The Ets family of transcription factors function as key regulators of multiple aspects of immune cell development and function. To date, Ets-1 has been implicated in regulating early stages of thymic maturation and lymphocyte function and homeostasis. This report describes a novel role for Ets-1 in supporting later stages of thymic selection, in that positive selection of MHC class I-restricted...

due to medical and dietary properties of the plantago major l. seed, it is necessary to know engineering properties in order to design post harvest equipments. engineering properties of plantago major l. seed was determined only at the moisture content of 7.98% dry basis, because of it produces mucilaginous components when it is soaked in water. the average of length, width, surface area, spher...

The chemical composition of plant polyphenols Plantago major L. and lanceolata growing in Uzbekistan was studied. More than 20 compounds, including 7 flavonoids, 9 phenolic acids, 8 hydrolysable tannins, the ages which have been determined using physicochemical methods research isolated from plants. From P. L., along with well-known such as gallic acid, rutin, luteolin, isorhamnetin, hyperoside...

background: cutaneous leishmaniasis caused by l. major is an important public health problem in endemic areas. the aim of this study was to explore the therapeutic effect of microwave and or infrared radiation in the treatment of lesion induced in balb/c mice by l. major inoculation. methods: the footpad lesion was induced in balb/c mice by inoculation of l. major promastigotes subcutaneously. ...
