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 ...
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 ...
Phylogenetic relationships among Praini (Hymenoptera : Braconidae : Aphidiinae) aphid parasitoids, with redescription of two species
(Brill Academic Publishers, Leiden, 2006)
Phylogenetic relationships among four genera and 25 species of the tribe Praini (Braconidae: Aphidimae) were investigated on the basis of 15 characters (13 morphological and two life history characters) using parsimony ...
Insulin-like growth factor-I in wound healing of rat skin
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2008)
Growth factors play an important role in orchestrating and enabling the cellular responses required for successful wound healing. In the present study, rat surgical incision was used to investigate insulin-like growth ...
Comparative effects of aspirin and NO-releasing aspirins on differentiation, maturation and function of human monocyte-derived dendritic cells in vitro
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2009)
Acetylsalicilyc acid (aspirin, ASA) is a well known anti-inflammatory drug with immunomodulatory properties. NO-releasing aspirins (NO-ASA) are new compounds with anti-inflammatory properties. We studied the effects of ASA ...
Dietary lipid intake influences the level of cholesterol bound to haemoglobin in human erythrocytes
(Springer Heidelberg, Heidelberg, 2008)
Background Blood cholesterol levels are affected by diet and in particular by the type of fat intake. We originally showed that a significant but variable amount of cholesterol is firmly bound to haemoglobin (Hb) yielding ...
Controlled-rate versus uncontrolled-rate freezing as predictors for platelet cryopreservation efficacy
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2006)
BACKGROUND: Cryobiologic variables responsible for cell injuries and freezing techniques applicable in medical cryopractice should be revised and/or reengineered for minimizing cryoinjuries and maximizing cell recovery. ...
Signaling pathways implicated in hematopoietic progenitor cell proliferation and differentiation
(Sage Publications Ltd, London, 2007)
The objective of this study was to investigate the signal transduction pathways associated with the clonal development of myeloid and erythroid progenitor cells. The contribution of particular signaling molecules of protein ...
Effects of treatment with interleukin-1 receptor antagonist on endogenous interleukin-1 levels in normal and irradiated mice
(Acad Sciences Czech Republic, Inst Physiology, Prague 4, 2000)
The in vivo effects of recombinant human interleukin-1 receptor antagonist (rhIL-1Ra) administration on endogenous IL-1 levels in the circulation and conditioned media (CM) from different immunohematopoietic organ/tissues ...
A human origin type II strain of Toxoplasma gondii causing severe encephalitis in mice
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2006)
Despite its capacity for sexual reproduction and global distribution, Toxoplasma gondii has a highly clonal structure, with the majority of isolates belonging to three distinct clonal types. Congenital toxoplasmosis has ...
