conclusions single dose therapy of mtx has sufficient power and efficacy in the treatment of ectopic pregnancy, however in patients with higher serum level of β-hcg, the successful treatment increases by using double dose method. using double dose also could decrease the necessity of operation, re-administration of mtx, and duration of hospitalization. results results showed that the rate of su...

background: no consensus has been reached on prognostic value of serum concentration of β (beta) subunit of human chorionic gonadotropin (β-hcg) in treatment response to methotrexate in management of ectopic pregnancy. therefore, the present study aimed to evaluate this subject through a systematic review and meta-analysis. materials and methods: an extensive literature search on online databas...

background: the hormones of hypothalamo-pituitary-gonadal (hpg) axis have facilitative effects on reproductive behavior in mammals. ghrelin as a starvation hormone has an inhibitory effect on hpg axis’ function. hence, it is postulated that ghrelin may reduce the sexual behavior through inhibiting of hpg axis. the aim of this study was to examine the effects of ghrelin and its antagonist, [d-ly...

background: the value of serial measurement of serum ß subunit of human chorionic gonadotropin (ßhcg) and ultrasonography in the early diagnosis of ectopic pregnancy has well established. objective: the objective of this study was to explore the diagnostic value of raising level of serum ßhcg, single measurement of progesterone (p) and estradiol (e2) in early diagnosis of ectopic pregnancy. mat...

This study was designed with the aim of exploring efficacy RNA polymerase beta subunit, rpoB gene analysis for identification streptomycetes. A characteristic marine environment distinguished by their content streptomycetes were targeted, and two organisms genus Streptomyces isolated in Saudi Arabia. The spp., named isolates EH1 EH2 subjected to regular phenotypic characterization including mor...

hemoglobin is a tetrameric oxygen transport protein in animal bodies. however, there is a paucity of information regarding differences between alpha and beta subunits of hemoglobin in terms of oxygen affinity. the sequential model of koshland, nemthy and filmer (knf model) has attributed similar affinities to both alpha and beta subunits. the main purpose of the present study is to construct a ...

Strains of Azotobacter vinelandii which contain defined deletions within the nifD and nifK genes which encode, respectively, the alpha and beta subunits of the MoFe protein of nitrogenase were analyzed. When synthesized without its partner, the beta subunit accumulated as a soluble beta 4 tetramer. In contrast, when the alpha subunit was present without its partner, it accumulated primarily as ...

By using the purified rat liver protein for reference in electrophoresis and peptide mapping experiments, I have identified the beta subunit of mitochondrial F1-ATPase and its cytoplasmic precursor in two-dimensional gel patterns of proteins from S49 mouse lymphoma cells. The beta subunit precursor is a substrate for cAMP-dependent phosphorylation during its synthesis. Normally, both nonphospho...
