Early screening of nasopharyngeal carcinoma

Head &Neck, Volume 45, Issue 10, Page 2700-2709, October 2023., 2023
Abstract The low positive predictive value (PPV) of early screening of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is the problems that need to be solved urgently. The combination of cell‐free DNA (cfDNA) methylation testing and Epstein–Barr virus (EBV) serological testing is the key to solve this problem.

West Nile virus in the Republic of Serbia—Diagnostic performance of five serological tests in dog and horse sera

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 69, Issue 5, Page e2506-e2515, September 2022., 2022
Abstract West Nile virus (WNV) is a zoonotic mosquito‐borne virus classified as family Flaviviridae and genus Flavivirus. The first WNV outbreak in humans in the Republic of Serbia was recorded in 2012. Equids and dogs can show clinical symptoms after WNV infection and are often used as sentinels.

Inhibition of ornithine decarboxylase restores hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction in endotoxemic mice

Pulmonary Circulation, Volume 10, Issue 4, Page 1-8, October‐December 2020., 2020
Endotoxemia impairs hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction which leads to systemic hypoxemia. This derogation is attributable to increased activity of nitric oxide synthase 2 and arginase metabolism. Gene expression analysis has shown increased expression of ornithine decarboxylase in lungs of endotoxemic mice, a downstream enzyme of arginase metabolism ...

Uniaxial Static Strain Promotes Osteoblast Proliferation and Bone Matrix Formation in Distraction Osteogenesis In Vitro

BioMed Research International, Volume 2020, Issue 1, 2020., 2020
Objective. We aimed at investigating the effects of uniaxial static strain on osteoblasts in distraction osteogenesis (DO). Methods. To simulate the mechanical stimulation of osteoblasts during DO, 10% uniaxial static strain was applied to osteoblasts using a homemade multiunit cell stretching and compressing device.

Activated cytotoxic T cells within zoonotic cutaneous leishmaniasis lesions

Immunity, Inflammation and Disease, Volume 7, Issue 3, Page 95-104, September 2019., 2019
The aim of this study is to investigate the role of cytotoxic cells on the outcome of the Zoonotic cutaneous leishmaniasis (ZCL) due to infection by Leishmania major. We demonstrated the presence of cytotoxic T lymphocytes expressing high levels of granzyme B and granulysine within ZCL lesions comparing to healthy skin.

Mesenchymal Stem Cells Derived and Cultured from Glioblastoma Multiforme Increase Tregs, Downregulate Th17, and Induce the Tolerogenic Phenotype of Monocyte‐Derived Cells

Stem Cells International, Volume 2019, Issue 1, 2019., 2019
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) possess immunosuppressive properties and have been described in the tumor microenvironment of glioblastoma multiforme (GBM). This manuscript has two major topics—first, to describe isolated and cultured MSCs derived from GBM (GB‐MSCs) and second, to examine their in vitro immunosuppressive capacity.
