Role of peritoneal mesothelial cells and the inflammatory response in peritoneal fibrosis
… overlap between phases. The unique feature of peritoneal repair is that both small and large peritoneal wounds heal in a similar time. The peritoneum is a monolayer of elongated, flattened, squamous-like peritoneal mesothelial cells (PMC). Local mesothelial cell proliferation, centripetal cell …

Murine Peritoneal Macrophage Response to Colonial Phenotypes of Candida Albicans
… focus of this investigation was to test murine peritoneal macrophage response to two different phenotypes of the same strain of C. albicans. Heat-killed preparations of the parent and a UV-induced, switched phenotype (S-5) were tested for their capacity to prime macrophages for enhanced …

Modulation of Arachidonic Acid Metabolism in Rat Peritoneal Macrophages Through Nutritional Means
Embargo set by: Seth Robbins for item 78657 Lift date: Forever Reason: Restricted to the U of I community idenfinitely during batch ingest of legacy ETDs

Laparoscopy and loop colostomy : a new approach to extra-peritoneal rectal injuries
… carefully selected patients with isolated extra-peritoneal rectal injuries. The patient is thus spared a major laparotomy wound. The value of distal rectal washout and presacral drainage in such injuries is also examined.

STUDY OF THE MUTUAL INTERACTION BETWEEN EXTRACELLULAR MATRIX AND CELLS IN PERITONEAL METASTASIS
… matrix extracted from human patients during peritoneal metastasis. AFM microscopy with large colloidal probes was used as the main experimental tool. Presented results of mechanical characterization of ECM, together with additional biotechnological studies, revealed that signs of forming …

Differently charged polypeptides and their impact on peritoneal and pleural postoperative adhesion formation
… charged polypeptides and their impact on peritoneal and pleural postoperative adhesion formation Abstract: Abdominal adhesions are formed after previous peritoneal traumas where previous surgery poses the most frequent cause. An increasing number of clinical complications due to adhesions …

Investigating the Reconstitution and Function of Peritoneal Cavity Macrophages after LPS-induced Peritonitis
… Like most tissue macrophages, the GATA6+ large peritoneal macrophages (LPMs) are responsible for the clearance and removal of pathogens that may break through the defensive barriers of the abdomen. However, upon inflammation incurred by the response of the immune system to foreign matter, the …

Epidemiología de las peritonitis en diálisis peritoneal en Andalucía: 18 años de seguimiento
… en la principal complicación asociada a diálisis peritoneal, la peritonitis. Su relevancia deriva de su elevada morbilidad, el efecto negativo que provoca en el peritoneo como membrana de diálisis y el coste económico que ocasiona. Métodos: Estudio observacional de cohortes, analítico, no …

Gravity assisted continuous flow peritoneal dialysis (CFPD) in children with acute kidney injury
Background: Peritoneal dialysis (PD) has long been a mainstay of acute kidney injury (AKI) management in children of all ages, and it remains the most commonly used modality in low-income regions, where continuous kidney replacement therapy (CKRT) is not widely available. Compared to extracorporeal …

Cartilha educativa acerca dos cuidados com o cateter de diálise peritoneal : um estudo descritivo
… não tem cura, mas tem tratamento. A diálise peritoneal é um método de diálise que usa o peritônio como membrana semipermeável para a depuração de toxinas urêmicas. É considerada uma terapia simples e eficaz, porém, está associada a algumas complicações, sendo o enfermeiro fundamental neste …

A Study on the Effectiveness of Activated Murine Peritoneal Macrophages in Killing Candida Albicans Hyphae
The ability of Candiada albicans to convert from yeast to hyphal form enhances the ability of this opportunistic organism to evade normal host defenses. Since cell-mediated immunity plays a vital role in resistance to candidosis, macrophages, phagocytic cells of the immune system, are particularly …

Studies of Blood Leukocytes and Peritoneal Fluids in Some Acute Abdominal Conditions and in Shock
Acute leukopenia produced by the injection of foreign protein substances was noted in 1886 by Wyssokowitsch, and was attributed at first to destruction of white cells (Lowit -1892) and later to withdrawal of leukocytes from the peripheral circulation into vessels of the viscera. In substance these …

conventional cytology is not beneficial for prediciting peritoneal recurrence after curative surgery for gastric cancer
Purpose: The role of peritoneal washing cytology in determining further treatment strategies after gastric cancer surgery is still unclear. One reason for this is that optimal procedures to increase the accuracy of predicting peritoneal metastasis have not been established. The aim of this study …

A cancer-targeting liposomal delivery system for photodynamic diagnosis and therapy of cancers in peritoneal cavity
The peritoneal tumor is not named after the originating of cancer cells but instead contains all tumors appearing in the region of the peritoneal cavity. There are over 250,000 new cases of malignant diseases originating from organs in the peritoneal cavity annually in the USA, and most of these …

The Effect of Candida Hyphal Inhibitory Product (Chip) on Murine Peritoneal Macrophage Killing of Candida Albicans Hyphae
Dimorphic conversion of Candida albicans from the yeast to the hyphal form plays a critical role in the pathogenicity of the fungus. Macrophages, phagocytic cells of the immune system, are able to recognize and kill both forms of the fungus through different mechanisms. Recent investigations have …

Tumor Necrosis Factor-α Production By Murine Peritoneal Macrophages in Response to Candida Albicans Yeasts, Germ Tubes, and Mycelia
Candida albicans is a dimorphic fungus that has been found to cause lethal septic shock and disseminated infection in immunocrompromised hosts. Following colonization of the hosts tissues the yeast form of the organism forms germ tubes and eventually mycelia. The yeast form of the organism is …
