Triantafyllou, E. A.; Tsapournioti, S.; Mylonis, I.; Simos, G.; Molyvdas, P. A.; Paraskeva, E. (2014)

Differential expression of hypoxia-inducible factor 1 alpha in non-small cell lung cancer and small cell lung cancer

Karetsi, E.; Ioannou, M. G.; Kerenidi, T.; Minas, M.; Molyvdas, P. A.; Gourgoulianis, K. I.; Paraskeva, E. (2012)

OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to compare the expression of hypoxia-inducible factor 1 alpha and vascular endothelial growth factor in small cell lung cancer and subtypes of non-small cell lung cancer and examine ...

Endothelial Progenitor Cells in the Pathogenesis of Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis: An Evolving Concept

Malli, F.; Koutsokera, A.; Paraskeva, E.; Zakynthinos, E.; Papagianni, M.; Makris, D.; Tsilioni, I.; Molyvdas, P. A.; Gourgoulianis, K. I.; Daniil, Z. (2013)

Effect of sodium-potassium pump inhibition by ouabain on the permeability of isolated visceral sheep peritoneum

Zarogiannis, S.; Liakopoulos, V.; Hatzoglou, C.; Kourti, P.; Vogiatzidis, K.; Potamianos, S.; Eleftheriadis, T.; Gourgoulianis, K.; Molyvdas, P. A.; Stefanidis, I. (2007)

The permeability for small solutes and the ultrafiltration capacity of the peritoneum are essential for effective peritoneal dialysis (PD) treatment. Elucidation of the factors that regulate these two properties is therefore ...

Effects of SNP, ouabain, and amiloride on electrical potential profile of isolated sheep pleura

Hatzoglou, C. H.; Gourgoulianis, K. I.; Molyvdas, P. A. (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 ...
