Skeletal muscle growth is regulated by both positive and negative factors, such as myogenic regulatory factors (MRFs) and myostatin (MSTN), and involves both hyperplasia and hypertrophy. In the present study, morphological changes during muscle development in Megalobrama amblycephala were characterized and gene expression levels were measured by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction ...

Material and Methods: HbA1C levels of 120 non-diabetic hypothyroid patients (30 microcytic hypochromic anaemia, 30 normocytic normochromic anaemia and 60 non anemic patients) with 120 age, sex, plasma glucose levels and anaemia status matched controls were assessed. Anaemia status was determined by ferritin, Haemoglobin, red cell indices and peripheral smear. Glycemic status was determined by f...

Metallic iron (Fe0) is a reactive material for treating polluted water. The effect of water salinity on the efficiency Fe0-based remediation systems not yet established. This work aims to clarify reasons why Cl− ions are often reported improve Fe0/H2O systems. Quiescent batch experiments were carried out characterize chloride (Cl−) methylene blue (MB) discoloration in presence Fe0. was used for...

Background: Gingival overgrowth is a common clinical finding that most often represents reactive hyperplasia as a result of inflammatory gingival disease related to dental plaque. Irritation fibroma (IF), pyogenic granuloma (PG), peripheral ossifying fibroma (POF), and peripheral giant cell granuloma (PGCG) are non-neoplastic enlargements of the gingiva that are categorized as reactive hyperpla...

The present study explores the solar-induced photocatalytic degradation of reactive red (RR) and turquoise (RT) dyes in a single system using TiO2 immobilized xanthan gum (TiO2/XG), synthesized sol–gel dip-coating technique for direct precipitation. SEM-EDX, XRD, FTIR, UV–Vis were used to assess characteristics resulting catalyst. Moreover, effects different operating parameters, specifically p...

Article type: Original Article Introduction: In radiotherapy treatment planning system (TPS), basic input is the data from computed tomography (CT) scan, which takes into account the effect of inhomogeneities in dose calculations. Measurement of CT numbers may be affected by scanner-specific parameters. Therefore, it is important to verify the effect of different CT scanning protocols on Hounsf...

The interaction of the dye reactive bright red 6C with bovine serum albumin has been investigated. Formation of a complex between reactive bright red 6C and bovine serum albumin was detected by use of absorption difference spectroscopy. The curves obtained by titration of the protein against the dye were recorded at different pH and ionic strength of the solution. An unusual form of titration c...

The removal of dyes from wastewater, is one of the major environmental concerns due to their high color density, and they are toxic at even low concentrations. Adsorption process by advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) has been found to be a more effective method than classical methods for treating dye-containing wastewater. This research, is to investigate the decolorization abilities of az...
