Cognitive function and exercise training for chronic renal disease patients: A literature review
(2015)
Objective: Cognitive impairment is very often noted in patients with Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD). Even though, exercise is considered to be a quantifiable activity that improves cognition in animals and humans, it seems ...
Cold shock Y-box protein-1 proteolysis autoregulates its transcriptional activities
(2013)
Background: The Y-box protein-1 (YB-1) fulfills pleiotropic functions relating to gene transcription, mRNA processing, and translation. It remains elusive how YB-1 shuttling into the nuclear and cytoplasmic compartments ...
A single-blind randomized controlled trial to evaluate the effect of 6 months of progressive aerobic exercise training in patients with uraemic restless legs syndrome
(2013)
Background. Uraemic restless legs syndrome (RLS) affects a significant proportion of patients receiving haemodialysis (HD) therapy. Exercise training has been shown to improve RLS symptoms in uraemic RLS patients; however, ...
CD8+T-cell auto-reactivity is dependent on the expression of the immunoproteasome subunit LMP7 in exposed to lipopolysaccharide antigen presenting cells and epithelial target cells
(2013)
Proteasome generates peptides for presentation to CD8+ T-cells by antigen presenting cells (APCs) and peripheral cells. Inflammation alters proteasome to immunoproteasome, producing a different pool of peptides. The effect ...
Uric acid induces caspase-1 activation, IL-1β secretion and P2X7 receptor dependent proliferation in primary human lymphocytes
(2013)
Background: Urate through Nacht Domain, Leucine-Rich Repeat, and pyrin domain-containing protein 3 (NALP3) dependent caspase-1 activation stimulates macrophages to secrete inteleukin-1β (IL-1β). Purinergic receptor P2X7 ...
Urate crystals induce NLRP3 inflammasome-dependent IL-1β secretion and proliferation in isolated primary human T-cells
(2015)
Background: Urate through NOD-like receptor family, pyrin domain containing 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome-dependent caspase-1 activation stimulates macrophages to secrete inteleukin-1β (IL-1β). Urate also enhances adaptive immunity ...
High rates of obesity prevalence in adults living in Central Greece: Data from the ARGOS Study
(2010)
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the prevalence of obesity in adults of a large region of Central Greece. DESIGN: The target group was adults aged 18 to 79 years who were residents of the region of Thessaly for at least one year. ...
Late onset of clinically apparent central vein stenosis due to previous central venous catheter in a patient with inherited thrombophilia
(2014)
We describe a case of a patient with a functional kidney transplant who was admitted to our department with clinically evident central vein stenosis (CVS) 7 years after the removal of a central venous catheter (CVC) from ...
Restless legs syndrome in hemodialysis patients: an epidemiologic survey in Greece
(2013)
Background: Restless legs syndrome (RLS) is a sensorimotor disorder characterized by an uncontrolled need to move extremities accompanied by unpleasant sensations, which frequently leads to sleep disturbances. In hemodialysis ...
