In this study, the effects of nine alpha-1 adrenoceptor antagonists [prazosin, WB 4101 (WB), chloroethylclonidine (CEC), 5-methylurapidil (5-MU), BMY 7378 (BMY), MDL 73005EF (MDL73), MDL 72832 (MDL72), RS 17053 (RS) and SK&F 105854 (SKF)] were studied on contractile responses to phenylephrine (PE) of the endothelium-denuded dog aorta in vitro. All antagonists, except CEC, 5-MU and RS, produced ...

A study by Keam et al demonstrated that influenza vaccination, regardless of timing during 3-week cytotoxic chemotherapy cycles, may provide seroprotection. The majority of patients in this study were women with either breast or lung cancer. In an earlier study of patients with colorectal cancer, influenza vaccination was found to result in fewer cases of influenza, fewer cases of pneumonia, an...

saffron essential oil has a pleasant aroma and medicinal activities. however, it is sensible into the environmental condition. therefore, it should be protected against unwanted changes during storage or processing. encapsulation is introduced as a process by which liable materials are protected from unwanted changes. in the present study, different ratios (0:100, 25:75, 50:50, 75:25, and 100:0...

Amelioration of cardiovascular risk through a high intake of dietary fibre was originally highlighted by Ancel Keys and colleagues in the Journal of Nutrition in 1960 (Keys et al. 1960). More than 45 years later there is a growing body of evidence supporting the association between intake of whole grains and decreased incidence of fatal and nonfatal CHD (Liu et al. 1999; Steffen et al. 2003; Je...

Mutations in Amyloid-ß Precursor Protein (APP) and BRI2/ITM2b genes cause Familial Alzheimer and Danish Dementias (FAD/FDD), respectively. APP processing by BACE1, which is inhibited by BRI2, yields sAPPß and ß-CTF. ß-CTF is cleaved by gamma-secretase to produce Aß. A knock-in mouse model of FDD, called FDDKI, shows deficits in memory and synaptic plasticity, which can be attributed to sAPPß/ß-...

Objective of this study was to examine the impact of executive function (EF) on mathematical and attention problems in very preterm (gestational age ≤ 30 weeks) children. Participants were 200 very preterm (mean age 8.2 ± 2.5 years) and 230 term children (mean age 8.3 ± 2.3 years) without severe disabilities, born between 1996 and 2004. EFs assessed included verbal fluency, verbal working memor...
