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 ...
Clinical pattern of ocular toxoplasmosis treated in a referral centre in Serbia
(Nature Publishing Group, London, 2012)
Purpose To analyze the clinical pattern of ocular toxoplasmosis (OT) in a referral centre in Serbia. Patients and methods The medical records of consecutive patients admitted for OT to the single referral centre for uveitis ...
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 ...
Transforming growth factor-β superfamily, implications in development and differentiation of stem cells
(De Gruyter, 2012)
Transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) family members, including TGF-βs and bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs), play important roles in directing the fate of stem cells. In embryonic stem cells, the TGF-β superfamily ...
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 ...
