Iodine Quantification to Distinguish Clear Cell from Papillary Renal Cell Carcinoma at Dual-Energy Multidetector CT: A Multireader Diagnostic Performance Study
(2014-08)
Purpose: to investigate whether dual-energy multidetector row computed tomographic (CT) imaging with iodine quantification is able to distinguish between clear cell and papillary renal cell carcinoma (RCC) subtypes.

Effect of various Viperidae and Crotalidae snake venoms on endothelial cells in vitro
(1994)
The effect of various crotalid and viperid venoms at 10, 50 and 100 μg/ml was examined on bovine and murine endothelial cells in vitro. The venoms caused the cells to lose their processes, leading to the appearance of ...
Replication of Influenza A and B Viruses in Human Diploid Cells
(J Gen Virol 64: p 471-475, 1983-09-20)
Under optimal conditions, of high multiplicities of infection and with trypsin
included in the medium throughout the incubation period, high yields of infectious
influenza A and B viruses (106-5 p.f.u./ml) and of ...
Hemorrhage induced by snake venom metalloproteinases: biochemical and biophysical mechanisms involved in microvessel damage
(2005-06-15)
Zinc-dependent metalloproteinases are responsible for the hemorrhagic activity characteristic of viperid snake venoms. Snake venom metalloproteinases (SVMPs) are classified in various groups (P-I–IV), according to their ...
Disease-associated CAG·CTG triplet repeats expand rapidly in non-dividing mouse cells, but cell cycle arrest is insufficient to drive expansion
(Nucleic Acids Research 42(11) p. 7047–7056, 2014-05-01)
Genetically unstable expanded CAG·CTG trinucleotide repeats are causal in a number of human disorders, including Huntington disease and myotonic dystrophy type 1. It is still widely assumed that DNA polymerase slippage ...
The clerodane diterpene casearin J induces apoptosis of T-ALL cells through SERCA inhibition, oxidative stress, and interference with Notch1 signaling
(2016-01-28)
T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) is an aggressive hematologic malignancy that preferentially affects children and adolescents. Over 50% of human T-ALLs possess activating mutations of Notch1. The clerodane ...
Characterization of events associated with apoptosis/anoikis induced by snake venom metalloproteinase BaP1 on human endothelial cells
(2005-02)
Human endothelial EA.hy926 cells were incubated with BaP1, a hemorrhagic metalloproteinase purified from Bothrops asper snake venom. Since the first hour of incubation with the proteinase, cells started showing DNA ...
Activity of hemorrhagic metalloproteinase BaH-1 and myotoxin II from Bothrops asper snake venom on capillary endothelial cells in vitro
(1994-04)
In vivo, hemorrhagic toxins isolated from snake venoms cause a disorganization of the basal lamina of capillaries, with a concomitant degenerative process of endothelial cells. In this study we investigated the effects of ...
A thermodynamic cycle for the solar cell
(2017-01-06)
A solar cell is a heat engine, but textbook treatments are not wholly satisfactory from a thermodynamic standpoint, since they present solar cells as directly converting the energy of light into electricity, and the current ...
Acrylamide: dermal exposure produces genetic damage in male mouse germ cells
(1992)
Acrylamide Is used extensively in sewage and wastewater treatment plants, in the paper and pulp industry, in treatment of potable water, and in research laboratories for chromatography,
eltetrophoresis. and electron ...
