Antiviral unsaturates nucleosides
(2008)In the search for effective, selective and nontoxic antiviral agents, a variety of nucleoside analogues have been synthesized, with different functionalities in the carbohydrate moiety. Unsaturated nucleoside analogues are ... -
Bioactive properties of Sanguisorba minor L. cultivated in central Greece under different fertilization regimes
(2020)In this study, the chemical characterization and bioactive properties of S. minor cultivated under different fertilization rates (control, half rate and full rate) were evaluated. Twenty-two phenolic compounds were identified, ... -
Design, synthesis, and biological evaluation of novel C5-modified pyrimidine ribofuranonucleosides as potential antitumor or/and antiviral agents
(2020)Background: Nucleoside analogues are well-known antitumor, antiviral, and chemotherapeutic agents. Alterations on both their sugar and the heterocyclic parts may lead to significant changes in the spectrum of their biological ... -
The dissipation and microbial ecotoxicity of tebuconazole and its transformation products in soil under standard laboratory and simulated winter conditions
(2018)Tebuconazole (TBZ) is a widely used triazole fungicide at EU level on cereals and vines. It is relatively persistent in soil where it is transformed to various transformation products (TPs) which might be environmentally ... -
Essential oil content and composition, nutrient and mycorrhizal status of some aromatic and medicinal plants of Northern Greece
(2010)A field survey was conducted in three northern Greek mountain areas (Chortiatis, Ossa, and Pieria) to investigate the mycorrhizal and nutritional status, and the essential oil content and composition of common medicinal ... -
An evaluation of indirubin analogues as phosphorylase kinase inhibitors
(2015)Phosphorylase kinase (PhK) has been linked with a number of conditions such as glycogen storage diseases, psoriasis, type 2 diabetes and more recently, cancer (Camus et al., 2012 [6]). However, with few reported structural ... -
Interactome of obesity: Obesidome: Genetic obesity, stress induced obesity, pathogenic obesity interaction
(2017)Obesity is a chronic disease of increasing prevalence reaching epidemic proportions. Genetic defects as well as epigenetic effects contribute to the obesity phenotype. Investigating gene (e.g. MC4R defects)-environment ... -
Mechanisms involved in the induced differentiation of leukemia cells
(2003)Despite the remarkable progress achieved in the treatment of leukemias over the last several years, many problems (multidrug resistance [MDR], cellular heterogeneity, heterogeneous molecular abnormalities, karyotypic ... -
Myeloid-derived suppressor cells: Major figures that shape the immunosuppressive and angiogenic network in cancer
(2019)Myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) constitute a vast population of immature myeloid cells implicated in various conditions. Most notably, their role in cancer is of great complexity. They exert immunosuppressive ... -
Nanosystems for the encapsulation of natural products: The case of chitosan biopolymer as a matrix
(2020)Chitosan is a cationic natural polysaccharide, which has emerged as an increasingly interesting biomaterialover the past few years. It constitutes a novel perspective in drug delivery systems and nanocarriers’ formulations ... -
New therapeutic strategies for the treatment of male lower urinary tract symptoms
(2016)Male lower urinary tract symptoms (LUTS) are prevalent in the general population, especially in those of advanced age, and are characterized by notable diversity in etiology and presentation, and have been proven to cause ... -
On the immunoregulatory role of statins in multiple sclerosis: the effects on Th17 cells
(2019)Statins, the cholesterol-lowering drugs, also possess immunomodulatory properties, affecting among others T cell activation and differentiation, antigen presentation, and regulatory T cell (Tregs) maintenance and ... -
Parkinson's disease and pesticides: Are microRNAs the missing link?
(2020)Parkinson's disease (PD) is a common neurodegenerative disorder that leads to significant morbidity and decline in the quality of life. It develops due to loss of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra pars compacta, ... -
The proteasome as a target for cancer treatment: Focus on bortezomib
(2005)Targeted degradation of key regulatory proteins is an essential element of cell-cycle control. The proteasome plays a pivotal role in the degradation of such proteins and has, therefore, become an important therapeutic ... -
RNase P: A promising molecular target for the development of new drugs
(2004)RNase P is an ubiquitous and essential endonuclease in tRNA biogenesis, which generates the mature 5′-termini of tRNAs. RNase P activities have been identified in all three kingdoms of life (Bacteria, Archaea, Eukarya). ... -
Salinity effect on nutritional value, chemical composition and bioactive compounds content of Cichorium spinosum L.
(2017)Soil salinization is an increasing problem for many areas throughout the world that renders prohibitive vegetables and crop production in general. In the present study, Cichorium spinosum L. plants were grown under saline ... -
Skeletal muscle relaxants in anaesthesiology
(1999)During the 16th century, European explorers found that the Indians along the Amazon and Orinoco Rivers were using an arrow poison, named curare, that produced death by skeletal paralysis. Curare is one of several different ... -
Systemic sclerosis: From pathogenesis towards targeted immunotherapies
(2012)Systemic sclerosis (SSc), a chronic disease with widespread collagen deposition, has three pathogenetic facets: immune activation, microvasculopathy and fibroblast activation. Immune activation and microvasculopathy occur ... -
Toll-like receptors and their role in renal pathologies
(2012)Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are the first identified and best studied family of pattern recognition receptors. Expressed in immunocytes, TLRs initiate innate immune responses and concurrently shape the subsequent adaptive ...
