Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsModulation of the GABAA Receptor by Srif in Rat ThalamusFatiha Chigr, Mariama El Ouahli, Ghizlane Er-Raoui et al.Somatostatin has been reported to modulate GABAA receptor complex in many brain structures. This study was conducted to investigate somatostatin modulation of the GABAA receptor binding in several rat diencephalic structures, focusing primarily on the thalamus, as this structure plays important roles. Animals were assigned to control conditions. Changes in specific binding of GABAA receptor as labelled with [35S]t-Butylbicyclophosphorothionate (TBPS) … …Neuroscience International, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 14 Sep 2012 · 6,967 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsA Sequence Based Validation of Gene Expression Microarray DataGerhard G. Thallinger, Eva Obermayr, Pornpimol Charoentong et al.Problem statement: Quantitative Reverse Transcription PCR (RT-qPCR) is often used to validate microarray data. Previous studies show different levels of correlation, without further investigation of influencing factors. Approach: We compared expression levels of 381 genes obtained from microarray hybridizations and from TaqMan based RT-qPCR assays. Correlation of expression levels was determined by comparing: (i) single genes across samples, (ii) all … …Current Research in Bioinformatics, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 19 Jan 2012 · 13,722 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsRobust Decentralized Load Frequency Control Using Multi Variable QFT Method in Deregulated Power SystemsSeyed Abbas Taher, Reza HemattiThe Load Frequency Control problem has been a major subject in electrical power system design/operation and is becoming more significant recently with increasing size, changing structure and complexity in interconnected power systems. In practice LFC systems use simple proportional-integral controllers. However, since the PI control parameters are usually tuned based on classical or trial-and-error approaches, they are incapable of obtaining … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2008 · 7,093 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEffectiveness of the Use of Genetic Markers of Meat Productivity in the Kazakh White-Headed Breed Identified Using Genome-Wide Association StudyIndira Beishova, Askar Nametov, Alzhan Shamshidin et al.The study aimed to determine the effectiveness of the use of genetic markers in cattle of the Kazakh white-headed breed identified using a genome-wide association study. The object of the study was the livestock of 790 Kazakh white-headed bulls bred in breeding farms of the Republic of Kazakhstan. The study adheres to rigorous ethical standards, with all procedures approved by … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 24, Issue 4 · 25 Jun 2024 · 5,028 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsCurie Point Depth (CPD) Investigation Of Offshore Niger Delta Using High Resolution Aeromagnetic DataOfoha Chimezie Charles, Emujakporue Godwin OmokenuOffshore Niger Delta, Nigeria, is known to be a hub for hydrocarbon exploration within the West Africa region and the world in general. The geologic settings within the Niger Delta province have a proven potential to assist in oil and gas exploration. However, much of the offshore provinces potential remains unknown with respect to the temperature differences using aeromagnetic data. … …Current Research in Geoscience, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 18 Jan 2019 · 7,815 accessesView PDFCite
Case ReportOpen accessIn the keywordsSocial Psychology and Performative Interventions in Human Systems. The GENERATIVE MethodAlessio Nencini, Alessandro Meneghini, Marco PratiThe purpose of this paper is to describe the GENERATIVE method, a methodology for promoting change in human systems (i.e., contexts involving human interactions, such as organizations, communities, institutions). The first part of the paper is focused on the description of the interactionist and constructionist epistemological background adopted. The second is dedicated to the presentation of human systems as socially … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 29 May 2015 · 7,420 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsNew (Digital) Technique for Areal Measurements of Stonewall Surface RoughnessMary J. ThornbushThis study revisits a method introduced in the 1990 s that was deployed to measure surface roughness through profiles on rock blocks. Measurements were originally taken directly in the field using a micro-roughness meter or a simple profile gauge. The roughness index was obtained in the "deviograms" method utilizing the standard deviation of differences between 38 adjacent height measurements. The … …Current Research in Geoscience, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 14 Jan 2015 · 6,862 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsThe Induction of Lycopene in Germinating Cottonseed with 2-(4-Methylphenoxy) Triethylamine (MPTA)Lorraine S. Puckhaber, Jinggao LiuAbstract: Problem Statement: Increasing carotenoids content in foods was currently of great interest. The present paper reports strong stimulatory effect of MPTA on the carotenogenesis in cotton, which was used as a model.
