Amiloride-sensitive sodium channels on the parietal human peritoneum: Evidence by ussing-type chamber experiments
(2007)The mesothelium is part of the peritoneal water and ion transport barrier essential for peritoneal dialysis (PD) treatment and has a central role in the pathogenesis of peritoneal fibrosis and ultrafiltration failure ... -
Beyond lesion detection: Towards semantic interpretation of endoscopy videos
(2017)Several computer-based medical systems have been proposed for automatic detection of abnormalities in a variety of medical imaging domains. The majority of these systems are based on binary supervised classification ... -
Blood reflects tissue oxidative stress depending on biomarker and tissue studied
(2009)This study investigated whether selected oxidative stress markers measured in blood adequately reflect redox status in skeletal muscle, heart, and liver. Several markers were determined after implementing two treatments ... -
Collagen fibril diameter distribution affects permeability of ligament tissue: A computational study on healthy and injured tissues
(2020)Background and objective In a vascular or hypovascular tissues, elements required for maintaining tissue functions are recruited through diffusion, which is highly related with the permeability of the extracellular matrix ... -
Cyanotoxins as the “common suspects” for the Dalmatian pelican (Pelecanus crispus) deaths in a Mediterranean reconstructed reservoir
(2018)Toxic cyanobacterial blooms have been implicated for their negative consequences on many terrestrial and aquatic organisms. Water birds belong to the most common members of the freshwater food chains and are most likely ... -
Evidence of blood and muscle redox status imbalance in experimentally induced renal insufficiency in a rabbit model
(2019)Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is accompanied by a disturbed redox homeostasis, especially in end-stage patients, which is associated with pathological complications such as anemia, atherosclerosis, and muscle atrophy. ... -
The human GPCR signal transduction network
(2021)The eukaryotic cell surface G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) interact with a wide spectrum of ligands. The intracellular transmission of the extracellular signal is mediated by the selective coupling of GPCRs to G ... -
Passive strain-induced matrix synthesis and organization in shape-specific, cartilaginous neotissues
(2014)Tissue-engineered musculoskeletal soft tissues typically lack the appropriate mechanical robustness of their native counterparts, hindering their clinical applicability. With structure and function being intimately linked, ... -
Root vegetables bioaccumulate microcystins-LR in a developmental stage-dependent manner under realistic exposure scenario: The case of carrot and radish
(2020)Cyanotoxins are secondary metabolites of the ubiquitous cyanobacteria and exert their toxicity to plants and humans. Human health can be impacted by cyanotoxin bioaccumulation in crops via irrigation from contaminated water ... -
Self-Healing pH- and Enzyme Stimuli-Responsive Hydrogels for Targeted Delivery of Gemcitabine to Treat Pancreatic Cancer
(2018)A novel, multifunctional hydrogel that exhibits a unique set of properties for the effective treatment of pancreatic cancer (PC) is presented. The material is composed of a pentablock terpolypeptide of the type ... -
Simulation of magnetic nanoparticles crossing through a simplified blood-brain barrier model for Glioblastoma multiforme treatment
(2021)Background and Objectives: Glioblastoma multiforme is considered as one of the most aggressive types of cancer, while various treatment techniques have been proposed. Magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) loaded with drug and ... -
Tissue characterization: T1, t2 andt2* techniques
(2015)Noninvasive characterization of tissue has long been the unique domain of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) when compared to other imaging modalities. Techniques for such typically emphasize one or more MR-based relaxation ... -
Ultrasonic monitoring of bone fracture healing
(2008)Quantitative ultrasound has attracted significant interest in the evaluation of bone fracture healing. Animal and clinical studies have demonstrated that the propagation velocity across fractured bones can be used as an ... -
The use of strain gradient elasticity in modelling tissues: The case of the human heart
(2010)In recent years, strain gradient elasticity has been used to capture size effects in stiffness and toughness that appear in structures of different sizes. An important aspect of such theories, often taken of little notice, ...
