BACKGROUND/AIMS As a vasodilatory drug used to treat angina, nicorandil has been shown to induce an infarct-limiting effect in various experimental animal models of myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (IR). There are multiple mechanisms causing the IR injury, among which, the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress and ER stress-initiated apoptosis are implicated to play an important role. However, wheth...

Since the 21st century, under background of steady social and economic development, China’s petroleum enterprises have developed rapidly, but in process oil well engineering, there are also low production, efficiency, order to improve recovery, it is necessary understand implementation effective solutions. This paper analyzes causes production efficiency combination with specific examples furth...

Abstract: point of view. In this study, a shaking-table was used for concentrating a manganese ore sample from the Ghasem Abadarea in Kerman, Iran. Experiments were designed by using LThe influence of each variable and their interactions on the operation of the device was studied. The variables underinvestigation were: table slope, table frequency, water flowrate, feed rate, and particle size. ...

Entity Resolution (ER) lies at the core of data integration and cleaning and, thus, a bulk research examines ways for improving its effectiveness time efficiency. The initial ER methods pri

Plant virus movement proteins (MPs) localize to plasmodesmata (PD) to facilitate virus cell-to-cell movement. Numerous studies have suggested that MPs use a pathway either through the ER or through the plasma membrane (PM). Furthermore, recent studies reported that ER-PM contact sites and PM microdomains, which are subdomains found in the ER and PM, are involved in virus cell-to-cell movement. ...

This work focuses on the design of composite photoanodes with dual-mode luminescent function as well as the effects of luminescent phosphors on the photoelectric properties of dye-sensitized solar cells. Specifically, hexagonal phase NaYF4:Yb(3+)/Er(3+) microcrystals were prepared by a hydrothermal method and added to the TiO2 photoanodes of dye-sensitized solar cells. The results indicated tha...

Heterometallic clusters containing lanthanides and the group 12 metals can be isolated as crystalline compounds in high yields. These products [(py)8Ln4M2Se6(SePh)4 (Ln = Er, Yb, Lu; M = Cd, Hg)] adopt a double cubane structure with the covalent M occupying an opposing pair of external metal sites. Both Er/M compounds are strongly emissive materials, with emission lifetimes of 1.41 ms (Er/Cd) a...
