Photosynthesis is a process under which, the radiative energy is converted into the chemical one. Compared to the man-made devices, the photosynthesis apparatus is much more efficient. This high efficiency comes from its elaborate structure, very fast transition rates and a complex electron and proton transfer chain among the subunits of the apparatus. Its main subunits (Photosystem I (PSI), bf...

Background: Panoramic imaging is one of the most common imaging methods in dentistry. Regarding the side-effects of ionizing radiation, it is necessary to survey different aspects and details of panoramic imaging. In this study, we compared the absorbed x-ray dose around two panoramic x-ray units: PM 2002 CC Proline (Planmeca, Helsinki, Finland) and Cranex Tome (Soredex, Helsinki, Finland).<br ...

Downregulation of cell–cell adhesion and upregulation of cell migration play critical roles in the conversion of benign tumors to aggressive invasive cancers. In this study, we show that changes in cell–cell adhesion and cancer cell migration/invasion capacity depend on the level of phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate [PI(4)P] in the Golgi apparatus in breast cancer cells. Attenuating SAC1, a PI(4...

conclusions this study revealed the noticeable popularity of cam in patients suffering from chronic rheumatologic diseases, mostly due to their dissatisfaction with conventional treatments. patients and methods in this cross-sectional study, 100 randomly selected patients, with different diseases, were questioned about demographic data, disease duration, the type of cam used, reasons, visit int...

Human tissues and disease models require well-defined biomimetic microenvironments. During the past decade, innovative developments in materials science, microfabrication, polymer science have provided us with ability to manipulate cellular microenvironments for regenerative medicine tissue engineering applications. Solution blow spinning is a facile fiber fabricating method that requires simpl...
