The role of mitochondria in inflammatory syndromes
(Sociedad Latinoamericana de Microscopía Electrónica.; Centro Regional de Investigaciones Científicas y Tecnológicas, 2016-10)
Several authors have addressed the importance of mitochondrial function in inflammatory syndromes,as it may play a role in the genesis of tissue injury. Sepsis and exposition to environmental particles are examples of ...
Platelets and galectins
(AME Publishing Company, 2014-09)
A major function of platelets is keeping the vascular system intact. Platelet activation at sites of vascular injury leads to the formation of a hemostatic plug. Activation of platelets is therefore crucial for normal ...
Bax channel inhibitors prevent mitochondrion-mediated apoptosis and protect neurons in a model of global brain ischemia
(AMER SOC BIOCHEMISTRY MOLECULAR BIOLOGY INC, 2005-12)
Ischemic injuries are associated with several pathological conditions, including stroke and myocardial infarction. Several studies have indicated extensive apoptotic cell death in the infarcted area as well as in the ...
Minimally invasive management of traumatic lung herniation
(Oxford University Press, 2017)
Post-traumatic pulmonary hernia can occur immediately after thoracic trauma or it may also appear months or even years after the onset. We report a case of a seventeen year-old male patient with thoracic blunt trauma ...
A molecular reporter for monitoring autophagic flux in nervous system in vivo
(Elsevier, 2017)
The relevance of autophagy in neuronal health has been extensively reported in a plethora of conditions affecting the nervous system, such as neurodegenerative diseases, cancer, diabetes, and tissue injury, where altered ...
Free anterolateral thigh perforator flap for sacroiliac defect: First case report in pediatric population
(Elsevier, 2016)
Soft tissue defects of the sacroiliac area, usually can be covered by local flaps. However, for more complex defects, free flap transfers became necessary. We report a case of reconstruction with a free anterolateral thigh ...
Minimally Invasive Computer-Assisted Stereotactic Fenestration of an Aqueductal Cyst: Case Report
(GEORG THIEME VERLAG KG, 2010)
Introduction: Current advances in frame modeling and computer software allow stereotactic procedures to be performed with great accuracy and minimal risk of neural tissue or vascular injury. Case Report: In this report we ...
Metabolic consequences of intermittent hypoxia: Relevance to obstructive sleep apnea
(ELSEVIER SCI LTD, 2010)
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is recurrent obstruction of the upper airway leading to sleep fragmentation and intermittent hypoxia (IH) during sleep. There is growing evidence from animal models of OSA that IH is independently ...
Spatial competition induces the mobilization of morula cells in the colonial ascidian Didemnum perlucidum (Tunicata: Didemnidae)
(WILEY-BLACKWELL, 2011)
The effects of spatial competition among colonial marine organisms are often evident in the contact zones between colonies. These effects are especially pronounced when the interaction results in overgrowth or necrosis of ...
Popliteal lymph node dissection for metastases of cutaneous malignant melanoma
(BioMed Central, 2014)
Abstract
Popliteal lymph node dissection is performed when grossly metastatic nodal disease is encountered in the popliteal fossa or after microscopic metastasis is found in interval sentinel nodes during ...
