Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOverview of Atherosclerotic Plaque: From Formation to ComplicationAnastasia Vladimirovna Poznyak, Varvara Alexandrovna Orekhova, Vasily Nikolaevich Sukhorukov et al.Atherosclerosis is a serious worldwide health problem. The pathogenesis of this disease is complex and includes a multilevel interaction of such processes as inflammation, endothelial dysfunction, mitochondrial dysfunction, and multiple modifications of lipid particles. With the increase in life expectancy, mankind is more and more often faced with the unpleasant consequences of atherosclerosis. Atherosclerosis is a precursor to serious health … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 24, Issue 3 · 6 Mar 2024 · 5,395 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProduction of an Achillea millefolium (Yarrow) Toothpaste to Combat Gum and Tooth PainMunashe K. F. Chakamanga, Ashley Kumalo K, Dirk Hamadziripi MGum inflammation also known as gingivitis is primarily caused by the accumulation of dental plaque that forms on teeth. The inflammation triggers pain in the gums and surrounding tissues due to increased blood flow and immune activity aimed at combating the bacterial infection. Thus, this study was carried out to investigate the efficacy of Yarrow-based toothpaste in reducing gum inflammation. … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 4 · 9 Oct 2026 · 440 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssessing the Comparative Effectiveness of Ensemble CatBoost Versus XGBoost Models in Predicting Heart Disease OutcomesManivannan D., G. Gifta Jerith, G. Chandra Sekhar et al.Cardiovascular Diseases (CVDs) are a common form of heart disease that remains a significant global cause of mortality, responsible for more than 30% of all fatalities. Without intervention, the global fatality count is projected to reach 22 million by 2030. Arterial plaque buildup may impede blood flow, potentially causing heart attacks or strokes. A combination of risk causes, including lack … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 22, Issue 4 · 4 May 2026 · 1,552 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAdvancing Stroke Lesion Segmentation With U-Net Variants: Classical, Transfer Learning, and MRI Sequence-Specific Customized ApproachesSonia Flora Panesar, Amit P. GanatraIschemic stroke, caused by restricted cerebral blood flow, is a leading cause of death and disability worldwide. Accurate segmentation of stroke lesions in MRI is essential for timely diagnosis but remains labor-intensive when done manually. This study presents a comparative evaluation of three U-Net variants for automated ischemic stroke lesion segmentation using the ISLES 2022 dataset: (1) Classical U-Net with … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 22, Issue 2 · 27 Feb 2026 · 1,797 accessesView PDFCite
Literature ReviewOpen accessIn the abstractThe Benefits of Selected Nutritional Compounds Towards Atherosclerosis ManagementAnastasia Vladimirovna Poznyak, Mariam Bagheri Ekta, Vasily Nikolaevich Sukhorukov et al.Globally, the prevalence of obesity, type 2 diabetes, and metabolic syndrome is steadily rising, potentially giving rise to the most extensive non-communicable health crisis ever recorded blocking the flow are able to break and cause a blood clot. The possible consequence is a significant increase in atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease rate. The atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease largely depends on modifiable factors, however, … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 24, Issue 1 · 2 Nov 2023 · 5,036 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractChronic Mental Stress Induces Reversible Reduction of Natural Killer Cells and CD56dim SubpopulationManar M. IsmailGenerally, studying to be a health care provider is a stressful and demanding field and the students have to face many stressors that may affect their general health status including the immune system. This work aimed at studying the effect of prolonged naturalistic life-stress exposure on the percentage of peripheral blood T-lymphocytes and Natural Killer (NK) cells in female laboratory … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 13, Issue 3 · 30 Aug 2017 · 7,794 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Short Term in vitro Stress Hormone Exposure on Regulatory T Cell Number and Function in AsthmaKristina E. Rehm, Gailen D. Marshall, Jr.Asthma is characterized by alterations in the immune system, including regulatory T cells (Treg). Further alterations in Treg numbers and/or function caused by stress hormones may be a contributing factor in asthma pathogenesis. We compared Treg populations and the effects of Dexamethasone (DEX, a laboratory analog of cortisol) on Treg cell number and function in patients with asthma and a … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 24 Apr 2015 · 6,610 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCLINICAL EXPERIENCE OF CANCER IMMUNOTHERAPY INTEGRATED WITH OLEIC ACID COMPLEXED WITH DE-GLYCOSYLATED VITAMIN D BINDING PROTEINEmma Ward, Rodney Smith, Jacopo J.V. Branca et al.Proteins highly represented in milk such as α-lactalbumin and lactoferrin bind Oleic Acid (OA) to form complexes with selective anti-tumor activity. A protein present in milk, colostrum and blood, vitamin D binding protein is the precursor of a potent Macrophage Activating Factor (GcMAF) and in analogy with other OA-protein complexes, we proposed that OA-GcMAF could demonstrate a greater immunotherapeutic activity … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 8 Mar 2014 · 13,193 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractElevated Th17 and IL-23 in Hypertensive Patients with Acutly Increased Blood PressureJunxian Wang, Jianying Chen, Can Chen et al.Problem statement: Many severe cardiovascular complications such as stroke and heart attack can result from acutely increased blood pressure in patients with hypertension. The underlying mechanisms remain unclear despite of extensive study. To characterize the inflammatory mechanisms in hypertensive patients with acute blood pressure increase, we tested circulating Th17 levels, IL-23R expression and plasma levels of IL-17 and IL-23 in … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 21 May 2012 · 7,920 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFluctuation of Brain Tissue Oxygen Partial Pressure: A Biochemical Landmark in the Arctic Ground Squirrel's Spontaneous ArousalYi Long Ma, Shu Fen Wu, Lawrence K. DuffyHibernation in the Arctic ground Squirrel (AGS) is a regulated, adaptive response to arctic environmental conditions. Problem statement: Regional brain Blood Flow (rCBF) has been observed to increase dramatically during arousal in hibernators. However, the real time dynamic change in PtO2 during arousal has not been studied, we hypothesized that PtO2 is Interdependent of Tbrain and a key component in … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 1 Feb 2012 · 7,605 accessesView PDFCite
