Effects of anthocyanins and their gut metabolites on adenosine diphosphate-induced platelet activation and their aggregation with monocytes and neutrophils
(Elsevier Science Inc, New York, 2018)
Accumulating evidence suggests that anthocyanins play an important role in the cardioprotective effects associated with consumption of anthocyanin-rich foods. These benefits may partly be attributed to their effects on ...
Disturbances of platelets aggregation in patients with multiple myeloma
(Ferrata Storti Foundation, Pavia, 2010)
Approaches to mimic the complexity of the skeletal mesenchymal stem/stromal cell niche in vitro
(Ao Research Institute Davos-Ari, Davos, 2019)
Mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs) are an essential element of most modem tissue engineering and regenerative medicine approaches due to their multipotency and immunoregulatory functions. Despite the prospective value ...
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 ...
Globin gene expression in correlation with G protein-related genes during erythroid differentiation
(Biomed Central Ltd, London, 2013)
Background: The guanine nucleotide binding protein (G protein)-coupled receptors (GPCRs) regulate cell growth, proliferation and differentiation. G proteins are also implicated in erythroid differentiation, and some of ...
Quantitative Proteome Heterogeneity in Myeloproliferative Neoplasm Subtypes and Association with JAK2 Mutation Status
(Amer Assoc Cancer Research, Philadelphia, 2017)
Apart from well-known genetic abnormalities, several studies have reported variations in protein expression in Philadelphianegative myeloproliferative neoplasm (MPN) patients that could contribute toward their clinical ...
Losartan Improved Antioxidant Defense, Renal Function and Structure of Postischemic Hypertensive Kidney
(Public Library Science, San Francisco, 2014)
Ischemic acute renal failure (ARF) is a highly complex disorder involving renal vasoconstriction, filtration failure, tubular obstruction, tubular backleak and generation of reactive oxygen species. Due to this complexity, ...
Neuronal Nitric Oxide Synthase Mediates the Effect of Ethanol on IgA
(Oxford Univ Press, Oxford, 2013)
Aims: We showed previously that the acute effect of ethanol on intestinal immunoglobulin A (IgA) expression might be mediated by endogenous nitric oxide (NO). To extend these findings, this study was designed to investigate ...
Age-Related Differential Stimulation of Immune Response by Babesia microti and Borrelia burgdorferi During Acute Phase of Infection Affects Disease Severity
(Frontiers in Immunology, 2018)
Lyme disease is the most prominent tick-borne disease with 300,000 cases estimated by CDC every year while ~2,000 cases of babesiosis occur per year in the United States. Simultaneous infection with Babesia microti and ...
Protozoan parasite babesia microti subverts adaptive immunity and enhances lyme disease severity
(Frontiers in Microbiology, 2019)
Lyme disease is the most prominent tick-borne disease in the United States. Co-infections with the tick-transmitted pathogens Babesia microti and Borrelia burgdorferi sensu stricto are becoming a serious health problem. ...
