Decreased myocardial injury and improved contractility after administration of a peptide derived against the alpha-interacting domain of the L-type calcium channel. [PDF]

, 2014
BackgroundMyocardial infarction remains the leading cause of morbidity and mortality associated with coronary artery disease. The L-type calcium channel (IC a-L) is critical to excitation and contraction.

Fluorescence lifetime spectroscopy of tissue autofluorescence in normal and diseased colon measured ex vivo using a fiber-optic probe

, 2013
We present an ex vivo study of temporally and spectrally resolved autofluorescence in a total of 47 endoscopic excision biopsy/resection specimens from colon, using pulsed excitation laser sources operating at wavelengths of 375 nm and 435 nm.

Bacterial metabolites influence the autofluorescence of Clostridioides difficile

Frontiers in Microbiology
Clostridioides difficile is a bacterial pathogen that has been implicated in severe gastrointestinal infections. C. difficile has intrinsic green autofluorescence and the level of this autofluorescence is known to be increased by growth time and oxygen ...

The Response of Cerebral Cortex to Haemorrhagic Damage: Experimental Evidence from a Penetrating Injury Model [PDF]

, 2015
Understanding the response of the brain to haemorrhagic damage is important in haemorrhagic stroke and increasingly in the understanding the cerebral degeneration and dementia that follow head trauma and head-impact sports.

Nitric oxide alleviates cadmium- but not arsenic-induced damages in rice roots [PDF]

, 2020
Nitric oxide (NO) has signalling roles in plant stress responses. Cadmium (Cd) and arsenic (As) soil pollutants alter plant development, mainly the root-system, by increasing NO-content, triggering reactive oxygen species (ROS), and forming peroxynitrite

Modulation of Mitochondrial Bioenergetics in the Isolated Guinea Pig Beating Heart by Potassium and Lidocaine Cardioplegia: Implications for Cardioprotection [PDF]

, 2009
Mitochondria are damaged by cardiac ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury but can contribute to cardioprotection. We tested if hyperkalemic cardioplegia (CP) and lidocaine (LID) differently modulate mitochondrial (m) bioenergetics and protect hearts against ...

Decreased green autofluorescence in cancerous tissues is a potential biomarker for diagnosis of renal cell carcinomas

Scientific Reports
This study primarily focuses on the potential sources of autofluorescence, including keratins (KRT) encoded by KRT1, KRT7, and KRT8, to investigate their contributions to the differences in autofluorescence between cancerous tissues and adjacent non ...
