TLR4 and RAGE conversely mediate pro-inflammatory S100A8/9-mediated inhibition of proliferation-linked signaling in myeloproliferative neoplasms
(Springer, Dordrecht, 2018)
Purpose Previously, the family of S 100A proteins has been found to be associated with inflammation and myelopoiesis and to be able to induce or support myeloproliferation during chronic inflammation. Here, we studied the ...
The Effect of Vacuum-Assisted Closure Therapy on Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus Wound Biofilms
(Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, Philadelphia, 2018)
Biofilm-associated wound infections are a major global health issue, and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is among the greatest therapeutic challenges. Vacuum-assisted closure (VAC) therapy is now being ...
Regulation of Mesenchymal Stem Cell Differentiation by Transforming Growth Factor Beta Superfamily
(Bentham Science Publ Ltd, Sharjah, 2018)
The ability to differentiate into cells of different lineage, such as muscle, bone, cartilage and fat, is the chief value of adult mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) which can be used with the final aim to regenerate damaged ...
Self-preferred initial position could be a viable alternative to the standard squat jump testing procedure
(Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, Philadelphia, 2018)
The purpose of this study was to compare both the magnitude and reliability of different variables (knee angle, squat depth, jump height [Hmax], maximum force [Fmax], and maximum power [Pmax]) between the standardized squat ...
Transforming growth factor- (TGF-), matrix metalloproteinases, and urokinase-type plasminogen activator interaction in the cancer epithelial to mesenchymal transition
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2018)
Transforming growth factor- (TGF-) is a pleiotropic factor that acts as a tumor suppressor in the early stages, while it exerts tumor promoting activities in advanced stages of cancer development. One of the hallmarks of ...
Finger and foot tapping sensor system for objective motor assessment / Senzorski sistem za objektivnu motornu procenu na osnovu tapping-a prstima i stopalom
(Vojnomedicinska akademija - Institut za naučne informacije, Beograd, 2018)
Background/Aim. Finger tapping test is commonly used in neurological examinations as a test of motor performance. The new system comprising inertial and force sensors and custom proprietary software was developed for ...
N-acetyl-L-cysteine protects dental tissue stem cells against oxidative stress in vitro
(Springer Heidelberg, Heidelberg, 2018)
Objectives The aim of our study was to investigate whether N-acetyl-L-cysteine (NAC) could protect stem cells from exfoliated deciduous teeth (SHED) against oxidative damage, during in vitro cultivation, to preserve ...
Aronia (Aronia melanocarpa) Polyphenols Modulate the Microbial Community in a Simulator of the Human Intestinal Microbial Ecosystem (SHIME) and Decrease Secretion of Proinflammatory Markers in a Caco-2/endothelial Cell Coculture Model
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2018)
Scope Results To explore the mechanisms behind the health effects of Aronia (Aronia melanocarpa), the microbial community modulating and anti-inflammatory effects of Aronia polyphenols are investigated by combining the ...
Investigation of metabolic properties and effects of 17 beta-carboxamide glucocorticoids on human peripheral blood leukocytes
(Wiley-V C H Verlag Gmbh, Weinheim, 2018)
The biological activity of three previously synthesized 17 beta-carboxamide glucocorticoids (BG, BEG, and MPEA) was tested in vitro on mitogen stimulated and non-stimulated peripheral blood mononuclear cells (MNCs) and ...
Flow cytometry analysis of platelet populations: usefulness for monitoring the storage lesion in pooled buffy-coat platelet concentrates
(Simti Servizi Srl, Milan, 2018)
Background. Early detection of the platelet storage lesion is still a challenge in transfusion practice. Using flow cytometry, we evaluated the appearance of the storage lesion, based on the expression of platelet activation ...
