Inhibition of calcineurin by FK506 restored AMPK function and LC3 expression, and decreased the extent of apoptosis caused by prolonged oxidative stress.
Immunization of Ldlr−/− mice with heat killed S pneumoniae increases the titers of T15-id IgM antibodies that bind OxLDL and decreases the extent of atherosclerosis.
Here, HQT treatment rapidly reversed the lost body weight and decreased the extent of the bleeding and diarrhoea scores in a dose-dependent manner, with both parameters reaching significance in the 60 and 120 mg/kg treatment groups– 1(c)).
SCTE treatment reduced the number of eosinophils in BALF and in the lung tissue surrounding the airways, and decreased the extent of goblet cell hyperplasia compared with untreated mice.
They found that pretreatment with dantrolene (3 mg/kg and 1.5 mg/kg intravenously) caused a significant reduction in body temperature, and decreased the extent of HS signs as well as some of the induced changes in enzymes and hormones.
Withdrawal of FCS slowed down and decreased the extent by which E. coli or LPS enhanced the expression of cyto- and chemokine encoding genes through impaired TLR4 signalling but enforced their expression during stimulation with S. aureus.
Increasing cysteine availability in these animals by intraperitoneal injections of 150 mg kg−1 of NAC normalized brain GSH concentrations and decreased the extent of neuronal death after oxidant exposure (Aoyama et al., 2006).
A smaller aperture increases depth of field and decreases the extent to which objects outside the depth of field are blurred.
Minimizing sources of pollution, reducing the competition between non-native and native species, controlling the spread of disease, reversing trends of habitat fragmentation and loss, decreasing the extent of poaching or other types of resource exploitation, and restoring natural disturbance regimes should increase ecosystem resilience to changing climate.
Early studies, conducted at pH 6 and 30 and 40 °C, showed that CR aggregation varies with ionic strength and temperature, with a higher temperature decreasing the extent of micelle formation and salt having the opposite effect, and suggested a cmc at 30 °C as high as 300 μM.
