Insulin Alters the Permeability of Sheep Pleura
(2010)
Aim: Insulin promotes ion transportation across epithelia, mainly kidneys, leading to water and electrolyte abnormalities, possibly causing 'insulin oedema syndrome', which rarely presents as pleural effusion. Direct ...
Low glucose level and low pH alter the electrochemical function of human parietal pleura
(2007)
The aim of the present study was to investigate whether low glucose and pH level, which are usually measured in complicated pleural effusions, alter the electrochemical function of healthy human parietal pleura. Parietal ...
Rapid effects of 17β-estradiol and progesterone on sheep visceral and parietal pleurae via a nitric oxide pathway
(2002)
We investigated the effects of 17β-estradiol and progesterone on transepithelial electrical resistance (R TE) in sheep visceral and parietal pleurae. Specimens of intact pleurae from adult female sheep were used. The samples ...
Evidence for non genomic action of 17 beta estradiol on transepithelial resistance of human fetal membranes
(2011)
Background: The role of hormones in the transport mechanisms of human fetal membranes in pregnancy is unclear. Estrogens are essential hormones in pregnancy and they play an important role in the ion transport via membranes. ...
Rapid effects of 17 beta-estradiol and progesterone on sheep visceral and parietal pleurae via a nitric oxide pathway
(2002)
We investigated the effects of 17beta-estradiol and progesterone on transepithelial electrical resistance (R-TE) in sheep visceral and parietal pleurae. Specimens of intact pleurae from adult female sheep were used. The ...
Role of Histamine in Altering Fluid Recycling in Normal and Post-Traumatic Rabbit Peritoneum
(2014)
This study aims to investigate if histamine induces electrochemical alterations in the normal and post-traumatic peritoneum. Peritoneal rabbit specimens were obtained before surgery and 10 days post-operatively and were ...
IGF-1 alters the human parietal pleural electrochemical profile by inhibiting ion trans-cellular transportation after interaction with its receptor
(2013)
Objective: The effect of IGF-1 in the human pleural permeability and the underlying mechanisms involved were investigated. Design: Specimens from thoracic surgical patients were mounted in Ussing chambers. Solutions ...
Insulin-Induced Electrophysiology Changes in Human Pleura Are Mediated via Its Receptor
(2010)
Background. Insulin directly changes the sheep pleural electrophysiology. The aim of this study was to investigate whether insulin induces similar effects in human pleura, to clarify insulin receptor's involvement, and to ...
Pleural electrophysiology alterations in spontaneous pneumothorax patients
(2010)
Physiology changes of the pleura in spontaneous pneumothorax (SP) patients are not known with its etiology remaining unclear. The aim of the study was to investigate the pleural electrophysiology profile of SP patients and ...
Nonsteroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs Alter the Human Mesothelial Pleural Permeability via Ion Cellular Transportation by Inhibiting Prostaglandin Synthesis
(2012)
Background: Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are used in clinical practice as analgesics or anti-inflammatory drugs. Studies have implicated them in participating in permeability throughout various tissues ...
