Functional characterisation and permeation studies of lyophilised thiolated chitosan xerogels for buccal delivery of insulin.

Protein Pept. Lett. 21(11) , 1163-75, (2014)

Stable and mucoadhesive, lyophilised, thiolated chitosan xerogels, loaded with insulin for buccal mucosa deliv- ery, in place of the currently used parenteral route have been developed. The xerogels were backed with impervious ethyl- cellulose laminate to ens...

Vacuolar-ATPase isoform a2 regulates macrophages and cytokine profile necessary for normal spermatogenesis in testis.

J. Leukoc. Biol. 96(2) , 337-47, (2014)

a2V is required for maturation of sperm. The decreased expression of a2V at the feto-maternal interphase causes poor pregnancy outcome. The present study examined the role of a2V in spermatogenesis and inflammatory network in the testis. A single dose of anti...

Hemocompatibility evaluation of small elastomeric hollow fiber membranes as vascular substitutes.

J. Biomater. Appl. 29(4) , 557-65, (2014)

One of the main challenges for clinical implementation of small diameter vascular grafts (SDVGs) is their limited hemocompatibility. Important design specifications for such grafts include features that minimize the long-term risks of restenosis, fouling, and...

On the role of hydrophobic Si-based protective coatings in limiting mortar deterioration.

Environ. Sci. Pollut. Res. Int. 22 , 17733-43, (2015)

In order to avoid both natural and artificial stone decay, mainly due to the interaction with atmospheric pollutants (both gases such as NOx and SO2 and particulate matter), polymeric materials have been widely studied as protective coatings enable to limit t...

Facilitated preparation of bioconjugatable zwitterionic quantum dots using dual-lipid encapsulation.

J. Colloid. Interface Sci. 437 , 140-6, (2014)

Zwitterionic quantum dots prepared through incorporated zwitterionic ligands on quantum dot surfaces, are being paid significant attention in biomedical applications because of their excellent colloidal stability across a wide pH and ionic strength range, ant...

CKD-516 displays vascular disrupting properties and enhances anti-tumor activity in combination with chemotherapy in a murine tumor model.

Invest. New Drugs 32(3) , 400-11, (2014)

CKD-516 is a benzophenone analog in which the B ring is modified by replacement with a carbonyl group. The study assessed CKD-516 as a vascular disrupting agent or anti-cancer drug.To assess the effect of S516 on vascularization, we analyzed the effect on hum...

Cytotoxicity and genotoxicity of orthodontic bands with or without silver soldered joints.

Mutat. Res. Genet. Toxicol. Environ. Mutagen. 762 , 1-8, (2014)

Stainless steel bands, with or without silver soldered joints, are routinely used in orthodontics. However, little is known about the toxic biological effects of these appliances. The aims of this study were to evaluate the cytotoxic, cytostatic, genotoxic an...

Male fertility and apoptosis in normal spermatogenesis are regulated by vacuolar-ATPase isoform a2.

J. Reprod. Immunol. 112 , 38-45, (2015)

The a2 isoform of vacuolar-ATPase (ATP6V0A2, referred to as a2V) is required for normal spermatogenesis and maturation of sperm. Treatment of male mice with anti-a2V disturbs the testicular cytokine/chemokine balance and leads to severe deficiencies of sperma...

Magnesium isoglycyrrhizinate protects hepatic L02 cells from ischemia/reperfusion induced injury.

Int. J. Clin. Exp. Pathol. 7(8) , 4755-64, (2014)

Human liver ischemia/reperfusion injury (IRI) is a common and major clinical problem complicating liver surgery and transplantation. The pathogenesis underlying IRI is complex, involving a series of signaling mediators and mechanisms. This study aimed to inve...

Testing of candidate non-lethal sampling methods for detection of Renibacterium salmoninarum in juvenile Chinook salmon Oncorhynchus tshawytscha.

Dis. Aquat. Organ. 114 , 21-43, (2015)

Non-lethal pathogen testing can be a useful tool for fish disease research and management. Our research objectives were to determine if (1) fin clips, gill snips, surface mucus scrapings, blood draws, or kidney biopsies could be obtained non-lethally from 3 t...
