In order to test the effect of acute stress on gonadal hormone secretion in reptiles, six mature male alligators were captured, and a blood sample was taken within 5 min of capture. Additional blood samples were taken at timed intervals for up to 41 hr, and plasma testosterone and corticosterone wer

We have previously reported that a physiological range of shear stress induces neutrophil homotypic aggregation mediated by lymphocyte function-associated antigen-I (LFA-1) and intercellular adhesion rnolecule-3 (ICAM-3) interactions. To further characterize the homotypic aggregation, actin polymeri
## Abstract We studied nitrogen radical nitric oxide (.NO) release and reactive oxygen species (ROS) production by isolated neurophils after phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) stimulation in 12 newly diagnosed and nine treated Parkinson's disease (PD) patients and 10 ageβmatched healthy controls. Neut
## Abstract A wide array of chronic inflammatory conditions predispose susceptible cells to neoplastic transformation. In general, the longer the inflammation persists, the higher the risk of cancer. A mutated cell is a __sine qua non__ for carcinogenesis. Inflammatory processes may induce DNA muta
## Abstract Skeletal muscle damage can result from disease and unaccustomed or excessive exercise. Muscle dysfunction occurs __via__ an increased level of reactive oxygen species and hence there is potential in antioxidants as amelioration strategies. We explored the putative benefit of fruit polyp
