(2017)Purpose: Τo investigate the potential diagnostic and prognostic role of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and carbohydrate antigen 19-9 (CA 19-9) serum levels in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Methods: One hundred ... -
Differential expression of leptin and leptin's receptor isoform (Ob-Rb) mRNA between advanced and minimally affected osteoarthritic cartilage; effect on cartilage metabolism
(2007)Objective: To investigate leptin's effect on cartilage metabolism and the pathophysiology of osteoarthritis (OA). Methods: Messenger RNA (mRNA) expression and protein levels of leptin and leptin's receptor isoforms were ... -
Does hepcidin affect erythropoiesis in hemodialysis patients?
(2006)Introduction: Prohepcidin is the precursor of hepcidin, a liver-derived peptide involved in iron metabolism by blocking its intestinal absorption and its release by the reticuloendothelial system. Iron overload and ... -
Expression profile of the GA733 gene family in colorectal cancer: Correlation with clinicopathological parameters
(2015)GA733-1/-2/-3 genes have been detected in various types of cancer, although their role has not been fully clarified. GA733-2 and GA733-1 have been correlated with lymph node metastases in laryngeal cancer and liver metastases, ... -
Glutathione S-transferase gene polymorphism and asthma: A case-control study in a pediatric population
(2022)Aim: To carry out a case-control study of the association of GST gene polymorphisms in pediatric asthma-related oxidative stress. Materials & methods: Asthma patients (n = 250) and age-matched healthy subjects (n = 250) ... -
Haplotype structure defines effects of common DPYD variants c.85T > C (rs1801265) and c.496A > G (rs2297595) on dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase activity: Implication for 5-fluorouracil toxicity
(2021)Aims: The aim of this study was to identify risk variants and haplotypes that impair dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPD) activity and are, therefore, candidate risk variants for severe toxicity to 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) ... -
Hyaluronic acid levels are increased in complicated parapneumonic pleural effusions
(2011)Background and Aim. Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a component of extracellular matrix and may play a role in the pleural inflammation which is implicated in parapneumonic effusions.The aim of the current study was to investigate ... -
ICAM-1, ICAM-2 and ICAM-3 in the sera of patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis
(2004)In order to test the serum levels of ICAM-1, ICAM-2 and ICAM-3 in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), twenty patients with IPF and eleven with secondary interstitial fibrosis (SIF), as well as forty healthy ... -
A lightly roasted coffee extract improves blood and tissue redox status in rats through enhancement of GSH biosynthesis
(2019)Coffee is a highly consumed beverage with many putative beneficial health effects, however these often come from observational studies. In the current work, a lightly roasted coffee extract that has previously been reported ... -
Organochlorine pesticide levels in Greek patients with Parkinson's disease
(2020)Background: Parkinson's disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disease, mostly presenting with characteristic motor symptoms. Organochlorines (OC) are a class of widely-used pesticides that have been included among the list ... -
Serum cobalamin concentrations in dogs with leishmaniosis before and during treatment
(2021)Hypocobalaminemia in dogs is most commonly associated with gastrointestinal disorders leading to impaired absorption and utilization of cobalamin. The objectives of this study were to compare serum cobalamin concentrations ... -
Serum leukotriene B4 levels, tonsillar hypertrophy and sleep-disordered breathing in childhood
(2018)Objectives: In children with snoring, increased production of leukotriene B4 (LTB4) may promote tonsillar hypertrophy and sleep-disordered breathing (SDB) or conversely SDB may enhance LTB4 synthesis. We explored whether: ... -
Serum levels of organochlorine pesticides in the general population of Thessaly, Greece, determined by HS-SPME GC-MS method
(2016)In this study, exposure levels of organochlorine pesticides (OCs) were determined in general population residing in Larissa, central Greece. Serum samples from 103 volunteers were analyzed by optimized headspace solid-phase ... -
Serum triglyceride and cholesterol concentrations and lipoprotein profiles in dogs with naturally occurring pancreatitis and healthy control dogs
(2020)Background: Previous studies have reported an association between hyperlipidemia and pancreatitis in dogs, but details of this association remain poorly defined. Hypothesis/Objectives: To compare serum triglyceride and ... -
Spatial and temporal distribution of p,p′-DDE (1‑dichloro‑2,2‑bis (p‑chlorophenyl) ethylene) blood levels across the globe. A systematic review and meta-analysis
(2019)Background: Although p,p′‑DDT (1,1,1‑trichloro-2,2‑bis (p‑chlorophenyl)‑ethane) has been banned for decades in most countries, its major metabolite p,p′-DDE (1‑dichloro‑2,2‑bis (p‑chlorophenyl) ethylene) is still detected ...
