metaplasia/알부민

Studies were undertaken to evaluate the in vitro properties of recombinant human secretory leukocyte-protease inhibitor (rSLPI) that had been made in Escherichia coli in an inactive form and refolded, and to determine whether emphysema and bronchial secretory cell metaplasia, induced in hamsters by

Pepsinogen level, expressed as the potential peptic activity of pepsinogen was determined by a fluorescent microassay using succinyl albumin as substrate, in biopsy specimens from the gastroduodenal mucosa of 95 subjects. The following results were obtained: (1) pepsinogen level in the gastric

Elevated glucocorticoids are associated with low birth weight and fetal 'programming' of hypertension and glucose intolerance. In the present paper, we show that treatment of fetal rats with dexamethasone during the last week of gestation reduces the insulin content of their pancreatic beta-cells.

Diseases and losses were registered in dependence on vitamin A supply with 2,035 pigs (6.5-114 kg live weight). The histologic examinations comprised various organs of 72 animals. The content of the main protein fractions as well as antibody titre after supplementing antigenes were determined in the

OBJECTIVE To assess the efficacy of sodium hyaluronate as vehicle for diluting autologous serum. METHODS The concentration and temporal stability of EGF, TGF-β, PDGF-AB and albumin in fresh and frozen samples of autologous serum diluted with sodium hyaluronate and saline solution, as well as the pH,

OBJECTIVE To compare upper gastric endoscopic and histopathologic findings in older adults in the presence and absence of B12 deficiency. METHODS A prospective analysis of upper gastric endoscopic and gastric histopathologic findings from 30 newly identified B12-deficient patients (11 males, 19

OBJECTIVE Peripheral blood eosinophil count increases with the degree of mucosal injury associated with gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). METHODS Retrospective review. METHODS Single-institution tertiary hospital. METHODS Two hundred ninety-five patients (215 men and 80 women; median age, 57

Expancel microspheres are thermoplastic microspheres enclosing hydrocarbon. These microspheres expand when heated, producing many applications. Because they have unknown biological persistence and toxicity, we investigated the toxicity of two unexpanded (11.1 and 15.4 micro m mean diameter) and two

OBJECTIVE Secreted gastric mucins are large O-glycosylated proteins of crude mucus gels which are aberrantly expressed in malignancy. An albumin associated 55-65kDa glycoprotein was previously shown in mucus gels in gastric cancer. The aim of this study was to investigate its expression and

The nasal lavage fluids (NLFs) from four subjects with acute sinusitis were analyzed to investigate the amount of proteins expressed in this pathology at the beginning of the event (day 1) and after 6 days of treatment with antibiotics and a nasal steroid spray. The protein identification was

The Solt-Farber protocol, in the absence of an initiating agent, was used to examine the precursor-product relationship between oval cells and hepatocytes in rat liver. The animals were administered 2-acetylaminofluorene (AAF) by gavage for 2 wk combined with partial hepatectomy 1 wk after

The subacute inhalation toxicity of alpha-ethylacrolein was examined in rats by repeated exposure of 4 groups of 10 males and 10 females each to alpha-ethylacrolein vapour at concentrations of 0, 2.0, 9.8 or 48.4 ppm, respectively, (6 h/day, 5 days/week) for a period of 13 weeks. The effects at 48.4

OBJECTIVE This study tried to identify novel gastric autoimmune antigens that might be involved in aggravating the atrophic gastritis among patients with Helicobacter pylori infection using two-dimensional immunoblotting analysis. METHODS Proteins from gastric mucosal antrectomy specimens and AGS

BACKGROUND The Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) may affect metabolism, microbiology, and histology of gastric remnant. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate these issues in rats. METHODS Twelve rats were randomly allocated to a RYGB group (n = 6) and nonoperated normal rats group (n = 6). After

As part of an ongoing cohort study of gastric cancer precursors in Nariño, Colombia, blood levels of ascorbic acid, vitamin E, retinol, pre-albumin, retinol binding protein and carotenoids were measured and correlated with histopathologic findings of gastric biopsies. Carotene levels in both sexes
