Introduction: Neurotensin (NT) is a tridecapeptide that binds specifically to neurotensin receptors. Several forms of cancer, including small cell lung cancer, colon, pancreatic and prostate carcinomas especially exocrine pancreatic carcinomas express receptors for neurotensin peptide. Radiolabeled neurotensin derivatives with a high affinity for these receptors might be used for scintigraphy. ...

background: citrus aurantium is a small citrus tree, with scented white flowers. the c. aurantium is used in asian herbal medicine primarily to treat digestive problems. objective: the goal of this study is to investigate the effect of c. aurantium flower's aqueous extract on uterine contraction in presence of some known uterus stimulants. materials and methods: in experimental study 30 virgin ...

Objective(s): Prostaglandins have been shown to mediate the gastro-protective effect of sodium hydrosulfide (NaHS) but effect of NaHS on mRNA expression of prostaglandin E2 receptors (EP1, 3-4; EPs) has not been investigated. Therefore, this study designed to evaluate the effect of NaHS on mRNA expression of EPs receptors in response to mucosal acidification and distention-induced gastric acid ...

background and objective: breast cancer is the commonest cancer of indian women. estrogen and progesterone expression is seen in benign breast lesions and in breast carcinoma associated with good prognostic parameters and it correlates well with response to hormone therapy. although a lot of studies have been conducted in the past on hormone receptor expression in breast cancer and few have cor...

conclusions p. gingivalis and p. intermedia could play a role in implant failure by changing the expression profiles of genes related to bone formation and resorption. results viability was reduced to 56.8% (p. gingivalis) and 52.75% (p. intermedia) at 1000 multiplicity. amongst 48 genes examined, expressions of bmper, smad1, il8 and nfrkb were found to be highly upregulated by both bacterial c...

Breast/mammary cancer is the most common in women due to abandoned breast tissue growth. Many therapies and treatments are available for treatment. However, each therapy or treatment has its side effect. The natural compound uncovered a significant influence on development of contemporary with reduced effects. But it lags behind race lesser bioavailability indecorous delivered dosage form. In t...
