Coexistence of emerging bacterial pathogens in ixodes ricinus ticks in Serbia
(EDP Sciences S A, Les Ulis Cedex A, 2010)
The list of tick-borne pathogens is long, varied and includes viruses, bacteria, protozoa and nematodes. As all of these agents can exist in ticks, their co-infections hove been previously reported. We studied co-infections ...
Rearrangement of erythrocyte band 3 molecules and reversible formation of osmotic holes under hypotonic conditions
(Springer, New York, 2010)
The complex phenomenon of rearrangement of band 3 molecules after erythrocyte swelling under hypotonic condition is considered. The rearrangement includes the increase of the mobile fraction and clustering of band 3. The ...
Risk factors for toxoplasma infection in pregnant women in FYR of Macedonia
(EDP Sciences S A, Les Ulis Cedex A, 2010)
The aim of the study was to identify risk factors for Toxoplasma gondii infection in pregnant women in FYR of Macedonia. Retrospective analysis of serological and epidemiological data in a series of 235 pregnant women from ...
Rac1 modulates TGF-beta 1-mediated epithelial cell plasticity and MMP9 production in transformed keratinocytes
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2010)
Transforming growth factor-beta 1 (TGF-beta 1) activates Rac1 GTPase in mouse transformed keratinocytes. Expression of a constitutively active Q61LRac1 mutant induced an epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT) linked ...
EURRECA: development of tools to improve the alignment of micronutrient recommendations
(Nature Publishing Group, London, 2010)
Approaches through which reference values for micronutrients are derived, as well as the reference values themselves, vary considerably across countries. Harmonisation is needed to improve nutrition policy and public health ...
The prognosis of patients with dissociated virological and immunological responses to HAART
(Elsevier France-Editions Scientifiques Medicales Elsevier, Issy-Les-Moulineaux, 2010)
Background. - While HAART allows for the reconstitution of immune functions in most treated HIV patients, failure to achieve a significant increase in circulating CD4+ T cells despite undetectable viremia occurs. Methods. ...
Prioritizing micronutrients for the purpose of reviewing their requirements: a protocol developed by EURRECA
(Nature Publishing Group, London, 2010)
Background: The EURRECA (EURopean micronutrient RECommendations Aligned) Network of Excellence (http://www.eurreca.org) is working towards the development of aligned recommendations. A protocol was required to assign ...
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 ...
Low-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation and off-phase motor symptoms in Parkinson's disease
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2010)
Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) can modulate cortical excitability and activation and consequently may affect clinical symptoms in neurological conditions characterized by altered motor cortex functions. ...
