Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEndothelial Dysfunction Induced by Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus and Fibrinolytic ActivityHussein F. SakrProblem statement: Type 2 diabetes mellitus is the world's largest systemic and metabolic disease. Endothelin (ET) was first described as a peptidergic endothelium-derived constricting factor. Endothelin-1 is one of the endothelial factors that is overexpressed in cases of endothelial dysfunction. The fibrinolytic system is present in plasma with the degradation of fibrin polymers in blood clots. It is a proteolytic … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 7,729 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Porcine Mitochondrial Transcription Factor a Gene: Molecular Characterization, Radiation Hybrid Mapping and Genetic Diversity among 12 Pig BreedsTanja Kunej, Xiao-Lin Wu, Jennifer J. Michal et al.Problem statement: Mitochondrial transcription factor A (TFAM) is a nucleus-encoded protein that is a key activator of mitochondrial transcription as well as a major participant in mitochondrial genome replication. Genomic characterization of the porcine TFAM gene is, therefore, necessary to determine its involvement in regulation of fat depots and meat quality traits in pigs. Approach: Genomic DNA sequence was determined … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 6,870 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Influence Of Isomerised Plant Oils With High Content Of Conjugated Dienes Of Linoleic Acids c9,t11 And t10,c12 On The Fat Reduction In The Carcass And Meat of LambB. Patkowska-Sokola, R. Bodkowski, W. Walisiewicz-Niedbalska, S. ZielinskiAn influence of isomerised poppy seed oil on lamb body fat and fat content in meat, and also fatty acids content was determined in the research. As a result of poppy seed oil isomerisation, the synthesis of conjugated dienes of linoleic acid of trans-10, cis-12 and cis-9, trans-11 configuration in amounts 34.3% and 32.2%, respectively, occurred. The enrichment of feed … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 7,225 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSurface Properties of Cell-treated Polyethylene TerephthalateBing Shi, Hong Liang, Thomas B. Kuhn, Lawrence K. DuffyThe materials used in artificial joints undergo degradation through fatigue and corrosive wear in human body. The lifetime for well-designed artificial joints like hip joints is at most 12 years and a patient will usually have two total joint replacements during his/her lifetime. Tissue engineering, an alternative to total joint implantation, is the replacement of damaged tissue with the tissue … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2006 · 6,704 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLeptin and Adiponectin in the HIV Associated Metabolic Syndrome: Physiologic and Therapeutic ImplicationsSotirios Tsiodras, Christos MantzorosLeptin and adiponectin represent two newly discovered adipose tissue derived hormones with important roles in energy homeostasis and insulin resistance. Their interrelations with the manifestations of the HIV associated metabolic syndrome and specific somatomorphic changes i.e. fat redistribution is reviewed. A synopsis of published studies is presented and the potential role of leptin and adiponectin is discussed. We have described … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2006 · 10,099 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIdentification of Long Non-coding RNAs Expressed During Early AdipogenesisRongkun Shen, Rachel A. Soeder, Henry D. Ophardt et al.Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are transcripts with a length of more than 200 nucleotides that lack protein-coding capacity. LncRNAs play important roles in the regulation of genes during many biological processes, development and disease progression, such as obesity. Obesity is an increasing health concern around the world. Although multiple studies linking lncRNAs and fully differentiated adipocytes have been published, the … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 19, Issue 4 · 30 Nov 2019 · 7,823 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMedical Service of RobotsRelly Victoria Virgil PetrescuToday, robots have not only penetrated to create microchips in electronics but also in medicine, where it helps to perform difficult operations, especially where precision is needed and the size is small and any human error could be fatal to the patient. Robots assist the doctor in heart, brain, kidney operations, not to mention bone implants and repair of damaged … …Journal of Mechatronics and Robotics, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 24 Apr 2019 · 7,542 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIdentification of Cancer: Mesothelioma’s Disease Using Logistic Regression and Association RuleAvishek ChoudhuryMalignant Pleural Mesothelioma (MPM) or malignant mesothelioma (MM) is an atypical, aggressive tumor that matures into cancer in the pleura, a stratum of tissue bordering the lungs. Diagnosis of MPM is difficult and it accounts for about seventy-five percent of all mesothelioma diagnosed yearly in the United States of America. Being a fatal disease, early identification of MPM is crucial … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 7 Dec 2018 · 7,224 accessesView PDFCite
Case ReportOpen accessIn the abstractImmunе-Mediated Myocarditis Associated with Leptospirosis in 6 Years Old Labrador RetrieverOleinikov Dmitrii, Letunoskaja AnnaAbout 6 years old, male Labrador retriever was presented for 10 days long weakness and fatigue. After diagnostic examinations, a preliminary diagnosis of Leptospirosis was suggested. Cardiologist consultation was advised. At admission, the dog was depressed, the visible mucosa was pale and capillary refilling time was slowed. Weak systolic murmur and rhythm disturbances were auscultated. Thoracic radiography revealed the accented … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 3 · 4 Oct 2018 · 7,090 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRegulation of Retinol Binding Protein 4 Expression and its Relation to Adipogenesis in Bovine AdipocytesMabrouk Ragab EL-Sabagh, Abd Eldaim Mabrouk AttiaAdipogenesis is of great importance in beef cattle. Recent findings indicate that glucose, a substrate for fatty acid biosynthesis and retinoic acid enhance adipogenesis in bovine intramuscular adipocytes. However, other recent findings indicate that Retinol-Binding Protein 4 (RBP4) interferes with glucose uptake and utilization by rodents’ adipocytes. In this study we examined the regulation of RBP4 expression and its relation … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 20 Sep 2012 · 8,399 accessesView PDFCite
