Little is known about the simultaneous uptake of different engineered nanoparticle types, as it can be expected in our daily life.In order to test such co-exposure effects, murine macrophages (J774A.1 cell line) were incubated with gold (AuNPs) and iron oxide nanoparticles (FeOxNPs) either alone or combined.Environmental scanning electron microscop
This study was aimed to identify the expression pattern of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and to explore its potential correlation with the progression of NSCLC.Gene expression profile GSE39345 was downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus database.Twenty healthy controls and 32 NSCLC samples befor
Abstract To carry out the preclinical and histological evaluation of a novel nanotechnology-based microshunt for drainage glaucoma surgery.Twelve New Zealand White rabbits were implanted with a novel microshunt and followed up for 6 weeks.The new material composite consists of the silicone polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) and tetrapodal Zinc Oxide (ZnO-
Abstract MicroRNAs as cancer biomarkers in serum, plasma, and other body fluids are often used but analysis of miRNA in urine is limited.We investigated the expression of selected miRNAs in the paired urine, serum, cervical scrape, and tumor tissue specimens jacques marie mage baudelaire 2 from the women with cervical precancer and cancer with a vi
Anthropic pressure has been proven to be one of the most evident forces able to alter landscapes.Its impact on the surroundings can be easily detectable especially in a high-density populated country such as Italy.Among the most evident anthropic alterations, the most important are the urbanization processes but mint julep boutique returns also cha
