conclusions probable mechanism of suppression of energy generation is suppression of the rise in glucose. results listeria monocytogenes was controlled using 2 mm of osthole. treatment of l. monocytogenes by 2 mm osthole had no effect on the atp level. objectives osthole has antibacterial properties, but its mechanisms of action is still unknown. materials and methods two millimoles of osthole ...

The present work demonstrates the successful application of a simple active vibration control procedure based on structural dynamics. Based on mathematical and structural dynamics’ theories, the appropriate locations of sensor and actuator locations of the smart structure are predicted. Also, the optimum value of actuator force which controls the structural vibrations as quickly as it is possib...

Transforming growth factor beta (TGF-b) is a mediator released by nearly all cell types. It has suppression activity on the immune system, but exactly how this effect is carried out is not clear. Previous experiments showed that IgG interacts with or carriers active TGF-b, that could suppresses cytotoxic T-cell responses to an immunogenic tumor in mice. Since T cell receptor (TCR) has structura...

experimental autoimmune vitiligo was induced by the intradermal injection of the purified mushroom tyrosinase emulsified in complete freund’s adjuvant (cfa) in female c57bl/6 mice. the onset of vitiligo was characterized by hair hypopigmentation and total melanocyte depletion in the basal layer of the epidermis. oral administration of semipurified mushroom tyrosinase prevented experimental auto...

objective: nucleostemin (ns) is a recently identified gene that is expressed mainly in the nucleoli of neuronal, embryonic and mesenchymal stem cells which plays a role in their self renewal. over expression of this gene has been reported in several cancer cell lines tumoral tissues including gastric, hepatic and prostate cancer. in this study, we investigated the effects of suppression of this...

transforming growth factor beta (tgf-b) is a mediator released by nearly all cell types. it has suppression activity on the immune system, but exactly how this effect is carried out is not clear. previous experiments showed that igg interacts with or carriers active tgf-b, that could suppresses cytotoxic t-cell responses to an immunogenic tumor in mice. since t cell receptor (tcr) has structura...

computer-aided diagnosis (cad) systems can assist radiologists in several diagnostic tasks.  lung segmentation is one of the mandatory steps for initial detection of lung cancer in posterior-anterior chest radiographs. on the other hand, many cad schemes in projection chest radiography may benefit from the suppression of the bony structures that overlay the lung fields, e.g. ribs. the original ...

background and aim: sinusoidal harmonic acceleration (sha) test is one of the most effective and best-tolerated methods to assess vestibular system function, especially horizontal semicircular canal in children. a prerequisite for using this test in children, is the availability of normative data. despite of the numerous studies related to the sha in adults, few researches have been documented ...

ohtahara syndrome or ealy infantile epileptic encephalopathy is a rare cause of epileptic seizures during infancy and represents the earliest type of age related symptomatic generalized epilepsies. the main etiologic factor associated with ohtahara syndrome is cerebran dysgenesis. this case was the product of in vitro fertilization (ivf) after 18 years of infertility . neuroimaging findings con...
