Follicular Fluid Oocyte/Cumulus-Free DNA Concentrations as a Potential Biomolecular Marker of Embryo Quality and IVF Outcome
(2014)The present prospective study examined the follicular fluid oocyte/cumulus-free DNA concentrations (ff o/c-free DNA) during ovarian stimulation and the possible association between ff o/c-free DNA and embryological results ... -
Formation of a secondary corpus luteum after ultrasound-guided follicular aspiration in cows
(2000)This paper reports the observed formation of a secondary corpus luteum (CL) in the presence of the cyclic corpus luteum, on the ovaries of a cow after ultrasound-guided follicular aspiration for oocyte recovery. The secondary ... -
Gas chromatographic - Mass spectrometric cardiotonic glycosides detection in equine urine doping analysis
(2004)A screening method for the detection of cardiotonic glycosides in horse's urine is presented in this paper. This method is based on the detection by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and gas chromatography-high ... -
Impact of HIV Type 1 DNA Levels on Spontaneous Disease Progression: A Meta-Analysis
(2012)Several studies have reported the prognostic strength of HIV-1 DNA with variable results however. The aims of the current study were to estimate more accurately the ability of HIV-1 DNA to predict progression of HIV-1 ... -
INCREASED OXIDATIVE STRESS BLOOD MARKERS IN WELL-TRAINED ROWERS FOLLOWING TWO THOUSAND-METER ROWING ERGOMETER RACE
(2009)Kyparos, A, Vrabas, IS, Nikolaidis, MG, Riganas, CS, and Kouretas, D. Increased oxidative stress blood markers in well-trained rowers following two thousand-meter rowing ergometer race. J Strength Cond Res 23(5): 1418-1426, ... -
Influence of hemodialysis on the mean blood flow velocity in the middle cerebral artery
(2005)Background: Several effects of hemodialysis, including hemoconcentration, alterations of hemostasis or hemorheology and endothelial activation, could potentially interfere with cerebral blood flow (CBF) regulation. These ... -
Leptin in human reproduction
(1999)The recent discovery of the obese (ob) gene has provided new insight into the mechanism which controls body fat mass. Leptin, a product of the ob gene, serves as the link between fat and the brain. This protein, by acting ... -
No effect of antioxidant supplementation on muscle performance and blood redox status adaptations to eccentric training
(2011)Background: It was recently reported that antioxidant supplementation decreases training efficiency and prevents cellular adaptations to chronic exercise. Objective: This study aimed to investigate the effects of vitamin ... -
Nonlinear binding of sex steroids to albumin and sex hormone binding globulin
(1997)We have studied the binding of sex steroids to albumin and sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG) using gel filtration chromatography for the separation of the bound from the free fraction of the steroid. It was found that ... -
Oxidative stress, inflammation and angiogenesis markers in elite female water polo athletes throughout a season
(2013)Elite athletes undergo heavy training programs throughout the year. The aim of the present study was to evaluate blood biomarkers of redox status, oxidative stress, inflammation and angiogenesis over the course of a ... -
Oxytocin is not important for the control of gonadotrophin secretion in the late follicular phase of the cycle
(2007)Objective To study the role of oxytocin in basal and GnRH-induced gonadotrophin secretion in normal women. Design Normal women were studied in three cycles. When the diameter of the leading follicle was 15-16 mm, the women ... -
Passive smoking reduces and vitamin C increases exercise-induced oxidative stress: Does this make passive smoking an anti-oxidant and vitamin C a pro-oxidant stimulus?
(2014)The current interpretative framework states that, for a certain experimental treatment (usually a chemical substance) to be classified as "anti-oxidant", it must possess the property of reducing (or even nullifying) ... -
Relationship between electrical resistance of cervical mucus and ovarian steroid concentration at the time of artificial insemination in ewes
(2014)The purpose of this study was to investigate whether fertile or non-fertile inseminations (AI) in synchronized ewes are correlated with the electrical resistance of cervical mucus (ERCM) and the ovarian steroid concentration. ... -
Repeated administration of the nitric oxide synthase inhibitor L-NAME differentially affects rats' recognition memory
(2011)Nitric oxide (NO) is sought to be an intracellular messenger in the central nervous system and its implication in learning and memory is well documented. Compounds that inhibit nitric oxide synthase (NOS), the key synthesizing ... -
Serum Acute Phase Proteins as Clinical Phase Indicators and Outcome Predictors in Naturally Occurring Canine Monocytic Ehrlichiosis
(2011)Background: Canine monocytic ehrlichiosis (CME), caused by Ehrlichia canis, is an important tick-borne disease of global importance. Currently, limited information is available on the diagnostic and prognostic value of ... -
Serum pharmacokinetics of clindamycin hydrochloride in normal dogs when administered at two dosage regimens
(2011)The aim of this cross-over study was to compare clindamycin pharmacokinetics in the serum of clinically normal dogs when administered orally at two dosage regimens (5.5 mg/kg, twice daily, and 11 mg/kg, once daily), separated ... -
Serum retinoic acid, retinol and retinyl palmitate levels in patients with lung cancer
(2006)Objectives: Epidemiological studies have shown an inverse relationship between dietary vitamin A intake and the risk of developing lung cancer. The aim of this study was to investigate the vitamin A status in patients with ... -
Sex-hormone binding globulin from sheep serum: purification and effects of pregnancy and treatment with exogenous estradiol
(1999)Sex-hormone binding globulin (SHBG) is a protein that binds sex steroids in the serum of many species. SHBG binds androgens and estrogens in humans and primates with high affinity, but behaves as an androgen binding protein ... -
Short duration exhaustive aerobic exercise induces oxidative stress: a novel play-oriented volitional fatigue test
(2007)Aim. Exercise is associated with the generation of reactive oxygen and nitrogen species. This study examined the oxidative stress in response to a novel volitional fatigue test. Methods. Eleven male college students performed ...
