Journal ArticleDOI
Toxicological and cytophysiological aspects of lanthanides action.
Artur Pałasz,Piotr Czekaj +1 more
TL;DR: In the liver, gadolinium selectively inhibits secretion by Kupffer cells and it decreases cytochrome P450 activity in hepatocytes, thereby protecting liver cells against toxic products of xenobiotic biotransformation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nesfatin-1, a unique regulatory neuropeptide of the brain.
Artur Pałasz,Marek Krzystanek,John J. Worthington,Beata I. Czajkowska,Karol Kostro,Ryszard Wiaderkiewicz,Grzegorz Bajor +6 more
TL;DR: The evidence for nesfatin-1 involvement in other important brain functions such as reproduction, sleep, cognition and anxiety- or stress-related responses is suggested, and it may be considered suitable as a potential drug in the pharmacotherapy of obesity, especially in patients treated with antipsychotics and antidepressants.
Journal ArticleDOI
Morphological changes in lungs, placenta, liver and kidneys of pregnant rats exposed to cigarette smoke.
Piotr Czekaj,Artur Pałasz,Tomasz Lebda-Wyborny,G. Nowaczyk-Dura,W. Karczewska,Ewa Florek,Marcin Kamiński +6 more
TL;DR: Exposure to cigarette smoke did not result in histopathological changes in lungs and liver of surviving foetuses, but a tendency for a decrease in the mothers' fertility indices as well as some changes in foetal and newborn parameters was observed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hypothalamic Subependymal Niche: A Novel Site of the Adult Neurogenesis
TL;DR: There are numerous suggestions that newborn hypothalamic neurons have a significant ability to integrate into the local neural pathways and to play important physiological roles, especially in the energy balance regulation.
Journal ArticleDOI
The potential role of the novel hypothalamic neuropeptides nesfatin-1, phoenixin, spexin and kisspeptin in the pathogenesis of anxiety and anorexia nervosa.
Artur Pałasz,Małgorzata Janas-Kozik,Amanda P. Borrow,Oscar Arias-Carrión,John J. Worthington +4 more
TL;DR: Recent evidence dealing with the hypothetical role of new factors in the anxiety-related circuits and pathophysiology of anorexia nervosa, including nesfatin-1, phoenixin, spexin and kisspeptin is reviewed.
