Hypoxia-inducible factors (HIFs) and biological responses, in hypoxia, inflammation and embryonic vascular development.
(2008-04-21)
ABSTRACT
Low oxygen tension (hypoxia) is a major inducer of neovascularisation and evidence emerging has indicated that oxygen tension and hypoxia-inducible factors (HIFs), a family of oxygen-regulated heterodimeric ...
Proton pump inhibitors: indications and acid rebound
(2008-07-04)
Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are nowadays the therapy of choice in the management of a variety of upper gastrointestinal (GI) conditions particularly gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). Previous studies indicate that ...
Inflammation and neuroprotective strategies in the immature brain after hypoxic-ischemic brain injury
(2008-05-13)
Perinatal brain injury, as a result of hypoxia-ischemia (HI) or infection/HI, is a major cause of acute mortality and neurological morbidity in infants and children. The mechanisms of perinatal HI are not fully understood, ...
