Inhibition of ozone-induced SP-A oxidation by plant polyphenols
(2007)
Surfactant protein-A (SP-A) is the best studied and most abundant of the protein components of lung surfactant and plays an important role in host defense of the lung. It has been shown that ozone-induced oxidation of SP-A ...
The effect of early motion on tibial tunnel widening after anterior cruciate ligament replacement using hamstring tendon grafts
(2004)
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the hypothesis that early motion increases tibial tunnel enlargement in patients who underwent anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) replacement with hamstring autograft. Cohort analytic ...
Position sense and reaction angle after eccentric exercise: The repeated bout effect
(2008)
The purpose of the present investigation was to examine the effects of a repeated eccentric exercise on position sense and muscle reaction angle. Fourteen healthy women underwent an isokinetic exercise session on their ...
Acute phase markers for the differentiation of infectious and malignant pleural effusions
(2007)
Acute-phase markers, such as C-reactive protein (CRP), interleukin-6 (IL-6) and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), have been studied in inflammatory and malignant disorders. We examined the diagnostic value of these ...
Aberrant methylation of c-myc and c-fos protooncogenes and p53 tumor suppressor gene in myelodysplastic syndromes and acute non-lymphocytic leukemia
(2003)
Purpose: Aberrant methylation, as an epigenetic phenomenon, may precede and regulate the expression of genes involved in transformation mechanisms that lead to leukemogenesis of hemopoietic cells. The genes involved mostly ...
Identification of MAPK phosphorylation sites and their role in the localization and activity of hypoxia-inducible factor-1α
(2006)
Hypoxia-inducible factor 1 (HIF-1) controls the expression of most genes induced by hypoxic conditions. Regulation of expression and activity of its inducible subunit, HIF-1α, involves several post-translational modifications. ...

Lincomycin resistance gene lnu(D) in Streptococcus uberis
(2008)
Streptococcus uberis UCN 42, isolated from a case of bovine mastitis, was intermediately resistant to lincomycin (MIC = 2 μg/ml) while remaining susceptible to clindamycin (MIC = 0.06 μg/ml) and erythromycin. A 1.1-kb SacI ...
Technical evaluation of in vivo abdominal fat and IMCL quantification using MRI and MRSI at 3 T
(2008)
Objectives: The objectives of this study were to develop protocols that measure abdominal fat and calf muscle lipids with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS), respectively, at 3 T and ...
A capillary zone electrophoresis method for determining N-acetylneuraminic acid in glycoproteins and blood sera
(2002)
A simple capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE) method for the determination of the content of the major sialic acid form N-acetylneuraminic acid (Neu5Ac) in glycoproteins was established. The present method utilizes a ...
