neural cell adhesion molecules (ncams) are known to influence memory by affecting neural cell-cell and cell-extracellular matrix junctions. this study investigated the possible role of camp pathway in the expression of hippocampal ncam and its polysialylated derivative (psa-ncam). the following pharmacological tools were employed for manipulation of camp pathway: a) forskolin; the activator of ...

mucosa-adhesive gels can be used as a useful mean of delivering drugs to or via mucosal membranes, and in particular buccal mucosa. carbomers are among the best mucosa-adhesive materials known. the aim of this study was to compare the results obtained from the mucosa-adhesive strength of aqueous gels containing carbomers, either alone or in combination, to the data obtained from assessing the d...

dependence on chemical fertilizer continually is increasing. continual increasing of using chemicalfertilizer causes nature pollution (e.g. water contamination). this has led researchers to aggressively investigate renewable fertilizer resources, biomass, to produce organic crops and reduced wastage. wormy compost is a bulk solid and biomass feed stocks. wormy compost flow is obstacle as it oft...

in this paper, the effect of air relative humidity and capillary force on contact geometry of surfaces based on jkr model by atomic force microscopy was investigated in order to manipulate nano-particles. with transition from macro to nano-scale, the effect of surface forces becomes more significant in comparison with inertial force. because contact mechanics models are based on surface energy ...
