic Cell Death
(Bentham Science Publ Ltd, Sharjah, 2014)
The synthesis and chemical characterization of the novel 2,6-diacetylpyridine-bis(selenosemicarbazone) metal complexes of Zn(II), Cd(II) and Ni(II) were published previously. Here we report first evidence on anti-proliferative ...
A Systematic Review on Micronutrient Intake Adequacy in Adult Minority Populations Residing in Europe: The Need for Action
(Springer, New York, 2014)
This systematic review evaluated micronutrient intake inadequacy of ten micronutrients for adult ethnic minority populations residing in Europe. Pubmed was searched for studies, related references were checked and experts ...
Erythrocyte membranes from slaughterhouse blood as potential drug vehicles: Isolation by gradual hypotonic hemolysis and biochemical and morphological characterization
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2014)
The present study was aimed at investigating the effect of isolation process-gradual hypotonic hemolysis on chosen parameters of the erythrocyte membranes (ghosts) originating from bovine and porcine slaughterhouse blood. ...
Palmitic acid as a cardiometabolic risk factor
(Palmitic Acid: Occurrence, Biochemistry & Health Effects, 2014)
Current dietary recommendations are based on a reduced saturated fatty acid (SFA) consumption to prevent cardiovascular disease (CVD). The role of individual SFA in metabolic disease is not fully understandable. One type ...
Effects of polyphenol-rich chokeberry juice on cellular antioxidant enzymes and membrane lipid status in healthy women
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2014)
The effect of long-term polyphenol-rich chokeberry juice consumption on activities of antioxidant enzymes and membrane lipid status in erythrocytes of 25 healthy women was examined. Percentages of membrane fatty acids, ...
Multiple regression analysis of repetitive finger tapping parameters
(IEEE, New York, 2014)
In this paper, we present methodology for investigating relations among kinematic parameters of finger tapping, typically used for motor assessment of upper limb by implementing multiple linear regression analysis. Duration, ...
Implementation of continuous wavelet transformation in repetitive finger tapping analysis for patients with PD
(IEEE, New York, 2014)
In this paper we propose a methodology for objective evaluation and classification of repetitive finger tapping performance based solely on its spectral behavior. We used miniature sensor system with gyroscope placed over ...
