Chitosan-based molecularly imprinted polymers for point-of-care C-reactive prot...

Advanced intelligent wound monitoring is emerging as a critical tool in first-line therapy, supported by innovative products that accelerate the healing process. A novel approach based on molecular imprinting technology was developed to detect biomarkers associated with wound inflammation, using biopolymeric materials. In this study, an electrochemical biosensor for the selective detection of C-reactive protein...

Evaluation of P-glycoprotein activity mediated by fiscalin derivatives at the r...

Background: P-glycoprotein (P-gp) is an active efflux pump that reduces xenobiotics’ accumulation inside cells, and which activity can be modulated by inhibitors, inducers and activators [1,2]. The first ones have been used to counteract the multidrug resistance (MDR) phenomena and the inducers and activators have been proposed as a therapeutic approach in intoxication scenarios. In fact, P-gp binds several unr...

PREDICTORS FOR DEVELOPMENT OF PERIPHERAL ARTERIAL DISEASE IN PANCREAS-KIDNEY TR...

Introduction: The risk of peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is significantly increased in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus who have developed chronic kidney disease. Pancreas kidney transplantation seems to be a promising option for these patients as it corrects both dysfunctions. The traditional risk factors for PAD are well defined in the general population. However, in patients undergoing simultaneous ...
