Mesenchymal Stem Cells and Calcium Phosphate Bioceramics: Implications in Periodontal Bone Regeneration
(Springer International Publishing Ag, Cham, 2018)
In orthopedic medicine, a feasible reconstruction of bone structures remains one of the main challenges both for healthcare and for improvement of patients' quality of life. There is a growing interest in mesenchymal stem ...
L-arginine reduces tubular cell injury in acute post-ischaemic renal failure
(Oxford Univ Press, Oxford, 1999)
Background. The pathophysiology of renal ischaemia, resulting in tubular cell injury and leading to acute renal failure (ARF), remains unclear. An ever-increasing number of investigations focus on a possible role of nitric ...
Influence of carvedilol on chronic renal failure progression in spontaneously hypertensive rats with adriamycin nephropathy
(Dustri-Verlag Dr Karl Feistle, Deisenhofen-Muenchen, 2005)
Background: In this study, the effects of carvedilol, antihypertensive (alpha-beta blocker) agent with antiproliferative and antioxidative properties, on slowing down of chronic renal failure (CRF) progression in spontaneously ...
The potential of interleukin-17 to mediate hematopoietic response
(Humana Press Inc, Totowa, 2012)
It has long been known that T cells have the potential to modulate hematopoietic response in different ways. More recently, the importance of interleukin (IL)-17-secreting Th17 cells in T-cell-mediated regulation of ...
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 ...
The trigeminal vasculature pathology in patients with neuralgia
(Blackwell Publishing, Oxford, 2007)
Objective.-To examine the possible pathological changes of the trigeminal vasculature in patients with neuralgia. Background.-Such a study has never been performed before. The alterations of the trigeminal vessels could ...
Fatty acid flux and oxidation are increased by rimonabant in obese women
(W B Saunders Co-Elsevier Inc, Philadelphia, 2012)
This study aimed to determine in obese women if endocannabinoid receptor antagonism has effects on fatty acid and triglyceride metabolism and insulin sensitivity which are independent from the metabolic effects of weight ...
Effect of carvedilol on pulse pressure and left ventricular hypertrophy in spontaneously hypertensive rats with adriamycin nephropathy
(Elsevier France-Editions Scientifiques Medicales Elsevier, Issy-Les-Moulineaux, 2009)
Recent studies indicated pulse pressure as a risk factor for left ventricular hypertrophy, myocardial infarction, congestive heart failure and stroke as well as chronic renal failure progression. The present study examined ...
The dissociation between virological and immunological responses to HAART
(Elsevier France-Editions Scientifiques Medicales Elsevier, Issy-Les-Moulineaux, 2005)
While HAART allows for the reconstitution- of immune functions in most treated HIV patients, discrepant responses including failure to achieve a significant increase in circulating CD4+ T cells despite undetectable plasma ...
Effects of gamma-radiation on cell growth, cycle arrest, death, and superoxide dismutase expression by DU145 human prostate cancer cells
(Assoc Bras Divulg Cientifica, Ribeirao Preto, 2006)
Gamma-irradiation (gamma-IR) is extensively used in the treatment of hormone-resistant prostate carcinoma. The objective of the present study was to investigate the effects of Co-60 gamma-IR on the growth, cell cycle arrest ...
