Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSitagliptin Impairs Healing of Experimentally Induced Gastric Ulcers Via inhibition of iNOS and COX-2 ExpressionAmina Unis, Eman AbdelzaherGastric ulcer healing is a complex process that is regulated by several promoting factors including COX-2 and iNOS. Diabetes mellitus is usually associated with delayed gastric ulcer healing. Hence, the current study was designed to investigate the effect of sitagliptin (dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor) on gastric ulcer healing and expression of iNOS and COX-2 in rat stomach.The study was conducted on … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 4 Sep 2013 · 7,440 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBioactive Factors of Colostrum and Human Milk Exhibits a Day-Night VariationNubia Andrade Silva, Adenilda Cristina Honorio-Franca, Fernanda Regina Giachini et al.The aim of this study was to determine the chronobiological variations of cytokines (IFN-γ, TGF-β) and hormones (melatonin and cortisol). The sample was collected from 42 mothers at three stages of maturity-day 3 (colostrum), day 10 (transitional milk) and day 30 (mature milk) postpartum, at two times of day: diurnal (12:00 h) and nocturnal (24:00 h), resulting a total of … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 25 Jun 2013 · 8,190 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMicrornas are Not That Small to IgnoreSanjeev Kumar Srivastava, Sonal Somvanshi, Vivek Pratap SinghMicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small, noncoding RNA molecule that negatively regulates gene expression by causing either degradation or translational inhibition of their target mRNAs. These miRNAs are key regulators of various biological processes such as differentiation, maturation and maintenance of immune homeostasis. Furthermore, deregulated expression of miRNA has now been shown to regulate several disease processes by regulating tumorigenesis, angiogenesis, apoptosis … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 22 Jun 2012 · 8,460 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDiversity of the Rhizosphere Soil Culture-Dependent Fungi of Mature TobaccoXiaolin Li, Xinzhu Li, Kewei Zhao et al.Problem statement: The maturation of tobacco is a very important period of tobacco production. Until recently, there are no many reports on tobacco rhizospheric culturable fungi, especially at the mature stage. Approach: Five rhizosphere soils of tobacco and five non-rhizosphere soils of tobacco were collected in Yanbian county, Panzhihua. Sixty-one fungal strains isolated from these soil samples were analyzed by … …Current Research in Microbiology, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 26 Oct 2011 · 9,881 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPrevalence Study of Etiologies of Developmental Defects of Enamel of First Permanent Molar among Six to Seven Years Old ChildrenF. Farrokh Gisoo, A. MohseniProblem statement: The final product of amelogensis which generates in three subsequent phases is dental enamel. These Phases are divided into: excretory, calcification and maturation stage of enamel. While these specific complex events, are affected by specific agents, the act of amelogenic cells will be disturbed and hence the results of this process is improper and imperfect enamel production which … …Current Research in Dentistry, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 16 Jul 2011 · 7,623 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractZinc Deficiency and Associated T-Cell Dysfunctioning among Human Immunodeficiency Virus SeropositivesM. Andrew Pradeep, M. Thiruvalluvan, V. Nalini, J. Stella MaryProblem statement: All the nutrients in the diet play a crucial role in maintaining an optimal immune response. In both, deficient and excessive intake of nutrients can have negative consequence on the immune status and susceptibility to a variety of pathogens. Zinc is an essential micronutrient for human growth development and immune function. It plays a vital role in structure … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 31 Oct 2010 · 8,041 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIn vitro Anti Plasmodial Activity of Enicostemma littoraleSanket Soni, Sarita GuptaProblem statement: Malaria is a prevalent disease in India. The problem of drug resistance is worsening. Hence, new effective and affordable antimalarial drugs are very much needed. The long-established use of quinine and the more recent introduction of artemisinin as highly effective anti malarials demonstrate that plant species are an important resource for the discovery of new anti malarial agents. … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2009 · 7,710 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvolution of a Graduate Environmental Science ProgramWill Focht, Talya HendersonProblem statement: Environmental science programs vary widely in their curricula and pedagogical approaches. In part, this is due to the lack of a unified agreement on field identity. However, program differences are also the product of variable program histories. Approach: This essay described the founding and subsequent history of the Environmental Science Graduate Program at Oklahoma State University, its oldest … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 30 Apr 2009 · 7,013 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCharacterization of Maturity Level in Laying Hen Manure by Chemical and Thermogravimetric AnalysisAlice Dall’Ara, Francesco Antolini, Laura Billi et al.This study aims at investigating maturity levels in manure from laying hens in order to encourage its agronomic re-utilization. In fact the use of unstable/insufficiently mature manure could potentially damage both soils and crops. Effective, easy to reproduce methods are needed in order to assess bio-stabilisation and maturity levels, particularly for biomass that has not undergone conventional composting. This study … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Aug 2008 · 6,542 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
