Reshaping of T-lymphocyte compartment in adult prepubertaly ovariectomised rats: A putative role for progesterone deficiency
(Elsevier Gmbh, Munich, 2014)
This study explores the role of ovarian hormones in the phenotypic shaping of peripheral T-cell pool over the reproductive lifespan of rats. For this purpose, 2-month-old prepubertally ovariectomised (Ox) rats, showing ...
Defining the Structure and Receptor Binding Domain of the Leaderless Bacteriocin LsbB
(Amer Soc Biochemistry Molecular Biology Inc, Bethesda, 2014)
Background: The bacteriocin LsbB targets a membrane-bound zinc-dependent peptidase. Results: The structure of LsbB was resolved by NMR. The C-terminal unstructured domains of LsbB and several other related bacteriocins ...
Characterization of lactic acid bacteria isolated from artisanal Travnik young cheeses, sweet creams and sweet kajmaks over four seasons
(Academic Press Ltd- Elsevier Science Ltd, London, 2014)
The aim of this study was to investigate the composition of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) in autochthonous young cheeses, sweet creams and sweet kajmaks produced in the Vlasic mountain region of central Bosnia and Herzegovina ...
Exopolysaccharide-producing Bifidobacterium animalis subsp lactis strains and their polymers elicit different responses on immune cells from blood and gut associated lymphoid tissue
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, Oxford, 2014)
The effect of exopolysaccharide (EPS) producing bifidobacteria, and the EPS derived thereof, on the modulation of immune response was evaluated. Cells isolated from gut associated lymphoid tissue (GALT) and from peripheral ...
Effects of catecholamines on thymocyte apoptosis and proliferation depend on thymocyte microenvironment
(Elsevier, Amsterdam, 2014)
The present study, through quantification of tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) expression and catecholamine (CA) content in the presence and in the absence of alpha-methyl-p-tyrosine (AMPT), a TH inhibitor, in adult thymic organ ...
Peritoneal exudate cells from long-lived rats exhibit increased IL-10/IL-1 beta expression ratio and preserved NO/urea ratio following LPS-stimulation in vitro
(Springer, Dordrecht, 2014)
In humans, usual aging, differently from successful aging, is associated with deregulation of proinflammatory/anti-inflammatory cytokine balance. The corresponding data from rat studies are limited. Therefore, we examined ...
Aging oppositely affects TNF-alpha and IL-10 production by macrophages from different rat strains
(Springer, New York, 2014)
Altered functions of macrophages with aging contribute to impairment of both innate and adaptive immunity in the elderly. The present study aimed to examine strain specificity of age-related changes in the phenotypic and ...
Aggregation Factor as an Inhibitor of Bacterial Binding to Gut Mucosa
(Springer, New York, 2014)
Modern research in the area of probiotics is largely devoted to discovering factors that promote the adherence of probiotic candidates to host mucosal surfaces. The aim of the present study was to test the role of aggregation ...
Identification and characterization of lactic acid bacteria isolated from artisanal white brined Golija cows' milk cheeses
(Srpsko biološko društvo, Beograd, i dr., 2014)
The aim of this study was to identify and characterize the lactic acid bacteria (LAB) of artisanal Golija raw and cooked cows' milk cheeses traditionally manufactured without the addition of starter culture. A total of 188 ...
