Abstract Female Corynorhinus mexicanus bats store sperm for three months. One cause of the death is action reactive oxygen species (ROS). Three antioxidant enzymes – superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), glutathione peroxidase (GPX) regulate REDOX state environment in which gametes are stored. The aim this study was to evaluate enzymatic activity female genital fluid during period storage...

BACKGROUND Dengue fever (DF) outbreaks present regionally specific epidemiological and clinical characteristics. In certain medium-sized cities (100 000-250 000 inhabitants) of São Paulo State, Brazil, and after reaching an incidence of 150 cases/100 000 inhabitants ("epidemiological threshold"), clinical diagnosis indicated dengue virus (DENV) infection.

It was confirmed by zymographic technique that 1 ml of normal human plasma possessed about 0. 2 IU of urokinase activity which is a high molecular weight form with a molecular weight of 53, 000. Plasma of an acute pancreatitis patient followed by disseminated intravascular coagulation possessed the same amount of urokinase activity as normal plasma, and was confirmed to be composed of two types...

The effect of FK506 and cyclosporin A (CsA) on the production of interleukin 6 (IL-6) in adherent monocytes was studied at a single-cell level by the avidinbiotin- peroxidase complex methods. The percentage of IL-6-producing monocytes increased when stimulated with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) at concentrations between 10 ng/ml and 10 mug/ml, in a dose dependent manner. Both FK506 and CsA enhanced ...

The effect of altering uterine space available to developing conceptuses on placental and endometrial protein secretion and endometrial 3 H-thymidine incorporation on Days 25 and 35 of gestation was tested. Gilts bred at estrus (Day 0) were laparotomized on Day 4, and the uterine horn ipsilateral to the ovary with the most ovulations was ligated midway between the uterine tip and uterine bifurc...
