The aim of the present study was to define the stress-induced pattern of cytosolic glucocorticoid receptor (GR) and Hsp70 protein in the liver of male Wistar rats exposed to different stress models: acute (2 h/day) ...

The in vitro effect of digoxin, verapamil, propranolol, carbamazepine, diazepam and promethazine were investigated on the ecto-ATPase activity of synaptosomal plasma membranes from the rat brain. ATP hydrolyzing activities ...

The effects of irradiation with gamma rays and protons on HTB140 human melanoma cell morphology and viability were analyzed. Exponentially growing cells were irradiated close to the Bragg peak maximum of the 62-MeV proton ...

The aim of this work is the in vitro study of human melanoma cell growth modulation after irradiation with protons. Confluent cell monolayers were irradiated with single doses ranging from 1 to 20 Gy, using proton beams ...

Chemoresistance is a major problem in the treatment of malignant melanoma. The mainstay of treatment for melanoma is the DNA-alkylating agent dacarbazine (DTIC). Fotemustine (FM), a member of the chloroethylnitrosourea ...

Faraday efficiencies and energy consumptions of a small commercial proton exchange membrane (PEM) and an alkaline electrolyzer designed at our laboratory and equipped with different cathode materials were determined. Our ...
