Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNeuropsychological Dysfunction among HIV Infected Drug AbusersRamani S. Durvasula, Charles H. HinkinHuman immunodeficiency virus (HIV) has been documented to cause direct and indirect central nervous system dysfunction that can be observed as a progressive decline in neuropsychological functioning in a large proportion of persons with HIV and AIDS. Neuropsychological decline in individuals with HIV is characterized by cognitive and motor slowing, attentional deficits, executive dysfunction and memory impairment (characterized by intact … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2006 · 7,155 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of Transcript Labeling Techniques and Development of a Membrane-based Parallel Gene Expression AssayMark A. Fisher, Bonnie B. Plikaytis, Thomas M. ShinnickAn inexpensive alternative to micro arrays was developed to examine the expression of small sets of genes in parallel and used to compare direct and indirect transcript labeling methods. Psoralen-biotin direct labeling was ~10-fold less sensitive than reverse transcriptase-biotin-dUTP labeling, but the enzymatic method generated higher levels of background noise in miniarray hybridizations. The reproducibility of hybridization intensities was the … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2005 · 6,868 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAroclor 1254 Toxicity to Mice Liver Membrane AtpasesShweta Pathak, Rahul KunduPresent communication reports the sub-acute dose and exposure duration dependent effects of Aroclor 1254 on total, Na+, K+, Ca++ and Mg++-ATPases of the mouse liver cells. The study tests two hypotheses, (a) whether the sublethal dose or the exposure duration dependent in vivo exposure of hydrophobic PCB (Aroclor 1254) affects the hydrophilic membrane-bound ion dependent ATPases of the liver cells … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 13 Jul 2013 · 6,791 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCamel's Milk Protects Against Cadmium Chloride Induced Toxicity in White Albino RatsFahaid Al-Hashem, Mohammad Dallak, Nabil Bashir et al.Problem statement: Cadmium is one of the most dangerous occupational and environmental toxins. It is found in drinking water, atmospheric air and even in food. Cadmium is reported to be very toxic to biological systems. Until now in treating intoxication with this metal, chelating Compounds have been used, burdened with numerous undesirable symptoms. For this reason, many researches are carried … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2009 · 9,306 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProteomics Approach for Investigating the Disease Resistance Using Cucumber as Model PlantSaligrama A. Deepak, Junko Shibato, Hideo Ishii et al.The profile of proteins induced in cucumber leaves pretreated with Acibenzolar-S-Methyl (ASM) and challenge inoculated with Colletotrichum orbiculare are presented. ASM was applied to the first leaf and the third leaf collected at different time intervals of 0-48 h and the total protein extracted using trichloroacetic acid acetone was analyzed by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis. Increased expressions of pyridoxine biosynthesis protein, … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2008 · 7,240 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordPurification, Structural Characterization and Anti-Aging and Stress Activities of Cordyceps Mycelium Polysaccharides from Paecilomyces HepialiXiaokang Hu, Huixiu Ma, Guicai Chen et al.This study identified and characterized the bioactive polysaccharide components from Cordyceps mycelium powder (CMP) derived from Paecilomyces hepiali, evaluating their anti-aging and stress-protective activities. Initial screening using Drosophila melanogaster revealed that crude Cordyceps polysaccharides (CCP) exhibited comparable effects to CMP and Cordyceps aqueous extracts (CAE) on natural lifespan and UV stress resistance, suggesting CCP as the primary bioactive component. CCP … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 21, Issue 4 · 16 Feb 2026 · 1,698 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordProphylactic Effects of Melatonin on Sodium Valproate-Induced Neural Tube Defects and Skeletal Malformations in Rat EmbryosOmolbanin Rahgazar, Reza Ranjbar, Hossien Najafzadeh Varzi, Mahmood Khaksary MahabadyProblem statement: Some reports showed the teratogenic effects of sodium valproate can be prevented by application of antioxidant drugs and stimulation of the maternal immune system. Therefore, in this study, the prophylactic effect of melatonin on teratogenic effects of sodium valproate was compared. Approach: This study was performed on 31 pregnant rats that were divided into five groups. Control group … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 5 · 17 May 2011 · 7,281 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordRal-Binding Protein is Required for the Maturation and Function of Dendritic CellsJozef Borvak, Mukesh Sahu, Varun Joy et al.Problem statement: Dendritic Cells (DCs) integrate responses of innate and adaptive immune system via transmitting pro-inflammatory and regulatory signals to naïve cells within draining lymph nodes. DCs have high capacity for endocytosis, both Clathrin-Dependent (CDE) and Caveolin-Dependent (CvDE). Approach: We have recently shown that ATP-hydrolysis by the multifunctional transporter protein RLIP76 is the primary determinant of the rate of CDE. … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 13 Sep 2010 · 8,095 accessesView PDFCite
