The protein S100 is an acidic calcium-binding protein, and the subunit S100B is the most abundantly found in the brain. The aim of the present study was a comprehensive analysis of serum S100B levels in medicolegal autopsy cases (within 48 h postmortem, nZ283) including victims with head and non-hea

The aim of the present study was to examine Ub-immunoreactivity in the midbrain periaqueductal gray matter (PGM), which is involved in pain processing and modulation, in forensic autopsy cases (n=273) in relation to the causes of death: acute deaths from blunt injuries (n=75), sharp weapon injuries
Pulmonary surfactant-associated proteins A and D (SP-A and -D) are tissue-specific components. Previous studies showed an increase in the postmortem serum SP-A level due to acute pulmonary alveolar damage and acute respiratory distress. The present study comparatively investigated serum SP-A and SP-
Accumulating studies demonstrate that the expressions of hypoxia-inducible factor 1 (HIF-1), erythropoietin (EPO) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) depend on cellular oxygen tension, which is involved in the pathological process of tissue hypoxia and/or ischemia. The present study invest
