Relative roles of endothelin-1 and angiotensin II in experimental post-ischaemic acute renal failure
(Oxford Univ Press, Oxford, 2004)
Background. The relative roles of endothelin (ET)-1 and angiotensin (ANG) II in post-ischaemic acute renal failure (ARF) have not been fully established so far. With the aim of contributing to this goal, we assessed in ...
The combination of gamma ionizing radiation and 8-Cl-cAMP induces synergistic cell growth inhibition and induction of apoptosis in human prostate cancer cells
(Springer, Dordrecht, 2008)
The antiproliferative and cytotoxic potential of the nucleotide analog 8-Cl-cAMP was tested in PC-3 and DU145 metastatic human prostate cancer cells. The drug was examined as the only therapeutic agent and in combination ...
Non-substituted N-heteroaromatic selenosemicarbazone metal complexes induce apoptosis in cancer cells via activation of mitochondrial pathway
(Elsevier France-Editions Scientifiques Medicales Elsevier, Issy-Les-Moulineaux, 2011)
We previously published the synthesis, characterization and cytotoxic effect of the novel Zn(II), Ni(II), and Cd(II) complexes with 2-formylpyridine selenosemicarbazone. Here we further investigate the mechanism of their ...
Acaricidal Effect of Different Diatomaceous Earth Formulations Against Tyrophagus putrescentiae (Astigmata: Acaridae) on Stored Wheat
(Oxford Univ Press Inc, Cary, 2010)
Laboratory bioassays were conducted to evaluate the effect of different diatomaceous earth (DE) formulations against adults and immature stages of the stored-product mite species Tyrophagus putrescentiae (Schrank). Five ...
Transforming Growth Factor-Beta and Oxidative Stress Interplay: Implications in Tumorigenesis and Cancer Progression
(Hindawi Ltd, London, 2015)
Transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) and oxidative stress/ReactiveOxygen Species (ROS) both have pivotal roles in health and disease. In this review we are analyzing the interplay between TGF-beta and ROS in tumorigenesis ...
Angiogenic factors are increased in circulating granulocytes and CD34(+) cells of myeloproliferative neoplasms
(Wiley-Blackwell, Hoboken, 2017)
It has been shown that angiogenesis and inflammation play an important role in development of most hematological malignancies including the myeloproliferative neoplasm (MPN). The aim of this study was to investigate and ...
Stage conversion of Toxoplasma gondii RH parasites in mice by treatment with atovaquone and pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2005)
The mouse-virulent RH strain of Toxoplasma gondii is generally considered to have lost its cyst-forming capacity, and conversion of RH tachyzoites into cysts in non-immune mice has previously been shown exclusively following ...
Pain and executive functions: a unique relationship between Stroop task and experimentally induced pain
(Springer Heidelberg, Heidelberg, 2018)
There is a growing body of evidence that a higher level of cognitive inhibition is associated with lower experimental pain sensitivity. However, a systematic examination of the association between executive functions, which ...
Transforming growth factor- (TGF-), matrix metalloproteinases, and urokinase-type plasminogen activator interaction in the cancer epithelial to mesenchymal transition
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2018)
Transforming growth factor- (TGF-) is a pleiotropic factor that acts as a tumor suppressor in the early stages, while it exerts tumor promoting activities in advanced stages of cancer development. One of the hallmarks of ...
Characterization of dried chokeberry fruit extract and its chronic effects on blood pressure and oxidative stress in spontaneously hypertensive rats
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2018)
The potential beneficial effects of chronic consumption of dried chokeberry fruit extract (DCE) were evaluated in the present in vivo study. The study concentrates on haemodynamic parameters, lipid profile and oxidative ...
