Serum beta(2)-microglobulin as a marker of congenital toxoplasmosis and cytomegalovirus infection in preterm neonates
(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 ...
Dietary lipid intake influences the level of cholesterol bound to haemoglobin in human erythrocytes
(Springer Heidelberg, Heidelberg, 2008)
Background Blood cholesterol levels are affected by diet and in particular by the type of fat intake. We originally showed that a significant but variable amount of cholesterol is firmly bound to haemoglobin (Hb) yielding ...
Possible mechanism of acute effect of ethanol on intestinal IgA expression in rat
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2007)
The purpose of this study was to investigate the possible mechanism of acute effect of ethanol on IgA expression in rat intestine. To this end, adult female Wistar rats showing diestrus day I were treated with (a) ethanol ...
Wavelet transform analysis of time series generated by the stimulated neuronal activity
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2007)
We have studied the stimulated discharge dynamics of fusimotor neurons by applying the wavelet transform technique and by adopting that the neuronal discharge dynamics is manifested by the random time series of interspike ...
Challenges and achievements in capacity development in central and eastern Europe
(Karger, Basel, 2009)
Controlled-rate versus uncontrolled-rate freezing as predictors for platelet cryopreservation efficacy
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2006)
BACKGROUND: Cryobiologic variables responsible for cell injuries and freezing techniques applicable in medical cryopractice should be revised and/or reengineered for minimizing cryoinjuries and maximizing cell recovery. ...
Signaling pathways implicated in hematopoietic progenitor cell proliferation and differentiation
(Sage Publications Ltd, London, 2007)
The objective of this study was to investigate the signal transduction pathways associated with the clonal development of myeloid and erythroid progenitor cells. The contribution of particular signaling molecules of protein ...
A human origin type II strain of Toxoplasma gondii causing severe encephalitis in mice
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2006)
Despite its capacity for sexual reproduction and global distribution, Toxoplasma gondii has a highly clonal structure, with the majority of isolates belonging to three distinct clonal types. Congenital toxoplasmosis has ...
Hematopoietic changes and altered reactivity to IL-17 in Syphacia obvelata-infected mice
(Elsevier Ireland Ltd, Clare, 2006)
Pinworm parasites commonly infect laboratory mice with high prevalence even in well-managed animal colonies. Although often considered as irrelevant, these parasites if undetected may significantly interfere with the ...
Allozyme polymorphism of Mdh and alpha-Gpdh in Ixodes ricinus populations: comparison of borreliae-infected and uninfected ticks
(Springer, Dordrecht, 2006)
Ixodes ricinus Linnaeus (Acari: Ixodidae) ticks are vectors of numerous infectious diseases in humans and animals. The allozyme variability of MDH and alpha-Gpdh was detected by native polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis ...
