Exercise training partly ameliorates cardiac dysfunction in mice during doxorubicin treatment of breast cancer.

Introduction: Doxorubicin is a chemotherapeutic drug used to treat various cancers. Exercise training (ET) can attenuate some cardiotoxic effects of doxorubicin (DOX) in tumor-free animals. However, the ET effects on cardiac function and glucose metabolism in DOX-treated breast cancer models remain unclear.

Synergetic effects of cerium and titanium on the catalytic performance of NiMnO for selective catalytic reduction of NO by NH.

Window into the Brain: In Vivo Multiphoton Imaging.

Decoding the principles underlying neuronal information processing necessitates the emergence of techniques and methodologies to monitor multiscale brain networks in behaving animals over long periods of time. Novel advances in biophotonics, specifically progress in multiphoton microscopy, combined with the development of optical indicators for neuronal activity have provided the possibility to concurrently track brain functions at scales ranging from individual neurons to thousands of neurons across connected brain regions. This Review presents state-of-the-art multiphoton imaging modalities and optical indicators for in vivo brain imaging, highlighting recent advancements and current challenges in the field.

Kefir probiotic products on the count of Candida Albicans in saliva of chemotherapy patients: A randomized placebo-controlled single-blind study.

Background: Oral candidiasis is the most common infection of oral mucosa caused by . A common predisposing factor for candidiasis is immune system suppression in specific diseases such as AIDS and various cancers. This study aimed to analyze the effect of Kefir probiotic products on the count of in the saliva of chemotherapy patients.

Myocardial blood flow in newly diagnosed breast cancer patients at rest and during exercise.

The heart depends critically on continuous blood supply, but it is unknown whether cancer itself affects myocardial blood flow (MBF). This study investigated MBF in cancer patients and cardiac morphology in a cancer mice model. MBF was quantified with [O]HO positron emission tomography at rest in recently diagnosed breast cancer patients and age-matched female controls, and additionally during 10-min exercise in the cancer patients.
