Ang-(1-7)/ MAS1 receptor axis inhibits allergic airway inflammation via blockade of Src-mediated EGFR transactivation in a murine model of asthma.
( PLoS ONE , 2019 , Article)The angiotensin-(1-7) [Ang-(1-7)]/MAS1 receptor signaling axis is a key endogenous anti-inflammatory signaling pathway. However, the mechanisms by which its mediates the anti-inflammatory effects are not completely understood. ... -
The cardiac toxicity of PAMAM dendrimer drug delivery systems can be attenuated with the adjunct use of cardioprotective agents.
(2024 , Article)Polyamidoamine (PAMAM) dendrimer nanoparticles are efficient drug delivery vectors with potential clinical applications in nanomedicine. However, PAMAMs can compromise heart function, and strategies to mitigate cardiotoxicity ... -
Chronic administration of nano-sized PAMAM dendrimers in vivo inhibits EGFR-ERK1/2-ROCK signaling pathway and attenuates diabetes-induced vascular remodeling and dysfunction.
( Elsevier , 2019 , Article)We investigated whether chronic administration of nano-sized polyamidoamine (PAMAM) dendrimers can have beneficial effects on diabetes-induced vascular dysfunction by inhibiting the epidermal growth factor receptor ... -
COVID-19 and Alzheimer's disease: Impact of lockdown and other restrictive measures during the COVID-19 pandemic.
( the Association of Basic Medical Sciences , 2023 , Article Review)Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection initially results in respiratory distress symptoms but can also lead to central nervous system (CNS) and neurological manifestations, significantly ... -
Critical appraisal of predatory journals in pathology.
( BMJ , 2019 , Article)Predatory journals refer to journals that recruit articles through aggressive marketing and spam emails, promising a quick, but not robust, review and fast open-access (OA) publication, thus compromising scholarly publishing ... -
Diabetes-induced peripheral neuropathy: Is prescribing physical exercise the answer?
( Association of Basic Medical Sciences of Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina , 2024 , Article)Diabetes mellitus, a chronic metabolic disorder characterized by hyperglycemia, has become a global health concern with an increasing prevalence worldwide. The International Diabetes Federation (IDF) estimates that over ... -
Epstein-Barr Virus and Human Papillomaviruses Interactions and Their Roles in the Initiation of Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition and Cancer Progression.
( Frontiers Media , 2018 , Article Review)Oncoviruses are implicated in around 20% of all human cancers including both solid and non-solid malignancies. Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) and human papillomaviruses (HPVs) are the most common oncoviruses worldwide. Currently, ... -
Epstein-Barr Virus in Gliomas: Cause, Association, or Artifact?
( Frontiers Media , 2018 , Article Review)Gliomas are the most common malignant brain tumors and account for around 60% of all primary central nervous system cancers. Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is a grade IV glioma associated with a poor outcome despite recent ... -
The Impact of Pamam Dendrimers on Her2-Positive Breast Cancer and the Early Stages of Embryogenesis
(2020 , Master Thesis)Poly (amidoamine) (PAMAM) dendrimers are widely used in drug delivery systems and gene transfection as drug carriers. They also exert several biological effects including modulating gene expression and interfering with ... -
Is there truly an increase in risk of cardiovascular and hematological adverse events with vascular endothelial growth factor receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors?
( Taylor & Francis , 2019 , Article)Recent studies have shown an increase risk of cardiovascular and hematological adverse events associated with vascular endothelial growth factor tyrosine kinase inhibitors (VEGF-TKIs). The authors hypothesize that the ... -
Mitigating Cardiotoxicity of Dendrimers: Angiotensin-(1-7) via Its Mas Receptor Ameliorates PAMAM-Induced Cardiac Dysfunction in the Isolated Mammalian Heart
( Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI) , 2022 , Article)Aim: The influence of the physiochemical properties of dendrimer nanoparticles on cardiac contractility and hemodynamics are not known. Herein, we investigated (a) the effect of polyamidoamine (PAMAM) dendrimer generation ... -
Naked Poly(amidoamine) Dendrimer Nanoparticles Exhibit Intrinsic Embryotoxicity During the Early Stages of Normal Development.
( American Science Publishers ASP , 2020 , Article)To investigate the impact of poly(amidoamine) dendrimers (PAMAMs) in the embryo, we explored the outcome of different generations (G₄ and G) on the early stages of embryogenesis using the chicken embryo as a model. We also ... -
The Role of Epstein-Barr Virus in Cervical Cancer: A Brief Update.
( Frontiers Media , 2018 , Article Review)Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) belongs to the group of gamma-herpes viruses and was the first recognized human oncovirus. EBV is responsible for infectious mononucleosis and multiple lymphoid and epithelial malignancies including ... -
Targeted immunotherapy with a checkpoint inhibitor in combination with chemotherapy: A new clinical paradigm in the treatment of triple-negative breast cancer.
( Association of Basic Medical Sciences of Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina , 2019 , Article Review)The treatment of several solid and hematologic malignancies with immune checkpoint inhibitors (against PD-1/PD-L1) has dramatically changed the cancer treatment paradigm. However, no checkpoint inhibitors were previously ... -
Targeting the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR/ErbB) for the potential treatment of renal pathologies
( Frontiers Media SA , 2024 , Other)Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), which is referred to as ErbB1/HER1, is the prototype of the EGFR family of receptor tyrosine kinases which also comprises ErbB2 (Neu, HER2), ErbB3 (HER3), and ErbB4 (HER4). EGFR, ... -
