background:the polysialylated neural cell adhesion molecule (psa-ncam) is expressed in developing brain. fetal brain damage is caused by different conditions such as seizure and hypoxia. the present study was designed to investigate the effect of maternal seizures on the number of psa-ncam positive cells in pup's hippocampus. methods: female wistar rats were divided into four groups: (a) k...

background: most of the cardiovascular diseases can be prevented by doing regular physical exercises and using herbal supplements.the present study is aimed at assessing ginger supplement and high?intensity interval training (hiit) on inflammatory indices contributing to atherosclerosis in overweight women. materials and methods: the present study is a randomized, experimental,and controlled on...

neural cell adhesion molecules (ncams) are known to influence memory by affecting neural cell-cell and cell-extracellular matrix junctions. this study investigated the possible role of camp pathway in the expression of hippocampal ncam and its polysialylated derivative (psa-ncam). the following pharmacological tools were employed for manipulation of camp pathway: a) forskolin; the activator of ...

aim : the present study evaluated the association between g241r and k469e polymorphisms of intercellular adhesion molecule 1 gene and inflammatory bowel disease in iranian population.   background : inflammatory bowel disease including ulcerative colitis and crohn’s disease, is a chronic idiopathic inflammatory disease of the gastrointestinal tract. there are two single base polymorphisms of in...

background: radiation-induced molecular changes on the endothelial surface of brain arteriovenous malformations (avm) may be used as markers for specific vascular targeting agents. in this study, we examined the level of expression of platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule-1 (pecam-1) on brain endothelial cell surface after radiation treatment, with the aim of targeting the radiation-induc...

endothelial dysfunction is thought to be a central pathogenic feature in preeclampsia on the basis of elevated adhesion molecules. soluble forms of these molecules can be detected in plasma, and their concentrations are thought to reflect the degree of activation of a particular cell type. the aim of the present study was to compare the levels of soluble vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (svcam...

The hallmarks of leukocyte adhesion deficiency (LAD) are defects in the leukocyte adhesion process, marked leukocytosis and recurrent infections. These molecular and clinical manifestations result from an impaired step in the inflammatory process, namely, the emigration of leukocytes from the blood vessels to sites of infection, which requires adhesion of leukocytes to the endothelium. Over las...
