Background: Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is a multifactorial genetic disease, characteristically endemic and shows considerable differences in its geographical distribution. Besides infection with EBV, genetic factors such as polymorphisms of TCR-β gene contribute to the incidence of NPC. This study investigates the association of TCR-β gene polymorphisms with individual susceptibility to d…
data on the epidemiology of influenza in tropical countries, including Indonesia, are still limited. Up dateddata for its prevalence is needed to monitor its spreading and to evaluate its outbreak. Therefore a workingregional laboratory in surveillance of ILI (Influenza Like Illness) was formed. This research was conducted toprovide updated data on prevalence of ILI in regional laboratorium avi…
Econazole is an azole antifungal agent which can block the calcium release-activated calcium (CRAC) current in human leukaemic T cell line. The phenomenon is also possible to occur in mast cell such as RBL-2H3 (rat basophilic leukemia) cells, a tumor analog of mast into the cells, a tumor analog of mast cells. In the study, we investigated effect of econazole on 45 Ca 2+ uptake into the cells…

enefit of retaining both testes. To Demostrate that intratesicular injection of 20% hypertonic sodium chloride can result in permanent castration and to evaluate serum changes in sodium chloride levels. A total of 40 Wistar rats were divided into 4 groups, consisting of bilateral orchidectomy (n=10) and 2 group receving intratesticular injections of 20% sodium (n=10 in each group). Serum testos…
Background: Histopathological examination is paramount in patients with suspected lung cancer, because it is a gold standard for lung cancer diagnosis. Sputum cytology examination is the only non-invasive examination that can detect lung cancer, besides it is quite cheap and can be used widely. Objective: The aim of this study is to compare whether any sensitivity differences among once 3% sal…
Background: Aging has important role in metabolic impairment. Impaired Glucose Tolerance (IGT) is one of any deterioration of physiological function. Recent study reported that 16% of men elderly with IGT and this condition related with insulin resistance. We have no recent data about IGT in women elderly and is there any correlation with insulin resistance. Objective: Aim of the study to dete…
Impaired of carbohydrate metabolism is characteristic of Diabetes Melfitus (DM) subjects that cause dysregulation of glucose uptake by target cell. Ketogenesis is compensation of this condition. The basic of this process is fatly acid oxydation. Increasing of fatly acid oxydation formed ketone bodies that we called acetone and can detected by air breathing. Aim of study to determine corelation …
