Previous work has demonstrated that intergenic V(D)J rearrangement, a process referred to as trans-rearrangement, occurs at an unexpectedly high frequency. These rearrangements generate novel V(D)J combinations which could conceivably have some role in the normal immune system, and since they probably arise through chromosomal rearrangements akin to those associated with lymphoid neoplasia, the...

An isomeric mixture of linoleic acid hydro peroxides, 13-hydroperoxy-cis9 trans-II-octadecadienoic acid (79%) a~d 9-hydroperoxy-eis-12,trans-IO-octadecadienoic acid (21 %), was decomposed homolytically by Fe(I!) in an ethanolwater solution. In one series of experiments, the hydroperoxides were decomposed by catalytic concentrations of Fe (II). The 10.5 M Fe(III) used to initiate the decompositi...

A case of post tricuspid valve pseudoaneurysmoccurring 10 days after inferior wall myocardial infarction and diagnosed on trans-thoracic echocardiography.To the best our knowledge, this is first reported such a complication at sub-tricuspid location.

The effect of nutrition on milk fat yield and composition has largely been investigated in cows and goats, with some differences for fatty acid (FA) composition responses and marked species differences in milk fat yield response. Recently, the characterization of lipogenic genes in ruminant species allowed in vivo studies focused on the effect of nutrition on mammary expression of these genes, ...

Two new compounds, 4S,10R-dihydroxy-11-methyl-dodec-2-en-1,4-olide (1) (butyrolactone-type) and cyclo-(4-trans-6-dihydroxy-proline-D-leucine) (2) (diketopiperazine-type), as well as one known 4S,10-dihydroxy-10-methyl-dodec-2-en-1,4-olide (3) and three known diketopiperazines, cyclo-(L-proline-L-leucine) (4), cyclo-(4-trans-hydroxy-L-proline-L-leucine) (5), and cyclo-(4-trans-hydroxy-L-proline-...

This study was conducted to compare the social adjustment of the mothers with transsexual children with that of mothers with normal kids in order to find out the negative impacts of having a trans child on social adjustment of mothers. This research had a causal-comparative design. The statistical population of the study comprised mothers with trans children referred to Tehran Psychiatric Insti...

introduction: pleomorphic adenomas are tumors mostly originating from salivary glands. these lesions in the larynx are very rare. case report: we report a rare case of pleomorphic adenoma that originated from the mucosal lining, just above the glottic area at the level of the laryngeal ventricle in a 55-year-old female patient. the tumor could not be palpated easily but was observed in the ct s...
