Resveratrol loaded liposomes produced by different techniques
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2013)
Several different methods for production of liposomes incorporating resveratrol were investigated and compared from the aspect of size distribution, surface charge, entrapment efficiency, phase behavior and stability. Thin ...
Evidence for host genetic regulation of altered lipid metabolism in experimental toxoplasmosis supported with gene data mining results
(Public Library Science, San Francisco, 2017)
Toxoplasma gondii is one of the most successful parasites on Earth, infecting a wide array of mammals including one third of the global human population. The obligate intracellular protozoon is not capable of synthesizing ...
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 ...
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 ...
TLR4 and RAGE conversely mediate pro-inflammatory S100A8/9-mediated inhibition of proliferation-linked signaling in myeloproliferative neoplasms
(Springer, Dordrecht, 2018)
Purpose Previously, the family of S 100A proteins has been found to be associated with inflammation and myelopoiesis and to be able to induce or support myeloproliferation during chronic inflammation. Here, we studied the ...
