Common promoter variant in cyclooxygenase-2 represses gene expression: evidence of role in acute-phase inflammatory response [PDF]
Objective: Cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 is a key regulatory enzyme in the synthesis of prostanoids associated with trauma and inflammation. We investigated the COX-2 gene for functional variants that may influence susceptibility to disease.

Biomaterial design strategies for enhancing mitochondrial transplantation therapy
Biomaterials to facilitate mitochondrial transplantation therapy: biomaterials as barriers to protect mitochondria from pathophysiological microenvironments, like osmotic stress caused by the excessive concentration of calcium ion, reactive oxygen species, and advanced glycation end products; biomaterials integrating with biochemical cues to improve ...

Coronary artery bypass surgery. [PDF]
Coronary artery surgery entirely relieves or very much reduces angina in over 90 per cent of patients and it can now be undertaken with a very low operative risk. Furthermore, it increases life expectancy for many angina sufferers. It has been shown to increase the probability of surviving for 5 years in those who have life-threatening forms of ...
