Nocturnal change of circulating intercellular adhesion molecule 1 levels in children with snoring
(2007)
Hypoxia promotes adherence of leukocytes to endothelial cells by inducing expression of adhesion molecules like intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM-1). Increased serum levels of circulating ICAM-1 (cICAM-1) have been ...
Meta-analysis of genome-wide association studies confirms a susceptibility locus for knee osteoarthritis on chromosome 7q22
(2011)
Objectives: Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most prevalent form of arthritis and accounts for substantial morbidity and disability, particularly in older people. It is characterised by changes in joint structure, including ...
Validation of the Augmentation Severity Rating Scale (ASRS): A multicentric, prospective study with levodopa on restless legs syndrome
(2007)
Background: Augmentation is the main complication during long-term dopaminergic treatment of restless legs syndrome (RLS) and reflects an overall increase in RLS severity. Its severity varies considerably from a minor ...
Primary biliary cirrhosis is characterized by IgG3 antibodies cross-reactive with the major mitochondrial autoepitope and its lactobacillus mimic
(2005)
The serological hallmark of primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC) is the presence of pyruvate dehydrogenase complex E2 subunit (PDC-E2) antimitochondrial antibodies (AMAs). Anti-PDC-E2 antibodies cross-react specifically with ...
Pulmonary function and circulating adhesion molecules in patients with diabetes mellitus
(2003)
Background: Lung function in diabetes has been reported in several studies with contradictory results. Diabetes mellitus increases expression of adhesion molecules through hyperglycemia. These molecules play an important ...
Multiple viral/self immunological cross-reactivity in liver kidney microsomal antibody positive hepatitis C virus-infected patients is associated with the possession of HLA B51
(2004)
Liver Kidney Microsomal autoantibody type 1(LKM1) directed to cytochrome P4502D6 (CYP2D6) characterises autoimmune hepatitis type-2 (AIH-2), but is also found in a proportion of chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infected ...

Objective: To assess the impact of a 3-month follow-up of a 6-month quasi-experimental study conducted to evaluate a web-based, tailored-feedback intervention promoting four key components of the Mediterranean diet. Methods: ...
Nuclear localization of cytokeratin 8 and the O-linked N -acetylglucosamine-containing Epitope H in epithelial cells of infiltrating ductal breast carcinomas: A combination of immunogold and EDTA regressive staining methods
(2006)
In a previous study, the authors have shown cytokeratin 8 (CK8) and epitope H ultrastructural localization in breast cancer cell nuclei. Epitope H contains an O-linked N -acetylglucosamine (O-GlcNAc) residue in a specific ...
