to study the effect of seed treatment on damage of harmful moths of sugar beet, an experiment was conducted in rcbd with nine treatments in four replications in karaj for three years (1996-1998). the treatments were applied as follows: t1, check, t2, t3 and t4, sugar beet seeds treated with imidacloprid, fibronil and orten, respectively; t5, pelleted seeds without insecticide; t6, t7 and t8, pe...

β-1,3-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase-8 (β3Gn-T8) is the most recently identified enzyme in the β3Gn-T family, but its biological function is poorly understood. To elucidate the effects of β3Gn-T8 on gastric cancer behavior, β3Gn-T8 was down-regulated in AGS cells using small interfering RNA (siRNA). The mRNA and protein expression levels of β3Gn-T8 were detected using RT-PCR and Western blotti...

We show from real-space Hartree-Fock calculations within the extended Hubbard model that next-nearest neighbor (t8) hopping processes act to suppress the formation of static charge stripes. This result is confirmed by investigating the evolution of charge-inhomogeneous corral and stripe phases with increasing t8 of both signs. We propose that large t8 values in YBCO prevent static stripe format...

The present investigation the effect of different microbial culture on growth, yield and quality Sponge Gourd (Luffa cylindrica L.) was undertaken at Vegetable Research Farm, Department Horticulture, Naini Agricultural Institute, Sam Higginbottom University Agriculture, Technology & Sciences, Prayagraj (UP) during 2022. experiment laid out in a Randomized Block Design with 10 tratment viz.,...

BACKGROUND It is not yet clear if blood pressure and renal function changes evolve differently in children with a congenital or acquired solitary functioning kidney. This study aims to assess if there are any differences between these two types of solitary kidney patients. METHODS Current research is a retrospective study assessing the evolution of glomerular filtration rate, proteinuria, and...

This investigation aimed to assess the influence of soil-applied vermicompost, nitrogen and zinc on vegetative growth parameters, yield, mineral nutrient concentration fruits okra (Abelmoschus esculentus L. Moench). The experiment was laid out in a Completely Randomized Design followed by three replications. Data were subjected analysis variance mean values compared using Tukey’s Range Test at ...

Short-course preoperative radiotherapy (SC-RT) followed by total mesorectal excision (TME) is one therapeutic option for locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC) patients. Since radio-induced DNA damage may affect tumor immunogenicity, Myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) and T regulatory cells (Tregs) were evaluated in 13 patients undergoing SC-RT and TME for LARC. Peripheral Granulocytic-MDS...

We present the discovery of 11 new T dwarfs, found during the course of a photometric survey for mid-to-late T dwarfs in the 2MASS Point Source Catalog and from a proper motion selected sample of ultracool dwarfs in the 2MASS Working Database. Using the NASA Infrared Telescope Facility SpeX spectrograph, we obtained low-resolution (R∼150) spectroscopy, allowing us to derive near-infrared spectr...

Case summary A 12-year-old domestic shorthair cat was presented with acute non-painful hindlimb proprioceptive ataxia localising to T3-L3 spinal cord segments. MRI revealed paravertebral muscular hyperintensity on T2-weighted images at the level of T7-T8 vertebrae. The cat improved on conservative management but deteriorated 3 months later. Repeated MRI showed meningeal enhancement at the same ...
