In this work, linear and cyclic disulfide heptapeptides of Longicalycinin A have been successfully synthesized by solid phase methodology with Fmoc /t-Bu and solution phase, respectively. 2-Chlorotrityl chloride resin (2-CTC) was used as a solid support. The synthesized linear disulfide analogue of Longicalycinin A was cleaved from the resin as a protected peptide. The final deprotection was pe...

Notice that best proximity point results have been studied to find necessaryconditions such that the minimization problemminx∈A∪Bd(x,Tx)has at least one solution, where T is a cyclic mapping defined on A∪B.A point p ∈ A∪B is a best proximity point for T if and only if thatis a solution of the minimization problem (2.1). Let (A,B) be a nonemptypair in a normed...

In this paper, we will study the theory of cyclic homology for regular multiplier Hopf algebras. We associate a cyclic module to a triple $(mathcal{R},mathcal{H},mathcal{X})$ consisting of a regular multiplier Hopf algebra $mathcal{H}$, a left $mathcal{H}$-comodule algebra $mathcal{R}$, and a unital left $mathcal{H}$-module $mathcal{X}$ which is also a unital algebra. First, we construct a para...

Antisera to the naloxone-insensitive receptor for beta-endorphin expressed on the U937 cell line were generated by using the complementary peptide strategy. A nanopeptide complementary to a C-terminal fragment of human beta-endorphin was synthesized as predicted by reading the beta-endorphin antisense mRNA 3' to 5'. By using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, rabbit antisera specific for the pe...

objectives : microbial leakage through the implant-abutment (i-a) interface results in bacterial colonization in two-piece implants. the aim of this study was to compare microleakage rates in three types of replace abutments namely snappy, goldadapt, and customized ceramic using radiotracing. materials and methods: three groups, one for each abutment type, of five implants and one positive and ...

background: mesenchymal stem cells (mscs) can be expanded and differentiated into many mature cell types including smooth muscle cells (smcs). in addition to growth factor, cyclic stretch contributes to differentiation of stem cells. mechanical stimuli are critical to morphological changes, development, regeneration, differentiation and pathology of mesenchymal tissues. the aim of this study is...

Vertical drains and stone columns which have been used in infrastructure construction for highways, ports, coastal regions, etc., provide significant benefits for improving soil characteristics such as reducing the drainage length and accelerating the consolidation process. So the investigation of the radial consolidation is inevitable. Soils may be subjected to cyclic loading such as silos, ta...

With the expanding demand on application of magnesium alloys in automotive and aerospace industries, robust methods in fatigue characterization of commercially available magnesium alloys with high specific strength is anticipated. In this paper, rotating bending load controlled tests has been studied on specimens machined from an extrusion piece of AZ31B. Due to asymmetric and anisotropic behav...
