Molecular dynamic simulations of Li+, and Br− ions in acetonitrile were carried out. The simulated structural properties compared to experimental data. solvent potentials Li+-Br−, Li+-Li+, Br−-Br− evaluated using constrained molecular dynamics (CMD) simulations, determine the contribution total force acting on solute estimate liquid arrangements according potential mean (PMF) values. PMF fricti...

Background: B cell CLL/lymphoma 2 protein, bcl-2, is an important anti-apoptotic factor that has been implicated in lithium’s neuroprotective effect. However, most studies have focused on assessing the effects of lithium in neurons, ignoring examination of bcl-2 in astrocytes, which also influence neuronal survival and are affected in bipolar disorder. The aim of this study was to evaluate whet...

Objective(s) It is believed that the mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) differentiation and proliferation are the results of activation of wnt signaling pathway. On the other hand, lithium chloride is reported to be able to activate this pathway. The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of lithium on in vitro proliferation and bone differentiation of marrow-derived MSC. Materials and ...

Electrochemical energy storage systems are categorized into different types, according to their mechanisms, including capacitors, supercapacitors, batteries and fuel cells. All battery systems include some main components: anode, cathode, an aqueous/non-aqueous electrolyte and a membrane that separates anode and cathode while being permeable to ions. Being one of the key parts of any new electr...

anaphylactic reactions can occur following the adminstration of muscle relaxants. however, it happens very rarefy wish pancuronium bromide. a case report of anaphylactic shock to pancuronium bromide, which is supported by a highly poitive skin prick test, is reported.
