Additive enhancement of apoptosis by TRAIL and fenretinide in metastatic breast cancer cells in vitro
(2014)Successful management of metastatic breast cancer still needs better chemotherapeutic approaches. The combination of fenretinide (4-HPR), a synthetic retinoid inducing apoptosis by ROS generation, and TRAIL, a cell death ... -
Anvirzel (TM) in combination with cisplatin in breast, colon, lung, prostate, melanoma and pancreatic cancer cell lines
(2013)Background: Platinum derivatives are used widely for the treatment of many cancers. However, the toxicity that is observed makes imperative the need for new drugs, or new combinations. Anvirzel (TM) is an extract which has ... -
Association of ischaemic stroke subtype with long-term cardiovascular events
(2014)Background and purpose: There is no strong evidence that all ischaemic stroke types are associated with high cardiovascular risk. Our aim was to investigate whether all ischaemic stroke types are associated with high ... -
Azithromycin has an antiproliferative and autophagic effect on airway smooth muscle cells
(2009)Azithromycin is used in long-term, low-dose treatment of airway diseases where airway wall remodelling is present. Since it improves total score symptom and respiratory function of such patients, we hypothesise that ... -
Characteristics of prevalent and new COPD cases in Greece: the GOLDEN study
(2015)Background: Greece has one of the highest rates of smoking and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) in Europe. Aim: The study aimed to record both the disease characteristics among a sample of Greek COPD patients ... -
Comparing normal primary endocervical adenoepithelial cells to uninfected and influenza B virus infected human cervical adenocarcinoma HeLa cells
(2006)Human adenocarcinoma HeLa cells surviving infection with low (10(-9) units), medium (10(-6) units), and high (10(-2) units) influenza B titers were compared to their uninfected precursors and to normal endocervical ... -
Continuing bonds in adjustment to bereavement: Impact of abrupt versus gradual separation
(2012)There is debate whether continuing bonds with a deceased person help or hinder adaptation to bereavement. This longitudinal study examined causal relationships between continuing bonds and symptoms over time. Following ... -
An Ecological Study of the Determinants of Differences in 2009 Pandemic Influenza Mortality Rates between Countries in Europe
(2011)Background: Pandemic A (H1N1) 2009 mortality rates varied widely from one country to another. Our aim was to identify potential socioeconomic determinants of pandemic mortality and explain between-country variation. ... -
Extrachromosomal genetic elements detected in Escherichia coli treated with the antibacterial agents kanamycin and benzenetriol
(2013)Resistance to kanamycin was induced in Escherichia coli cells subjected to gradually increasing concentrations of the amino glycoside antibiotic kanamycin. The frequency of the appearance of resistance is not in agreement ... -
Guilt in Bereavement: The Role of Self-Blame and Regret in Coping with Loss
(2014)Despite the apparent centrality of guilt in complicating reactions following bereavement, scientific investigation has been limited. Establishing the impact of specific components associated with guilt could enhance ... -
In vivo cell kinetics in breast carcinogenesis
(2001)Background: Disruption of the balance between apoptosis and proliferation is considered to be an important factor in the development and progression of tumours. In the present study we determined the in vivo cell kinetics ... -
Incidence of apoptosis and cell proliferation in multiple myeloma - Correlation with bcl-2 protein expression and serum levels of interleukin-6 (IL-6) and soluble IL-6 receptor
(2002)We evaluated the in vivo incidence of apoptosis and cell proliferation in multiple myeloma (MM) and investigated the correlation of both cellular events with histological tumour stage and grade, bcl-2 protein expression, ... -
Management of protein intake in the fruit fly Anastrepha fraterculus
(2011)This work tested if carbohydrates and proteins ingestion is regulated in the South American fruit fly, Anastrepha fraterculus, to optimize survival and reproduction. Adult food treatments were established by providing sugar ... -
Oxidative stress and myocardial dysfunction in young rabbits after short term anabolic steroids administration
(2013)The present study focuses on the short term effects of repeated low level administration of turinabol and methanabol on cardiac function in young rabbits (4 months-old). The experimental scheme consisted of two oral ... -
Prognostic factors related to sequelae in childhood bacterial meningitis: Data from a Greek meningitis registry
(2011)Background: Bacterial meningitis (BM) is a life-threatening disease, often related with serious complications and sequelae. Infants and children who survive bacterial meningitis often suffer neurological and other sequelae. ... -
Role of lupeol synthase in Lotus japonicus nodule formation
(2011)P>Triterpenes are plant secondary metabolites, derived from the cyclization of 2,3-oxidosqualene by oxidosqualene cyclases (OSCs). Here, we investigated the role of lupeol synthase, encoded by OSC3, and its product, lupeol, ...
