Intraflagellar transport (IFT) moves multiple protein particles composed of two biochemically distinct complexes, IFT-A and IFT-B, bi-directionally within cilia and is essential for cilia assembly and maintenance. We identified an ORF from the Tetrahymena macronuclear genome sequence, encoding IFT122A, an ortholog of an IFT-A complex protein. Tetrahymena IFT122A is induced during cilia regenera...

In 14 patients undergoing open-heart operations the haemodynamic effects of diazepam 0.4 mgkg(-1) followed by ketamine 2 mg kg(-1) were studied. In eight patients undergoing coronary bypass surgery, the mean arterial pressure decreased significantly after diazepam from 90.3 +/-7.4 (SEM) to 78.0 +/-5.0 mm Hg (P less than 0.05). However, no changes occurred in six patients undergoing valve replac...

Abstract Fly ash represents a promising alternative source of rare earth elements (REE). However, information on REE containing mineral phases and their association with other fly components, vital for recovery from ash, is currently lacking. Herein, the mass fraction, distribution, crystallography solid-state chemistry REE, U Th in Nigerian simulated samples were characterised using range labo...

The hormonal responses to anaesthesia and cardiac surgery were studied in 20 patients. Ten patients were anaesthetized with fentanyl 60 microgram kg-1 and nitrous oxide in oxygen and 10 with etomidate 0.3 mgkg-1 and nitrous oxide in oxygen plus halothane. There were no significant changes in cortisol, growth hormone or insulin concentrations in response to surgery in either group, although cort...
