background: the present study was designed to evaluate the homing potential of mouse embryonic stem cells (esc) treated with erythropoietin (epo) in hematopoietic organs such as spleen and liver after transplantation using morphological and immuno-histochemical techniques. methods: day-four embryoid body (eb)-derived cells were dissociated and re-plated in medium in the presence and absence of ...

optimal sitting and sizing of shunt capacitor banks at the distribution networks for the purpose of power quality improvement is drawn much attention of electric power utilities in the last decades. determining the optimal number, location and sizing of capacitor using bee colony optimization algorithm (bco) is being presented in this paper. the bco algorithm is a new population based meta-heur...

background: ionizing radiation induces the production of reactive oxygen species (ros), which play an important causative role in cell death. wholebody exposure of mice to gamma radiation leads to diminution of tissue antioxidant defense systems increases the peroxidative damage to membrane lipids and damages the haematopoietic and gastrointestinal systems. tempol (tpl), a cell membranepermeabl...

introduction: various neuroregenerative procedures have been recently employed along with neurorehabilitation programs to promote neurological function after spinal cord injury (sci), and recently most of them have focused on the acute stage of spinal cord injury. in this report, we present a case of acute sci treated with neuroprotective treatments in conjunction with conventional rehabilitati...

The effects of bone marrow-conditioned medium obtained from colony-stimulating factor-producing tumor-bearing nude mice (G-BM-CM) on mouse and human granulocyte-macrophage colony formation and mouse erythroid colony and burst formation were studied. Addition of G-BM-CM into the mouse granulocyte-macrophage colony-forming system containing colony-stimulating activity more strongly inhibited gran...

background: recently, the use of granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (g-csf) has been proposed to improve pregnancy outcomes in reproductive medicine. objective: a systematic review of the current use of g-csf in patients who have difficulty conceiving and maintaining pregnancy was performed. materials and methods: two electronic databases (pubmed/ medline and scopus) were searched. study sel...

Damage to Retinal Nerve Fiber Layer can Cause Glaucoma. Glaucoma is an inflammation of the optic eye which characterized by progressive deterioration Optic Head and field view. Problems that require a classification solution are hindered large data dimensions. Artificial Bee Colony one evolution algorithms widely used for feature selection optimization. Gray level Coocurrence matrix as extracti...

Colony counting error due to indistinguishable colony overlap (i.e., masking) was evaluated theoretically and experimentally. A theoretical model to predict colony masking was used to determine colony counting efficiency by Monte Carlo computer simulation of microorganism collection and development into CFU. The computer simulation was verified experimentally by collecting aerosolized Bacillus ...
