Genetic characterization of adrenocortical tumors
(1999-01-08)
Adrenocortical cancer is a rare tumor form. However, adrenal tumors are today often found incidentally when using imaging techniques on the upper abdomen and should then be investigated. With the advance in molecular ...
Integrated assessment of environmental and human health risks of antibiotic residues and resistance for environmental and health policy
(2021-04-27)
Background: Antibiotic resistance is a global health crisis and a serious threat to progress in achieving the Sustainable Development Goals. This requires a One Health response that recognises the link between human and ...
Synthetic pulmonary surfactant : effects of surfactant proteins B and C and their analogues
(2010-08-19)
Pulmonary surfactant is a lipid/protein mixture lining the air-liquid
interface in the alveoli. Its main function is to lower surface tension
during respiration and thereby prevent alveolar collapse at
end-expiration. ...
On innate behaviors : focus on parental behavior and aggression
(2018-10-26)
The neural substrates orchestrating a number of social behaviors, including parental behavior and aggression, are known to exist in the hypothalamus. Through the control of the pituitary gland, the hypothalamus regulates ...
Effects of chemotherapy on bone growth and chondrocyte cell death signaling
(2010-11-01)
of dexamethasone-induced growth retardation. By investigating these mechanisms, we found that dexamethasone activates caspase-8, -9 and -3 in proliferative chondrocytes. In addition, the Akt-PI3K signaling pathway, which plays a key role in the survival...
Genetic studies in familial non-BRCA breast cancer
(2017-11-09)
an overrepresentation of endometrial cancer in the non-BRCA families with a 6.36 % proportion (CI 4.67–8.2) compared to the proportion in the general population in the reference years 1970 (3.07 %) and 2010 (2.64 %). The main finding of the study was the strong support...
Chemokine receptor expression and function in experimental autoimmune neuroinflammation
(2007-05-25)
Neuroinflammatory lesions in the central nervous system (CNS) are characterized by the presence of leukocytes, mainly monocytes/macrophages, derived from the systemic compartment. We believe CC inflammatory chemokine ...
Delayed babbling at 10 months : observation, detection and a two-year follow-up
(2021-11-24)
Babbling variables that can predict later expressive language, such as presence and onset of canonical babbling (CB), presence of anterior stops and consonant inventory, are suitable targets for a CB screening and the ...
Visualizing the dynamic interplay between the host and bacterial pathogen : a real-time study of renal infection
(2007-05-10)
The human body is a complex entity capable of handling a variety of
pathogenic challenges without developing disease symptoms. Sometimes,
however, the pathogens are superior and the host immune system is unable
to clear ...
Premenstrual disorders : risk factors, comorbidities and health impact
(2022-05-09)
Premenstrual disorders (PMDs) are characterized by affective and physical symptoms that cyclically occur 7-10 days before the menstruation and affect millions of women of reproductive age worldwide. Despite its commonness, ...
