Human chorionic somato mammotrophin and growth hormone (GH) produced no significant effect on the water content and extracellular fluid. Neither human chorionic somatomammotrophin nor GH produced any significant effect on the wet weight of the ovary or on [1* C]α aminoisobutyric acid ([1*(]...
The effects of stress are usually studied in animal models. The organs of 103 subjects who died instantly or very rapidly from gunshot wound were histologically studied. Everyone, within organized criminality, lives under chronic stress. In the hypothalamus a marked depletion of neurosecretive granules...
Post-mortem human tissue samples are a valuable resource for biological research. Specifically, use of post-mortem material is crucial for studying the patterns of normal gene expression underlying tissue specificity within individuals, as sampling such tissues from living individuals would be impossible....
Ultrafine particles (PM0.1), which are present in the air in large numbers, pose a health risk. They generally enter the body through the lungs but translocate to essentially all organs. Compared to fine particles (PM2.5), they cause more pulmonary infla

[241,242]. Knock-down of Miro1 in MSCs inhibits mitochondrial donation, thus reducing their therapeutic effects in bronchial epithelial injury [254]; in contrast, Miro1overexpression in MSCs leads to enhanced beneficial effects [242,255,256]. Apart from Miro1, Zhang et al. found that TNF-α...
including the macroscopic examination and morphology of reproductive organs, observation of development effects, and measurement of spermatozoan effects. Weight and histopathological analyses of the testicles, epididymis, and accessory sex glands, including the prostate and seminal vesicles, should be conducte...
response mediators like cortisol and catecholamines are both synthesized and metabolized by mitochondria [16] but also the stress response essentially involves energy production and increased availability of energy substrates like glucose in the brain, one of main energy-demanding organs in the body [21...
which carry oxygen to your organs. Since the body makes about 2 million of these cells per second, it only takes a few days to a week to regenerate the missing blood from a donation. Meanwhile, other proteins signal the bone marrow to produce white blood cells — a key component of the...
