Novel Selenosemicarbazone Metal Complexes Exert Anti-tumor Effect via Alternative, Caspase-independent Necroptotic Cell Death
(Bentham Science Publ Ltd, Sharjah, 2014)
The synthesis and chemical characterization of the novel 2,6-diacetylpyridine-bis(selenosemicarbazone) metal complexes of Zn(II), Cd(II) and Ni(II) were published previously. Here we report first evidence on anti-proliferative ...
Utilization of ultrasound as a diagnostic tool in the preoperative assessment of patients with adnexal masses
(Balkan Union of Oncology (B.U.ON.), 2015)
Purpose: To evaluate the reliability of ultrasound scan (US) findings in the preoperative assessment of the nature of adnexal masses in females. Methods: After detailed history, a preoperative US examination was performed ...
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 ...

Objective: Vitamin D (vitD) mediates numerous health conditions other than bone health and mineralization. Its role in cardiometabolic condition is still inconclusive. Methods: We conducted a cross-sectional study in 87 ...
Improvement of language functions in a chronic non-fluent post-stroke aphasic patient following bilateral sequential theta burst magnetic stimulation
(Routledge Journals, Taylor & Francis Ltd, Abingdon, 2015)
In chronic non-fluent aphasia patients, inhibition of the intact right hemisphere (RH), by transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) or similar methods, can induce improvement in language functions. The supposed mechanism ...

Background: Diets rich in n-6 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUEAs) and saturated fatty acids (SFA) have been associated. with increased risk of obesity and the metabolic syndrome (MetS), but the evidence is inconsistent, ...
Oxidative and nitrosative stress in myeloproliferative neoplasms: the impact on the AKT/mTOR signaling pathway
(Balkan Union of Oncology (B.U.ON.), 2018)
Purpose: A common feature of malignancies is increased reactive oxygen species (ROS) and reactive nitrogen species (RNS). We analyzed the influence of oxidative and nitrosative stress on the activation of AKT/mTOR signaling ...
Effect of acute heat stress on rat adrenal medulla - a morphological and ultrastructural study
(Sciendo, Warsaw, 2012)
Isolated rat adrenal medulla was analyzed by light and electron microscope after an acute (60 min) exposure to high ambient temperature (38A degrees C). Under these conditions there was a significant rise in plasma adrenaline ...
