Encapsulation of natural antioxidant resveratrol in liposomes
(CEFood 2012 - Proceedings of 6th Central European Congress on Food, 2012)
Liposomes have been shown to be suitable systems for encapsulation and preserving the health-beneficial properties of a wide range of biological active ingredients such as resveratrol (RSV). The aim of this study was to ...
Lower Serum Paraoxonase-1 Activity Is Related to Linoleic and Docosahexanoic Fatty Acids in Type 2 Diabetic Patients
(Elsevier Science Inc, New York, 2012)
Background. Serum paraoxonase-1(PON-1) activity is decreased in clinical conditions associated with low high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), increased lipid peroxidation and low-grade chronic inflammation, as in ...
Isolation of Hemoglobin from Bovine Erythrocytes by Controlled Hemolysis in the Membrane Bioreactor
(Springer, New York, 2012)
In this work, we describe an optimized procedure based on gradual hemolysis for the isolation of hemoglobin derived from bovine slaughterhouse erythrocytes in a membrane bioreactor. The membrane bioreactor system that ...
Anti-metastatic and Anti-angiogenic Properties of Potential New Anti-cancer Drugs Based on Metal Complexes of Selenosemicarbazones
(Bentham Science Publ Ltd, Sharjah, 2012)
Our previous studies showed that zinc (II), cadmium (II) and nickel (II) complexes with 2-formylpyridine selenose-micarbazone induce apoptosis in cancer cells via activation of mitochondrial pathway. Herein, we reported ...

(Narodni Muzeum - Prirodovedecke Muzeum, Praha, 2012)
This study presents the results of a survey of aphid parasitoids of the subfamily Aphidiinae (Hymenoptera: Braconidae) in western Iran. Thirty nine species of aphid parasitoids belonging to nine genera were collected and ...
SKIP Downregulation Increases TGF-β1-Induced Matrix Metalloproteinase-9 Production in Transformed Keratinocytes
(Scientifica, 2012)
Transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β1) is a potent inductor of matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) in transformed cells. Recently, Ski-interacting protein (SKIP) has been described as a regulator of TGF-β1 signal transduction, ...
TGF-β and MMPs: A complex regulatory loop involved in tumor progression
(Matrix Metalloproteinases: Biology, Functions & Clinical Implications, 2012)
Transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) has a dual and contradictory role in cancer. It is a tumor suppressor at early stages of tumor formation by virtue of its growth inhibitory and pro-apoptotic functions. However, at later ...
Eicosapentaenoic acid: The role in malignant diseases
(Eicosapentaenoic Acid: Sources, Health Effects & Role in Disease Prevention, 2012)
A number of epidemiological and experimental evidences have linked polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) of n-3 series to reduced cancer risk. Particularly the long chain n-3 PUFA eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic ...
Endocrine cells in human fetal corpus of stomach: appearance, distribution, and density
(Springer Japan Kk, Tokyo, 2012)
While ghrelin cells were the most numerous during the se Since reports on endocrine cells and their kinetics in the corpus of the human stomach are limited, the aim of this study was to examine the appearance, localization, ...
