Studies on eosinophils in bone-marrow tissue culture of the human sternum Part 1. Observations on the behaviors of eosinophils in bone-marrow tissue culture of the sternum in patients with various eosinophilia [PDF]
Of eosinophilias that we often encounter clinically, we selected two of the most representative ones, namely, hookworm diseae and bronchial astma, for our present sternal bone-marrow tissue culture, and studied the movement patterns and wandering ...

Noscapine AntagonizesVasoconstrictor Action of Bradykinin in Isolated Human Umbilical Artery
Background: It has been demonstrated that noscapine, an antitussive opioid alkaloid, could antagonize bradykinin- induced responses such as bradykinin effects in guinea-pig ileum, cough induced by radykinin receptor agonist and angiotensin converting ...

Cardiomyocyte-specific inactivation of thyroid hormone in pathologic ventricular hypertrophy: an adaptative response or part of the problem? [PDF]
Recent studies in various rodent models of pathologic ventricular hypertrophy report the re-expression of deiodinase type 3 (D3) in cardiomyocytes. D3 inactivates thyroid hormone (T3) and is mainly expressed in tissues during development. The stimulation

A microscopic and transcriptome sequencing approach to protective mechanisms of opioid receptor stimulation in murine pressure overload induced heart failure [PDF]
Background: Heart Failure (HF) is a major cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Decreased cardiac output and weakened contractile function are major factors accompanying disease progression in HF. This inefficiency leads to pathological remodeling
