Effect of Transforming Growth Factor-β (TGF-β) on proliferation of gastric epithelial cells in culture
Objective: Helicobacter pylori has a well-established role in the development of gastric cancer. In vitro studies reveal increased proliferation of the gastric mucosa in the presence of H. pylori infection. It has been also shown that production of some cytokines, such as interleukin-1 beta (IL-1b) is in...
متن کاملFlexor digitorum profundus tendon tension during finger manipulation.
Abstract The purpose of this study was to measure the tension in the flexor digitorum profundus (FDP) tendon in zone II and the digit angle during joint manipulations that replicate rehabilitation protocols. Eight FDP tendons from eight human cadavers were used in this study. The dynamic tension in zone II of the tendon and metacarpophalangeal (MCP) joint angle were measured in various wrist an...
متن کاملFlexor Digitorum Superficialis and Flexor Digitorum Profundus with separated sheaths
CASE DESCRIPTION A 25 years old man presented with a laceration on radial side of proximal phalanx of 4(th) finger (zone II flexor) which was due to cut with glass. CLINICAL FINDINGS The sheaths of Tendons of flexor digitorum superficialis and profundus were not the same and each tendon had a separate sheath. TREATMENT AND OUTCOME The tendons were reconstructed by modified Kessler sutures, ...
متن کاملHepatitis B virus X antigen promotes transforming growth factor-b1 (TGF-b1) activity by up-regulation of TGF-b1 and down-regulation of a2-macroglobulin
Received 12 September 2003 Accepted 10 October 2003 Hepatitis B virus (HBV) X antigen (HBxAg) may contribute to the development of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) by activation of signalling pathways such as NF-kB. To identify NF-kB target genes differentially expressed in HBxAg-positive compared to -negative cells, HepG2 cells consistently expressing HBxAg (HepG2X cells) were stably transfected...
متن کاملConservative management of transverse partial flexor digitorum profundus tendon lacerations in zone 2
MM Al-Qattan, HM Clarke, V Bowen. Conservative management of transverse partial flexor digitorum profundus tendon lacerations in zone 2. Can J Plast Surg 1995;3(3):157-160. The experience with six patients managed conservatively following transverse partial flexor digitorum profundus tendon lacerations in zone 2 is presented. Four patients who were mobilized using elastic traction experienced n...
