Role of Lactobacillus rhamnosus (FloraActive™) 19070-2 and Lactobacillus reuteri (FloraActive™) 12246 in Infant Colic: A Randomized Dietary Study.

Infant colic is a common condition of unknown pathogenesis that brings frustration to families seeking for effective management. Accumulating evidence suggests that some single strains of lactobacilli may play a positive dietary role in attenuation of colic in exclusively breastfed infants. The objective of this study was to evaluate a mixture of two strains in decreasing infant cry and fuss in this population.

[CHAPERONES FUNCTION HSP60 AND HSP90 AND THEIR ROLE IN CARDIAC PATHOLOGY].

In review provides information about the function oft the body of chaperones and their role in the development of pathological processes, including--atherosclerosis and coronary heart disease. Marked comminications systems chaperones to the immune and endocrine systems, and inflammation.

Akt1 expression and activity at different stages in experimental heart failure.

Loss of function or/and death of cardiomyocytes is one of the major contributing factors in the development of heart failure. Cytosolic Hsp60 can directly interact and regulate activation of some kinases and sequestrate certain proapoptotic molecules to avoid the cardiomyocyte apoptosis. We assumed that Akt1 kinase, a downstream effector of PI3 kinase, can interact with Hsp60.

[Influence of long-term combined gamma-radiation and ethanol on cytochrome P450 2E1 expression in the mice liver].

The effect of continuous single and combined influence of exogenous stress factors (ethanol and low intensity gamma-radiation) on cytochrome P450 2E1 (1.14.14.

Molecular chaperone, HSP60, and cytochrome P450 2E1 co-expression in dilated cardiomyopathy.

Physiological stresses (heat, hemodynamics, genetic mutations, oxidative injury and myocardial ischemia) produce pathological states in which protein damage and misfolded protein structures are a common denominator. The specialized proteins family of antistress proteins - molecular chaperons (HSPs) - are responsible for correct protein folding, dissociating protein aggregates and transport of newly synthesized polypeptides to the target organelles for final packaging, degradation or repair. They are inducible at different cell processes such as cell division, apoptosis, signal transduction, cell differentiation and hormonal stimulation.

[ATP activity of myocardial actomyosin complex in patients with dilated cardiomyopathy].

ATP activity of actomyosin in dilated cardiomyopathy (DCMP) was studied together with impact on the above activity of tropomyosin-troponin regulatory complexes recovered from the normal myocardium and cardiac muscle of a DCMP patient. Recordable in DCMP was a striking decline (1.5-fold) in ATP activity of actomyosin.
