Introduction: The objective of this work was to investigate the therapeutic effect of a combination of hyperthermia at 43oC exposured for 20, 40, 60 min with 6MeV electron beams at different radiation doses (2, 4, 6 Gy) compared to radiation alone.   Materials and Methods: In this in vitro study, HeLa cells were exposed to either: 6MeV electron beams at diffe...

Methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA) has previously been shown to produce a positive conditioned place preference (CPP) among rats. Here the effects of doses of a specific 5-HT3 antagonist, MDL72222, on MDMA's ability to produce a CPP were assessed. A dose of MDL72222 (0.03 mg/kg) blocked the establishment of a MDMA CPP. These results support the suggestions that compounds affecting the 5-HT3 r...

Background: Hemorrhagic Transformation (HT) of Ischemic Stroke (IS) is a detrimental complication. This study investigated the association between serum ferritin level and HT in patients with massive IS of middle cerebral artery.   Methods: Thirty patients with massive IS of middle cerebral artery were enrolled in this prospective cohort study. They were divided into two groups based on...

Objective: Although pharmacological studies have indicated that serotonin (5-HT)-evoked contraction of the human coronary artery is mediated by 5-HT -like and 5-HT receptors, the gene expression of 5-HT receptors is still unclear. We examined mRNA expression of 1 2 5-HT and 5-HT receptor subtypes in human coronary arteries. Methods: Total RNA was extracted from human coronary arteries of 14 1 2...

Helically twisted photonic crystal fibers (HT-PCFs) provide additional opportunities for controlling the light propagation characteristics and improving sensing performances. In this paper, a toluene gold wire-filled HT-PCF was proposed designed high sensitivity temperature sensing. The influences of structure parameters on confinement loss, sensitivity, resolution were investigated. For optimi...

The post-processing on the additively manufactured component is of huge interest as key to tailor microstructure obtain certain mechanical properties. In this present study, effects hot isostatic pressing, well heat treatment microstructure, phase configuration and properties laser powder bed fused (LPBF) IN718 superalloy were systematically investigated. Three different post-processes studied ...

We examine the reverse mathematical strength of a variation Hindman’s Theorem (HT) constructed by essentially combining HT with Thin Set to obtain principle that we call thin-HT. This states every coloring c:N→N has an infinite set S⊆N whose finite sums are thin for c, meaning there is i c(s)≠i all nonempty s finitely many distinct elements S. show computable instance thin-HT such solution comp...

Abstract Epoxy resin has been widely applied in coating preparation, due to its excellent properties. The anti‐corrosion performance improvement of epoxy‐based coatings attracted much attention. synergistic effect the barrier function two‐dimensional fillers and slow release inhibiter proven be an effective way improve coatings. In this work, phytic acid (PA) intercalated hydrotalcite (HT) was ...

The rat dominant hairless gene (Ht) of the WBN/Ila-Ht rat causes atrichosis in Ht/Ht and hypotrichosis in Ht/+. Furthermore the Ht/Ht shows signs of abnormal keratinization and almost all of the Ht/Ht die in an immature stage before weaning in the conventional environment. Ht/+ was affected by dermatitis caused by Staphylococcus aureus, suggesting that the gene Ht might involve defense mechanis...
