Functional expression of mammalian opioid receptors in insect cells and high-throughput screening platforms for receptor ligand mimetics
(2005)Lepidopteran cell lines have been engineered to constitutively express high levels of mouse δ opioid receptors either alone or in combination with human Gα16 protein. Biochemical and pharmacological studies demonstrate ... -
Integrated management of hydroponic wastewater for complete water recycle and cyanobacteria cultivation using an electric conductivity-based tool
(2022)This work presents an integrated management process for hydroponic wastewater (HWW) reuse, by developing an electric conductivity-based tool that calculates recycled nutrient solutions' enrichment requirements and indicates ... -
Istaroxime Inhibits Motility and Down-Regulates Orai1 Expression, SOCE and FAK Phosphorylation in Prostate Cancer Cells
(2017)Background/Aims: Istaroxime is a validated inotropic Na + /K + ATPase inhibitor currently in development for the treatment of various cardiac conditions. Recent findings established that this steroidal drug exhibits potent ... -
Non-alcoholic steatohepatitis or autoimmune hepatitis? Sometimes a closer look under the surface is needed
(2020)Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is nowadays the most common liver disease worldwide. Autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) is a relatively rare disease of the liver characterised by female predominance, circulating ... -
Nutritional value and chemical composition of Greek artichoke genotypes
(2018)The nutritional value and chemical composition of various artichoke genotypes cultivated in Greece were evaluated. Significant differences were detected in water content, as well as in fat, ash, protein and carbohydrate ... -
Oxidative Stress in Hypovolemic Shock Alters Electrical and Mechanical Activities in Isolated Rabbit Heart Papillary Muscles
(2003)We investigated the electrophysiological and contractile responses of isolated rabbit heart papillary muscles, to plasma from the blood of rabbits suffering prolonged hypovolemic shock (SP) and compared the production of ... -
Pharmacological and Non-Pharmacological Agents versus Bovine Colostrum Supplementation for the Management of Bone Health Using an Osteoporosis-Induced Rat Model
(2022)Osteoporosis is defined by loss of bone mass and deteriorated bone microarchitecture. The present study compared the effects of available pharmacological and non-pharmacological agents for osteoporosis [alendronate (ALE) ... -
Phosphorus nutritional knowledge among dialysis health care providers and patients: A multicenter observational study
(2019)Background-aims: Phosphorus nutritional knowledge level of hemodialysis patients and renal nurses has been found to be low, while respective knowledge of nephrologists has not been studied yet. There are equivocal results ... -
Responses of sweet pepper (Capsicum annum L.) cultivated in a closed hydroponic system to variable calcium concentrations in the nutrient solution
(2021)BACKGROUND: The use of water containing calcium bicarbonate (Ca(HCO3)2) at excessively high concentrations in closed hydroponic crops can cause calcium ion (Ca2+) accumulation in the recycled nutrient solution (NS) and ... -
Reticuloendothelial system involvement in untreated sarcoidosis patients as assessed by 18F-FDG PET scanning
(2016)[No abstract available] -
Role of microbial diversity for sustainable pyrite oxidation control in acid and metalliferous drainage prevention
(2020)Acid and metalliferous drainage (AMD) remains a challenging issue for the mining sector. AMD management strategies have attempted to shift from treatment of acid leachates post-generation to more sustainable at-source ... -
Serum vitamin D levels in patients with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome and level changes after continuous positive airway pressure therapy
(2021)Purpose: Patients with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAS) have been found to exhibit lower serum vitamin D levels, even when the control groups are matched for confounding conditions. However, contradictory studies ... -
Simulating real-life exposures to uncover possible risks to human health: A proposed consensus for a novel methodological approach
(2017)In real life, consumers are exposed to complex mixtures of chemicals via food, water and commercial products consumption. Since risk assessment usually focuses on individual compounds, the current regulatory approach doesn't ... -
Simultaneous bilateral posteromedial tibial epiphysis stress fractures in a healthy young man: A case report
(2021)We present a compelling case of simultaneous, bilateral tibial stress fractures occurring in a unique epiphyseal and posterior location, with unclear aetiology. An overweight, Caucasian male in his late 20s developed ... -
Skeletal deformity of scoliosis in gilthead seabreams (Sparus aurata): Association with changes to calcium-phosphor hydroxyapatite salts and collagen fibers
(2019)The development of skeletal deformities in seabream farming affects fish growth, survival, and production costs. Collagen distribution in different fish tissues might be correlated with swimming behavior. This study ... -
A specific phospholipase C activity regulates phosphatidylinositol levels in lung surfactant of patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome
(2010)Lung surfactant (LS) is a lipid-rich material lining the inside of the lungs. It reduces surface tension at the liquid/air interface and thus, it confers protection of the alveoli from collapsing. The surfaceactive component ... -
Successive harvesting affects yield, chemical composition and antioxidant activity of Cichorium spinosum L.
(2017)In the present study, the effect of successive harvesting on yield, chemical composition and antioxidant activity of Cichorium spinosum plants was examined. C. spinosum plants were grown from seeds sown in seed trays ... -
Vitamin K for the treatment of cardiovascular disease in end-stage renal disease patients: Is there hope?
(2020)In Chronic Kidney Disease, vascular calcification (VC) is highly prevalent even at early stages and is gradually enhanced, along with disease progression to End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD). The calcification pattern in ... -
VItamin K In PEritonial DIAlysis (VIKIPEDIA): Rationale and study protocol for a randomized controlled trial
(2022)Vascular calcification (VC) is an active process, resulting from the disturbance of balance between inhibitors and promoters of calcification, in favor of the latter. Matrix Gla Protein, a powerful inhibitor of VC, needs ...
