abstract   background: the survival curves generally have been used for analysis of cell survival under stress conditions. they depict the relationship between the fraction of cells retaining their reproductive integrity and the absorbed dose. the median lethal dose, lethal concentration, 50% (lc 50 ) of a  toxin ,  radiation , or  pathogen  is the  dose required to kill half the members of a t...

adequate bond strength between glass ionomer cements and composite resin is necessary for the success of the sandwich technique.this study assessed the micro-shear bond strength of composite resin to glass-ionomer cements (gic) using self-etch adhesives with different ph values.one hundred specimens (6×4×2 mm) were made using fuji ii and fuji ii lc gics and treated with different adhesives as f...

background as most hbv-related acute-on-chronic liver failure (aclf) have concurrent cirrhosis, it is important to clarify the association of viral factors with aclf with or without cirrhosis. objectives the aim of this study was to analyze the association of hbv genotypes and mutations with aclf development underlying different chronic liver diseases. patients and methods eighty-seven aclf pat...

objective: lc/na system is activator of hypothalamic–pituitar–adrenal (hpa) axis and cold stress triggers an equally robust increase in plasma na. increased lhrh content probably due to absence or decrease of ne release from the lc and positive feedback action of e2 on lh secretion show that in late proestrous phase na, lh and e2 have a strong link. this study was conducted to evaluate the effe...

Objective(s): This study investigated the role of locus coeruleus (LC) nucleus TRPV1 receptors (TRPV1r) in the expression and development of morphine physical dependence by intra-LC administration of AMG9810 (selective TRPV1r antagonist) in male Wistar rats. Materials and Methods: For assessing the development of morphine dependence, AMG9810 (0.0...
