Changes in heart rate variability during the induction and decay of heat acclimation
(2014)We evaluated the changes in core temperature, heart rate, and heart rate variability (HRV) during the induction and decay of heat acclimation. Ten males (23 +/- A 3 years; 79.5 +/- A 3.5 kg; 15.2 +/- A 4.5 percent body ... -
Divergent Mass Selection for Leaf Chlorophyll Content Measured Using Chlorophyll Meter Readings in a Maize Composite Population
(2011)Leaf chlorophyll content is correlated with photosynthetic activity indicators and leaf nitrogen concentration. Three cycles of divergent mass selection for chlorophyll content were performed to estimate heritability, ... -
Effects of aluminum and moisture levels on aluminum bioaccumulation and protein content in the earthworm Octodrilus complanatus
(2013)Laboratory experiments were conducted to determine the effects of soil aluminum levels and moisture content on aluminum (Al) bioaccumulation and protein content in the earthworm (Octodrilus complanatus). The experimental ... -
Electrocatalytic activity of Vulcan-XC-72 supported Pd, Rh and PdxRhy toward HOR and ORR
(2015)Carbon-supported (Vulcan XC-72) Pd, Rh, and PdxRhy (20 wt%, x:y = 1:1, 3:1, 1:3) electrocatalysts are prepared according a modified pulse-microwave assisted polyol synthesis method and their electrocatalytic activity toward ... -
Factors influencing supercooling capacity of the koinobiont endoparasitoid Venturia canescens (Hymenoptera: Ichneumonidae)
(2014)BACKGROUND Venturia canescens is a parthenogenetic koinobiont endoparasitoid of several pyralid moth larvae that are major pests of stored products. Low temperatures have been extensively used to control stored-product ... -
Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase increases p53 levels in alloreactive human T cells, and both indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase and p53 suppress glucose uptake, glycolysis and proliferation
(2014)Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) suppresses adaptive immunity by inhibiting T-cell proliferation and altering glucose metabolism. The tumor suppressor p53 also alters these cellular processes with similar results. The ... -
The Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase Inhibitor 1-methyl-tryptophan Suppresses Mitochondrial Function, Induces Aerobic Glycolysis and Decreases Interleukin-10 Production in Human Lymphocytes
(2012)Background: Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) suppresses adaptive immunity. It is known that IDO induces T-cell differentiation to regulatory T-cells (Treg) through tryptophan depletion and/or kynurenine pathway products. ... -
Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenose (IDO) expression in lung cancer
(2007)Background: The expression of indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) by tumor cells has been considered as a major tumor immune escape mechanism. The aim of this study was to investigate the expression of IDO in lung cancer ... -
Inhibition of indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase in mixed lymphocyte reaction affects glucose influx and enzymes involved in aerobic glycolysis and glutaminolysis in alloreactive T-cells
(2013)Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) suppresses adaptive immunity. T-cell proliferation and differentiation to effector cells require increased glucose consumption, aerobic glycolysis and glutaminolysis. The effect of IDO on ... -
Intraurethral Lubricants: A Critical Literature Review and Recommendations
(2009)In current clinical practice, lidocaine gel is widely used as a local anesthetic lubricant before various forms of transurethral instrumentation. Over the past few years, the value of local anesthesia during urethral ... -
Older Firefighters Are Susceptible to Age-Related Impairments in Heat Dissipation
(2015)Purpose: The aging-induced reduction inwhole-body heat loss (H-L) capacity generates concerns regarding the continued participation of older workers in occupations such as firefighting. We compared H-L and change in body ... -
Plasma Indoleamine 2,3-Dioxygenase and Arginase Type I May Contribute to Decreased Blood T-Cell Count in Hemodialysis Patients
(2012)Background: Acquired immunity is impaired in hemodialysis (HD) patients, and decreased T-cell number may contribute. Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) and arginase type I (ARG) catabolize tryptophane and arginine, respectively, ... -
Suppression of humoral immune response to hepatitis B surface antigen vaccine in BALB/c mice by 1-methyl-tryptophan co-administration
(2011)Background and the purpose of the study: Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) suppresses adaptive immune response. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of the IDO inhibitor namely 1-methyl-DL-tryptophan ...
