Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Pathology of Alzheimer Disease Elicits an In Vivo Immunological ResponseDavid J. Bonda, Kate M. Webber, Sandra L. Siedlak et al.The mechanism(s) responsible for the loss of neurons that characterizes Alzheimer disease is incompletely understood. Nonetheless, there is considerable evidence suggestive of immune abnormalities coupled to alterations in blood-brain barrier permeability that likely play a key role in both the etiology and progression of the disease. To examine these issues further, this study was designed to examine the presence of … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 30 Jun 2007 · 7,118 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProtein Molecular Structures, Protein SubFractions, and Protein Availability Affected by Heat Processing: A ReviewPeiqiang YuThe utilization and availability of protein depended on the types of protein and their specific susceptibility to enzymatic hydrolysis (inhibitory activities) in the gastrointestine and was highly associated with protein molecular structures. Studying internal protein structure and protein subfraction profiles leaded to an understanding of the components that make up a whole protein. An understanding of the molecular structure of … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 8,294 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractParallel Approaches for Intervals Analysis of Variable Statistics in Large and Sparse Linear Equations with RHS RangesPeerayuth CharnsethikulThis study proposes an algorithm capable of working in parallel for solving large and sparse linear equations under given right hand side (RHS) ranges. A comparative study to the direct linear programming method is reported theoretically, computationally and discussed. Moreover, the approach can be adapted for the system under domain decompositions structure leading to a better efficiency experimentally. …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 5 · 31 May 2007 · 6,826 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOn the Pulsewidth Analysis in the Presence of PMD and PDL in Optical Fibers Using Neural Network AlgorithmA. Sivasubramanian, V. C. RavichandranIn long haul networks, the random birefringence induced in the optical fiber leads to a considerable Polarization Mode Dispersion (PMD). Polarization Dependent Loss (PDL) mainly occurs in optical components and depends on the state of polarization of optical signals. The presence of PMD and PDL causes pulsewidth narrowing and the pulsewidth reduction depends on states of polarization at which the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2007 · 7,055 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Role of Quality Control and Everyone’s Participation in Japan to Prevent Pollution During Last Five DecadesMohammed Matouq, Nasir Kloub, Kazue InoueEconomic Growth in Japan after World War II was very remarkable and products from its manufacturing industry were widely accepted in the world market after productivity and quality of them were tremendously improved. On the other hand, Japan soon found itself in severe environmental deterioration, due to not being paid any attention to environment. However, that pollution from industry was … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 30 Apr 2007 · 7,999 accessesView PDFCite

Mahfuzul Huque, Ataharul Huq ChowdhuryThe purpose of the study was to construct a scale to measure superstition in a rural setting. A total of 31 statements or items expressing superstition were collected through reviewing relevant literature, consultation with extension experts, social scientists, progressive farmers and local leaders Statements were carefully examined and edited as per the criteria of Edwards[1]. The statements were employed to … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2007 · 8,415 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAqueous Extract of Inonotus bliquus (Fr.) Pilat (Hymenochaetaceae) Significantly Inhibits the Growth of Sarcoma 180 by Inducing ApoptosisCaifa Chen, Weifa Zheng, Xiaowen Gao et al.Inonotus obliquus (Fr.) Pilat (Hymenochaetaceae) has been widely used as a folk medicine to treat various cancers in Russia, Poland and most of Baltic countries for literally more than four centuries. However, in spite of its therapeutic significance for cancers, this fungus has not been studied systematically for the mechanisms of antitumor activity. In this study, we report the effects … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2007 · 21,115 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Effect of Omega-3 Fatty Acids on Nerve Conduction Velocity (NCV) and F-wave Latency in Patients with Diabetic polyneuropathyNaser Zangiabadi, Mohamad N. Ahrari, Nouzar NakhaeeDiabetes mellitus with the prevalence rate of 8.9-12.3% in human population, ultimately leads to the peripheral nervous system involvement in many patients. It causes various types of polyneuropathies, which may manifest abnormalities such as impaired nerve conduction velocity (NCV) and prolonged F-wave latency. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of omega-3 fatty acids on NCV and … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2007 · 9,279 accessesView PDFCite
