Effect of soybean Leci-Vita product on serum lipids and fatty acid composition in patients with elevated serum cholesterol and triglyceride levels
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2003)
The study was designed to examine the effects of soybean Leci-Vita, product rich in polyunsaturated phospholipids (with 7% lecithin, 17% soy protein) on serum lipids and serum and erythrocyte phospholipid fatty acid ...
Effect of rapamycin on the induction and course of active Heyman nephritis
(Wiley-Blackwell, Hoboken, 2005)
Glycosylation of IgG B cell receptor (IgG BCR) in multiple myeloma: relationship between sialylation and the signal activity of IgG BCR
(Springer, Dordrecht, 2008)
Little is known about the glycosylation of the isotype switched B cell receptor (BCR) in multiple myeloma, and the way it might affect receptor function. In this work IgG BCRs isolated from the individual lysates of ...
Evidence for an association of high levels of endogenous Acetyl-Ser-Asp-Lys-Pro, a potent mediator of angiogenesis, with acute myeloid leukemia development
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, Abingdon, 2006)
Evidence from clinical and laboratory studies suggests that angiogenesis is important in the progression of solid tumours and hematologic malignancies. We have shown that the naturally occurring tetrapeptide Acetyl-Ser-Asp-Lys-Pro ...
Herpes zoster as an immune restoration disease in AIDS patients during therapy including protease inhibitors
(Sage Publications Ltd, London, 2005)
A prospective study to evaluate the incidence of herpes zoster (HZ) as an immune restoration disease in patients with AIDS during highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) was conducted in a series of 115 patients ...
Effects of long-term losartan and L-arginine treatment on haemodynamics, glomerular filtration, and SOD activity in spontaneously hypertensive rats
(Canadian Science Publishing, Ottawa, 2008)
Recently, it has been reported that losartan, an angiotensin II receptor (ATR) antagonist, depresses the angiotensin II-induced production of superoxide radicals. Also, in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) endothelial ...
Examination of rheological properties of fine particles as carriers for controlled drug release
(Taylor & Francis Inc, Philadelphia, 2003)
Development of lipid-based fine particles as potential drug carriers requires detailed investigation of possible effects of these carriers on rheological properties of blood. In this study, we have investigated the influence ...
Aphids and parasitolds on willows and poplars in southeastern Europe (Hornoptera : Aphidoidea; Hymenoptera : Braconidae, Aphidiinae)
(Springer Heidelberg, Heidelberg, 2006)
Aphid and aphid parasitoid associations on willows (Salix spp.) and poplars (Populus spp.) in southeastern Europe are reviewed. In total 13 aphid parasitoid species were reared from aphids on these plants. The specific ...
Comparative effects of L-arginine and vitamin C pretreatment in SHR with induced postischemic acute renal failure
(General Physiol And Biophysics, Bratislava, 2009)
Postischemic acute renal failure is worsened when occurs in a various conditions with impaired nitric oxide (NO) synthesis, such as arterial hypertension. Reoxygenation itself increases ischemic injury through the massive ...
Cell support studies aimed for cartilage tissue engineering in perfused bioreactors
(Trans Tech Publications Ltd, Durnten-Zurich, 2004)
Cartilage tissue engineering based on chondrogenic cells seeded onto biodegradable polymer supports and cultivated in bioreactors can potentially become an effective method for creating functional tissue equivalents. ...
