Autosomal recessive congenital ichthyosis (ARCI) includes a wide range of ichthyosis phenotypes, including harlequin ichthyosis, lamellar ichthyosis (LI), congenital ichthyosiform erythroderma (CIE), and self-improving collodion ichthyosis (SICI) (1, 2). To date, 9 causative genes for ARCI have been identified (1, 2). ALOXE3 is a causative gene in LI as well as CIE, and it encodes the eLOX-3 li...

Studies have shown that oxygenated compounds are important in beverage and food products. It seems that Citrus rootstocks have a profound influence on these factors. The goal of the present study is to investigate on rootstocks and these factors. Peel oil components were extracted using cold-press method and eluted using n-hexane.  All compounds analyzed using GC and GC-MS. Data were analyzed u...

the purpose of this study was to determine the intensity influence of perform one set half squat on vertical jump performance and muscle electrical activity in adolescent athletes. the subjects were 12 adolescent boys athletes. the subjects performed one set of dynamic half-squat using low and high intensities (li= low intensity with 40% 1rm, hi= high intensity with 80% 1rm), and a control (c) ...

AIMS/INTRODUCTION Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) secreted from enteroendocrine L cells is an incretin that potentiates insulin secretion and is already applied in therapies for type 2 diabetes. However, detailed examination of L cells throughout the gastrointestinal tract remains unclear, because of difficulties in purifying scattered L cells from other cells. In the present study, we identifi...

The purpose of this article was to explain and describe how professional nurses in the health services experience difficult patients. A qualitative, descriptive research design was adopted. Data were collected by means of narratives, written by professional nurses who met the sampling criteria. The data analysis was done according to the protocol suggested by Tesch. Four major categories were i...

Angular distributions for the elastic scattering of 8 Li on 9 Be and the neutron transfer reactions Be have been measured with a 27 MeV 8 Li radioactive nuclear beam. Spectroscopic factors for 8 Li⊗n= 9 Li and 7 Li⊗n= 8 Li bound systems were obtained from the comparison between the experimental differential cross section and finite-range DWBA calculations with the code FRESCO. The spectroscopic...

We addressed the question: Is there evidence that allelic variation in a single unmeasured gene that has a large effect on maximal activity of erythrocyte sodium-lithium countertransport (Na-Li CNT) also has pleiotropic effects on variation in plasma triglyceride levels? Complex segregation analysis models that included plasma triglyceride levels as a covariate were considered as explanations f...
