The use of atomic force microscopy to visualize oxidative stress
Molecular and Cellular Biochemistry
January 1999
We imaged pores on the surface of the cell wall of three different industrial strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae using atomic force microscopy. The pores could be enlarged using 10 mM diamide, an ...
Observation of Oxidative Stress on Yeast Cells
Use of atomic force microscopy to visualize the cell wall surface of Saccharomyces cerevisiae (baker's yeast) cells after being underwent to oxidative stress (oxygen free radicals - ROS).

The burden of disease associated with acne vulgaris has continued to increase over time in the world population. This continued growth suggests that there is an unmet dermatologic need for this con...
The development of new drugs to fight cancer
Recent Patents on Anti-Cancer Drug Discovery
January 2011
Cancer is a class of diseases with an uncontrolled growth of cells (usually derived from a single cell) beyond the normal limits. The growths often invade adjacent tissues and, sometimes, migrate t...
The use of anti-inflammatory drugs to regress cancer
Recent Patents on Anti-Cancer Drug Discovery
June 2009
The current use of antineoplastic drugs in human therapy causes a substancial number of toxic or side effects which consequently lead to a reduction of the amount of drug to be administered, and in...
Aminoacids, vitamins and melatonin for healing GERD
World Journal of Gastrointestinal Pharmacology and Therapeutics
January 2010
Melatonin is used in many countries to improve sleep disorders. Melatonin is a hormone produced by the pine- al gland and enterochromaffin cells which control sleep and gastrointestinal motility. L...
Regression of an esophageal ulcer using a dietary supplement
Journal of Pineal Research
