BACKGROUND: The use of pretargeting technology for cancer imaging and treatment has made significant progress in the last few years. This approach takes advantage of the fact that biotin binds strongly to proteins avidin and streptavidin. Thus, a non-toxic tumor cell specific antibody is conjugated with avidin/streptavidin, and is administered to patients. After the antibody binds to tumor cell...

objective(s): neuroinflammation and oxidative stress play a key role in pathogenesis of parkinson’s disease (pd). in the present study we investigated the effect of reactive oxygen species (ros) scavenger wr-1065 on catalepsy and cerebrospinal fluid (csf) level of interleukin 6(il-6) and striatum superoxide dismutase (sod) activity  in 6-hydroxydopamine (6-ohda) induced experimental model of pd...

Parmi les innombrables variations cinématographiques déterritorialisées de Macbeth qui sortent chaque année, l’adaptation Justin Kurzel en 2015 se distingue par le fait qu’elle a été principalement tournée Écosse. En tant que telle, elle s’inscrit dans une autre tradition « calédonisation » (McArthur) ne recourt toutefois pas à la tartanry pour costumes et décors, mais aux sites naturels paysag...

The kinetics of the reactions of glutathione (GSH) with 4-hydroperoxycyclophosphamide (4OOH-CP) and acrolein, a metabolite of 4OOH-CP, were investigated in a cell-free medium (pH approximately 7.5) and peripheral blood mononuclear cells. The ability of the thiol drugs, sodium 2-mercaptoethane sulfonate (mesna) and S-2-(3-aminopropylamino)ethanethiol (WR-1065), to affect the reactions of cellula...

OBJECTIVES Neuroinflammation and oxidative stress play a key role in pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease (PD). In the present study we investigated the effect of reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavenger WR-1065 on catalepsy and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) level of interleukin 6(IL-6) and striatum superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity in 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA) induced experimental model of PD. ...

BACKGROUND Amifostine is a potent scavenger of reactive oxygen species that is used for the salivary gland protection during therapy with radioactive iodine for thyroid cancer. There are no data on the potential effect of amifostine on thyroid cancer cells. METHODS We investigated the effects of the active form of amifostine (WR-1065) on the response of thyroid cancer cells to treatment with ...

Introduction. Osteoarthritis, a degenerative joint disease, is a key cause of disability around the world and an ever-growing public health concern. Intra-articular hyaluronic acid viscosupplementation is used as a conservative option for osteoarthritis knee pain relief (McArthur et al., 2012; Hootman and Helmick, 2006; Huang el al., 2011). In general, the literature has shown an excellent safe...

Bushfire represents a significant risk within the Australian environment, and providing a spatial estimate of the risk represents a challenge for producing planning guidelines. The primary method for estimating day-to-day fire weather risk within Australian fire fighting operational environments has been the McArthur Forest Fire Danger Index, which is an empirical index taking into account both...
