Telomeres are repeating DNA at chromosome ends. Telomere length (TL) declines with age in most human tissues, and shorter TL is thought to accelerate senescence. In contrast, older men have sperm with longer TL; correspondingly, older paternal age at conception (PAC) predicts longer TL in offspring. This PAC-effect could be a unique form of transgenerational genetic plasticity that modifies som...

Objective: The discovery of telomere length (TL) as a biomarker of cellular aging and correlate of age-related disease has generated a new field of research in the biology of healthy aging. Although the most common method of sample collection for TL is venous blood draw, less-invasive DNA collection methods are becoming more widely used. However, how TL relates across tissues derived from these...

b a ckground: the management of internal mammary (im) nodes in breast cancer lacks a well-defined consensus. lymphoscintigraphy identifies up to one-third of breast cancer patients with extra-axillary drainage, which is mainly located in the im chain. our aim in this meta-analysis is to identify the lymphoscintigraphy technique variables that effect im node identification. m ethods: an internet...

backgrounds: thallium-201 is produced through 203tl (p, 3n) 201pb 201tl reaction by cyclotron. this radioisotope has known as one of the cyclotron radioisotopes which is used for myocardial perfusion in the coronary artery disease, tl-201 after chemical purification and quality control in the form of 201tl-chlorid is ready to send to the hospitals. materials and methods: in this work the effect...

This experiment was carried out on 123 Farahani ewes from a herd in Delijan city in Markazi province of Iran to determine the best short-term method for oestrus synchronization. Ewes were divided into five experimental groups randomly: group 1) use of controlled intervaginal drug release devices (CIDR) for 7 days with intramuscular (IM) injection of PGF2α on zero day and IM injection of 500 IU ...

Biochemical study of thymus leukemia antigen (TL) from thymocytes of various Tla genotypes and from leukemia cells revealed features that, given present evidence, are peculiar to TL among class I products of the H-2:Qa:Tla region of chromosome 17. Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) of TL from thymocytes of all TL+ mouse strains, precipitated by anti-TL antiseru...

Cell surface antigens of the thymus-leukemia (TL) 1 system in the mouse are detectable only on thymocytes and cells of certain leukemias {1-3). Although TL antigens are not expressed on thymocytes of all mouse strains, leukemias developing in T L strains may be phenotypically TL+, suggesting that TL structural genes may be present in all mouse strains, and possibly in all cells (2). The appeara...

Transcript leaders (TLs) can have profound effects on mRNA translation and stability. To map TL boundaries genome-wide, we developed TL-sequencing (TL-seq), a technique combining enzymatic capture of m(7)G-capped mRNA 5' ends with high-throughput sequencing. TL-seq identified mRNA start sites for the majority of yeast genes and revealed many examples of intragenic TL heterogeneity. Surprisingly...

Forestry and agricultural industries constitute highly relevant economic activities globally. They generate large amounts of residues rich in lignocellulose that have the potential to be valorized used different industrial processes. Producing renewable fuels high-value-added compounds from lignocellulosic biomass is a key aspect sustainable strategies central biorefinery concept. In this study...

This paper studies knowledge representation in multi-agent environment. We investigate technique for computation truth-values of statements based at new temporal, agent’s-knowledge logic TL Dist . A logical language, mathematical symbolic models and a temporal logic TL KnI,U Dist based at these models are suggested. We find an algorithm which computes theorems of TL Dist and satisfiability of s...
