99mTc-sestamibi uptake in rat skeletal muscle and heart: Physiological determinants and correlations
(2009)The lipophilic cationic radiotracer 99mTc-sestamibi, known to be concentrated within mitochondria, is widely used for myocardial perfusion and to a lesser extent for muscle metabolism imaging. However, the exact distribution ... -
Age differences in cardiac autonomic regulation during intermittent exercise in the heat
(2020)Purpose: This study aimed to detect potential differences in heart-rate variability (HRV) during a moderate-intensity intermittent exercise in the heat among physically active young (25.8 ± 1.9 years), middle-aged (43.5 ± ... -
Aldehyde dehydrogenase 1B1: Molecular cloning and characterization of a novel mitochondrial acetaldehyde-metabolizing enzyme
(2010)Ethanol-induced damage is largely attributed to its toxic metabolite, acetaldehyde. Clearance of acetaldehyde is achieved by its oxidation, primarily catalyzed by the mitochondrial class II aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH2). ... -
Breast radiotherapy and early adverse cardiac effects. The role of serum biomarkers and strain echocardiography
(2019)Breast cancer radiotherapy has a clear benefit for both long-term survival and local recurrence rate. However, there is still much concern about the early radiation-induced heart toxicity. This article aimed to clarify the ... -
Cardiac telerehabilitation improves lipid profile in the long term: Insights and implications
(2022)[No abstract available] -
Current research and application of stem cells in the dog and cat
(2021)Stem cells (SCs) are multipotent cells with differentiation and proliferation capacities in many cell lineages. The majority of literature applications are about bone marrow derived stem cells (BMSCs) and adipose derived ... -
Detection of microsatellite instability in sporadic cardiac myxomas
(1999)Objective: Microsatellite instability (MIN) is an early event in DNA repair-deficient associated diseases and reflects an elevated mutation rate in the genome of neoplastic cells. Sporadic cardiac myxomas are the most ... -
Diastolic Doppler flow and tissue Doppler velocities during, and in recovery from, low-intensity supine exercise
(2008)Recent studies have reported evidence of both a short-term and a more sustained reduction in left ventricular diastolic function after prolonged strenuous exercise. Interpretation of this data is confounded by alterations ... -
Evaluation of the irradiated volume of the heart and cardiac substructures after left breast radiotherapy
(2020)Backround/Aim: Adjuvant radiotherapy in patients with cancer of the left breast may lead to impaired cardiac function. The aim of our prospective study is to evaluate (i) doses to the irradiated volume of the heart and its ... -
Experimental Cardiac Hypertrophy Induced by Oral Administration of Mineralocorticoid and Saline in Rats
(2012)We suggest a new, easily applicable way of myocardial hypertrophy induction in rats. Forty randomized age-matched male Wistar rats were divided into 2 groups of 20 each: a control group and an orally administered ... -
Lack of macroscopically evident cardiac regeneration or spontaneous functional recovery in infarcted neonatal pigs
(2020)[No abstract available] -
Long-term prognostic value of Tc-99m tetrofosmin myocardial gated-SPECT imaging in asymptomatic patients after percutaneous coronary intervention
(2008)PURPOSE: To evaluate the long-term prognostic value of Tc-99m tetrofosmin myocardial gated-SPECT in asymptomatic patients after coronary artery stenting. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We included 246 consecutive patients in the ... -
A mixture of routinely encountered xenobiotics induces both redox adaptations and perturbations in blood and tissues of rats after a long-term low-dose exposure regimen: The time and dose issue
(2019)Exposure of humans to xenobiotic mixtures is a continuous state during their everyday routine. However, the majority of toxicological studies assess the in vivo effects of individual substances rather than mixtures. ... -
Novel feed including bioactive compounds from winery wastes improved broilers' redox status in blood and tissues of vital organs
(2017)Currently, there is a great interest in the production of animal feed with antioxidant activity. The aim of this study was to examine the potential antioxidant effects of a feed supplemented with grape pomace (GP), a winery ... -
Respiratory, cardiac and metabolic responses during electrical muscle stimulation in quadriceps muscle versus comparable voluntary muscle contractions
(2021)Electrical Muscle Stimulation (EMS) and voluntary muscle contraction (VMC) are both acceptable rehabilitative modalities to preserve muscle strength loss. The study aimed to compare respiratory, metabolic, and cardiac ... -
Sepsis-Induced Cardiomyopathy: Oxidative Implications in the Initiation and Resolution of the Damage
(2017)Cardiac dysfunction may complicate the course of severe sepsis and septic shock with significant implications for patient's survival. The basic pathophysiologic mechanisms leading to septic cardiomyopathy have not been ... -
SNP identification through transcriptome analysis of the european brown hare (lepus europaeus): Cellular energetics and mother's curse
(2016)The European brown hare (Lepus europaeus, Pallas 1778) is an important small game species in Europe. Due to its size and position in the food chain, as well as its life history, phenotypic variation and the relatively ... -
Tocilizumab improves oxidative stress and endothelial glycocalyx: A mechanism that may explain the effects of biological treatment on COVID-19
(2020)We investigated the effects of tocilizumab on endothelial glycocalyx, a determinant of vascular permeability, and myocardial function in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Eighty RA patients were randomized to tocilizumab (n = 40) ... -
Validation of a new t2∗ algorithm and its uncertainty value for cardiac and liver iron load determination from MRI magnitude images
(2016)Purpose To validate an automatic algorithm for offline T2∗ measurements, providing robust, vendor-independent T2∗, and uncertainty estimates for iron load quantification in the heart and liver using clinically available ...
