We tested the hypothesis that lysophosphatidylcholine (lyso-PC) could activate protein kinase C in intact vascular segments and sought to examine some of the physiological consequences of this activation. In segments of rabbit aorta, the patterns of protein phosphorylation determined by two-dimensional electrophoresis stimulated by lyso-PC and 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate (TPA) were sim...

protein and energy are the two major components of feed that influence performance of the growing and fattening lambs. provision of the quality of protein in the lamb’s diet does not only improve the animal performance but also ensures profitable animal production. different vegetable protein sources are used to formulate the rations for growing and fattening lambs. these protein sources differ...

Abstract Very low-protein (VLP) diets are beneficial for reducing the nitrogen excretion from swine production, but these depress performance of pigs while supplemented with first four limiting amino acids (FFL; i.e. Lys, Met, Thr and Trp). The objective this study was to investigate effect supplementation Val Ile above NRC (2012) levels on performance, thermal radiation blood metabolites fed V...

neonatal purpura fulminans is a rare and life threatening disease that can be inherited or acquired in etiology. it manifests as dic and extensive subcutaneous thrombosis. the condition is often fatal unless there is prompt diagnosis, and judicious therapy. the most important causes of this condition are infections and congenital deficiency of anticoagulant proteins c and s.in the case of pc (p...

Protein C (PC) is an essential vitamin K-dependent protein that regulates thrombosis and hemostasis in the body. A mutation PROC gene on chromosome 2q14.3 results PC deficiency. The clinical presentation of deficiency can vary, ranging from a single vein to disseminated intravascular coagulation, purpura fulminans, or even life-threatening complications such as sepsis. Here, we present case 37-...

background: nephrotic syndrome is a disorder that leads to hyperlipidemia. l-carnitine and genistein can effect on lipid metabolism and the syndrome. in the present study, we have delved into the separate and the twin-effects of l-carnitine and genistein on the gene expressions of hmg-coa reductase and ldl receptor in experimental nephrotic syndrome. methods: in this controlled experimental stu...

PURPOSE Primary tumor growth is usually assessed by measuring tumor mass or volume, under the assumption that such variables correlate with the contents of tumor cells. However, tumors are complex interacting mixtures of tumor cells and host components. The different sensitivity of such components to cytostatic agents should be taken into consideration when evaluating the effectiveness of antin...
