Acceleration-dependent sampling for ingestible endoscopic imaging capsule
(IEEE, 2012)A methodology is proposed for regulating the image-acquisition sampling rate of endoscopic capsules. The proposed method utilizes acceleration information to increase the sampling rate during rapid movement. In order to ...

The bacterial metabolite 2-aminoacetophenone promotes association of pathogenic bacteria with flies
(2014)Bacteria contaminate insects and secrete metabolites that may affect insect behaviour and potentially fitness through unknown mechanisms. Here we show that the 'grape-like' odorant 2-aminoacetophenone (2AA), secreted by ...

Drosophila melanogaster as a model for human intestinal infection and pathology
(2011)Recent findings concerning Drosophila melanogaster intestinal pathology suggest that this model is well suited for the study of intestinal stem cell physiology during aging, stress and infection. Despite the physiological ...

The role of innate immunity and stress signalling pathways in intestinal proliferation, endoreplication and tumorigenesis
(Πανεπιστήμιο Κύπρου, Σχολή Θετικών και Εφαρμοσμένων Επιστημών / University of Cyprus, Faculty of Pure and Applied Sciences, 2020-05)Ο ανεξέλεγκτος κυτταρικός πολλαπλασιασμός και ο πολλαπλασιασμός του DNA που δεν συνοδεύεται από κυτταρική διαίρεση έχουν περιγραφεί εκτενώς στα καρκινικά κύτταρα. Δεδομένου ότι και τα δύο προαναφερθέντα φαινόμενα προκαλούνται ...

Synergy between bacterial infection and genetic predisposition in intestinal dysplasia
(2009)Accumulating evidence suggests that hyperproliferating intestinal stem cells (SCs) and progenitors drive cancer initiation, maintenance, and metastasis. In addition, chronic inflammation and infection have been increasingly ...
