Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHigh Incidence of Disorder-Promoting Amino Acids in the Amino Terminus of Mature Proteins in Bacillus subtilisGuangqiang Wang, Yining Dong, Haiqin Chen et al.Problem statement: Exported polypeptides are usually synthesized as preproteins which are composed with mature domains and the signal peptides. The foreign proteins are usually inefficiently secreted by the aid of signal peptides. Although we know that the mature protein played an important role in the protein export process, we do not know what properties of the mature domains are critical … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 2 Feb 2012 · 8,255 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLeaf Surface Bacterial Colonization in Response to Brevicoryne brassicae (L.) Infestation of Brassica chinensis L.Shaon Raychaudhuri, Inga Mewis, Christian UlrichsProblem statement: Epiphytic population is an intrinsic part of the leaf surface. The effect of stress like insect infestation is not well understood. The aim of the study was to determine possible effects of insect infestation on bacteria community. Approach: The leaf surface microbial profile of Brassica rapa ssp. chinensis (L.) was investigated using a culture-dependent approach under normal and … …Current Research in Microbiology, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 31 May 2011 · 7,859 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRenal Actions of Neutral Endopeptidase Inhibition in Rats with Chronic Heart FailureAmr M. Abbas, Ayman Z. Elsamanoudy, Adel ZalataProblem statement: We aim to evaluate the effects of acute and chronic inhibition of Neutral EndoPeptidase (NEP), by ONO-9902, on plasma and renal NEP gene expression, hemodynamic and renal parameters in rats with Chronic Heart Failure (CHF) following left Coronary Artery Ligation (CAL). Approach: Forty eight male Sprague-Dawley rats (220-240 g) were divided into sham and CAL groups. Myocardial infarction … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 11 · 8 Nov 2010 · 7,087 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDetection and Localization of Anti and Pro-apoptotic mRNA Genes in Human Colorectal Cancer Using in situ RT-PCRMohd. Nazil Salleh, Boo Siaw Shi, Wan Khairuzzaman Wan Ramli et al.Problem statement: Recent studies using conventional Polymerase Chain Reaction have shown that anti-apoptotic (Cyclooxygenase-2, COX-2 and Nuclear Factor-κB, NF-κB) and proapoptotic mRNA (Bax and Bad) are involved in the tumorigenesis of colorectal cancer. The aim of this study was to localize the expression of anti and pro-apoptotic mRNA genes using Reverse Transcription in situ Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT in situ … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 7,441 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHistological Study of Cervix Uteri in Caspian Miniature HorseM. Rezaian, S. HamediProblem statement: Uterine cervix which separates the uterus from the vagina, shows remarkable anatomical and histological differences among mammalian species. Since no cleared observations have been found in regards with the Caspian miniature horses’ cervix, the aim of the present study was to supplement this missing information which could be helpful for providing a stricter basis in detecting reproductive diseases … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 7,670 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCytoprotective Effect of UlGen, a Polyherbal Formulation against Physical and Chemical Factor Induced Gastric Ulcers in Wister Albino RatsT. S. Muralidhar, Anna Balaji, Chinmay Bandopadhyay, S. L. ShanthaProblem statement: UlGen, a Polyherbal formulation, was investigated for its possible Ulcero-protective activity in ulcerogen and Cold-restraint stress induced Wister rats (Rattus rattus). Oral administration of UlGen, at a dose of 800 mg kg-1 significantly protected the onset of cold-resistance stress induced ulcerations. Approach: It significantly inhibited gastric ulceration induced by alcohol and aspirin. Control group: Alcohol 80% induced ulcer … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2009 · 8,180 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMolecular Mechanisms of Neurodegenerative Diseases Induced by Human Retroviruses: A ReviewBryan P. Irish, Zafar K. Khan, Pooja Jain et al.Problem statement: Infection with retroviruses such as human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) and human T cell leukemia virus type 1 (HTLV-1) have been shown to lead to neurodegenerative diseases such as HIV-associated dementia (HAD) or neuroAIDS and HTLV-1-Associated Myelopathy/Tropical Spastic Paraparesis (HAM/TSP), respectively. Approach: HIV-1-induced neurologic disease is associated with an influx of HIV-infected monocytic cells across the blood-brain … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2009 · 14,888 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDrug Interaction between Salinomycin and Exogenous Adrenaline in DogsHamid Rajaian, Javad Sajedianfard, Saeed Nazifi, Ali Moosavi KianProblem statement: Salinomycin is a member of ionophore compounds that may be used in ruminants and pigs as growth promoter or to prevent coccidiosis. There are some reports with respect to the in vitro and in vivo sympathomimetic cardiovascular effects of salinomycin. Available reports indicate that adrenergic impact of the ionophore is brought about by an increase in the secretion … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,541 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Model of Intestinal Anaphylaxis in Whey Sensitized Balb/c MiceNegaoui Hanane, Kaddouri Hanane, Kheroua Omar, Saidi DjamelProblem statement: Cow’s Milk Allergy (CMA) is a common disease in childhood. Pathophysiological mechanisms involved in gastrointestinal symptoms are relatively poorly understood. Approach: Therefore, an experimental model of intestinal anaphylaxis was needed to approach the problem.
