We examined the selective effects of interleukin (IL-5) in regulating the maturational expression of surface adhesion molecules on human eosinophils and adhesion to endothelial cells during eosinophiiopolesis in vitro. Expression of the beta 2 integrins (CD11/CD18) and the beta 1 integrin, VLA-4 (CD49d/ CD29), was assessed during development in culture with IL-3, IL-5, and granulocyte-macrophag...

We revisit the calculation of chiral anomalies for global and gauge symmetries in framework covariant derivative expansion (CDE). Due to presence UV divergences, result is an ambiguous quantity that depends on regularization procedure renormalization scheme. introduce a class regulators facilitate straightforward evaluation anomaly exclusively $d=4$ spacetime dimensions using CDE methodology. d...

Ginger (Zingiber officinale Rosco) is widely used in foods as a spice all around the world. It has been reported to have antioxidant and anticarcinogenic properties. We investigated the effect of ginger in ethionine induced rat hepatocarcinogenesis. Male Wistar rats were divided into 5 groups: group 1 and 2 served as controls and they received normal rat chow and olive oil respectively. Group 3...

BACKGROUND Current estimates of blood group frequencies in Germany were often derived from studies involving less than 12,000 individuals. The frequency of the D category VI was unknown. METHODS ABO. Kell, and Rhesus blood group data of more than 600,000 donors were reviewed. Allele frequencies were derived by the maximum-likelihood method. The frequency of D category VI was determined in mor...

Catheter Directed Embolectomy (CDE) is a growing modality in the treatment of pulmonary embolism (PE). We aim to study predictors early (within 48 hours) comparison late (> 48hours) CDE intervention. The National Inpatient Sample database was queried from years 2016-2019 obtain our sample PE admissions using appropriate ICD-10-CM codes primary diagnosis field. Those with concurrent ischemic str...

We have evaluated the potential use of various polyamidoamine (PAMAM) dendrimer [dendrimer, generation (G) 2-4] conjugates with cyclodextrins (CyDs) as novel DNA and RNA carriers. Among the various dendrimer conjugates with CyDs, the dendrimer (G3) conjugate with α-CyD having an average degree of substitution (DS) of 2.4 [α-CDE (G3, DS2)] displayed remarkable properties as DNA, shRNA and siRNA ...

To determine whether interleukin-10 (IL-10) could alter the development of grain dust-induced airway disease, we pretreated mice with either saline or IL-10 intravenously, exposed the mice to an inhalation challenge with corn dust extract (CDE), and measured inflammation and the development of airway hyperreactivity. Pretreatment with IL-10, in comparison to saline, reduced the concentration an...

OBJECTIVES This study, the first to document the prevalence of pneumoconiosis among a living South African coal mining cohort, describes dose-response relationships between coal workers' pneumoconiosis and respirable dust exposure, and relationships between pneumoconiosis and both lung function deterioration and respiratory symptoms. METHODS A total of 684 current miners and 188 ex-miners fro...

PURPOSE To evaluate the effective phaco time (EPT), cumulative dissipated energy (CDE) and nucleus emulsification time (NET) as phaco parameters with 0- and 30-degree phaco tip. PATIENTS AND METHODS This prospective, interventional and observational case series included 294 patients scheduled for cataract removal by phacoemulsification technique. Patients with nuclear cataracts of grade 4 and...
