Positron emission tomography (PET) of brain amyloid β is a technology that is becoming
more available, but its clinical utility in medical practice requires careful definition. To …

Degenerative diseases such as cancer and cardiovascular diseases, and antimicrobial
resistance are becoming prominent health problems needing utmost public health attention …

A critical event during programmed cell death (PCD) appears to be the acquisition of plasma
membrane (PM) changes that allows phagocytes to recognize and engulf these cells before …

Tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α) signaling gives rise to a number of events, including
activation of transcription factor NF-κB and programmed cell death (apoptosis). Previous …

We provide evidence that Salmonella typhimurium kills phagocytes by an unusual
proinflammatory mechanism of necrosis that is distinguishable from apoptosis. Infection …

We aim at evaluating the toxicity of naturally-aged polystyrene microplastics (MPs) in Danio
rerio at intermediate development stage. Animal models were stactically exposed to 4× 10 4 …

Autosomal recessive juvenile parkinsonism (AR-JP) is caused by mutations in the
parkingene. Parkin protein is characterized by a ubiquitin-like domain at its NH 2-terminus …

Determination of cell viability is the most commonly used method for assessing the impact of
various types of stressors in toxicity research and in industrial microbiology studies. Viability …

Death of oligodendrocyte (OL) precursors can be triggered in vitro by cystine deprivation, a
form of oxidative stress that involves depletion of intracellular glutathione. We report here …

Collagen has been investigated as a potential natural biomaterial, because of its occurrence
in the extracellular matrix. Collagen requires crosslinking in this context, by reagents that are …
