The main objective for the present research is to assess effect of cyclic starvation and L- carnitine supplementation on growth (body final weight, hepatosomatic index (HSI), daily growth rate (DGI), feed conversion ratio (FCR) and voluntary feed intake (VFI)), body compositions (crude protein, crude lipid, ash and moisture), biochemical (plasma total protein, glucose, cholesterol, triglyceride...

BACKGROUND Vessel dilator and kaliuretic peptide have anticancer effects in human prostate adenocarcinomas. MATERIALS AND METHODS Vessel dilator, kaliuretic peptide and cyclic GMP's effects on ERK 1/2 kinase were examined in human prostate adenocarcinoma cells. RESULTS Vessel dilator and kaliuretic peptide decreased the activation of ERK 1/2 over a concentration range of 0.01 microM to 1 mi...

Bradykinin, 1-100 mug/ml, produced a rapid rise in the concentration of 3':5'-guanosine monophosphate (cyclic GMP) and 3':5'-adenosine monophosphate (cyclic AMP) in slices of guinea pig lung. Concentrations of both nucleotides reached a maximum in about 2 min, then declined to a basal levels in 6-12 min. The transient nature of the effect was presumbaly due to the rapid destruction of bradykini...

Inositol 2-phosphate (Ins(2)P) has been identified in several cell types. The cellular levels of Ins(2)P appear to be directly correlated with the levels of inositol 1:2-cyclic phosphate (cIns(1:2)P) (Ross, T. S., Wang, F. P., and Majerus, P. W. (1992) J. Biol. Chem. 267, 19919-19923). In this study we have detected an enzyme in extracts from CV-1 cells and rat cerebellum that converts cIns(1:2...

In this paper, we study the structure of cyclic, quasi cyclic, constacyclic codes and their skew codes over the finite ring R. The Gray images of cyclic, quasi cyclic, skew cyclic, skew quasi cyclic and skew constacyclic codes over R are obtained. A necessary and sufficient condition for cyclic (negacyclic) codes over R that contains its dual has been given. The parameters of quantum error corr...
