Alkaline Phosphatase in Serum is a Marker of Human Toxocariasis
Background: The present study was carried out on the human population of Kashmir valley to evaluate the status of the biochemical parameters of infected population. Materials and Methods: Blood samples were collected from 514 individuals, 298 (57.97%) males and 216 (42.02%) females, 187 (36.38%) were found sero-positive for human toxocariasis. Results: Alkaline phosphatase level was found highe...
متن کاملProtein kinase activity profiling of postmortem human brain tissue.
BACKGROUND Identification of signal transduction pathways that are critically involved in Alzheimer's disease (AD) is essential for the development of disease-specific biomarkers and drug therapy. OBJECTIVE This study is aimed at identifying protein kinases and signaling pathways that are activated in AD pathology. METHODS Microarray-based kinome profiling was employed for the detection of ...
متن کاملBrain tissue: a viable postmortem toxicological specimen.
Brain tissue may be a valuable specimen in interpretation of postmortem toxicology. The protected and isolated position of the brain eliminates or at least attenuates many of the interpretive challenges with postmortem blood specimens. This study presents data for 30 drug and drug metabolites in cases submitted to the Sedgwick County Regional Forensic Science Center for autopsy examination from...
متن کاملNeuronal nuclei isolation from human postmortem brain tissue.
Neurons in the human brain become postmitotic largely during prenatal development, and thus maintain their nuclei throughout the full lifespan. However, little is known about changes in neuronal chromatin and nuclear organization during the course of development and aging, or in chronic neuropsychiatric disease. However, to date most chromatin and DNA based assays (other than FISH) lack single ...
متن کاملBrain tissue stiffness is a sensitive marker for acidosis
BACKGROUND Carbon dioxide overdose is frequently used to cull rodents for tissue harvesting. However, this treatment may lead to respiratory acidosis, which potentially could change the properties of the investigated tissue. NEW METHOD Mechanical tissue properties often change in pathological conditions and may thus offer a sensitive generic readout for changes in biological tissues with clin...
