Severe vitamin D deficiency may cause rickets in infants or children and osteomalacia in adults, though it is now uncommon in developed countries. However, subclinical vitamin D deficiency is more prevalent, and it is associated with osteoporosis and higher incidence of falls or fractures. It wa...
Vitamin D plays an essential role in human health as it influences immune function, cell proliferation, differentiation and apoptosis. Vitamin D deficiency has been associated with numerous health outcomes, including bone disease, cancer, autoimmune disease, cardiovascular conditions and more. H...
The prevalence of autoimmune diseases (ADs) has increased over the past few decades. Vitamin D deficiency is a common factor in many of these diseases, whose etiology remains poorly understood. The objective of this study was to review published data on the role of vitamin D in ADs. Vitamin D in...
A thin layer chromatographic — densitometric method for identification and quantitation of neomycin sulfate, polymixin B sulfate, zinc bacytracin and auxiliary substances (methyl and propyl hydroxybenzoates) in ophthalmic ointment was developed. To separate these constituents the silica gel coa...
SummaryExtracellular ATP is a signaling molecule exploited by the immune cells for both autocrine regulation and paracrine communication. By performing live calcium imaging experiments, we show that triggered mouse macrophages are able to propagate calcium signals to resting bystander cells by r...
AimsAge-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a leading cause of irreversible blindness in elderly people. The pathogenesis of neovascular AMD is known but is closely related to inflammation and choroidal neovascularization (CNV). The aim of this study was to investigate the anti-inflammatory an...
The synthesis and characterisation of inorganic phosphate cements based on calcium silicates (wollastonite and calcium disilicate) and phosphoric acid are presented in this paper. Nanopowders of barium titanate (BT) and biocellulose (BC) were used as additions (10 wt%) in order to improve their ...
Stimuli responsive, smart materials are extensively used as drug delivery carriers, antifouling surfaces, and as sensing and actuation devices. Among these materials; hydrophilic, neutral and biocompatible polymers are especially interesting for their strong water absorption properties, which ma...
Resveratrol (RES) is a putative chemotherapeutic naturally found in grapes, peanuts, and Japanese knotweed. Previous studies demonstrate that RES modulates calcium signaling as part of its chemotherapeutic activity. In this study, we determined the chemotherapeutic activity of three RES esters t...
To avoid isolation and purification of the intermediate 6-aminopenicillanic acid (6-APA), a two-enzyme two-step cascade synthesis of ampicillin from penicillin G was established. In purely aqueous medium, penicillin G hydrolysis and ampicillin synthesis were catalyzed by immobilized wild-type an...
SummaryCalcium signals act as universal second messengers that trigger many cellular processes in animals and plants, but how specific calcium signals are generated is not well understood. In this study, we determined that AtANN4, a putative calcium-permeable transporter, and its interacting pro...
Waste penicillin bottles, a main component of medical wastes, have greatly produced in the world. Because of containing residual medicines and different microorganism, this kind of medical wastes is considered as hazardous waste. The unidentified microorganism inside waste penicillin bottles mak...
SummaryPenicillin allergy labels have been associated with second-line antibiotic prescribing. This study measured the impact of penicillin allergy labels on meropenem prescribing. Rates of meropenem prescribing were compared between patients with a penicillin allergy record and patients without...
The aim of this study was to determine the effect of fibronectin and laminin on the in vitro biofilm formation by Streptococcus uberis and the susceptibility to penicillin under planktonic and biofilm growth conditions. We observed that a high percentage (76.5%) of the S. uberis isolates was wea...
AimDepression is the most frequent psychiatric comorbidity in patients with epilepsy.Fluoxetine is the most widely used selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) in depression. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the dose-dependent effect of fluoxetine on penicillin-induced seizure ...
BackgroundDirect challenge (DC) may be a safe and effective alternative to penicillin skin testing (PST) in low-risk patients.
BackgroundRemoval of an inaccurate penicillin allergy record following testing allows patients to access first-line treatment for infections, and reduce the use of broad-spectrum antibiotics, which contribute to antibiotic resistance. However, it is seldom undertaken.
BackgroundPediatric emergency medicine (PEM) and primary care provider (PCP) providers are the most likely physicians to initially label a child as allergic to penicillin. Differences in knowledge and management of reported penicillin allergy between these 2 groups have not been well characterized.
Superoxide dismutase (SOD) activities of various metallobacitracin complexes were evaluated using the riboflavin-methionine-nitro blue tetrazolium assay. The radical scavenging activity of various metallobacitracin complexes was shown to be higher than those of the negative controls, e.g., free ...
Brachyspira intermedia strain HB60 was used to experimentally infect 40 individually caged 22-week-old laying hens. Another 10 control birds were sham-inoculated with sterile broth. All chickens received an experimental layer diet based on wheat. The infected birds were randomly divided into fou...
