Molecular Characterization of Two Homologs of the Caenorhabditis elegans Cadmium-Responsive Gene cdr-1: cdr-4 and cdr-6

Role of MTL-1, MTL-2, and CDR-1 in mediating cadmium sensitivity in Caenorhabditis elegans.

Cadmium is an environmental toxicant whose exposure is associated with multiple human pathologies. To prevent cadmium-induced toxicity, organisms produce a variety of detoxification molecules. In response to cadmium, the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans increases the steady-state levels of several hundred genes, including two metallothioneins, mtl-1 and mtl-2, and the cadmium-specific response g...

Due to increased demand of orthodontic treatment amongst adult patients there has been a rise in the development of methods to accelerate the orthodontic tooth movement and reduce the overall treatment time. Various methods have been introduced to enhance the rate of tooth movement which include the use of low-level laser therapy, pulsed electromagnetic fields, electrical currents, Surgical mea...

dependent variables that were selected for study were, particle size (Y ) and % drug entrapment (Y ). The derived 1 2 polynomial equations were verified by check point formulation. The application of factorial design gave a statistically systematic approach for the formulation and optimization of nanoparticles with desired particle size, % drug release and high entrapment efficiency. Drug:polym...

Introduction: The term connect comes from the Latin word `Connecture', meaning ̀ to bind'.1 It originates from the mesenchyme that is the middle layer of three embryonic germ layers. Connective tissue is a tissue that supports and connects other tissues and parts. The main bulk of the tissue consists of intercellular substance or matrix, whereas rests of the tissue are cells, comprises of compar...
