(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 ...
Fish oil supplementation improved liver phospholipids fatty acid composition and parameters of oxidative stress in male wistar rats
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2012)
In the present study, we examined the effects of fish oil supplementation in 3 months old male Wistar rats on changes in plasma and liver lipid metabolism and oxidative stress parameters. Twenty Wistar rats were randomly ...
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 ...
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 ...

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 ...
