Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLeishmania donovani: Immunomodulatory Role of 63KDa Leishmania Antigen in the Promotion of IFN-gamma Response (VL vs HIV-VL Co-infection)Pranati, Sanjiva Bimal, K. Pandey et al.Cytokine behavior of T-lymphocytes is not very clear when a patient is co-infected with Leishmania donovani and HIV. To achieve this we studied groups of patients comprising of VL infected, HIV infected and HIV-VL co-infected cases. As compared to lone infections by either of the infecting agent, the co-infection cases showed greatly diminished CD4 T-cell counts and slightly enhanced values … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2006 · 7,005 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLoss of Morphine-induced Suppression of NK Cell activity and T-cell Functions in µ-Opioid Receptor Knockout MiceRichard J. Weber, Ricardo Gomez-Flores, Ichiro Sora, George R. UhlIn vivo administration of µ-opioid receptor selective agonists to various species is known to suppress lymphocyte, NK cell, and macrophage functions, in addition to mediate pain relief and euphoria. Using a mouse model in which the µ-opioid receptor gene was disrupted by targeted homologous recombination, we explored the involvement of this receptor in natural killer (NK) cell activity and T … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2006 · 6,941 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFabrication of 3-D Porous Mg/Zn doped Tricalcium Phosphate Bone-Scaffolds via the Fused Deposition ModellingSamar Jyoti Kalita, Melissa FergusonThree dimensionally interconnected porous resorbable beta-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) ceramic scaffolds were developed using the indirect fused deposition modelling process. β-TCP was doped with Mg and Zn, separately, to improve its sintering kinetics and facilitate fabrication of viable porous scaffolds. Effects of Mg and Zn on sintering kinetics and densification of β-TCP were studied. Fabricated porous scaffolds were tested for their … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2006 · 6,933 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFrequency Behavior of a Quartz Crystal Microbalance (Qcm) in Contact with Selected SolutionsZ. A. Talib, Z. Baba, S. Kurosawa et al.A device was constructed to monitor viscosity of solutions using fundamental frequency of 9 MHz and 10 MHz quartz crystal. Piezoelectric quartz crystals with gold electrodes were mounted by O-ring in between liquid flow cell. Only one side of the crystal was exposed to the solutions which were pumped through silicon tube by a peristaltic pump. The measured frequency shift … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 5 · 31 May 2006 · 7,518 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHepatoprotective Activity of Aqueous Ethanolic Extract of Chamomile capitula in Paracetamol Intoxicated Albino RatsAjay k. Gupta, Neelam MisraHepatoprotective activity of aqueous ethanolic extract of Chamomile recutita capitula against paracetamol induced hepatic damage in albino rats was observed. In the present study the effect of aqueous ethanolic extract of Chamomile recutita capitula on blood and liver glutathione, Na+ K+- ATPase activity, serum marker enzymes, serum bilirubin, glycogen and thiobarbutiric acid reactive substances against paracetamol induced damage in rats … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2006 · 18,953 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractClozapine and its Major Stable Metabolites, N-desmethylclozapine and Clozapine N-oxide do not Affect Human Bone Marrow Stromal Cells in vitroAvril Pereira, Brian DeanTreatment of refractory schizophrenia with the atypical antipsychotic drug clozapine is associated with life-threatening agranulocytosis, characterised by a drop in neutrophil count. Theoretically, toxicity may be accounted for by direct action of parent drug or one of its stable metabolites on bone marrow stroma given importance of these cells to neutrophil maturation. Effects of clozapine, N-desmethylclozapine and clozapine N-oxide on … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2006 · 7,111 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Effect of an Organic Pesticide on Mortality and Learning in Africanized Honey Bees (Apis mellifera L.) in BrasilCharles I. Abramson, Jordan B. Singleton, Maritza K. Wilson et al.Seven experiments were conducted. First, the influence of the consumption of different concentrations of the organic pesticide Bioganic® on mortality was assessed at 11 different time intervals in Africanized honey bees (Apis mellifera L.) as was direct application of the pesticide to the abdomen. Results indicated that the pesticide was not lethal to bees regardless of concentration at any intervals … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2006 · 6,976 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInvestigation of Lignite and Firewood Co-combustion in a Furnace for Tobacco Curing ApplicationNakorn Tippayawong, Chutchawan Tantakitti, Satis ThavornunCo-combustion of lignite and firewood was investigated for an application in tobacco curing industry in Northern Thailand. Extensive experiments have been carried out in a newly developed furnace suitable for small curing unit, in place of locally made furnace. The aim of this investigation is to evaluate the performance of the combustion chamber in the required thermal output range for … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2006 · 6,905 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalysis of the Over-Voltages Produced by Lightning Strokes in the Power Transmission System in the Southern Region of Saudi ArabiaA. U. Al-Abdulaziz, S. M. Bashi, A. A. AlthubaitiThis study deals with the simulation of lightning strokes and their effects on power network in the southern region of Saudi Arabia. The network consists of main generating stations, substations and the power transmission lines. The transient performance of the system has been investigated using the EMTP (Electro Magnetic Transient Program). Some surges were introduced to the network as in … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2006 · 7,216 accessesView PDFCite
