BACKGROUND When evaluating new reperfusion regimens for ST elevation MI, it is important to adjust for factors that influence the likelihood of achieving normal epicardial flow and complete ST resolution. METHODS AND RESULTS A total of 610 patients from TIMI 14 contributed to the angiographic analyses. The electrocardiographic analyses were based on 544 patients from TIMI 14 and 763 patients ...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE ET is considered in selected patients with AIS with persistent arterial occlusion after receiving IVT. Limited data exist on the safety of IA high doses of UK and RT for ET. We investigated any correlation between IA doses of UK or RT and safety outcomes in patients who underwent ET. MATERIALS AND METHODS We identified all patients from our stroke registry who received ...

conclusion: the newly produced recombinant protein bmk revealed to be immunogenic. moreover, anti-bmk antibodies produced in mice were able to recognize both the recombinant bmk neurotoxin and the one in m. eupeus crude venome. taken together, the molecular characterization and recombinant production of the iranian scorpion m. eupeus venom component can serve as a new probe for further studies ...

background : toxoplasma gondii is an obligate intracellular protozoan parasite, capable of infecting all species of mammals including man. congenital toxoplasmosis is more important during pregnancy for the first time. in this study we expressed and purified p43 toxoplasma gondii tachyzoite and bradyzoite specific surface antigen. methods : the recombinant pgemex-1 contained toxoplasma p43 codi...

conclusions these results demonstrated that the recombinant lysostaphin produced in this study was able to kill nasal s. aureus in rats. it can be recommended for human clinical trial studies. results recombinant lysostaphin at 100 μg/ml concentration showed a significant decrease of the optical density compared to the control samples. the in vivo study demonstrated that a single dose (200 μg/d...

Background: Thrombopoietin (TPO) is an important cytokine that has a critical role in regulating hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) proliferation and megakaryocyte differentiation. Because of scares amount of this protein in human plasma, in many biotechnological centers around the world, recombinant production of this protein has been carried out. This study was aiming to gene cloning and express...

background: the witches’ broom disease of lime caused by candidatus phytoplasma aurantifolia, is the most devastating disease of acidian lime in the southern parts of iran. objectives: at present, no effient method has been developed for controlling the disease, therefore quarantine approaches such as early detection and subsequent eradication of infected trees is very important. toward this ...
