Activity changes after olive oil (OO), pomegranate seed oil (PSO), and grape seed oil (GSO) were formulated into self-nanoemulsifying systems (SNES), were examined in this study. Only GSO SNES dramatically enhanced antioxidant activity of GSO. SNES from OO and PSO did not exert obvious impact on radical quenching ability of the oils.

Objective: To evaluate the clinical value of retrospective electrocardiogram (ECG) -editing technique in dual-source computed tomography (CT) coronary angiography in patients with arrhythmia.

Methods: Totally 73 patients with arrhythmia during dual-source CT coronary angiography were included into this study. A retrospective gating technique and ECG-editing technique (Insert Sync; Disable Sync; Delete Sync; Shift R-peak) were used in patients who needed ECG-editing.

The effect of neurotrophin-4 (Ntf4) on mouse embryonic (day-14) neural stem cell (mE14-NSC) fate determination and the mechanisms involved were investigated. Using primary mE14-NSCs, immunocytochemistry and molecular-cell biological methods, such as Western-blotting, we characterized the effect of Ntf4 on mE14-NSC differentiation. Obtained in-vitro data revealed an interesting phenomenon of Ntf4 action resulting in enhanced mE14-NSC commitment to progenitor cells of the neuronal lineage.
