Angiogenin, Angiopoietin-1, Angiopoietin-2, and Endostatin Serum Levels in Inflammatory Bowel Disease
Oikonomou, K. A.; Kapsoritakis, A. N.; Kapsoritaki, A. I.; Manolakis, A. C.; Tiaka, E. K.; Tsiopoulos, F. D.; Tsiompanidis, I. A.; Potamianos, S. P. (2011)Background: Angiogenesis is a complex process, involving a great number of mediators. It is implicated in the pathogenesis of numerous diseases, holding a critical role in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). The objective ... -
Downregulation of serum epidermal growth factor in patients with inflammatory bowel disease. Is there a link with mucosal damage?
Oikonomou, K. A.; Kapsoritakis, A. N.; Kapsoritaki, A. I.; Manolakis, A. C.; Tsiopoulos, F. D.; Germenis, A. E.; Potamianos, S. P. (2010)Background: Epidermal growth factor (EGF) is a multipotent peptide which contributes to epithelial development, inhibition of gastric acid secretion, acceleration of wound healing, and promotion of angiogenesis. The aim ... -
Drug-Induced Nephrotoxicity in Inflammatory Bowel Disease
Oikonomou, K. A.; Kapsoritakis, A. N.; Stefanidis, I.; Potamianos, S. P. (2011)Conservative management of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is based on a combination of drugs, including amino-salicylates (ASAs), steroids, antibiotics, immunosuppressives and biologic agents. Although various side effects ... -
Emergence of Crohn's disease in Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis during treatment with etanercept: a causal link or a mere coincidence?
Oikonomou, K. A.; Kapsoritakis, A. N.; Tsiopoulos, F. D.; Tsikouras, A. N.; Potamianos, S. (2010) -
Lower fibroblast growth factor 23 levels in young adults with crohn disease as a possible secondary compensatory effect on the disturbance of bone and mineral metabolism
Oikonomou, K. A.; Orfanidou, T. I.; Vlychou, M. K.; Kapsoritakis, A. N.; Tsezou, A.; Malizos, K. N.; Potamianos, S. P. (2014)Fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF-23) is a bone-derived circulating phosphaturic factor that decreases serum concentration of phosphate and vitamin D, suggested to actively participate in a complex renal-gastrointestinal-skeletal ... -
Neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) in inflammatory bowel disease: association with pathophysiology of inflammation, established markers, and disease activity
Oikonomou, K. A.; Kapsoritakis, A. N.; Theodoridou, C.; Karangelis, D.; Germenis, A.; Stefanidis, I.; Potamianos, S. P. (2012)Neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) is a multi-potent 25-kDa protein mainly secreted by neutrophils. In inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), overexpression of NGAL in colon epithelium has been previously shown. ... -
Readressing the Role of Toll-Like Receptor-4 Alleles in Inflammatory Bowel Disease: Colitis, Smoking, and Seroreactivity
Manolakis, A. C.; Kapsoritakis, A. N.; Kapsoritaki, A.; Tiaka, E. K.; Oikonomou, K. A.; Lotis, V.; Vamvakopoulou, D.; Davidi, I.; Vamvakopoulos, N.; Potamianos, S. P. (2013)Toll-like receptor (TLR) polymorphisms, and especially TLR-4 Asp299Gly and TLR-4 Thr399Ile, have been linked with Crohn's disease (CD) and to a lesser extent with ulcerative colitis (UC), CD behavior, and compromised ...
