Atypical presentation of varicella.-zoster virus encephalitis in an immunocompetent adult
(2008)BACKGROUND: Varicella-zoster virus encephalitis is uncommon, but not rare, in immunocompetent adults. Typically, patients develop stroke with hemiplegia caused by large vessel vasculopathy days to weeks after herpes zoster ... -
Autoantibodies to alpha-synuclein in inherited Parkinson's disease
(2007)Neurodegeneration in Parkinson's disease (PD) is accompanied by a local immune reaction in the affected brain regions. It is well established that alpha-synuclein is directly implicated in the pathogenesis of PD. Development ... -
Effect of CRH on NO bioavailability, ROS production and antioxidant defense systems in endothelial EAhy926 cells
(2010)Local or 'Immune' Corticotropin-Releasing Hormone (CRH) is secreted in peripheral tissues and plays a direct immunomodulatory role as an endocrine or paracrine mediator of inflammation. The present study was undertaken to ... -
Evolution of a rare vaccine-derived multirecombinant poliovirus
(2005)Recombination is one of the mechanisms by which viral genomes evolve. A vaccine-derived multirecombinant poliovirus strain was isolated from a 5-month-old child with vaccine-associated paralytic poliomyelitis after oral ... -
Molecular identification of enteroviruses responsible for an outbreak of aseptic meningitis; implications in clinical practice and epidemiology
(2004)An outbreak of aseptic meningitis was recorded in Greece during the year 2001. Detection of the clinical strains was achieved by performing reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) on RNA isolated from cell ... -
Noradrenaline storage function of species-specific protein bodies, markers of monoamine neurons in human locus coeruleus demonstrated by dopamine-beta-hydroxylase immunogold localization
(2004)Our histochemical and ultrastructural studies have identified, in human catecholamine locus coeruleus (LC) neurons, abundant and large spherical protein bodies (PB), containing histone-like, arginine-rich proteins, which ... -
Polymorphisms of the CD24 Gene Are Associated with Risk of Multiple Sclerosis: A Meta-Analysis
(2015)CD24 is a cell-surface protein mainly expressed in cells of the immune and central nervous system (CNS), cells that play a critical role in the development of multiple sclerosis (MS). In the current study, we investigated ... -
Proteomic Studies of Pediatric Medulloblastoma Tumors with 17p Deletion
(2015)CNS tumors are the leading cause of cancer-related death in children. Medulloblastoma is the commonest pediatric CNS malignancy, wherein, despite multimodal therapy with surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy, 5 year survival ... -
The role of nitric oxide in the object recognition memory
(2015)The novel object recognition task (NORT) assesses recognition memory in animals. It is a non-rewarded paradigm that it is based on spontaneous exploratory behavior in rodents. This procedure is widely used for testing the ... -
West Nile Virus State of the Art Report of MALWEST Project
(2013)During the last three years Greece is experiencing the emergence of West Nile virus (WNV) epidemics. Within this framework, an integrated surveillance and control programme (MALWEST project) with thirteen associate partners ...
