Background: Neutrophil infiltration plays an important role in inflammatory reactions following spinal cord injury (SCI) and these cells cause substantial secondary tissue damage. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of oleuropein (OE) on myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity as an index of neutrophil infiltration. Methods: Rats were randomly divided into four groups of 7 rats each as...

Abstract. Inspired by a quotation from Howard Cook in 1946, this paper traces the evolution of infiltration theory runoff work Robert Horton and LeRoy Sherman 1930s to early digital computer models 1970s 1980s. The reasons for popularity are considered its impact on way which hydrological responses were perceived several generations hydrologists. Reconsideration perceptual model many catchments...

Objectives: Curcumin has anti-inflammatory and antioxidative properties. The objective of this study was to investigate the therapeutic effects of curcumin on functional disturbances, oxidative stress, and leukocyte infiltration induced by renal ischemia/reperfusion (I/R). Materials and Methods: Animals were randomly divided into 9 groups. The groups with 24-h reperfusion consisted of sham-24h,...

BACKGROUND Natural killer (NK) cells are important effector cells in the defense against tumors. The present study retrospectively examines the intratumoral NK cells in primary resected esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) and the correlation between the patient' outcome and the intratumoral NK cells infiltration. METHODS Immunohistochemistry was used to analyze the intratumoral NK cell ...
