Animal models in peritoneal dialysis
(2015)Peritoneal dialysis (PD) has been extensively used over the past years as a method of kidney replacement therapy for patients with end stage renal disease (ESRD). In an attempt to better understand the properties of the ... -
The antimicrobial effect of oregano essential oil, nisin and their combination against Salmonella Enteritidis in minced sheep meat during refrigerated storage
(2010)The antimicrobial effect of oregano essential oil (EO) at 0.6 or 0.9%, nisin at 500 or 1000 IU/g, and their combination against Salmonella Enteritidis was studied in minced sheep meat during storage at 4 degrees or 10 ... -
Damage-associated molecular patterns derived from mitochondria may contribute to the hemodialysis-associated inflammation
(2014)Inflammation is common in hemodialysis (HD) patients. Mitochondrial damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) are released during cell necrosis or apoptosis and induce inflammation. Cell apoptosis is increased in HD ... -
Effects of SNP, ouabain, and amiloride on electrical potential profile of isolated sheep pleura
(2001)The fluid and solute transport properties of pleural tissue were studied by using specimens of intact visceral and parietal pleura from adult sheep lungs. The samples were transferred to the laboratory in a Krebs-Ringer ... -
Functional similarities between pleura and the renal proximal tubule - membrane and cellular considerations
(2005)The small amount of liquid that, under physiological conditions, is presented in the pleural cavity has been the focus of extensive research for more than a century. However, there are still unanswered questions and ... -
Glycogen Phosphorylase as a Target for Type 2 Diabetes: Synthetic, Biochemical, Structural and Computational Evaluation of Novel N-acyl-N '-(beta-D-glucopyranosyl) Urea Inhibitors
(2015)Glycogen phosphorylase (GP), a validated target for the development of anti-hyperglycaemic agents, has been targeted for the design of novel glycopyranosylamine inhibitors. Exploiting the two most potent inhibitors from ... -
Insulin-Induced Electrochemical Changes in Pleura are Associated with the Location within the Pleural Cavity
(2011)Aim: We investigated the effects of insulin on the electrophysiology of sheep pleural specimens obtained from the upper and lower parts of the pleural cavity and the insulin receptor abundance in these regions. Materials ... -
Insulin-Induced Electrophysiology Changes in Human Pleura Are Mediated via Its Receptor
(2010)Background. Insulin directly changes the sheep pleural electrophysiology. The aim of this study was to investigate whether insulin induces similar effects in human pleura, to clarify insulin receptor's involvement, and to ... -
A method for limiting pitfalls in the production of enhancement kinetic curves in 3T dynamic magnetic resonance mammography
(2012)Purpose: The aim of the present study is to investigate means for the reduction or even elimination of enhancement kinetic curve errors due to breast motion in order to avoid pitfalls and to increase the sensitivity and ... -
Pin-assisted resin infiltration of porous substrates
(2015)We analyze computationally the process of pin-assisted resin infiltration of porous substrates. In such a process, a porous substrate is pulled over a staggered array of stationary pins. A wedge-shaped fluid region forms ... -
Rapid effect of progesterone on transepithelial resistance of human fetal membranes: Evidence for non-genomic action
(2008)1. The factors that regulate human fetal membrane transport mechanisms are unknown. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of progesterone on transepithelial electrical resistance (R-TE) in the human ... -
Rapid effects of 17 beta-estradiol and progesterone on sheep visceral and parietal pleurae via a nitric oxide pathway
(2002)We investigated the effects of 17beta-estradiol and progesterone on transepithelial electrical resistance (R-TE) in sheep visceral and parietal pleurae. Specimens of intact pleurae from adult female sheep were used. The ... -
Reactive oxygen metabolites as an index of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease severity
(2006)Aim. The purpose of this study was to determine whether reactive oxygen metabolite species (ROMs) correlated with lung function in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and to investigate whether ROMs ... -
Salbutamol Modulation of Ion Transport in Sheep Parietal Pleura Is Protein Dependent
(2011)The formation of pleural effusion during pulmonary edema is an important physiological mechanism of resolution of alveolar flooding. In cases of pulmonary edema resulting from acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) ... -
Synthesis and electrophysical properties of (1-x)Ce0.8Gd0.2O2-delta+xTiO(2) (x=0-0.06) solid-state solutions
(2008)In the present work the electrical properties of (1-x)Ce0.8Gd0.2O2-delta+xTiO(2) (x=0-0.06) synthesized by the standard ceramic technology were investigated, in a wide range of oxygen partial pressures (0.21-10(-20)atm at ...
