METHODOLOGICAL CONSTRAINTS IN INTERPRETING SERUM PARAOXONASE-1 ACTIVITY MEASUREMENTS: AN EXAMPLE FROM A STUDY IN HIV-INFECTED PATIENTS

Methodological constraints in interpreting serum paraoxonase-1 activity measurements: an example from a study in HIV-infected patients

Abstract Background Paraoxonase-1 (PON1) is an antioxidant enzyme that attenuates the production of the monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) in vitro.Although oxidation and inflammation are closely related processes, the gel bottle baby the association between PON1 and MCP-1 has not been completely characterised due, probably, to that the cur

MicroRNA genes preferentially expressed in dendritic cells contain sites for conserved transcription factor binding motifs in their promoters

Abstract Background MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play a fundamental role in the regulation of gene expression by translational repression or target mRNA degradation.Regulatory elements in miRNA promoters are less well studied, but may reveal a link between their expression and a tactical maternity pants specific cell type.Results To explore this link in myel
