Detailed dosimetry calculation for in-vitro experiments and its impact on clinical BNCT
(Istituti Editoriali e Poligrafici Internazionali, 2021-09)
Purpose: Boron Neutron Capture Therapy (BNCT) is a form of hadrontherapy based on the selective damage caused by the products of neutron capture in 10B to tumour cells. BNCT dosimetry strongly depends on the parameters of ...
Evaluation of environmental and nutritional factors and sua gene on in vitro biofilm formation of Streptococcus uberis isolates
(Academic Press Ltd - Elsevier Science Ltd, 2017-06)
The pathogenesis of Streptococcus uberis is attributed to a combination of extracellular factors and properties such as adherence and biofilm formation. The aim of this work was to evaluate the influence of different ...
Effect of the hematopoietic growth factors erythropoietin and kit ligand on bovine oocyte in vitro maturation and developmental competence
(Elsevier, 2019-01)
The overall aim of this work was to study the influence of the hematopoietic growth factors erythropoietin (EPO) and kit ligand (KITL) during bovine oocyte in vitro maturation (IVM). The effect of adding different ...
Effect of GnRH analogues on apoptosis and release of interleukin-1 b and vascular endothelial growth factor in endometrial cell cultures from patients with endometriosis
(Oxford University Press, 2003-12)
The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effect of GnRH analogues on the in‐vitro eutopic endometrial cell apoptosis and release of interleukin‐1β (IL‐1β) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). The aim of ...
Bioinformatics tools for the prediction of T-cell epitopes
(Springer, 2018-05)
T-cell responses are activated by specific peptides, called epitopes, presented on the cell surface by MHC molecules. Binding of peptides to the MHC is the most selective step in T-cell antigen presentation and therefore ...
Transcriptome analysis of mycorrhizal and nonmycorrhizal soybean plantlets upon infection with Fusarium virguliforme, one causal agent of sudden death syndrome
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2019-04)
Soilborne pathogens represent a threat to agriculture causing important yield losses. Sudden death syndrome (SDS) of soybean is a severe disease caused by a complex of Fusarium species. This pathosystem has been widely ...
Comparative effects of histone deacetylases inhibitors and resveratrol on Trypanosoma cruzi replication, differentiation, infectivity and gene expression
(Elsevier, 2017-04)
Histone post-translational modification, mediated by histone acetyltransferases and deacetylases, is one of the most studied factors affecting gene expression. Recent data showing differential histone acetylation states ...
Clostridium perfringens type E virulence traits involved in gut colonization
(PLOS, 2015-03-23)
Clostridium perfringens type E disease in ruminants has been characterized by hemorrhagic enteritis or sudden death. Although type E isolates are defined by the production of alpha and iota toxin, little is known about the ...
Staphylococcus aureus isolates from chronic osteomyelitis are characterized by high host cell invasion and intracellular adaptation, but still induce inflammation
(Elsevier Gmbh, 2014-11)
Osteomyelitis is a severe inflammatory disease of the bone that is mainly caused by Staphylococcus aureus. Particularly, bone infections are difficult to treat and can develop into a chronic course with a high relapsing ...
