Intermittent catheterization is an alternative solution that could improve the vesical defense mechanisms and decrease the incidence of bacteriuria.
In SHR, upregulation of CaMkII may shift smooth muscle contraction toward Rho-dependent mechanisms and decreased phosphatase activity.
We have recently reported that the COX-2 selective inhibitor rofecoxib decreased cell growth by several mechanisms and decreased the metastatic potential of CRC in the mouse (Yao et al, 2003).
Therefore, exogenous Gln utilized here appears to improve the general metabolic condition and host defense mechanisms, and decrease the C-CRT-induced toxicity and related detrimental effects on quality of life measures and clinical outcomes.
Magnesium could protect against vascular calcification via multiple molecular mechanisms, and decreased serum levels of magnesium are associated with vascular calcification, as revealed in both humans and in animal studies [ 1, 25– 27].
Furthermore, dietary VO can induce major histological changes in fish enterocytes, originating mostly from supranuclear lipid droplet formation, possibly due to altered reacylation mechanisms and decreased phospholipid synthesis [ 16- 18].
Both increased protein proteolytic flux (either by proteasomal or autophagy-related mechanisms) and decreased lipid peroxidizability could help explain the lower levels of protein oxidative damage seen in liver from CR mice.
TCP-AP uses the received signal strength indicator (RSSI) to infer information regarding the hidden terminal issue; however, RSSI causes an over-estimation of transmission delay in its pacing mechanism and decreases the TCP throughput drastically.
During the process of TiO2 crystal growth, HCl worked like a chemical catalyst to cause a change in the crystallization mechanism and decreased the activation energy for the rutile formation [29].
However, it was shown that increasing the aluminum content to over 5% was detrimental to the material's integrity, leading to a brittle fracture mechanism and decreased ductility in the weldment.
