Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAdvanced Energy Efficient Passive Clustering Mobility in Wireless Sensor NetworksAouad Siham, Maach Abdelillah, El Ganami DrissWireless sensor networks have a wide applicability and increase deployment in the near future. In most of those applications, the network is composed of an important number of nodes deployed in an extensive area in which not all nodes are directly connected and based on clustering techniques. The Clustering can considerably reduce transmission overhead during flooding. In fact, by using … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 12 · 24 Oct 2013 · 6,762 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractChasing the Fat Demon: Fat Chance, Buddy?David L. Katz, Joachim Storsberg, Christian SchmidtScience is an interesting profession. At times, one could get caught up in his or her own world of thoughts, perception, far away from reality, sometimes referred to as the proverbial ivory tower (Lederberg, 1972). Science for the sake of science is, per se, not without merit, with our fragmented understanding of a given issue providing ample justification for experimentation … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 13, Issue 2 · 29 May 2017 · 8,137 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGas Atomization of Molten Metal: Part II. ApplicationsTaher M. Abu-Lebdeh, Genaro Pérez-de León, Sameer A. Hamoush et al.A numerical model was derived to obtain results for two alloys during the Gas Atomization (GA) method. The model equations and governing equations were implemented through the application of part I data. Aspects such as heat transfer, fluid mechanics, thermodynamics and law of motions were taken into account for the formulation of equations that take gas dynamics, droplet dynamics and … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 19 Apr 2016 · 8,365 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGas Atomization of Molten Metal: Part I. Numerical Modeling ConceptionGenaro Pérez-de León, Vincent E. Lamberti, Roland D. Seals et al.This numerical analysis study entails creating and assessing a model that is capable of simulating molten metal droplets and the production of metal powder during the Gas Atomization (GA) method. The essential goal of this research aims to gather more information on simulating the process of creating metal powder. The model structure and perspective was built through the application of … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 10 Apr 2016 · 9,053 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractANTIOBESITY EFFECTS OF HUMAN SOLUBLE LEPTIN IN MICE NOURISHED WITH A HIGH-FAT/HIGH FRUCTOSE DIETB. Chimal-Vega, N. Paniagua-Castro, J. C. Perez-Rebollar et al.Leptin is a hormone that regulates energy balance. Since its discovery two decades ago, several efforts have been made to fully understand its role in metabolic regulation of feeding behavior, reproduction, glucose homeostasis, immune function, bone formation, lipid metabolism, among others. Its use as a therapeutic option in obese patients is still limited due to the syndrome known as Leptin … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 9 Jul 2014 · 7,388 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEFFECTS OF MELANOCORTIN-4 RECEPTOR GENE ON GROWTH AND MEAT TRAITS IN PIGS RAISED IN RUSSIAA. Klimenko, A. Usatov, Lyubov Getmantseva et al.The Melanocortin-4 Receptor (MC4R), a G-protein coupled receptor, is implicated in mediating the effect of leptin on food intake and energy balance. A previous candidate gene study reported an association between an MC4R polymorphism (Asp298Asn) and growth and meat productive traits of pigs. The aim of this work was to determine frequencies of the MC4R/Taq I genotypes and alleles in … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 11 Feb 2014 · 7,611 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPolymorphisms in the 5’ Flanking Region and First Exon of Insulin-Like Growth Factor 1 Gene in Southern Populations of BuffaloSaber Khederzadeh, Ahmad YazdanpanahThe Insulin-like Growth Factor 1 (IGF-1) system plays a critical endocrine role controlling nutrient metabolism in animals and it is a group of structurally-related polypeptides that regulate the growth of many types of mammalian cells. In liver, IGF-1 is dynamically regulated by lactation and energy balance. Less is known about the regulation of IGF-1 and IGF-binding protein mRNA in reproductive … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 21 Sep 2013 · 6,849 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPolymorphism of Insulin-Like Growth Factor 1 Gene in Najdi Cattle PopulationsAhmad Yazdanpanah, Khalil Mirzadeh, Morteza Mamouei et al.The Insulin-like Growth Factor 1 (IGF-1) system plays a critical endocrine role controlling nutrient metabolism in dairy cattle and it is a group of structurally-related polypeptides that regulate the growth of many types of mammalian cells. In liver, IGF-1 is dynamically regulated by lactation and energy balance. Less is known about the regulation of IGF-1 and IGF-binding protein mRNA in … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 21 Sep 2013 · 7,157 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGenetic Polymorphism Exon 9-11 at the Leptin Gene Receptor in Breeder Hens of Mazandaran Native FowlsHossein Ali Abbasi, Shahabodin Gharavysi, Rohullah AbdullahpourProblem statement: Leptin a 16 kD protein synthesized by white adipose tissue and involved in regulation of feed intake, energy balance, fertility and immune function. In order to evaluate the leptin gene receptor polymorphism, we have used a Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism (RFLP) method. Approach: Blood samples were collected from randomly chosen 100 native fowls breeding station of Mazandaran. The … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 17 Sep 2011 · 7,705 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNew Control Technique Applied in Dynamic Voltage Restorer for Voltage Sag MitigationRosli Omar, Nasrudin Abd Rahim, Marizan SulaimanThe Dynamic Voltage Restorer (DVR) was a power electronics device that was able to compensate voltage sags on critical loads dynamically. The DVR consists of VSC, injection transformers, passive filters and energy storage (lead acid battery). By injecting an appropriate voltage, the DVR restores a voltage waveform and ensures constant load voltage. There were so many types of the control … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 8,141 accessesView PDFCite
