Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIntroduction of Three Complementary Technologies into Clinical Medicine: Development of New Diagnostic and Prognostic ParametersGernot P. Tilz, Marco Wiltgen, Ulrike Demel et al.Molecular medicine leads us to understand some diseases at the molecular level. Examples are the analysis of immune complexes and receptor - anti receptor compounds used in clinical medicine. Structural changes of some serum proteins occur in inflammation, neoplasie and autoimmunity. The detection and analysis of such structural modifications may offer a new field for the diagnosis, prognosis and therapy … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2006 · 6,956 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssociation Between Circulating Early Endothelial Progenitors and CD4+CD25+ Regulatory T Cells: A Possible Cross-talk between Immunity and Angiogenesis?Shmuel Schwartzenberg, Adi Mor, Galia Luboshits et al.Regulatory T-cells (Treg) are a recently defined subset of CD4+ cells that can suppress inflammation and induce tolerance. Phenotypically, T-regs are characterized by a high level of expression of the IL-2 receptor alpha chain, CD25. Endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) can transform into mature endothelial cells and promote vessel formation by inducing postnatal angiogenesis and vasculogenesis. Herein, we tested the hypothesis … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2005 · 6,902 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBotulinum Toxin as a Novel Addition to Anti-Arthritis ArmamentariumHamid Namazi, Zahra MajdOsteoarthritis is the most common joint disease and is among the most frequent health problems for middle aged and older people. There is strong evidence that proinflammatory cytokines contribute to cartilage degradation in osteoarthritis. Interleukin-1 is the prototypical proinflammatory cytokine implicated in the pathogenesis of cartilage matrix degeneration. Results from studies in animal models provide stronger evidence implicating a role … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 6,775 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDietary supplementation with Cyperus esculentus L (tiger nut) tubers attenuated atherosclerotic lesion in apolipoprotein E knockout mouse associated with inhibition of inflammatory cell responsesMohamed L. Salem, Mohsen Zommara, K. ImaizumiAtherosclerosis is a pathological process, where recruitment of mononuclear cells results in the growth of fibro-fatty plaques. Apolipoprotein E (ApoE) is a legend for the uptake of lipoproteins, and deficiency of ApoE leads to the accumulation of low-density lipoprotein. Utilizing ApoE-/- mouse, which spontaneously develop atherosclerosis on low-fat chow diets, the present study showed that feeding these mice on a … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2005 · 10,471 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInvestigation of Inflammatory and Oxidative Stress Biomarkers in Multi Vessels Minimally Invasive Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Surgery Versus Off-Pump Coronary Artery Bypass GraftMohammed Farouk Abdel-Hafez, Ahmed El-Minshawy, Ahmed M. Taha et al.Traditional Coronary Artery Bypass Graft (CABG) is currently among of the chief methods in dealing with patients suffering from atherosclerotic coronary heart disease. The current study aimed to measure and compare the levels of proinflammatory cytokines and oxidative stress marker in patients who underwent multivessels Minimally Invasive Coronary Artery Bypass Graft Surgery (MICS– CABG) versus off-pump Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 17, Issue 3 · 29 Sep 2021 · 6,170 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractReview of the Progress in Corneal Neovascularization Animal ModelsShuci Tian, Shurong Wang, Yuxi He et al.Corneal Neovascularization (CNV), the extensive growth of blood vessels from conjunctiva into the cornea. It is a sight-threatening condition that can decreases eyesight and even leads to blindness. The pathologic growth of blood vessels impairs light transmission, promotes scar formation and causes inflammations, which harm visual acuity. Abnormal angiogenesis plays an important role in the process of CNV, which may … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 28 Nov 2015 · 8,421 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPHENOTYPING, VIRULENCE CHARACTERISTICS OF AEROMONAS SPECIES AND THE EFFECTS OF ESSENTIAL PLANT OILS AS ANTIMICROBIAL AGENTS AGAINST PATHOGENIC ISOLATES FROM DIFFERENT SOURCESAhmed M.A. Mansour, Hoda M. Zaki, Nibal A. Hassan, Nihad A.M. El-NasharAeromonas species are increasingly recognized as enteric pathogens. Faecal samples from 20 cow, 45 sheep; 60 goat and 60 camels were examined for the presence of Aeromonas species, which was also sought in the available drinking water (55 well water and 52 drinking chlorinated tap water were also examined). Aeromonas species was isolated more frequently from goats (21.7%) than from … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 18 Jan 2014 · 8,020 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTAURINE ATTENUATES HEPATIC AND CARDIAC DAMAGE AND APOPTOSIS IN RABBITS FED A HIGH-FAT DIETGamal Hasan Abdel-RahmanA hypercholesterolemia diet has been associated with the hepatic and cardiac abnormalities and the pathological changes. The present work was designed to investigate the histological and immunohistochemical changes in the liver and heart of rabbits when fed high fat diet and the possible protective role of an antioxidant "taurine". Twenty-four male white New Zealand rabbits were divided into four groups, … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 28 Dec 2013 · 6,931 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractConcentration-Effect, Incidence and Mechanism of Nevirapine HepatotoxicityAdikwu Elias, Brambaifa NelsonNevirapine is a dipyridozepinone non nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor approved for use in HIV-infected patients. Its efficacy has been well demonstrated in numerous clinical trials. It has activity against HIV-1 but does not have significant activity against HIV-2 or other retroviruses. Nevirapine is used as one of the components of highly active antiretroviral therapy in HIV patients and in the … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 19 Apr 2013 · 8,156 accessesView PDFCite
