Obesity is a chronic health condition characterized by the accumulation of excessive body fat which can lead to and exacerbate cardiovascular disease, type-II diabetes, high blood pressure, cancer through systemic inflammation. Unfortunately, visualizing key mediators inflammatory response, such as monoacylglycerol lipase (MGL) fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH), in selective manner profound cha...

A high efficiency shoot organogenesis from callus cultures and plant establishment protocol has been developed for cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L. cv SVPR-2) through shoot tip. After 6 weeks of culture, green-compact-nodular organogenic callus induction was observed on the medium fortified with (MS) basal salts, B5 vitamins, 2.0 mgl-1 of benzylaminopurine (BAP), 1.0 mgl-1 kinetin (KN), 30 gl-1 gl...

Eryngium foetidum L. is an important plant cultivated as leafy vegetable and for its essential oil, which is of high economical value in international market. Multiple shoots (17.8) were obtained through direct regeneration from leaf excised from field grown plants of E. foetidum and cultured on Linsmaier and Skoog’s Basal Medium (LSBM) fortified with BAP (1.5 mgl) and PVP (250 mgl). After subc...

Field trials with Dizigotheeca elegantissima were conducted at the experimental farm of Faculty of Agriculture, Azad University  Jiroft  in growth seasons of 2012 year. The aim of this work was to study the effect of foliar application of gibberellic acid [GA3] and benzyladenine [BA] at 0, 50, 100 and 150 mgL-1 on the vegetative growth and Photosynthetic pigments ...

Cell-surface sialic acids are essential in mediating a variety of physiological and pathological processes. Sialic acid chemistry and biology remain challenging to investigate, demanding new tools for probing sialylation in living systems. The metabolic glycan labeling (MGL) strategy has emerged as an invaluable chemical biology tool that enables metabolic installation of useful functionalities...

the objective of this study was to investigate the propensity of permethrin (ptn) to induce oxidative stress and changes in enzyme activities in liver of rainbow trout and its possible attenuation by vitamin c. forty-eight fish were randomly assigned to 1 of 6 treatment groups and their livers were used for liver perfusion method: control (0 μgl-1 permethrin and 0 mgl-1 vitamin c), ptn-0.16 (0....
