Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleSerum Ornithine Carbamoyltransferase Activity and Correlation with Fatty Liver in Dairy Cows with Displaced AbomasumKen Onda, Reiichiro Sato, Yosuke Sasaki et al.Ornithine Carbamoyltransferase (OCT) is a hepatocyte-specific enzyme; elevated serum activity indicates liver damage. Displaced abomasum frequently occurs around the time of parturition in dairy cattle and is associated with fatty liver. We analyzed serum OCT activities to investigate the relationship between displaced abomasum and fatty liver. Lactating Holstein cows, 75 clinically healthy and 22 with displaced abomasum, were used. Serum … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 13 Jul 2016 · 7,660 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleDevelopment of a Short-Term Canine Full-Thickness Skin Organ Culture Method under Serum-Free ConditionsFrancesca Abramo, Andrea Pirone, Carla Lenzi et al.Full-thickness canine skin organ culture models could provide an entirely new opportunity for studying wound healing, keratinization disorders and allergic skin diseases, all of which have high prevalence and severe impact on canine quality of life. Here we present a canine organ culture method for the short-term maintenance of full-thickness, adult, canine skin in serum-free medium and investigate the possibility … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 13 Jun 2016 · 7,380 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleImpact of Acute Bronchiolitis on Cardiac Functions and Serum microRNA-122 and 499Mona Abd El-Gelel Mohamed, Khalid Mahmoud ZayedBronchiolitis is an acute inflammatory injury of the bronchioles that is usually caused by a viral infection, most commonly Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV). This study aimed to verify the direct injurious effect of acute bronchiolitis on the myocardium and serum level of microRNA-122 and 499 (miR-122 and miR-499) of infected infants. Serum lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), creatine phosphokinase-isoenzyme MB (CK-MB) and … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 26 Jan 2016 · 7,250 accessesView PDFCite

JumaSixty women who had abortion were selected for this study. Serum was collected from the women. ELISA test was used to detect anti-Toxoplasma specific antibodies. Those women were divided into three groups according to the presence or absence of specific anti-Toxoplasma antibodies. These groups included the women with IgG (18), the women with IgM (14) and the women with both … …Current Research in Microbiology, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 8 Jan 2016 · 13,390 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThe Effect of two Different Culture Media on the Proliferation of Dental Pulp Stem Cells: Bovine Fetal Serum and Platelet LysateGiuseppe Cicero, Veena Nanda, Irene MartiniMesenchymal Stem Cells (MSCs) have been isolated from a variety of fetal and adult tissues and are considered an ideal source for cell-based therapy due to their unique properties such as multipotency and immunomodulatory functions. The aim of this work is to observe, analyze and investigate the morphology and proliferation of human dental pulp stem cells cultured in two different … …Current Research in Dentistry, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 17 Sep 2015 · 7,461 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleCopper and Zinc Serum Level in Patients Receiving HemodialysisRahim Raoofi, Hossein Hakimelahi, Mohammad Sadegh Sanie et al.Decreased kidney function can accumulate trace elements. Increased trace elements can have toxic features. On the other hand, studies are showing that concentration of some trace elements could be decreased in chronic kidney disease patients as well. Because these patients are at risk for alterations of trace elements, we measured serum level of zinc and copper trace elements in hemodialysis … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 4 · 18 Aug 2015 · 7,360 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleCALCITONIN GENE-RELATED PEPTIDE IN SERUM AFTER SPONTANEOUS SUBARACHNOID HEMORRHAGEKarl-Michael Schebesch, Elisabeth Bruendl Andreas Hochreiter, Judith Scheitzach et al.Endogenous Calcitonin Gene-Related Peptide (CGRP) stored in perivascular nerve fibers around the cerebral arteries mediates vasodilation and regulates cerebral blood flow under physiological conditions. Increased levels of CGRP have been continually reported in patients with migraine, but the role of CGRP in the pathophysiology of Subarachnoid Hemorrhage (SAH) has not yet been sufficiently evaluated. Over 10 days, serum was prospectively … …Neuroscience International, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 28 Jun 2014 · 7,588 accessesView PDFCite
