Anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide-2 (CCP2) autoantibodies and extra-articular manifestations in Greek patients with rheumatoid arthritis
(2008)The objective of our study was to establish whether there is an association between rheumatoid arthritis with extra-articular manifestations (exRA) and anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide 2 (anti-CCP2) antibodies in Greeks. ... -
Assessment of Oxidative Stress in Septic and Obese Patients Using Markers of Oxidation-reduction Potential
(2015)Background/ Aim: The novel static (sORP) and capacity (cORP) oxidation-reduction potential markers were examined for assessing oxidative stress in plasma of patients with sepsis. Moreover, the possible effect of obesity-induced ... -
Biomarkers Obtained by Non-Invasive Methods in Patients with COPD: Where do we Stand, what do we Expect?
(2009)Recently, there has been widespread interest in the use of non-invasive methods for the assessment of airway inflammation in a variety of lung diseases including chronic obstructive pulmonary disease ( COPD). Sputum induction ... -
Blood reflects tissue oxidative stress: a systematic review
(2015)We examined whether the levels of oxidative stress biomarkers measured in blood reflect the tissue redox status. Data from studies that measured redox biomarkers in blood, heart, liver, kidney and skeletal muscle were ... -
Breast cancer risk in relation to most prevalent IgE specific antibodies: A case control study in Greece
(2007)Background: This study aims to explore the debatable role of allergy in breast cancer (BC) by using country-specific biological markers, namely levels of the most prevalent allergen -specific immunoglobulin E in Greece. ... -
Exercise as a model to study redox homeostasis in blood: the effect of protocol and sampling point
(2012)Twenty males ran either on a level treadmill (nonmuscle-damaging condition) or on a downhill treadmill (muscle-damaging condition). Blood and urine samples were collected before and after exercise (immediately after, 1h, ... -
FCGR polymorphisms in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis with Fc-containing TNF inhibitors
(2015)Objectives: Reproducible association of a functional polymorphism in FCGR2A with response to a TNF inhibitor (TNFi) in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) led us to explore other Fc gamma R functional polymorphisms. ... -
The Impact of Possible Mercury Source-Point Contamination in the Coastal Area of Skiathos Island
(2020)In Skiathos Island the water is not potable due to mercury contamination and salinization. The mercury’s origin is natural due to the existence of cinnabar in the Skiathos aquifer as a mineral in the Earth’s crust. The ... -
Inflammatory and oxidative stress biomarkers in allergic rhinitis: the effect of smoking
(2009)Accumulating evidence confirms the presence of pan-airway inflammation in allergic rhinitis patients. Smoking is known to affect the asthmatic airway inflammation. However, no study has evaluated the impact of smoking on ... -
Intelligent identification of biomarkers for the study of obstructive nephropathy
(2013)Obstructive Nephropathy (ON) is a renal disease, which pathological profile is the result of various, tightly coupled and co-regulated, molecular processes, pervading various layers of molecular dissection. In this context, ... -
Relationship Between Tumor Necrosis Factor-alpha (TNFA) Gene Polymorphisms and Cardiac Sarcoidosis
(2014)Identification of genetic predisposition to cardiac sarcoidosis could play a critical role in the detection of subclinical forms of the disease. The aim of this study was to investigate the possible correlations between ...
