Background
Matrix metalloproteinases 2 and 9 (MMP-2 and MMP-9) are increased in the brain after experimental ischemic stroke in rats. These two proteases are involved with the degradation of the basal lamina and loss of stability of the blood brain barrier that occurs after ischemia and that is associated with thrombolytic therapy in ischemic stroke. Minocycline is a lipophilic tetracycline and is neuroprotective in several models of brain injury. Minocycline inhibits inflammation, apoptosis and extracellular matrix degradation. In this study we investigated whether delayed minocycline inhibits brain MMPs activated by ischemia in a model of temporary occlusion in Wistar rats. 相似文献2.
Abstract
Molybdenum is well known for its toxic effects, although it is also essential for N2-fixing cyanobacteria and several enzymes. This study proposes a simple and accurate procedure for separation, preconcentration, and determination of trace amounts of molybdenum in biological samples by flame atomic absorption spectrometry. It is based on complexation of Mo by cupferron and sorption onto activated carbon. Effects of parameters such as pH, stirring time, and amounts of activated carbon and cupferron on recovery were examined. The results demonstrated that Mo at pH range of 2.5–3.5 was quantitatively sorbed onto activated carbon as its cupferron complex. The optimum stirring time was found to be 30 min. The relative standard deviation was found to be 12% for 200 cm3 50 ng/cm3 Mo using 10 replicate preconcentration procedures. The limits of detection and quantification were found to be 1.0 and 3 ng/cm3, respectively, by preconcentration of 200 cm3 initial sample to 2 cm3 final volume. As a result, an enrichment factor of 100-fold was achieved. The proposed preconcentration procedure was applied to determine Mo in biological samples such as vegetables, milk, and animal liver. The molybdenum concentrations were found (as μg/dm3 or μg/kg) in the range of 70–5,500 for plants, 3–124 for milk and milk powder, and 960 for liver samples. 相似文献3.

Background
While gelatinase (MMP-2 and -9) activity is increased after focal ischemia/reperfusion injury in the brain, the relative contribution of neutrophils to the MMP activity and to the development of hemorrhagic transformation remains unknown. 相似文献4.

Glass-ceramic materials, obtained by sinter-crystallization of melted alkaline-olivine basaltic tuffs, were investigated. The kinetics of bulk crystallization was evaluated by differential thermal analysis (DTA) at different heating rates. The phase formation and the sintering behavior of glass powders (<75 μm) were studied in air and in nitrogen atmospheres by DTA and dilatometry, respectively. The crystalline phases formed were identified by X-ray diffraction. The DTA traces showed an unusual phase formation behavior with a higher crystallization trend for the bulk samples. The crystallization activation energy was evaluated as 590 ± 20 kJ/mol in the range 1080–1110 K. A value of about 3 of the Avrami constant, corresponding to three-dimensional growth on a fixed number of nuclei, was evaluated by Ozawa and Augis–Bennet methods. The densification at low-temperatures is reduced by the intensive crystallization process in both air and nitrogen atmospheres. The sintering starts again at 1150–1250 K. In air atmospheres, due to the FeO oxidation, the sintering temperature increases and the percentage of formed crystal phase decreases by 15–20%. 相似文献
