objective: periapical granulomas (pgs) and radicular cysts (rcs), as the most common odontogenic lesions have yet unclear pathogenesis. this study was aimed to compare pcna and ki-67 expression in pgs and rcs and evaluate their possible relationship with two lesions. methods: in this cross-sectional descriptive study, twenty pgs and twenty rcs were evaluated immunohistochemically using an anti-...

introduction: malignant astrocytic gliomas are the most common and lethal brain malignancies due to their refractory to the current therapies. nowadays, molecular targeted therapy has attracted great attention in treatment of glioma. connexin 43 (cx43) and micro ribonucleic acid- 21(mir-21) are among molecules that are involved in glioma development and progression. these molecules showed poten...

Let $G$ be a $p$-group of nilpotency class $k$ with finite exponent $exp(G)$ and let $m=lfloorlog_pk floor$. We show that $exp(M^{(c)}(G))$ divides $exp(G)p^{m(k-1)}$, for all $cgeq1$, where $M^{(c)}(G)$ denotes the c-nilpotent multiplier of $G$. This implies that $exp( M(G))$ divides $exp(G)$, for all finite $p$-groups of class at most $p-1$. Moreover, we show that our result is an improvement...

Electronic effects were investigated on the singlet–triplet energy gaps of divalent unsaturated seven- membered ring R2C6H6M (M=C, Si, Ge, Sn, Pb, R= –H, -CH3, i-Pr , t-Bu) at B3LYP/6-311++G** level. All the triplet states of R2C6H6C were more stable than the related the singlet states while all the singlet states of R2C6H6M (M= Si, Ge, Sn, Pb, R= –H, -CH3, i-Pr , t-Bu) were more stable than th...

Let $R$ be a commutative Noetherian ring. We prove that  over a local ring $R$ every finitely generated $R$-module $M$ of finite Gorenstein projective dimension has a Gorenstein projective cover$varphi:C rightarrow M$ such that $C$ is finitely generated and the projective dimension of $Kervarphi$ is finite and $varphi$ is surjective.

electrochemical oxidation of iodide has been studied in the presence of 2-thioborbituric acid using cyclic voltammetry and controlled-potential coulometry. the results indicate that, the resulting iodine takes part in halogenations reaction with 2-thiobarbituric acid. in addition, the present data are indicative of the suitability of iodide as a quasi mediator for determination of 2-thiobarbitu...
