Calcium-Alginate-Inulin Microbeads as Carriers for Aqueous Carqueja Extract
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2016)
Carqueja (Pterospartum tridentatum) is an endemic species and various bioactive compounds have been identified in its aqueous extract. The aim of this study was to protect the natural antioxidants from the aqueous extract ...
Homogeneous static magnetic field of different orientation induces biological changes in subacutely exposed mice
(Springer Heidelberg, Heidelberg, 2016)
It has been shown that static magnetic field (SMF) of moderate intensity produces considerable impact on biological systems. SMF can be homogeneous or inhomogeneous. In many studies, inhomogeneous SMF was employed. Aware ...
Unfavourable plasma and erythrocyte phospholipid fatty acid profile in elite amateur boxers
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, Abingdon, 2013)
Research on possible physiological changes as a consequence of a specific lifestyle and long-term strenuous exercise in boxing has been sparse. We determined plasma and erythrocyte phospholipid (PL) fatty acids (FA) profile ...

Aim: To provide the first data on the prevalence and basic demographic risk factors for human Toxoplasma gondii infection in the Banja Luka region, Bosnia and Herzegovina (B&H). Methods: Analysis of serological and ...
Inflammatory Cytokines Prime Adipose Tissue Mesenchymal Stem Cells to Enhance Malignancy of MCF-7 Breast Cancer Cells via Transforming Growth Factor-beta 1
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2016)
Mesenchymal stem cells from human adipose tissue (hASCs) are proposed as suitable tools for soft tissue engineering and reconstruction. Although it is known that hASCs have the ability to home to sites of inflammation and ...
The inhibition of periodontal ligament stem cells osteogenic differentiation by IL-17 is mediated via MAPKs
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2016)
Periodontal disease (PD), a degenerative bacterially induced disease of periodontium, can lead to bone resorption and teeth loss. Development of PD includes a strong inflammatory reaction, which involves multiple immune ...
Doxycycline Inhibits IL-17-Stimulated MMP-9 Expression by Downregulating ERK1/2 Activation: Implications in Myogenic Differentiation
(Hindawi Ltd, London, 2016)
Interleukin 17 (IL-17) is a cytokine with pleiotropic effects associated with several inflammatory diseases. Although elevated levels of IL-17 have been described in inflammatory myopathies, its role in muscle remodeling ...
