Biedenkapp JC, Leon LR. Increased cytokine and chemokine gene expression in the CNS of mice during heat stroke recovery. Am J Physiol Regul Integr Comp Physiol 305: R978–R986, 2013. First published September 11, 2013; doi:10.1152/ajpregu.00011.2013.— Heat stroke (HS) is characterized by a systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) consisting of profound core temperature (Tc) changes in mice...

The planar -CH=CHC(=O)- fragment (r.m.s. deviation = 0.074 Å) in the title compound, C(18)H(18)O(5), connects the planar hy-droxy-dimeth-oxy-phenyl (r.m.s. deviation = 0.039 Å) and meth-oxy-lphenyl (r.m.s. deviation = 0.021 Å) parts. The central fragment forms a dihedral angle of 13.7 (1)° with the hy-droxy-dimeth-oxy-phenyl part and 32.0 (1)° with the meth-oxy-phenyl part. The hy-droxy group f...

It has been demonstrated that carbon nanotubes (CNTs) associated with sodium hyaluronate (HY-CNTs) accelerate bone repair in the tooth sockets of rats. Before clinical application of HY-CNTs, it is important to assess their biocompatibility. Moreover, cardiac toxicity may be caused by the translocation of these particles to the blood stream. The aim of this study was to evaluate possible change...

Microvasculopathies of nephrosclerosis progress with age in contrasting patterns. Arterial intimal fibroplasia (R(r) and R(c), respectively, in small and large interlobular arteries) previously showed close linkages to hypertension and to "nephrosclerosis," defined by fibrous replacement of atrophied nephrons, whereas hyalinization of arterioles (Hy) failed to show consistent linkages. In this ...

Alternative hen housing is becoming more commonplace in the egg market. However, a complete understanding of the implications for alternative housing systems on egg safety has not been achieved. The current study examines the impact of housing Hy-Line Brown, Hy-Line Silver Brown, and Barred Plymouth Rock hens in conventional cage, cage-free, and free range egg production systems on shell microb...

<span>Banana stem midrib has potential as glucose source through catalytic hydrolysis assisted by ultrasonic (sono-hydrolysis). Besides, natural sand-based silica is raw material for zeolite synthesis. The purpose of the study was to do two things: i) characterize HY-zeolite made from and ii) determine whether or not effective sono-hydrolysis banana midrib. There a total four processes th...

BACKGROUND The purpose of the study was to identify the style of parental bonding and the personality characteristics that might increase the risk of hyperventilation and adjustment disorder. METHODS A total of 917 males were recruited, 156 with adjustment disorder and hyperventilation syndrome (AD + HY), 273 with adjustment disorder without hyperventilation syndrome (AD-HY), and 488 healthy ...

Endothelial lesion response to injurious stimuli is a necessary step for initiating inflammatory cascades in blood vessels. Hypaphorine (Hy) from different marine sources is shown to exhibit anti-inflammatory properties. However, the potential roles and possible molecular mechanisms of Hy in endothelial inflammation have yet to be fully clarified. We showed that Hy significantly inhibited the p...

Using a murine transitional cell carcinoma tumor model, MB49, which naturally expresses the male antigen HY, we evaluated whether tumor ignorance as determined by lack of a systemic immune response could be overcome by immunization with vaccinia expressed tumor antigen and granulocyte macrophage colony-stimulating factor. Systemic tumor ignorance of MB49 was demonstrated by the lack of a spleni...
