متن کاملA Novel Mucilage from Ficus glomerata Fruits for Transdermal Patches: Taking Indomethacin as a Model Drug
The present study was performed to explore the matrix property of Ficus glomerata fruit mucilage for making transdermal patches. The mucilage was evaluated for its physicochemical properties. Various transdermal patches of indomethacin were prepared by solvent evaporation technique using different proportions of F. glomerata fruit mucilage. The compatib...
متن کاملA Huntingtin Peptide Inhibits PolyQ-Huntingtin Associated Defects
BACKGROUND Huntington's disease (HD) is caused by the abnormal expansion of the polyglutamine tract in the human Huntingtin protein (polyQ-hHtt). Although this mutation behaves dominantly, huntingtin loss of function also contributes to HD pathogenesis. Indeed, wild-type Huntingtin plays a protective role with respect to polyQ-hHtt induced defects. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS The question ...
متن کاملDisassociation of histone deacetylase-3 from normal huntingtin underlies mutant huntingtin neurotoxicity.
Huntington's disease (HD) is caused by a polyglutamine expansion within the huntingtin (Htt) protein. Both loss of function of normal Htt and gain of a toxic function by the polyglutamine-expanded mutant Htt protein have been proposed to be responsible for HD, although the molecular mechanisms involved are unclear. We show that Htt is a neuroprotective protein in both HD-related and unrelated m...
متن کاملf/sla from learner perspectives: a social activity or a cognitive process
in the past couple of decades sociocultural theory of sla and its implications in efl contexts have attracted attentions of research circles worldwide and aroused some controversies. firth and wagner (1997) have questioned the principles of the cognitive view which gives importance to mental constructs in favor of sociocultural view which highlights social and contextual constructs. but if soci...
