Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPrediction of a Putative Functional Region in the Human Bax Protein by Computational AnalysisMaría Sánchez-Aguilar, Laurence A. Marchat, Absalom ZamoranoStructural domains are relevant elements for interactions between Bcl-2 family members to regulate apoptosis and cell survival. Although BH1-BH4 domains can be identified by their sequence and selective occurrence in Bcl-2-family members, structural regions have not been entirely determined yet. The functional residues of Bax, the most representative pro-apoptotic protein of the human Bcl-2 family, remain almost unknown. Here, we … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 7,230 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSubset ARMA Model Identification for Monthly Electricity Consumption DataAmaal El Sayed Abd El Ghany MubarakSubset models can always be highly influential in series analysis, particularly when the data demonstrate a sort of form in periodic behavior with miscellaneous natural period's ranges, specifically; days, weeks, months and years. Subset models can also be effective as they let the number of parameters lower allowing only the really needed ones to be present in the model. Though … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 8 Mar 2019 · 7,140 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOlive Wastewaters' Impact on Oued Boufekrane in Meknes-TafilaletMajdouline Larif, Abdelmajid Soulaymani, Mohammed Hnach, Azzedine ElmidaouiProblem statement: Water quality of river Boufekrane is subject to heavy pollution exerted by population growth and industrial activity, including the OMW from the olive industry in which the presence of polyphenols and toxic effect dominant character may generate a higher organic pollution. Approach: Our objective is to "study the impact of OMW by analyzing the physicochemical parameters on seven … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 20 Apr 2012 · 7,514 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPatterns of Resection among Patients with Hepatic-Only Metastatic Colorectal Cancer a Single Institution Experience and ReviewK.I. Quintyne, N. O’Leary, O. O’Kelly et al.Problem statement: Hepatic-only metastasis in colorectal cancer is not a rare clinical finding and can account for 30% of cases. However, only 10-25% of cases are suitable for hepatic resection as part of their treatment pathway. We sought to document our own findings by reviewing patients with hepatic-only disease. Approach: A retrospective analysis was designed to include all patients seen … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 5 Apr 2012 · 7,196 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Philosophical Analysis of the Challenges of Science and Technology in Contemporary Africa: The Nigerian ExperimentAkinnawonu Benson MonehinScience and technology engendered unexpected social, political and health related problems. These included corrupt and dubious utilization of information and communication technology, environmental pollution and protection and depletion of the ozone layer which endangered human health.

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractECG Signal Denoising By Wavelet Transform ThresholdingMikhled Alfaouri, Khaled DaqrouqIn recent years, ECG signal plays an important role in the primary diagnosis, prognosis and survival analysis of heart diseases. In this paper a new approach based on the threshold value of ECG signal determination is proposed using Wavelet Transform coefficients. Electrocardiography has had a profound influence on the practice of medicine. The electrocardiogram signal contains an important amount of … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2008 · 16,507 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDuration Modeling in Undergraduate Econometrics Curriculum via ExcelIsmail H. GencThe main goal of an Econometrics course is to prepare students for more advanced levels of study and make them able to cope with the empirical problems they are likely to face. In recent years, there has been a tendency to purge merely theoretical topics from the econometric textbooks by including only time honored methods. Survival analysis, however, has so … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2004 · 7,053 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIsolation and Identification of Oral Cancer Stem Cells (CSC) within Commercially Available Cell LinesRobert Chauncey, Kai Hatch, Toni Jilka et al.Previous studies have demonstrated some tumors develop or maintain a small sub-population of cells with stem cell-like properties. This Cancer Stem Cells (CSC) may exhibit differential properties that allow their escape from traditional radiation or chemotherapy treatments and may therefore be responsible for cancer recurrence. Few studies have explored this phenomenon among oral cancer cell lines, therefore the objective of … …Current Research in Dentistry, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 2 Jun 2018 · 12,719 accessesView PDF Cite

EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractFocalize the Structure of Myd88 in TLR Signaling Pathway to Modulate Innate Immune Response: New Target for Old DiseasesShuai Xing, Ping ZhouAll diseases have their Achilles’ Heel to target and this is especially true for immunorelated diseases which must be treated by targeting the immune system somewhere and somehow correctly. In the most recent decade, immunologists recognized that the Toll-Like Receptor (TLR) signaling pathway in innate immune system plays a double-edged role in the pathogenesis of many notorious diseases. Although the … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 13, Issue 3 · 6 Sep 2017 · 7,862 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNitric Oxide Donors with Therapeutic Strategic in Experimental Schistossomiasis MansoniWander Rogério Pavanelli, Jean Jerley Nogueira da Silva, Carolina Panis et al.Schistosomiasis, an immune disease, remains a major public health problem in endemic area. To determine the influence of Nitric Oxide (NO) on this disease, we tested two compounds (Trans-[Ru(bpy)2(NO)SO3](PF6)-PF6 and Na2[Fe(CN)5(NO)]-SNP, which releases NO when activated by biological reducing agents, in BALB/c mice infected subcutaneously by Schistosoma BH strains. The parasitic activity of NO-donors was evaluated in this model by … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 24 Feb 2015 · 7,851 accessesView PDF Cite
