• Listeria Monocytogenes

  AIMS: A total of nine Listeria monocytogenes strains (seven serotypes) were studied to ascertain whether the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug diclofenac (Dc) used in combination with the conventional antilisterial antibiotic gentamicin (Gm) or ampicillin [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Foam Cell

  The best known of these functions is the ability to promote cholesterol efflux from cells in a process that may minimize the accumulation of foam cells in the artery wall. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
