1196 Tumorigenicity of Indian Muntjac Diploid Cells

Animal cells cultured after tumor virus infection usually reveal alterations in cell surface, in growth behavior, and in the acquisition of transformed morphology in vitro and tumorigenesis in vivo (1). However, none of them have been proven a causal relationship. For instance, enhanced agglutinabilities by lectins, disappearance of fibronectin proteins, increased proteolysis have been catalogu...

Preliminary Phytochemical Screening of Six Medicinal Plants Used as Traditional Medicine

Preliminary screening of phytochemicals is a valuable step, in the detection of the bioactive principles present in medicinal plants and subsequently may lead to drug discovery and development. In the present study, chief phytoconstituents of the six selected medicinal plants of different families were identified in order to relate their presence with bioactivities of the plants. Screening of s...

Diploid chromosome set of kissing bug Triatoma baratai (Hemiptera, Triatominae).

Triatomines are insects that are taxonomically included in the Hemiptera order and Triatominae subfamily. Based on phenotypic similarity, capacity hybridization, and genetic and ecological aspects, the triatomine species can be grouped into specific complexes and subcomplexes. However, these groupings have not been confirmed. Cytogenetic analyses are important cytotaxonomic tools for improving ...
