purpose: the aim of this study was to test the in vitro sensitivity of lymphocytes of patients with head and neck cancer against gamma irradiation and also to find out if the frequencies of chromosomal aberrations correlate with side effects of radiotherapy. patients and methods : peripheral blood of 101 patients with head and neck cancer was collected before the onset of radiotherapy, cultured...

introduction: an effective vaccine against hcv infection is not available. the non-structural protein 3 (ns3) of the virus as an important immunogenic candidate has been utilized in various modules. nanostructured polymers have been recently used for efficient vaccine and drug delivery. the aim of the current study was the synthesis of rns3-g2 conjugate and preliminary evaluation of its immunog...

Objective(s) Two new adjuvants from natural animal lipids (G2) and bacterial polysaccharide extracts (PC) were previously prepared by our group and showed a reduction in tracheal responsiveness. The aim of this study was to evaluate the preventive effect of recently introduced natural products (G2 and PC) on the development of asthma. Materials and Methods Asthma was induced using a standard...

In this note, the concepts of (G1,G2)-open, (G1,G2)-closed, (G1,G2)-quotient and (G1,G2)-perfect mappings on arbitrary sets are introduced some theorems them established firstly. particular, results improve corresponding in [17]. Secondly, we give a partial answer to question posed by L. Liu [14]. Finally, properties G-topological groups, G-connectedness totally G-disconnectedness groups discus...

Background: To evaluate impact of spironolactone (S) on pulmonary toxicity of concomitant use of thoracic radiotherapy (RT) and trastuzumab (T).  Materials and Methods: Eighty rats were divided into eight groups: group (G) 1 was control group; G2, G3 and G4 were RT, S and T groups; G5, G6, G7 and G8 were RT+T, T+S, RT+S and RT+T+S groups respectively. Rats were sacrificed at 6 hour, 21 and 100 ...

Progress in the theoretical description of B-meson decays, in particular decays to light hadrons, is reviewed. The factorization properties of such decays can be analyzed using the softcollinear effective theory. Applications of the effective theory to both inclusive and exclusive decays are discussed.
