Combined effect of IL-17 and blockade of nitric oxide biosynthesis on haematopoiesis in mice
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2010)
Aim: The study was undertaken to extend our investigation concerning both the in vivo activity of interleukin (IL)-17 and the specific role of nitric oxide (NO) in IL-17-induced effects in the process of haematopoiesis. ...
Seasonal Variations in Human Toxoplasma Infection in Serbia
(Mary Ann Liebert, Inc, New Rochelle, 2010)
Background: Seasonal variations in the occurrence of toxoplasmosis have been studied only sporadically. We thus examined the seasonal distribution of acute toxoplasmosis in Serbia during a 4-year period (2004-2008). Materials ...
European micronutrient recommendations aligned: a general framework developed by EURRECA
(Nature Publishing Group, London, 2010)
Background: In Europe, micronutrient recommendations have been established by (inter)national committees of experts and are used by public health-policy decision makers to monitor and assess the adequacy of the diets of ...
Slow (1 Hz) repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) induces a sustained change in cortical excitability in patients with Parkinson's disease
(Elsevier Ireland Ltd, Clare, 2010)
Objective: Low-frequency ( lt = 1 Hz) rTMS (LF-rTMS) can reduce excitability in the underlying cortex and/or promote inhibition. In patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) several TMS elicited features of motor corticospinal ...
A simple method to assess freezing of gait in Parkinson's disease patients
(Assoc Bras Divulg Cientifica, Sao Paulo, 2010)
Freezing of gait (FOG) can be assessed by clinical and instrumental methods. Clinical examination has the advantage of being available to most clinicians; however, it requires experience and may not reveal FOG even for ...
Detection of Borrelia-specific 16S rRNA sequence in total RNA extracted from Ixodes ricinus ticks
(Arquivo Brasileiro Medicina Veterinaria Zootecnia, Minas Gerais, 2010)
A reverse transcriptase - polymerase chain reaction based assay for Borrelia species detection in ticks was developed. The method was based on amplification of 552 nucleotide bases long sequence of 16S rRNA, targeted by ...
ROS-NF kappa I' mediates TGF-beta 1-induced expression of urokinase-type plasminogen activator, matrix metalloproteinase-9 and cell invasion
(Springer, Dordrecht, 2010)
TGF-beta 1 has been postulated as a pro-oncogenic factor in the late step of the tumoral progression. In transformed cells, TGF-beta 1 enhances the capacity to degrade the extracellular matrix, cell invasiveness and ...
New ruthenium(II) complexes with N-alkylphenothiazines: Synthesis, structure, in vivo activity as free radical scavengers and in vitro cytotoxicity
(Elsevier France-Editions Scientifiques Medicales Elsevier, Issy-Les-Moulineaux, 2010)
Three new complexes of the general formula L[RuCl3(DMSO)(3)] (1-3), where L = chlorpromazine hydrochloride, trifluoroperazine dihydrochloride or thioridazine hydrochloride, were prepared and characterized by elemental ...
SKIP is required for TGF-beta 1-induced epithelial mesenchymal transition and migration in transformed keratinocytes
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2010)
Transforming growth factor-beta 1 (TGF-beta 1) potently induces the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) during tumoral progression. Although Sky-interacting protein (SKIP) regulates TGF-beta 1-induced Smad activation, ...
Toxoplasmosis in Serbia: time for an action plan
(EDP Sciences S A, Les Ulis Cedex A, 2010)
Known for a century, Toxoplasma gondii has been studied in Serbia half this time, ever since the introduction of the Sabin-Feldman test at the Institute for Medical Research (IMR) in 1959. However, despite 50 years of ...
