Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAdvanced Oxidation Protein Products in Aged with DementiaMelike Erol Demirbilek, Nedret Kilic, H. Ferhan Komurcu, K. Okhan AkinThe role of increased oxidative stress in the development of oxidative protein damage in aging have been reported. There is an important role of oxidative stress on development of dementia. Advanced oxidation protein products (AOPPs) are novel markers of oxidative stress. The aim of this study was to compare AOPP levels in healthy aged person and aged person with dementia. … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 31 Dec 2007 · 7,256 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Dietary Yeasts Enriched with Cu, Fe and Mn on Digestibility of Main Nutrients and Absorption of Minerals by Growing PigsDaniel Korniewicz, Zbigniew Dobrzanski, Katarzyna Chojnacka et al.Yeasts Saccharomyces cerevisiae containing in 1 kg of dry product, separately 32.0 g Fe (Y-Fe), 23.0 g Cu (Y-Cu), 35.4 g Mn (Y-Mn), were used as the source of these microelements in complete diet for growing pigs. If considering livestock requirements, feed supplementation with this organic form of microelements, covered animals’ requirements in: Fe-27%, Cu-75%, Mn-30%. ZnO was the source … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 7,707 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBeta-2-Microglobulin in Autism Spectrum DisordersPaula Goines, Joseph Schauer, Luke Heuer et al.Autism spectrum disorders (ASD) are heterogeneous neurodevelopmental diseases of unknown etiology. There are no biological markers for ASD and current diagnosis is based on behavioral criteria. Recent data has shown that MHC I, a compound involved in adaptive immune function, is also involved in neurodevelopment, synaptic plasticity and behavior. It has been suggested that altered MHC I expression could play … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 7,560 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractControl of Anthracnose Caused by Colletotrichum musae on Curcuma alismatifolia Gagnep. Using Antagonistic Bacillus spp.Supuk Mahadtanapuk, Mondhon Sanguansermsri, Robert W. Cutler et al.Over 400 bacterial strains, isolated from leaf surfaces of Curcuma alismatifolia Gagnep. and hot springs in the Chiang Mai province of northern Thailand, were screened in vitro for antagonistic activity against Colletotrichum musae, an anthracnose fungus. Three isolates provided greater than 75% growth inhibition of the fungus in vitro and were identified as Bacillus licheniformis, B. amyloliquefaciens and B. subtilis. … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 9,005 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Influence of Social Capital on Adoption of Rural Development Programs by Farmers in the Caspian Sea Region of IranA. Ahmadi Firouzjaie, H. Sadighi, M.A. MohammadiThe main purpose of this study was to measure social capital (consisting of structural and cognitive) of mainly rice producing farmers in the Caspian See region of Iran. The secondary purpose was to determine the influence of farmers' social capital on adoption of Rural Development Programs (RDPs). This was a descriptive-correlation and a causal-comparative survey study. The population of this … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2007 · 8,031 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInduced Microcracking Affects Osteoblast Attachment on Hydroxyapatite Scaffolds for Tissue EngineeringIan O. Smith, Melissa J. Baumann, Eldon D. CaseBone microdamage caused by routine activity plays an important role in triggering targeted and nontargeted bone remodeling. Targeted remodeling occurs near localized areas of microdamage[1-4]. We hypothesize that bone remodeling may be directly and positively influenced by inducing microcracks in hydroxyapatite (HA) scaffolds for bone tissue engineering. A study by Case et al. showed microcracking in HA discs having >98% … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2006 · 6,557 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTaxifolin Potently Diminishes Levels of Reactive Oxygen Species in Living Cells Possibly by Scavenging Peroxyl RadicalsSatoru Sakuma, Yui Kishiwaki, Mayu Matsumura et al.Taxifolin, a naturally occurring dihydroflavonol, has been reported to possess antioxidant activity, whereas there is little information regarding its antioxidant potency as a flavonoid. In the present study, the antioxidant efficacy of taxifolin in living cells was compared to that of catechin, a potent radical scavenger, by using flow cytometry with the redox-sensitive fluorescent dye, 2′,7′-dichlorodihydrofluorescein diacetate. Further, diminishing efficacy … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 13, Issue 1 · 18 Oct 2018 · 8,056 accessesView PDFCite
