Carica papaya seed extract slows human sperm
(Elsevier, 2019)
Ethnopharmacological relevance: Traditional healers use Carica papaya seeds as a remedy for diseases and as a contraceptive for men and abortion in women.
Material and methods: Semen samples from 35 healthy men were allowed ...
The relationship between seminal leukocytes, oxidative status in the ejaculate, and apoptotic markers in human spermatozoa
(Taylor & Francis, 2013)
The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between seminal leukocytes, reactive oxygen species (ROS) production in the ejaculate, and markers of apoptosis in human spermatozoa. Semen samples were collected ...
High-resolution insights into the in vitro developing blood-brain barrier: Novel morphological features of endothelial nanotube function
(Frontiers Media, 2021)
High-resolution electron microscopy (HREM) imaging of the in vitro blood-brain barrier
(BBB), is a promising modality for investigating the dynamic morphological interplay
underpinning BBB development. The successful ...
Differential effects of normoxic versus hypoxic derived breast cancer paracrine factors on brain endothelial cells
(MPDI, 2021)
The blood-brain barrier (BBB) is a central nervous system protective barrier
formed primarily of endothelial cells that regulate the entry of substances and cells from entering the
brain. However, the BBB integrity is ...
The paracrine effect of hypoxic and normoxic cancer secretion on the proliferation of brain endothelial cells (bend.3)
(MDPI, 2022)
: Background: This study aimed to investigate the disruption of cell cycle phases of bEnd.3
cells exposed to cancer paracrine secretion. Cancer cells have been reported to use the secretion
of paracrine factors to ...
The Ism between endothelial cilia and endothelial nanotubules is an evolving concept in the genesis of the BBB
(MDPI, 2022)
The blood–brain barrier (BBB) is fundamental in maintaining central nervous system (CNS)
homeostasis by regulating the chemical environment of the underlying brain parenchyma. Brain
endothelial cells (BECs) constitute ...
Exosomes form tunneling nanotubes (TUNTs) in the blood-brain barrier: A nano-anatomical perspective of barrier genesis
(Frontiers Media, 2022)
The blood-brain barrier (BBB) is a robust interface between the blood
and the central nervous system. Barrier type endothelium is able to limit
paracellular (PC) movement, relegating molecular flux to the transendothel ...
Face-to-face versus online-based lectures: A covid-19 induced study on assessments
(Frontiers Media, 2022)
There is much debate regarding the impact of COVID-induced
lockdown on the standard of assessments, mainly since students were assessed
at home via an online assessment platform. Regular orthodox lectures and
assessments ...
