Salmonellosis is a poultry industry and public health concern worldwide. Recently, Salmonella enterica serovar Heidelberg (SH) has been reported in broilers in Brazil. The effect of feeding a blend of three strains of Bacillus subtilis (PRO) was studied in broilers orally challenged (107 CFU/chick) or not with a SH isolated in south of Brazil (UFPR1 strain). Twelve male Cobb 500 broilers per pe...

BACKGROUND Soshiho-tang (SH; Chinese name, Xiao-Chai-Hu-Tang; Japanese name, Shosaiko-to) is a traditional Korean, Chinese, and Japanese medicine, which has been used to treat various conditions, including hepatitis, liver cirrhosis, and chronic and acute liver disease. SH consists of seven herbal components, of which Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi and Zingiber officinale Roscoe, are reported t...

In young (4-week-old) male and female spontaneously hypertensive (SH) rats, ethanol metabolic rate in vivo and hepatic alcohol dehydrogenase activity in vitro are high and not different in the two sexes. In males, ethanol metabolic rate falls markedly between 4 and 10 weeks of age, which coincides with the time of development of sexual maturity in the rat. Alcohol dehydrogenase activity is also...

PAPASH syndrome is a rare autoinflammatory consisting of four essential components: pyogenic arthritis (PA), pyoderma gangrenosum (PG), acne (A), and suppurative hidradenitis (SH). The true etiology unknown, yet genetic analysis has shown associations with PSTPIP1 mutations, which ultimately lead to elevations in interleukin-1 activity. Herein, we report case painful ulcers 47-year-old Syrian m...

Technological innovations, varying from ubiquitous computing, intelligent appliances, telecommunication, robotics, to wearable sensors, enable new Smart Home (SH) applications. More and more academic publications reporting on experiments on SH can be found. A comprehensive clustering of concepts and approaches is largely missing. Based on an extensive review of SH literature, this paper propose...

Mast cells have been suggested to play key roles in adipogenesis. We herein show that the expression of preadipocyte, but not adipocyte, marker genes increases in the white adipose tissue of mast cell-deficient (Kit(W-sh/W-sh) ) mice under both obese and non-obese conditions. In vitro culturing with adipogenic factors revealed increased adipocytes differentiated from the Kit(W-sh/W-sh) stromal ...

introduction: oxidative stress and neuroinflammation are involved in neurodegeneration procedure in parkinson’s disease. recently, neuroprotective potential of boswellia resin has been demonstrated. therefore, this study examined whether administration of boswellia resin would attenuate mpp+- induced neuronal death in sk-n-sh- cell line, a human dopaminergic neurons- in vitro. methods: boswelli...

We have developed a thiol-modified nanoporous silica material (SH-SAMMS) as an oral therapy for the prevention and treatment of heavy metal poisoning. SH-SAMMS has been reported to be highly efficient at capturing heavy metals in biological fluids and water. Herein, SH-SAMMS was examined for efficacy and safety in both in vitro and in vivo animal models for the oral detoxification of heavy meta...

Earlier studies on the role of sulfhydryl (-SH) groups in morphogenesis have indicated that in chick and amphibian embryos, an -SH-containing substance can act as an inducing stimulus in the action of the primary organizer. Thus, blocking -SH groups by chloroacetophenone (CAP) has specific developmental effects and the inducing capacity of the Hensen's node is affected (Lakshmi, 1962öf, b). Rev...
