Temporomandibular joint pain and synovial fluid analysis: a review of the literature.

30 Oct 2009 The pathophysiology of temporomandibular joint pain is not well understood. A significant amount of research has been conducted to evaluate synovial fluid in these patients and in healthy controls. Qualitative and quantitative analyses of the ... Read more...

Hyperglycemia and mechanical stress: targeting the renal podocyte.

30 Oct 2009 Hyperglycemia and deriving from glomerular hypertension mechanical stress are the key factors underlying pathogenesis of diabetic nephropathy (DN). Multiple direct and secondary effects of both these factors are mediated by complex signaling ... Read more...

Iron sequestration and anemia of inflammation.

29 Sep 2009 Anemia of chronic disease, also called anemia of inflammation, is characterized by hypoferremia due to iron sequestration that eventually results in iron-restricted erythropoiesis. During the last decade, the molecular mechanisms of iron ... Read more...
