Repeated injections of colloidal copper, hirudin, nucleoprotein, and casein, which have a definite retarding influence on tumor growth, given to mice during the process of wound healing do not produce any noticeable influence on the course of regeneration.

Attempts at flood management during the 20th century resulted in more flood disasters. To gain a better understanding of what went wrong, it is necessary to examine historical evidence, seek ancient wisdom and compare practices of flood management in different countries. This study examines flood management concepts and practices in China and Japan during different periods of time in history an...

The speed of site-specific binding of transcription factor (TFs) proteins with genomic DNA seems to be strongly retarded by the randomly occurring sequence traps. Traps are those DNA sequences sharing significant similarity with the original specific binding sites (SBSs). It is an intriguing question how the naturally occurring TFs and their SBSs are designed to manage the retarding effects of ...

In recent decades, greenhouse gas emission and global warming are the major threat to climatic change variability. The quality of concrete can be enhanced by addition a supplementary cementitious material portland cement. this study, fly ash is utilized as supplemental (SCM). purpose research test study mechanical thermal properties blended containing ordinary cement, zinc sulphate well investi...

Owing to the strong public concerns about environmental protection and potential energy crisis (fossil fuels), there is a global trend of substitution petrochemical-based polymers towards biopolymers. Polybutylene succinate (PBS), as an emerging biobased biodegradable polymer, has drawn great deal interest in number fields. However, high flammability PBS constitutes major obstacle for its appli...

The objective of improving health is intimately associated with preventing and delaying age-related diseases. Nutritional and pharmacological approaches aimed at retarding aging are uncovering mechanisms, whose definitive roles in cell and tissue physiology need to be defined. In this article we hypothesize that peroxisome proliferator activated receptor (PPAR)-modulation is a pivotal process t...
