    • Apoptosis of leukocytes: Basic concepts and implications in uremia 

      Jaber, Bertrand L. [UNIFESP]; Cendoroglo Neto, Miguel [UNIFESP]; Balakrishnan, Vaidyanathapuram S.; Perianayagam, Mary C.; King, Andrew J.; Pereira, Brian JG (Blackwell Science Inc, 2001-02-01)
      Circulating blood leukocytes have short life expectancies and end their lives by committing programmed cell death or apoptosis. Apoptosis is an active form of cell death that is initiated by a number of stimuli and is ...

    • Avaliação do efeito da hipotermia por crioimersão corporal, nos neutrófilos e linfócitos sanguíneos de ratos submetidos ao exercício físico agudo 

      Bachur, José Alexandre; Quemelo, Paulo R.; Bachur, Cynthia A. K.; Domenciano, Julio C.; Martins, Carlos H. G.; Stoppa, Marcos A.; Barros Neto, Turibio Leite de [UNIFESP]; Garcia, Sérgio B. (Associação Brasileira de Hematologia e Hemoterapia e Terapia Celular, 2008-12-01)
