The influence of working memory load on response inhibition in children with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder or reading disorder [PDF]

, 2011
The aim of the present study was to examine the relationship between response inhibition and working memory in 8-12-year-old children with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD; n = 19), reading disorder (RD; n = 17), ADHD + RD (n = 21), and ...

Subjective and functional cognitive impairment: diagnostics using biological markers of Alzheimer's disease

Neurology, Neuropsychiatry, Psychosomatics
Cognitive impairment (CI) is one of the most common disorders in elderly. The development of dementia is usually preceded by subjective (SCI) and mild cognitive impairment (MCI) over several years. Patients with SCI are at increased risk of developing MCI and dementia, but SCI may not progress for a long time and in many cases is functional in nature ...

Protein pyrophosphorylation by inositol pyrophosphates — detection, function, and regulation

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Protein pyrophosphorylation is an unusual signaling mechanism that was discovered two decades ago. It can be driven by inositol pyrophosphate messengers and influences various cellular processes. Herein, we summarize the research progress and challenges of this field, covering pathways found to be regulated by this posttranslational modification as ...

Neutrophil Gelatinase-Associated Lipocalin: Biological Aspects and Potential Diagnostic Use in Acute Kidney Injury

Journal of Clinical Medicine
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a syndrome characterized by a rise in creatinine or a decrease in urinary flow, according to the Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) definition. It is diagnosed in 15% of inpatients and 50% of patients in the intensive care unit (ICU), and it is related to increased mortality.

The role of histone modifications in transcription regulation upon DNA damage

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This review discusses the critical role of histone modifications in regulating gene expression during the DNA damage response (DDR). By modulating chromatin structure and recruiting repair factors, these post‐translational modifications fine‐tune transcriptional programmes to maintain genomic stability.

Schizophrenia, social practices and cultural values: A conceptual introduction [PDF]

, 2018
Schizophrenia is usually described as a fragmentation of subjective experience and the impossibility to engage in meaningful cultural and intersubjective practices. Although the term schizophrenia is less than 100 years old, madness is generally believed

Establishment of a biological indicator for the radiation and safety of diagnostic ultrasound using apoptosis.

In vivo (Athens, Greece), 2000
We have studied, by a nonisotopic in situ end-labeling (ISEL) technique, the frequency of apoptosis in the intestinal crypt cell of adult mice and in the external granular layer(EGL) of the cerebellum of fetuses by gamma-ray irradiation from 60Co or diagnostic ultrasound exposure.

Mechanisms of parasite‐mediated disruption of brain vessels

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Parasites can affect the blood vessels of the brain, often causing serious neurological problems. This review explains how different parasites interact with and disrupt these vessels, what this means for brain health, and why these processes matter. Understanding these mechanisms may help us develop better ways to prevent or treat brain infections in ...

Diagnostic capacities of determination of biologically active free testosterone in blood, by using current ultrafiltration techniques

Problems of Endocrinology, 2009
In most cases, current methods for immunoassay of blood total testosterone fail to provide a sufficient diagnostic accuracy. The authors measured the concentration of free testosterone in the blood and saliva samples from 189 males aged 19 to 83 years who had come to the clinic to confirm or exclude the diagnosis of various endocrine dysfunctions ...

Parasitoids, predators and PCR: the use of diagnostic molecular markers in biological control of Arthropods

Journal of Applied Entomology, 2007
Abstract:  The polymerase chain reaction (PCR) revolutionized the field of diagnostics, and today it has routine applications in medical, veterinary, forensic and botanical sciences. The fields of biological control and insect pest management have generally been slow to adopt PCR‐based diagnostics in comparison with other fields of science.
