Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe -863 TNF-α Polymorphism and Primary Open Angle Glaucoma in EgyptiansWalaa Bayoumie Abdulwahhab El Gazzar, Shaymaa Mohamed Abd El Rahman, Mohamed Nagy Elmohamady et al.Growing evidence indicates that TNF-alpha is involved in the pathogenesis of POAG in several ways, primarly by induction of retinal ganglion cells apoptosis and therefore optic nerve degeneration. TNF-alpha and POAG relationship has been studied at the genetic level with variable results in different populations. The transcription rate and the release of the TNF-alpha cytokine have been reported to be … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 13, Issue 2 · 1 Jun 2017 · 7,356 accessesView PDF Cite

Samples of Ziziphora genotypes were collected from four different locations (Assal Al-Ward, Yabroud, Qarah and Maaraba), 20 RAPD and 12 ISSR primers were used to assess the genetic diversity of 10 genotypes. … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 3 · 19 Oct 2015 · 7,897 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Participation of Oxidative Stress in Breast Cancer Cells Progression and Treatment ResistancePoliana Camila Marinello, Kaliana Larissa Machado, Rubens Cecchini, Alessandra Lourenço CecchiniThis article presents a general discussion about the participation of oxidative stress in relevant points related to breast cancer progression in vitro. All of the evidences presented here are based on published papers that used breast cancer cells with different phenotype characteristics in their research. We observed that oxidative stress could modulate by several manners the tumor progression and these … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 17 Jan 2015 · 7,511 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAntifungal Activity of Skin Secretion of Bleeding Toad Leptophryne Cruentata and Javan Tree Frog Rhacophorus MargaritiferI. Made Artika, Sabrina Pinontoan, Mirza Dikari KusriniAmphibian skin has been the source of a wide variety of biologically active compounds. This study was aimed to determine antifungal activity of skin secretion of two species of anurans endemic in Indonesia, the bleeding toad Leptophryne cruentata and the javan tree frog Rhacophorus margaritifer. We collected 7 adults of L. cruentata and 10 adults of R. margaritifer from the … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 16 Jan 2015 · 8,127 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRendezvous with Tat: Transactivator of Transcription during Human Immunodeficiency Virus PathogenesisSneham Tiwari, Madhavan P.N. Nair, Shailendra K. SaxenaAcquired immune deficiency syndrome is a deadly disease caused by HIV, declared as a global catastrophe engulfing millions of lives per year. It took ~1.8 million lives in the year 2010 alone, as per reports of UNAIDS. HIV-1 is an enveloped retrovirus, having genome composed of two copies of ssRNA. It attacks the T-lymphocytes of the hosts, causes several multifaceted … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 31 Jul 2012 · 7,625 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSimplified Modeling, Analysis and Simulation of Permanent Magnet Brushless Direct Current Motors for Sensorless OperationE. Kaliappan, C. ChellamuthuProblem statement: In this study, a simplified modeling and experimental analysis of Permanent Magnet Brushless DC (PMBLDC) motors for Sensorless operation using MATLAB/SIMULINK. This model provides a mechanism for monitoring and controlling the voltage, current, speed and torque response. Approach: BLDC motor is modeled as sub-blocks. The inverter and switching function are implemented as S-function builder block.

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNeuroprotective Effect against Alzheimer's Disease of Porcine Brain ExtractWipawee Thukham-Mee, Jintanaporn Wattanathorn, Supaporn Muchimapura, Chuleratana BunchonglikitkulProblem statement: Despite the increasing importance of Alzheimer’s disease, no effective therapeutic strategy is available. Therefore, neuroprotective strategy is still required. Recent findings show that numerous substances possessing antioxidant can improve neurodegeneration and memory impairment. Based on the antioxidant effect and its reputation to serve as brain tonic in traditional folklore, we hypothesized that porcine brain extract could mitigate neurodegeneration … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 5 · 5 Mar 2012 · 8,243 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHarmonics Phase Shifter for a Three-Phase System with Voltage Control by Integral-Cycle Triggering Mode of ThyristorsI. Badran, A.L. Mahmood, M.T. LazimIn integral-cycle triggering mode of voltage control, subharmonic as well as higher order harmonic components are generated in the load voltage waveforms of a three-phase system. These harmonic components are found to be unbalanced in phase displacement. The correction of the unbalanced phase displacement angles of a particular subharmonic or higher order harmonic for this type of triggering is investigated … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2008 · 7,110 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRetinoids Chemosensitize Ovarian Cancer Cell Lines to Cisplatin Independent of Nuclear Receptors and p53Suresh Guruswamy, Doris M. BenbrookTreatment of ovarian cancer with cisplatin-based chemotherapy is highly toxic and is often followed by cancer recurrence. Repeated treatments with cisplatin frequently result in the development of resistance to this drug. Drugs with low toxicity that could enhance the tumor cell killing effects of cisplatin could potentially reduce the toxicity and enhance the efficacy of cisplatin. The mechanism of cell … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2006 · 6,958 accessesView PDF Cite
