First Detection of Toxoplasma gondii (Nicolle & Manceaux, 1908) (Eucoccidiorida: Sarcocystidae) in River Waters in Serbia
(Inst Zoology, Bas, Sofia, 2020)
Toxoplasma gondii is one of the most successful parasites in the world. Its life form found in the environment, where it may stay viable for a year or more, is the oocyst, excreted by members of the family Felidae as the ...
Adverse plasma fatty acid composition in patients with femoral neck fracture
(Canadian Science Publishing, Ottawa, 2020)
Our study aimed to examine the status of plasma fatty acids (FAs), inflammatory markers, and lipid peroxidation in patients with femoral neck fractures. The study included 20 patients (64-86 years) with femoral neck fractures ...
Prospective analysis of gait characteristics in chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2020)
Chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyradiculoneuropathy (CIDP) is a disorder that may lead to functional impairment, including gait abnormalities. Our aim was to analyze gait characteristics in patients with CIDP compared ...
Hyperbaric oxygenation protects the kidney against ischemia-reperfusion injury
(Undersea & Hyperbaric Medical Soc Inc, Durham, 2020)
Background: Acute kidney injury (AKI) as a consequence of ischemia is a common clinical event that can lead to unacceptably high morbidity and mortality. Hyperbaric oxygen (HBO2) preconditioning has been shown to prevent ...
IL6 inhibition of inflammatory S100A8/9 proteins is NF-kappa B mediated in essential thrombocythemia
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2020)
This study has been performed to determine the mechanism of activation of the myeloid related S100A proteins by inflammatory cytokines in myeloproliferative neoplasm (MPN). Besides microarray analysis of MPN-derived CD34(+) ...
Paclitaxel inhibits transforming growth factor-beta-increased urokinase-type plasminogen activator expression through p38 MAPK and RAW 264.7 macrophage migration
(Balkan Union of Oncology (B.U.ON.), 2020)
Purpose: Transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) induces alternative macrophage activation that favors tumor progression and immunosuppression. Meanwhile, paclitaxel (PTx) induces macrophage (M phi) polarization towards ...
Spatiotemporal gait characteristics of Huntington's disease during dual-task walking
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, Abingdon, 2020)
Purpose: Huntington's disease (HD) is an neurodegenerative genetic disorder with characteristic gait changes. HD also results in a range of cognitive impairments, such as difficulties to divide attention, or simultaneously ...
FADS2 polymorphisms are associated with plasma arachidonic acid and estimated desaturase-5 activity in a cross-sectional study
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2020)
Polymorphisms in FADS genes are associated with plasma long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LC-PUFA) and modulate omega-6/omega-3 balance. We hypothesized that the FADS2 gene variants will be associated with lower ...
ELLSA based profiling of surface glycosylation in microorganisms reveals that ss-glucan rich yeasts' surfaces are selectively recognized with recombinant banana lectin
(Springer, Dordrecht, 2020)
The surface of microorganisms is covered with polysaccharide structures which are in immediate contact with receptor structures on host's cells and antibodies. The interaction between microorganisms and their host is ...
