Lipid peroxidation and antioxidative enzyme activity erythrocytes of workers occupationally exposed to aluminium
(Inst Medical Research & Occupational Health, Zagreb, 2008)
Current research indicates that lipid peroxidation could have a role in aluminium toxicity. The aim of this study was to asses lipid peroxidation and antioxidative enzyme activity in erythrocytes of workers occupationally ...
Somatostatin-14 alters the thymus size and relation among the thymocyte subpopulations in peripubertal rats
(Churchill Livingstone, Edinburgh, 2004)
It is well known that somatostatin exerts a wide range of effects in the body, and acts as an antocrine or paracrine factor in the thymus. However, it has not been investigated yet whether somatostatin alters the thymus ...
Exposure to forced swim stress alters morphofunctional characteristics of the rat thymus
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2005)
The aim of this study was to investigate whether chronic stress, induced by repeated daily swimming during 21 days, alters the morphofunctional parameters in the thymus of adult rats. Our results showed that chronic stress ...
The identification of a low molecular mass bacteriocin, rhamnosin A, produced by Lactobacillus rhamnosus strain 68
(Wiley, Hoboken, 2009)
Aims: This study focuses on the isolation and characterization of a peptide with bacteriocin-like properties isolated from Lactobacillus rhamnosus strain 68, previously identified by 16S rRNA gene sequencing and originating ...
Production of H2O2 and NO by rat peritoneal macrophages in response to gut commensal bacteria / Produkcija H2O2 i NO peritonealnih makrofaga pacova u odgovoru na crevne komensalne bakterije
(Univerzitet u Beogradu - Fakultet veterinarske medicine, Beograd, 2009)
The importance of commensal bacteria in the immune system development and its involvement in the etiopatogenetic mechanisms of complex multifactorial and multigenic diseases is well documented. The aim of the present study ...
Quantification of the thaumatin-like kiwi allergen by a monoclonal antibody-based ELISA
(Molecular Nutrition and Food Research, 2008)
Thaumatin-like proteins (TLPs) have been established as a new family of fruit and pollen allergens. The aim of this study was to develop a two-site ELISA for the quantification of the thaumatin-like kiwi allergen (Act d ...
Morphofunctional characteristics of the rat thymus exposed to forced swim stress
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2004)
Neonatal testosterone imprinting affects thymus development and leads to phenotypic rejuvenation and masculinization of the peripheral blood T-cell compartment in adult female rats
(Academic Press Inc Elsevier Science, San Diego, 2009)
Exposure of female rodents to testosterone in the critical neonatal period produces defeminization/masculinization of the hypothalamo-pituitary-gonadal (HPG) axis, i.e. neonatal androgenization and postpones axis maturation. ...
The effects of corticosterone and beta-endorphin on adherence, phagocytosis and hydrogen peroxide production of macrophages isolated from Dark Agouti rats exposed to acute stress
(Karger, Basel, 2008)
Background: Given that stressful experiences can change the reaction to a subsequent exposure to stress, we tested the in vitro effects of the stress mediator corticosterone and the opioid peptide beta-endorphin on the ...
Neuropeptide Y and its receptor subtypes specifically modulate rat peritoneal macrophage functions in vitro: counter regulation through Y1 and Y2/5 receptors
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2005)
It is well documented that neuropeptide Y (NPY) exerts a wide range of biological functions through at least five NPY Y receptor subtypes (Y1-Y5), but its immunological effects only recently came into focus. Using NPY ...
