Evaluation of genotoxic effects of fumagillin by cytogenetic tests in vivo
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2007)
Fumagillin is a naturally secreted antibiotic of the fungus Aspergillus fumigates. It is used in veterinary medicine against microsporidiosis of bees and fish. In this study, the genotoxicity of fumagillin (in the form of ...
Is the time dimension of the cell cycle re-entry in AD regulated by centromere cohesion dynamics?
(Bioscience Hypotheses, 2008)
Chromosomal involvement is a legitimate, yet not well understood, feature of Alzheimer disease (AD). Firstly, AD affects more women than men. Secondly, the amyloid-β protein precursor genetic mutations, responsible for a ...
AFCF and clinoptilolite use in reduction of Cs-137 deposition in several days' contaminated broiler chicks
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2007)
The objective of this study was to investigate the binding efficiency of AFCF and clinoptilolite, mixed to the feed and administered orally using gastric tube to chronically Cs-137 alimentary contaminated broiler chicks. ...
Low-oxygen and high-carbon-dioxide atmosphere improves the conservation of hematopoietic progenitors in hypothermia
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2009)
BACKGROUND: During short-term storage of hematopoietic cells (HCs) at 4 degrees C a substantial decline in number and in functional capacity of progenitors occurs after 3 days. We hypothesized that physiologic O-2 and CO2 ...
Variability in germination and in temperature and storage resistance among Paenibacillus larvae genotypes
(Elsevier Science Bv, Amsterdam, 2008)
There are several methods for cultivation of Paenibacillus larvae, the causative agent of American foulbrood (AFB) in honey bees. Protocols for detection of sub-clinical levels of the bacterium from honey and bee samples ...
Identification and antimicrobial susceptibility testing of Staphylococcus vitulinus by the BD Phoenix automated microbiology system
(Springer, New York, 2008)
This study evaluated the performance of the BD Phoenix system for the identification (ID) and antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST) of Staphylococcus vitulinus. Of the 10 S. vitulinus isolates included in the study, ...
Xylazine, an alpha(2)-adrenergic agonist, induces apoptosis of rat thymocytes and a thymocyte hybridoma line in vitro
(Prous Science, Sau-Thomson Reuters, Barcelona, 2003)
In our previous experiments, we demonstrated that xylazine, an alpha(2)-adrenergic agonist, stimulated proliferation of thymocytes triggered by concanavalin A. In contrast, higher concentrations of xylazine were inhibitory. ...
Comparison of anti-inflammatory, analgesic and ulcerogenic activity of flurbiprofen and its no-releasing derivative NCX2216 in rats
(Elsevier Ireland Ltd, Clare, 2005)
Gastrotoxic effects of NSAIDs and the role of no-donors in gastroprotection
(Elsevier Ireland Ltd, Clare, 2005)
The effect of the antioxidant catalase on oestrogens, triiodothyronine, and noradrenaline in the Comet assay.
(Teratogenesis, carcinogenesis, and mutagenesis, 2003)
Metabolic changes in the phenolic groups of steroidal oestrogens accompanied by the generation of quinones and reactive oxygen species underlie their mutagenic effects. Although nonsteroidal hormones and related compounds ...
