The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of bioactive peptides (BAPT) from animal sources on the development of mouse preantral follicles in vitro. Preantral follicles were isolated and randomly divided into the following groups: an untreated group (control) and three groups supplemented with 20, 40 and 60 μg/mL BAPT, respectively. After...
Kolaborativni roboti so poleg virtualne resničnosti in aditivnih tehnologij glavne tehnologije strojne opreme, pomembne pri integraciji strategij Industrije 4.0. Delo obsega obravnavo kolaborativnih robotov in njihovih aplikacij v industriji, uporabo sistema ROS in njegovih knjižnic ter vmesnikov in programiranja gibov kolaborativnega robota v name...

The aim of this study was to investigate the mechanism of pro-inflammatory phenotype transformation of microglia induced by oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD), and how salvianolate regulates the polarization of microglia to exert neuroprotective effects. The immunofluorescence and western blot experiments were used to verify the injury effect on neur...

Tumors harbor diverse compartments of cells with distinct metabolic properties and phenotypes, but the mechanism by which metabolic commensalism among distinct subsets of cancer cells affects tumor progression remains unclear. Colorectal cancer (CRC) has been reported to consist of cancer stem cells (CSCs) and differentiated cancer cells (non-CSCs)...

High-intensity exercise damages mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) in skeletal muscle. Whether MitoQ - a redox active mitochondrial targeted quinone - can reduce exercise-induced mtDNA damage is unknown. In a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled design, twenty-four healthy male participants consisting of two groups (placebo; n = 12, MitoQ; n = 12) p...

Copper (Cu) is an essential micronutrient for both pathogens and the hosts during viral infection. Cu is involved in the functions of critical immune cells such as T helper cells, B cells, neutrophils natural killer (NK) cells, and macrophages. These blood cells are involved in the killing of infectious microbes, in cell-mediated immunity and the p...

Despite different phenotypic manifestations, mounting evidence points to similarities in the molecular basis of major neurodegenerative diseases (ND). CNS has evolved to be robust against hazard of ROS, a common perturbation aerobic organisms are confronted with. The trade-off of robustness is system's fragility against rare and unexpected perturba...

The transcriptomic response of green microalga Chlorella sorokiniana exposure to environmentally relevant concentration of cadmium(II) (Cd) and 4-n-nonylphenol (4-n-NP) was compared in the present study. Cd and 4-n-NP exposure showed a similar pattern of dys-regulated pathways. The photosystem was affected due to suppression of chlorophyll biosynth...
