The rotation curves of a sample of 46 low- and high-surface brightness galaxies are considered in the context of Milgrom's modi_ed dynamics (MOND) to test a new interpolating function proposed by Zhao et al. (2010) [1] and compare with the results of simple interpolating function. The predicted rotation curves are calculated from the total baryonic matter based on the B-band surface photometry,...

background: gp41 of hiv (human immunodeficiency virus) is a protein that mediates fusion between viral and cellular membranes. the agent, t-20, which has been approved for hiv inhibition, can restrain gp41 function in the fusion process; nevertheless, it has disadvantages like instability, high cost of production and injection form to be delivered twice a day. methods: several molecules like nb...

objective(s): the aim of this study was to determine the important molecules involved in apoptosis induction by opium in jurkat cell line. materials and methods: jurkat cells were incubated 48 hrs with2.86×10-5 g/ml concentration of opium and apoptosis as well as expression levels of related molecules weremeasured. results: our results demonstrated that 50.3±0.2 percent of opium treated jurkat ...

Auto-reactive cells-mediated immune responses are responsible for the current tissue damages during autoimmunity. Accordingly, functional modulation of auto-reactive cells has been a pivotal aim in many of recent studies. In the current study, we investigated the possibility for insertion of regulatory molecules onto auto-reactive cells through exosomal nano-shuttles as a novel approach for phe...

Hydrogen storage capacity of Si-coated B80 fullerene was investigated based on density functional theory calculations within local density approximation and generalized gradient approximation. It is found that Si atom prefer to be attached above the center of pentagon with a binding energy of -5.78 eV. It is inferred that this binding is due to the charge transfer between the Si atom and B80 ca...

New statistic based models provide a wide area of prediction equipments for different science areas. Among these fields biology have just entered the contest of interdisciplinary sciences. Drug discovery is a long and expensive process which could be decreased with theoretical approaches. In this study, 500 reported assayed anti cancer molecules were extracted from Science Direct articles, sket...
