Accumulation of serum protein has been demonstrated in injured brain cells following vasogenic brain edema. The present study was conducted to test whether this phenomenon is also observed in apoptotic cells as well as in necrotic cells. Apoptotic cell death has been implicated in a variety of brain
The anthrax edema toxin (ET) of Bacillus anthracis is composed of the receptor-binding component protective antigen (PA) and of the adenylyl cyclase catalytic moiety, edema factor (EF). Uptake of ET into cells raises intracellular concentrations of the secondary messenger cyclic AMP, thereby
By using biotin-labeled proteoglycan core protein, hyaluronan (hyaluronic acid; HA) was visualized in rat heart grafts at different times (2, 4, and 6 d) after transplantation. In normal, nontransplanted hearts HA was present in the adventitia of arteries and veins and in the myocardial interstitial
By using biotin-labeled proteoglycan core protein and an avidin-enzyme system, hyaluronic acid (HA) was visualized in rat kidney. In the normal kidney, HA was localized in the extracellular space of the inner medulla and increased markedly towards the papillary tip. No staining for HA was seen in
Hyaluronic acid (HA) is an important stabilizing consistuent of the loose connective tissue and regulates water homeostasis. Thus, excessive accumulation of HA in interstitial tissue immobilizes water and may thereby contribute to interstitial tissue edema. By the use of biotin labelled core protein
Apoptosis has been known to contribute to neuronal death following a variety of brain insults. However, the role of vasogenic brain edema in neuronal apoptosis is unknown. We studied the temporal pattern of brain edema and neuronal apoptosis following cold injury. Cold injury-induced brain edema,
Glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) was applied topically on the brain surface immediately after permanent middle cerebral artery (MCA) occlusion in rats. In contrast to the cases treated with vehicle, a formation of brain edema was significantly reduced at one day by the treatment
Glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) was applied topically on the brain surface of reperfused rat brain after 90 min of transient middle cerebral artery occlusion. In contrast to the cases treated with vehicle, a formation of brain edema was greatly reduced at 2 days by the treatment
This study of 36 rats with rat colon adenocarcinoma transplants was carried out to investigate the efficacy of a new method of whole blood immunoadsorption (WBIA) in removing biotinylated monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) directly from unseparated blood, in order to increase 'the tumor/normal-tissue
OBJECTIVE
To assess the behavior of the immunoexpression of protein p53 in Reinke's edema and laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma.
METHODS
retrospective.
METHODS
we recovered the histological paraffin blocks of patients who were subjected to Reinke's edema and laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma surgery
Reinke's edema is chronic laryngeal disease in which the superficial layer of the lamina propria is expanded by thick mucus, giving it a gelatin aspect. The disease is directly related to smoking and more frequent in women, who end up having a lower tone of voice. Its histological characteristics
OBJECTIVE
To investigate the clinical, genetic, and neuroradiologic data of biotin-responsive basal ganglia disease (BBGD) and clarify the disease spectrum.
METHODS
We first investigated all patients attending our Division of Pediatric Neurology with a genetically proven diagnosis of BBGD between
Small rodents, mice in particular, have been widely used for genetic manipulation because of the extensive knowledge in development, embryology and other molecular aspects of this species. However, the use of mice for neurobiology research in the area of brain edema and neuronal injury has not been
OBJECTIVE
Hyperglycemia has a deleterious effect on brain ischemia. However, the effect of hyperglycemia in intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is not well known. We investigated the effect of hyperglycemia on the development of brain edema and perihematomal cell death in ICH.
METHODS
Hyperglycemia was
Age related macular degeneration (AMD) is one of the leading causes of visual loss and is responsible for approximately 9% of global blindness. It is a progressive eye disorder seen in elderly people (>65 years) mainly affecting the macula. Lutein, a carotenoid, is an antioxidant, and has shown
