background autologous platelet concentrate has been used to improve the function and regeneration of injured tissues. tendinopathies are common in clinical practice, although long-term treatment is required. on the basis of lead time, we compared the effect of using platelet-rich plasma (prp) and platelet-rich fibrin (prf) in repairing rat achilles tendon. methods the effectiveness of using prp...

background: the purpose of this study was to create biomaterial scaffolds like platelet-rich plasma (prp) and platelet-rich fibrin (prf) containing stromal cell-derived factor-1 (sdf1) as a chemokine to induce hyaline cartilage regeneration of rabbit knee in a full thickness defect. methods: we created a full thickness defect in the trochlear groove of thirty-six bilateral knees of eighteen mat...

Bald cypress has been retreating in the estuary ecosystem of the Loxahatchee River Watershed in southeastern Florida because of the negative impacts of anthropogenic activities. Seed germination of bald cypress is an important means to increase the arbor population in the vegetation community and accelerate restoration of the wetland ecosystem. The objective of this research was to find an effe...

We report on molecular abundances and distributions in a starless dense core L492. We have found that the abundances of carbon-chain molecules such as CCS, C3S, HC3N, HC5N, and HC7N are comparable to those in chemically young dark cloud cores called ”carbon-chain–producing regions”, such as L1495B, L1521B, L1521E, and TMC-1. This is the first dark cloud core with extremely rich in carbon-chain-...

8-beta-Hydroxypimar-15-en-19-oic acid (1), taxodione (2), 6,7-dehydro-8-hydrotaxodone (3), quercetin-3-O-beta-D-glucopyranoside (4), and shikimic acid (5) were isolated from the leaves of Taxodium distichum L. (Rich.) for the first time. Previously reported compounds [beta-sitosterol (6), isorhamnetin (7), quercetin (8), isorhamnetin-3-O-alpha-arabinofuranoside (9), quercetin-3-O-a-arabinofuran...
