Effects of angiotensin II type-1 receptor blocker losartan on age-related cardiovascular risk in spontaneously hypertensive rats
(General Physiol And Biophysics, Bratislava, 2009)
Ageing and hypertension are the major risk factors for the development of cardiovascular and renal diseases, and the renin-angiotensin system has been shown responsible for these pathologies. Thus, the aim of this study ...
Overexpression of the Angiogenic Tetrapeptide AcSDKP in Human Malignant Tumors
(Int Inst Anticancer Research, Athens, 2008)
Background: The natural tetrapeptide acetyl-SerAsp-Lys-Pro (AcSDKP), generated from thymosin beta 4 following its cleavage by prolyl oligopeptidase (POP), is a physiological stimulator of angiogenesis. Because of the ...
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 ...
Electrophoretic and immunoelectrophoretic characteristics of IgG as a constituents of peg precipitable immune complexes in preruminant calves' sera / Elektroforetske i imunoelektroforetske karakteristike IgG kao konstituenata peg precipitabilnih imunokompleksa seruma kod teladi do četvrtog meseca starosti
