Oestradiol Treatment Counteracts the Effect of Fructose-Rich Diet on Matrix Metalloproteinase 9 Expression and NF kappa B Activation
(Folia Biologica, 2015)
Fructose-rich diet induces metabolic changes similar to those observed in metabolic syndrome. Among other matrix metalloproteinases, MMP-9 has an important role in adverse cardiac remodelling and might have a role in the ...
Environmental radioactivity in southern Serbia at locations where depleted uranium was used
(Arhiv za higijenu rada i toksikologiju, 2014)
In the 1999 bombing of the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia, NATO forces used ammunition containing depleted uranium. The cleaning of depleted uranium that followed was performed in southern Serbia by the Vinca Institute of ...
Validation of Minor Actinides Fission Neutron Cross-Sections
(Nuclear technology and radiation protection, 2015)
Verification of neutron fission cross-sections of minor actinides from some recently available evaluated nuclear data libraries was carried out by comparison of the reaction rates calculated by the MCNP6.1 computer code ...
Constraints on R-n gravity from precession of orbits of S2-like stars: A case of a bulk distribution of mass
(Advances in Space Research, 2014)
Here we investigate possible applications of observed stellar orbits around Galactic Center for constraining the R-n gravity at Galactic scales. For that purpose, we simulated orbits of S2-like stars around the massive ...
New ruthenium(II) bipyridyl complex: Synthesis, crystal structure and cytotoxicity
(Journal of the Serbian Chemical Society, 2017)
A new Ru(II) bipyridyl complex with O-4-hydrogenpyridine-2,4-dicarboxylate was synthesized and characterized by IR, NMR and mass spectrometry, X-ray diffraction analysis and elemental analysis. The electrochemical ...
Investigating an organ-targeting platform based on hydroxyapatite nanoparticles using a novel in situ method of radioactive (125)Iodine labeling
(Materials Science and Engineering. C: Materials for Biological Applications, 2014)
In this study, we have investigated the synthesis of nanoparticles of hydroxyapatite (HAp) and hydroxyapatite coated with chitosan (HAp/Ch) and the chitosan-poly-D,L-lactide-co-glycolide polymer blend (HAp/Ch-PLGA) as an ...
Redox properties of alkyl-substituted 4-aryl-2,4-dioxobutanoic acids
(Journal of the Serbian Chemical Society, 2017)
Redox properties of a set of aryldiketo acids (ADKs), small organic molecules that comprise 2,4-dioxobutanoic acid moiety, were studied. Along with well-known HIV-1 integrase (IN) inhibition, ADKs exert widespread biological ...
The role of G protein coupled receptor kinases in neurocardiovascular pathophysiology
(Archives of Medical Science, 2012)
In coronary artery disease the G protein related kinases (GRKs) play a role in desensitization of beta-adrenoreceptors (AR) after coronary occlusion. Targeted deletion and lowering of cardiac myocyte GRK-2 decreases the ...
RR interval-respiratory signal waveform modeling in human slow paced and spontaneous breathing
(Respiratory Physiology and Neurobiology, 2014)
Our aim was to model the dependence of respiratory sinus arrhythmia (RSA) on the respiratory waveform and to elucidate underlying mechanisms of cardiorespiratory coupling. In 30 subjects, RR interval and respiratory signal ...
Uncoupling of cardiac and respiratory rhythm in atrial fibrillation
(Biomedical Engineering / Biomedizinische Technik, 2016)
Rearranged origin of heart rhythm in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) influences the regulation of the heart and consequently the respiratory rhythm, and the bidirectional interaction of these rhythms not documented. ...
