Association between TSPO-PET measurable microglial activation and soluble GFAP in multiple sclerosis
(14.04.2023)INTRODUCTION Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic, immune-mediated disease that targets the central nervous system (CNS). It is characterized by neuroinflammation, demyelination, and progressive neurodegeneration which are ...avoin -
C. elegans odour detection in the diagnosis of prostate cancer
(11.05.2023)There are about 200 distinct forms of cancer, each of which is diagnosed and treated differently. Early identification and treatment of cancer is especially important as the population ages and cases become more frequent. ...avoin -
Characterization of Clever-1 expressing extracellular vesicles and their effect on T lymphocyte proliferation
(10.05.2021)Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) are the new milestone for the management of advanced solid cancers. Unfortunately, most patients are not responsive to these treatments, since they may develop mechanisms that suppress ...avoin -
Comparison of DNA damage biomarker dynamics after induced DNA damage : Study of DNA damage biomarker expression and dynamics in cancer cells
(02.05.2022)To ensure genomic integrity and protect cells from a variety of DNA damaging agents, cells have developed a complex network called the DNA damage response (DDR). It monitors and ensures DNA integrity by coordinating DNA ...avoin -
Development of RT-PCR based method for genome amplification of human picornaviruses and rescue of viable viruses
(27.04.2023)Picornaviruses (family Picornaviridae), causing diseases form respiratory illness to life-threatening CNS disease, are among the most common human pathogens. More than 300 human picornavirus types have been currently ...avoin -
Discovery of RAR-related Orphan Receptor γt Inverse Agonists

Effects of melanocortin receptor modulation on hypertrophic responses in cardiomyocytes
(25.01.2021)After cardiac stress such as that occurring during myocardial infarction the heart undergoes pathological remodelling consisting of cardiomyocyte hypertrophy, interstitial fibrosis, contractile dysfunction, cell death and ...avoin -
Establishment of 3D co-culture model of mesenchymal stem cells and mononuclear cells for studying vasculogenesis/angiogenesis, and the magnetic isolation of endothelial progenitor cells from mononuclear cells
(05.02.2019)Bone tissue engineering that stimulates bone formation has improved normal fracture healing, but its true clinical impact is still lacking. One of the biggest problems with bone tissue engineered grafts is an inadequate ...avoin -
Establishment of in vitro breast cancer bone metastasis model using an artificial microenvironment
(11.03.2021)Advanced breast cancer frequently metastasises to the bone, causing considerable morbidity to the patients. Survival rate after detection of bone metastases is poor, and options to treat bone metastases are insufficient. ...avoin -
FTIR and Raman spectroscopy in characterization of bioreactor cultured prostate cancer extracellular vesicles
(15.03.2021)Background: Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are nano-sized cell membrane derived structures that function as intercellular messengers and hold potential for applications in diagnostics and drug delivery. There is a need to ...avoin -
High throughput flow cytometry-based drug sensitivity testing for melflufen in multiple myeloma
(04.09.2020)Multiple myeloma (MM) is a hematological plasma cell malignancy in the bone marrow. Lately, increased knowledge of MM pathogenesis and advances in therapy have improved the survival of MM patients. However, due to the ...avoin -
