Photodynamic therapy with aluminum-chloro-phtalocyanine induces necrosis and vascular damage in mice tongue tumors
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE SA, 2009)
In this paper we describe the efficacy of the liposomal-AlClPc (aluminum-chloro-phthalocyanine) formulation in PDT study against Ehrlich tumor cells proliferation in immunocompetent swiss mice tongue. Experiments were ...
Metformin reduces the stimulatory effect of obesity on in vivo Walker-256 tumor development and increases the area of tumor necrosis
(PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD, 2011)
Aims: The objective of this study was to analyze the influence of obesity and insulin resistance on tumor development and, in turn, the effect of insulin sensitizing agents. Main methods: Male offspring of Wistar rats ...
Tumor necrosis factor-alpha in gestation and puerperium of women with gestational hypertension and pre-eclampsia
(Blackwell Publishing, 2007-03-01)
Problem High plasma levels of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) in pregnant women have been associated with the pathogenesis of pre-eclampsia (PE). This study evaluated TNF-alpha plasma levels and monocyte production ...
Tumor necrosis factor-alpha-308G/A single nucleotide polymorphism and red-complex periodontopathogens are independently associated with increased levels of tumor necrosis factor-alpha in diseased periodontal tissues
(WILEY-BLACKWELL PUBLISHING, INC, 2009)
Background and Objective: Inflammatory cytokines such as tumor necrosis factor-alpha are involved in the pathogenesis of periodontal diseases. A high between-subject variation in the level of tumor necrosis factor-alpha ...
Secretion of tumor necrosis factor-alpha by mouse peritoneal macrophages in the presence of dental sealers, sealapex and endomethasone
(2004-07-01)
After filling root canals, the healing process depends on the chemical composition or physical-chemical properties of the material used, among other factors. All root canal sealers, whether solid or plastic, are foreign ...
Cytokine profile of Ehrlich ascites tumor treated with Bothrops jararaca venom
(2002-08-01)
WE previously demonstrated that Bothrops jararaca venom (BjV) has an antitumor effect on Ehrlich ascites tumor (EAT) cells and induces an increase of polymorphonuclear leukocytes in early stages of tumor growth. It has ...
Curcumin requires tumor necrosis Factor α signaling to alleviate cognitive impairment elicited by Lipopolysaccharide
(KargerBasel, 2013)
A decline in cognitive ability is a typical feature of the normal aging process, and of neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s and Huntington’s diseases. Although their etiologies differ, all of these ...
Molecular basis for defining the pineal gland and pinealocytes as targets for tumor necrosis factor
(2010-12-01)
The pineal gland, the gland that translates darkness into an endocrine signal by releasing melatonin at night, is now considered a key player in the mounting of an innate immune response. Tumor necrosis factor (TNF), the ...
Impaired interleukin-1 and tumor necrosis factor production in protein-calorie malnutrition
(1994)
The capacity of malnourished infants to produce interleukin-1 beta (IL-1β) and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) was evaluated before and after nutritional rehabilitation. Ten marasmic patients without infectious diseases ...
