protein-losing enteropathies/ニコチン

The present investigation was designed to the study, in rabbits, of morphologic and enzymatic pulmonary alterations produced by tobacco smoke and the course of tuberculosis under these conditions. The histologic examination revealed muciparous hyperplasia and pavementing metaplasia of the bronchic

OBJECTIVE To study the association of the single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs4073 in the interleukin-8 (IL-8) promoter region with the diagnosis and age of onset of exudative age-related macular degeneration (AMD) in association with the known genetic risk factors for AMD and tobacco

Few anatomopathological criteria for distinguishing vocal nodules, polyps or REINKE's edema have been established in previously published studies. In order to study this issue, 163 samples (from 119 patients) were examined by an experienced anatomopathologist, without her prior knowledge of the

Exudative laryngopathies are represented by the nodule, the polyp and the Reinke's oedema. Their origin is found in exudative processes located in the Reinke's space. Evolution towards one or another lesion depends on the etiological factor (vocal abuse, tobacco, alcohol, acute vocal fold trauma)

Celiac Disease (CD) is a gluten sensitive enteropathy that remains widely undiagnosed and implementation of massive screening tests is needed to reduce the long term complications associated to untreated CD. The main CD autoantigen, human tissue transglutaminase (TG2), is a challenge for the

BACKGROUND Topical application of nicotine and stimulation of tachykinin containing sensory nerves have been shown to produce mucosal exudation of plasma and derangement of the epithelial lining in guinea pig and rat airways. If this occurred in man these effects might contribute to the pathogenesis

We characterized plasma exudation induced by direct inhalation of cigarette smoke in anesthetized, artificially ventilated guinea pigs, using Evans blue dye as a plasma marker, and investigated the neurogenic mechanisms underlying the response. Cigarette smoke increased plasma exudation in the lower

Olmesartan-associated enteropathy (OAE) is a life-threatening pathological condition, but its underlying mechanisms have not been elucidated. Although intestinal hypermotility is frequently accompanied by chronic diarrhea, there have been no studies of olmesartan-induced hypermotility. Intestinal

The newly synthesized mutant L501fsX533 Frizzled-4 form and the alpha3beta4 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor expressed in the absence of nicotine accumulate in the endoplasmic reticulum of COS-7 cells and induce the formation of large areas of smooth and highly convoluted cisternae. This results in

Background: Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is thought to cause approximately 9% of all cases of blindness worldwide. In Germany, half of all cases of blindness and high-grade visual impairment are due to AMD. In this review, the

Gastrointestinal complications of diabetes include gastroparesis, intestinal enteropathy (which can cause diarrhea, constipation, and fecal incontinence), and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease. Patients with gastroparesis may present with early satiety, nausea, vomiting, bloating, postprandial
