Hydroxyurea increases eNOS protein levels through inhibition of proteasome activity
(Academic Press Inc Elsevier Science, San Diego, 2007)
Recent reports have identified the proteasome as the primary degradation pathway for inducible, neuronal and endothelial nitric oxide synthase (NOS). We have demonstrated that hydroxyurea increased nitric oxide (NO) ...
Effects of gamma-radiation on cell growth, cycle arrest, death, and superoxide dismutase expression by DU145 human prostate cancer cells
(Assoc Bras Divulg Cientifica, Ribeirao Preto, 2006)
Gamma-irradiation (gamma-IR) is extensively used in the treatment of hormone-resistant prostate carcinoma. The objective of the present study was to investigate the effects of Co-60 gamma-IR on the growth, cell cycle arrest ...
Comparative effects of aspirin and NO-releasing aspirins on differentiation, maturation and function of human monocyte-derived dendritic cells in vitro
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2009)
Acetylsalicilyc acid (aspirin, ASA) is a well known anti-inflammatory drug with immunomodulatory properties. NO-releasing aspirins (NO-ASA) are new compounds with anti-inflammatory properties. We studied the effects of ASA ...
Serum beta(2)-microglobulin as a marker of congenital toxoplasmosis and cytomegalovirus infection in preterm neonates
(Karger, Basel, 2008)
Background: Fetal serum beta(2)-microglobulin (beta M-2) has been reported as a reliable indicator of fetal infectious diseases. Objectives: To evaluate serum beta M-2 as a marker of congenital toxoplasmosis or cytomegalovirus ...
Changes in movement variables associated with transient overshoot of the final position
(Routledge Journals, Taylor & Francis Ltd, Abingdon, 2000)
Transient overshoot (TO), which is assessed as the distance between the movement amplitude and the final position, was measured in a series of rapid, discrete elbow flexion movements performed under different distance and ...
Persistence and efficacy of three diatomaceous earth formulations against Sitophilus oryzae (Coleoptera : Curculionidae) on wheat and barley
(Oxford Univ Press Inc, Cary, 2005)
The insecticidal and residual efficacy of three diatomaceous earth (DE) formulations, Insecto, PyriSec, and SilicoSec, against Sitophilus oryzae (L.) on barley and wheat was assessed. For this purpose, 4-kg lots of barley ...
Blockade of nitric oxide formation modulates intestinal IgA
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2008)
Effect of carvedilol on pulse pressure and left ventricular hypertrophy in spontaneously hypertensive rats with adriamycin nephropathy
(Elsevier France-Editions Scientifiques Medicales Elsevier, Issy-Les-Moulineaux, 2009)
Recent studies indicated pulse pressure as a risk factor for left ventricular hypertrophy, myocardial infarction, congestive heart failure and stroke as well as chronic renal failure progression. The present study examined ...
Effectiveness of spiramycin in murine models of acute and chronic toxoplasmosis
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2005)
The antitoxoplasmic activity of spiramycin (SPI) was evaluated in murine models of infection using a type-1 (RH) or type-2 (Me49) strain of Toxoplasma gondii. In mice infected with 10(2) tachyzoites of the RH strain, ...
