The MCP-1 and RANTES levels were measured in 20 multiple sclerosis patients before and after 1 year daily treatment with 20 mg of subcutaneously applied glatiramer acetate. The level of MCP-1 in serum from multiple scler...
Background: Better understanding of embryology, histopathology and genetics of dysraphic conditions have lead to an expansion of this concept to entities with a similar microscopic appearance (e.g. enterogenous cysts, co...
Prion diseases or transmissible spongiform encephalopathies (TSEs) are rare neurodegenerative disorders that can be acquired either by direct transmission, inherited through dominant mutations in the prion protein gene o...
To inspect the potential diagnostic role of in vivo 1H MRS lipid methylene CH2 to methyl CH3 signal ratio in differentiation of recurrent brain tumor from radiation injury.
Methods:
Two patients – one with documented...
Our previous studies indicated that Alzheimer's disease (AD) related amyloid beta peptide (Aβ) significantly altered muscarinic cholinergic receptor (mChR) signaling on the level of G protein regulated phospholipase C (P...
CCL2 (MCP-1) and CCL5 (RANTES) levels in the peripheral blood of multiple sclerosis patients treated with Glatiramer Acetate (Copaxone)
The MCP-1 and RANTES levels were measured in 20 multiple sclerosis patients before and after 1 year daily treatment with 20 mg of subcutaneously applied glatiramer acetate. The level of MCP-1 in serum from multiple scler...
Teratoma or enterogenous cyst? The histopathological and clinical dilemma in co-existing occult neural tube dysraphism
Background: Better understanding of embryology, histopathology and genetics of dysraphic conditions have lead to an expansion of this concept to entities with a similar microscopic appearance (e.g. enterogenous cysts, co...
Neurodegeneration and oxidative stress: prion disease results from loss of antioxidant defence
Prion diseases or transmissible spongiform encephalopathies (TSEs) are rare neurodegenerative disorders that can be acquired either by direct transmission, inherited through dominant mutations in the prion protein gene o...
Could lipid CH2/CH3 analysis by in vivo 1H MRS help in differentiation of tumor recurrence and post-radiation effects?
To inspect the potential diagnostic role of in vivo 1H MRS lipid methylene CH2 to methyl CH3 signal ratio in differentiation of recurrent brain tumor from radiation injury. Methods: Two patients – one with documented...
Alzheimer\'s disease related peptides affected cholinergic receptor mediated poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase activity in the hippocampus
Our previous studies indicated that Alzheimer's disease (AD) related amyloid beta peptide (Aβ) significantly altered muscarinic cholinergic receptor (mChR) signaling on the level of G protein regulated phospholipase C (P...
