Ion ATPases in the tissues of aquatic animals are sensitive to metal exposures. Mussels filter-feeding and have a sedentary lifestyle that makes them good bio-indicator animals. Thus, present study was carried out investigate effects copper (0, 30, 90 µg/L) on activities Na-ATPase, Mg-ATPase, Ca-ATPase gill muscle freshwater mussels (Unio tigridis) different exposure durations 7, 14, 21 days). ...

Background: Polarized cells are key to the process of differentiation. Xenopus oocyte is a polarized cell that has complete blue-print to differentiate 3 germ layers following fertilization, as key determinant molecules (Proteins and RNAs) are asymmetrically localized. The objective of this work was to localize Na+, K+-ATPase activity along animal-vegetal axis of polarized Xenopus oocyte and fo...

Mussels are effective bioindicator organisms for aquatic environments. Therefore, they were often used to determine the effects of various xenobiotics in systems. There is no study our knowledge on vivo nanoparticles (NPs) activities ATPases freshwater mussels (Unio tigridis). This work demonstrates Al$_{2}$O$_{3}$, CuO, and TiO$_{2}$ NPs Na- ATPase, Ca-ATPase, Mg-ATPase gill muscle following 1...

Carbosulfan (2,3-dihydro-2,2dimethyl-7-benzofuronyl [(dibutyl amino) thio] methyl] a carbamate insecticide and acaricide was administered orally at an effective dose of 48 mg/kg/day to albino mice for 5, 10, 20 and 30 days .Control mice received similar quantities of olive oil. Daily body weights were recorded and mice were sacrificed after 24 hours after the terminal exposure. The histologic e...

Plasma membrane H+-ATPase is a major integral membrane protein with a role in various physiological processes including abiotic stress response. To study the effect of NaCl on the expression pattern of a gene encoding the plasma membrane H+-ATPase, an experiment was carried out in a completely random design with three replications. A pair of specific primers was designed based on the sequence o...

trichophyton rubrum is an anthropophilic fungus causing up to 90% of chronic cases of dermatophytosis. several properties of this fungus have been investigated so far. however, a few studies were carried out in the field of molecular biology of this fungus. in the present study, we tried to identify the subunit g of its vacuolar atpase (v-atpase). pairs of 21 nt primers were designed from highl...
