OPLA scaffold, collagen I, and horse serum induce an higher degree of myogenic differentiation of adult rat cardiac stem cells.

29 Nov 2009 In the last few years, a major goal of cardiac research has been to drive stem cell differentiation to replace damaged myocardium. Several research groups have attempted to differentiate potential cardiac stem cells (CSCs) using bi- or ... Read more...

Effects of in vitro exposure to hay dust on expression of interleukin-23, -17, -8, and -1beta and chemokine (C-X-C motif) ligand 2 by pulmonary mononuclear cells from horses susceptible to recurrent airway obstruction.

29 Sep 2009 OBJECTIVE: To examine gene expression of selected cytokines in pulmonary mononuclear cells isolated from healthy horses and horses susceptible to recurrent airway obstruction (RAO), and to determine whether interleukin (IL)-17 and IL-23 were ... Read more...

Anti-inflammatory effects of intravenously administered lidocaine hydrochloride on ischemia-injured jejunum in horses.

29 Sep 2009 OBJECTIVE: To investigate effects of lidocaine hydrochloride administered IV on mucosal inflammation in ischemia-injured jejunum of horses treated with flunixin meglumine. ANIMALS: 24 horses. PROCEDURES: Horses received saline (0.9% NaCl) solution ... Read more...
