Cortisol response to ACTH stimulation correlates with blood interleukin 6 concentration in healthy humans
(Bioscientifica Ltd, Bristol, 2008)
Objective: Interleukin 6(IL6) has the ability to influence each level of the hypothalamo-pituitary-adrenocortical (HPA) axis. The aim of the study was to test whether IL6 concentration correlates with the adrenal cortex ...
Neonatal castration affects intrathymic kinetics of T-cell differentiation and the spleen T-cell level
(Bioscientifica Ltd, Bristol, 2007)
To test putative interdependence in the ontogenesis of the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal and thymic-lymphatic axes, thymocyte differentiation and maturation was examined in neonatally castrated (Cx) adult rats. In the ...
Moving average procedures as an additional tool for real-time analytical quality control: challenges and opportunities of implementation in small-volume medical laboratories
(Croatian Society of Medical Biochemistry and Laboratory Medicine, 2022)
Introduction: Moving average (MA) is one possible way to use patient results for analytical quality control in medical laboratories. The aims of this study were to: (1) implement previously optimized MA procedures for 10 ...
Effects of Apnea, Obesity, and Statin Therapy on Proprotein Convertase Subtilisin/Kexin 9 Levels in Patients with Obstructive Sleep Apnea
(S. Karger AG Basel, 2022)
Objectives: Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a common condition closely related to obesity, insulin resistance, dyslipidemia, and cardiovascular disease. The aim of this study was to explore the possible relationship between ...
In vivo toxicity evaluation of two polyoxotungstates with potential antidiabetic activity using Wistar rats as a model system
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2020)
In this study, thein vivohypoglycemic effect of a donut-shaped polyanion salt (NH4)14[Na@P5W30O110]$31H2O{NaP5W30} and its Ag-containing derivative K14[Ag@P5W30O110]$22H2O$6KCl {AgP5W30}, as wellas their hepatotoxicity ...
Sex-specific remodeling of T-cell compartment with aging: Implications for rat susceptibility to central nervous system autoimmune diseases
(Elsevier B.V., 2021)
The incidence of multiple sclerosis (MS) and susceptibility of animals to experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE), the most commonly used experimental model of MS, decrease with aging. Generally, autoimmune diseases ...
Significant association of antiphospholipid antibodies and TNF-alpha: Marker of severe atherogenic profile of patients with type II diabetes mellitus without micro and/or macrovascular complications
(Academic Press Ltd- Elsevier Science Ltd, London, 2011)
Objective: In vitro, stimulation of monocytes with antiphospholipid (aPL) antibodies resulted in increased secretion of TNF-alpha, but association of aPL with features of diabetes mellitus is not clarified yet. Therefore, ...
Chiral ligand-exchange chromatography for diastereo-enantio separation of exametazime
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, Oxford, 2003)
The diastereo-enantio separation of isomeric mixtures of exametazime (HM-PAO) by liquid chromatography is described using an achiral sorbent (RP-18). A chiral eluent with the initial complex of Cu(II) and the optically ...
Interrelated Cathepsin S-Lowering and LDL Subclass Profile Improvements Induced by Atorvastatin in the Plasma of Stable Angina Patients
(Japan Atherosclerosis Soc, Tokyo, 2014)
Aim: We hypothesized that, in stable angina patients, atorvastatin therapy lowers the cathepsin S (CTSS) concentrations, as assessed non-invasively according to a plasma analysis. In addition, the low-density lipoprotein ...
β-Adrenoceptor Blockade Moderates Neuroinflammation in Male and Female EAE Rats and Abrogates Sexual Dimorphisms in the Major Neuroinflammatory Pathways by Being More Efficient in Males
(Springer, 2022)
Our previous studies showed more severe experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) in male compared with female adult rats, and moderating effect of propranolol-induced β-adrenoceptor blockade on EAE in females, the ...
