Folate, Neopterin And Kynurenine Pathway In Patients With Statin Therapy
(Walter De Gruyter Gmbh, 2016)
Statins, widely used antihyperlipidemic drugs, also have immunomodulatory properties independent from their lipid lowering effect. Even with slight modulations in the immune system, pteridine levels can display changes. ...
Immunomodulation And Oxidative Stress In Denim Sandblasting Workers: Changes Caused By Silica Exposure
(Inst Medical Research & Occupational Health, 2013)
Workers in denim sandblasting are at a high risk of developing silicosis, an occupational lung disease caused by inhaling crystalline silica dust. The development and progress of silicosis is associated with the activation ...
Neopterin Levels And Indoleamine 2,3-Dioxygenase Activity As Biomarkers Of Immune System Activation And Childhood Allergic Diseases
(2019)
Background Although Th2 immune activation is predominant in allergic diseases, neopterinlevels and indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO)-1 activity (kynurenine:tryptophan ratio), which reflect Th1 immune activity, increase ...
Mycotoxin Detection In Maize, Commercial Feed, And Raw Dairy Milk Samples From Assiut City, Egypt
(2019)
This survey was conducted to investigate the contamination by multiple mycotoxins, aflatoxins (AFB1, AFB2, AFG1, and AFG2), ochratoxin A (OTA), and zearalenone (ZEA) in 61 samples of maize and 17 commercial animal feed ...
An Exploratory Study Of Neopterin And Kynurenine Pathway In Pterygium
(2019)
Pterygium is an inflammatory, vascular and degenerative disorder with unknown aetiology. The aim of this study was to evaluate the changes in neopterin levels, reflecting T-cell immunity, and the kynurenine pathway, the ...
Evaluation Of Dihydropteridine Reductase Activities In Patients With Kidney Failure
(Walter De Gruyter Gmbh, 2013)
End-stage renal disease (ESRD) is the inability of the kidneys to remove waste products from the blood. The most important factors causing ESRD that require hemodialysis are diabetes and hypertension. There are limited ...
Tryptophan Degradation And Neopterin Levels By Aging
(Walter De Gruyter Gmbh, 2013)
Increased neopterin concentrations and altered tryptophan degradation are observed in diseases concomitant with cellular immune activation. This may be involved in the pathogenesis of several age-related disorders such as ...
Possible Changes of New-Generation Inflammation Markers With Occupational Lead Exposure
(2017)
Objectives: Occupational lead (Pb) exposure is still an important health problem in the world. Long-term Pb exposure causes several adverse effects. The aim of this study was to investigate the changes of inflammation ...
Toxicity Of Acrylamide And Evaluation Of Its Exposure In Baby Foods
(Cambridge Univ Press, 2010)
Contaminants are a vast subject area of food safety and quality and can be present in our food chain from raw materials to finished products. Acrylamide, an alpha,beta-unsaturated (conjugated) reactive molecule, can be ...
Chronopharmacokinetics Of Drugs In Toxicological Aspects: A Short Review For Pharmacy Practitioners
(2012)
A rough 24-hour cycle driven endogenously in biochemical, physiological or behavioral processes is called circadian rhythm. Chronobiology is the study of biological temporal rhythms. For decades, we know that the biological ...
