objective: to compare immunogenicity of a recombinant hepatitis b (hb) vaccine in two groups of neonates born in two cities of iran with different geographic and ethnic backgrounds.   materials and methods: ten micrograms of a recombinant hb vaccine was administered under field condition to iranian healthy neonates at 0, 1.5 and 9 months intervals. the subjects consisted of two groups of 290 an...

Neuropeptide Y (NPY) is an inhibitory neuromodulator expressed abundantly in the central nervous system that is suspected of being an endogenous antiepileptic agent that can control propagation of limbic seizures. Electrophysiological and pharmacological data suggest that these actions of NPY are mediated by G protein-coupled NPY Y2 and NPY Y5 receptors. To determine whether the NPY Y5 receptor...

Note Loss of the Y chromosome from individual metaphases is common in metaphase cells from both PHAstimulated lymphocytes and spontaneously dividing bone marrow cells. The frequency of Y loss is greater in older men, and the size of the 45,X,-Y cell population probably increases gradually with advancing age. (In females, a corollary loss of one X chromosome also occurs with advancing age.) This...

We consider the coupled system$F(x,y)=G(x,y)=0$,where$$F(x, y)=bs 0 {m_1}   A_k(y)x^{m_1-k}mbox{ and } G(x, y)=bs 0 {m_2} B_k(y)x^{m_2-k}$$with entire functions $A_k(y), B_k(y)$.We    derive a priory estimates  for the sums of the rootsof the considered system andfor the counting function of  roots.
