The mitogenic effect of testosterone and 17 beta-estradiol on airway smooth muscle cells
(2011)
Airway disease distribution and/or severity exhibit sex differences suggesting that sex hormones are involved in the respiratory system physiology and pathophysiology. The implication of airway smooth muscle cells (ASMCs) ...
Recruitment of mitochondrial tRNA genes as auxiliary variability markers for both intra- and inter-species analysis: The paradigm of brown hare (Lepus europaeus)
(2008)
We sequenced and analyzed the mitochondrial tRNA(Thr) and tRNA(Pro) genes from brown hare (Lepus europaeus) individuals of different geographic distribution and we investigated the role of various nucleotide substitutions ...
Gilbert Syndrome as a Predisposing Factor for Cholelithiasis Risk in the Greek Adult Population
(2009)
We investigated the hypothesis that coinheritance of the common A(TA)(n)TAA promoter mutation at the UGT1A1 locus associated with Gilbert syndrome is a risk factor for gallstone formation in a homogeneous adult population, ...
Power, performance and area prediction of 3D ICs during early stage design exploration in 45nm
(2011)
In this work, the impact of across-chip temperature and power supply voltage variations, on performance predictions in 3D ICs, is investigated. To make this possible, a novel design flow is proposed to perform design ...
Use of Wild Bird Surveillance, Human Case Data and GIS Spatial Analysis for Predicting Spatial Distributions of West Nile Virus in Greece
(2014)
West Nile Virus (WNV) is the causative agent of a vector-borne, zoonotic disease with a worldwide distribution. Recent expansion and introduction of WNV into new areas, including southern Europe, has been associated with ...
TNFRSF13B/TACI Alterations in Greek Patients with Antibody Deficiencies
(2011)
TNFRSF13B/TACI defects have recently been associated with common variable immunodeficiency (CVID) pathogenesis. Considering that TNFRSF13B/TACI is very polymorphic and the frequency of its alterations may be different in ...
Association of TLR4-T399I Polymorphism with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease in Smokers
(2009)
Tobacco smoking has been considered the most important risk factor for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) development. However, not all smokers develop COPD and other environmental and genetic susceptibility ...
