چکیده
in vitro, specifically decreasing GLI1 messenger RNA (mRNA) levels, at concentrations ranging from 1 to 10mM showing dose-dependent effects, modulated by serum levels. The best tests for specificity rely on mimicry by targeting SMOH with RNA interference (RNAi), the use of insensitive SMOH mutants and pathway epistatic analyses. Targeting SMOH through lentivector-mediated short hairpin RNA (shRNA) silencing mimics

Ectoparasitic infestations of the European hedgehog (Erinaceus europaeus) in Urmia city, Iran: First report
Hedgehogs are small, nocturnal mammals that become popular in the world and have significant role in transmission of zoonotic agents. Some of the agents are transmitted by ticks and fleas such as rickettsial agents. For these reason, a survey on ectoparasites in European hedgehog (Erinaceus europaeus) carried out between April 2006 and December 2007 from different parts of Urmia city, ...
متن کاملTicks and Fleas Infestation on East Hedgehogs (Erinaceus concolor) in Van Province, Eastern Region of Turkey
BACKGROUND Ixodid ticks (Acari: İxodidae) and fleas (Siphonaptera) are the major vectors of pathogens threatening animals and human healths. The aim of our study was to detect the infestation rates of East Hedgehogs (Erinaceus concolor) with ticks and fleas in Van Province, eastern region of Turkey.

متن کاملPlane Lorentzian and Fuchsian hedgehogs
Parts of the Brunn-Minkowski theory can be extended to hedgehogs, which are envelopes of families of affine hyperplanes parametrized by their Gauss map. In [F], F. Fillastre introduced Fuchsian convex bodies, which are the closed convex sets of Lorentz-Minkowski space that are globally invariant under the action of a Fuchsian group. In this paper, we undertake a study of plane Lorentzian and Fu...
متن کاملHelminth Parasites of Eastern European Hedgehog (Erinaceus concolor) in Northern Iran
BACKGROUND Recently there is a high tendency among exotic pet owners for keeping hedgehogs. This mammal can transfer some significant zoonotic pathogens to human. Hence, the present study was conducted for the first time to prepare a list of helminth parasites of hedgehogs (Erinaceus concolor) in North of Iran. METHODS Ten (four males and six females) road killed hedgehogs were collected duri...

Gardhouse, S. 32 INTRODUCTION The African Pygmy hedgehog (Atelerix albiventris) is a member of the family Erinaceidae, order Insectivora (1). African hedgehogs are native to the savannah and steppe regions of central and eastern Africa (1). In the wild, African hedgehogs are nocturnal and spend the daytime in burrows (1). They are insectivores and their diet consists mainly of invertebrate pred...
