The impact of maternal nutrition on neurodevelopment and neonatal neuroprotection is a research topic with increasing interest. Maternal diet can also have deleterious effects on fetal brain development. Fetal exposure to alcohol is responsible for poor neonatal global development, and may increase
OBJECTIVE
To observe the changes of expression of α-synuclein (α-syn) and neuronal apoptosis in brain cortex of acute alcoholism rats and to explore the mechanism of the damage caused by ethanol to the neurons.
METHODS
The model of acute alcoholism rat was established by 50% alcohol gavage. The
We investigated the expression of angiogenesis and hypoxia markers in the adenohypophysis and neurohypophysis of patients who died from various acute or chronic diseases.
Paraffin-embedded material of pituitary glands (97 patients) was investigated immunohistochemically for vascular density (CD31)
BACKGROUND
The incidence of respiratory depression in patients who are chemically sedated in the emergency department (ED) is not well understood. As the drugs used for chemical restraint are respiratory depressants, improving respiratory monitoring practice in the ED may be warranted. The objective
Inhaled nitric oxide (iNO) is a selective pulmonary vasodilator with limited indications in adults. We present a patient with hypoxemia and right ventricular dysfunction due to submassive acute pulmonary emboli where iNO was used as a bridge to Bone marrow smears show vacuoles in the cytoplasm of haematopoietic cells due to alcoholism, liver cirrhosis and anemias different origin, for example in acute leukemias, in proportion to the decreased content of haemoglobin. The cell doubling rat in vivo is not obviously impaired by the
Adaptation to intermittent hypoxia in a hypobaric altitude chamber reduced two-fold ethanol consumption in chronically alcoholized rats and limited or eliminated abstinence syndrome. The effect of the adaptation was evident from prevented development of abstinence analgesia, enhanced alcohol
Adaptation to intermittent hypoxia in the hypobaric altitude chamber showed a two-fold decrease in ethanol consumption in chronically alcoholized rats and attenuated or arrested the withdrawal syndrome. The impact of adaptation to the withdrawal syndrome was that it prevented the development of
Angiogenesis is active in localised laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma. We assessed relative messenger RNA (mRNA) and immunohistochemical (IHC) expression of Vascular Endothelial Growth Factors (VEGF) A, B, C, their receptors VEGFR1, 2, 3, Neuropilins 1, 2 (NRP1, 2) and Hypoxia-Inducible Factor 1A
BACKGROUND
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and obesity have become two of the main threats to public health in the Western world. In addition, obesity is the most important determinant of the sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome (SAHS), a condition that adversely affects glucose metabolism. However, it is
Since alcoholism is a major health problem, mechanisms responsible for various forms of alcoholic liver disease (e.g., fatty liver, alcoholic hepatitis, and cirrhosis) require elucidation. Knowledge of these mechanisms is needed to provide a sound framework to treat alcoholic liver disease, to
OBJECTIVE
Disulfiram is an aldehyde dehydrogenase inhibitor that was used to treat alcoholism and showed anticancer activity, but its anticancer mechanism remains unclear. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of disulfiram on the hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF)-driven tumor adaptation
In order to test the hypothesis that Wernicke's encephalopathy is of topographic rather than of pathogenetic specificity we examined the brains of 49 patients without any evidence of chronic alcoholism. They had died at least four days after an event of severe hypoxia-ischemia. They all showed
ARDS is a severe form of lung injury characterized by increased permeability of the alveolar capillary membrane, diffuse alveolar damage, the accumulation of proteinaceous interstitial and intra-alveolar edema, and the presence of hyaline membranes. These pathological changes are accompanied by
Alcohol is detrimental to the developing brain and remains the leading cause of mental retardation in developed countries. The mechanism of alcohol brain damage remains elusive. Studies of neurological problems in adults have focused on alcohol's cerebrovascular effects, because alcoholism is a
