Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesInvestigation of the Behavior of Tailings Earthen Dam Under Seismic ConditionsDebarghya Chakraborty, Deepankar ChoudhuryProblem statement: A number of tailings earthen dams have failed during past earthquakes. The failure of tailings dam ultimately results into the release of the stored tailings waste deposit in the surrounding locality. To reduce such damage of tailings earthen dam, a detail method of seismic analysis is very much essential which can be used reliably for the design and … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2009 · 8,559 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesProteomics 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 PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesOn the Hormetic Behaviour of Drugs Binding to Different Redox States of Amine Oxidase EnzymesDeepak Narang, G. Reid McDonald, David J. Smith et al.Classical monoamine oxidases and copper-containing semicarbazide-sensitive amine oxidases are drug targets for a variety of established and novel pharmaceuticals used to treat conditions such as depression, Parkinsonism and inflammatory disorders. Development of enzyme inhibitors, both historically and currently, assumes an underlying adherence of these enzymes to Michaelis-Menten kinetic principles. In this mini-review, we discuss historical data from several laboratories and … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 6,928 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesNaloxone benzoylhydrazone activates Extracellular Signal-Regulated Protein Kinases and modulates Nociceptin Opioid Peptide Receptor activityDeepak R. Thakker, Ghazi F. Altememi, Chitra D. Mandyam et al.Naloxone benzoylhydrazone (NalBzoH) is often used as a nociceptin opioid peptide (NOP) receptor antagonist. However, NalBzoH is also a mixed μ antagonist/κ and δ opioid agonist and its actions at the NOP receptor range from an antagonist to partial agonist, depending on the effector response/system studied. We now report that NalBzoH activates endogenously expressed κ3 opioid, but not NOP, receptors … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 7,549 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesAntisporulant Activity of Watery Extracts of Plants against Sclerospora graminicola Causing Downy Mildew Disease of Pearl MilletS.A. Deepak, G. Oros, S. G. Sathyanarayana et al.Watery extracts of forty plant species commonly growing in across India have been screened for antisporulant activity against Sclerospora graminicola (Sacc.) Schroet., the causative agent of pearl millet downy mildew. The collection represented 38 genera of 30 families. The extracts of thirteen species did not show any effect, whereas the activity of extracts of Allium sativum, Clematis gouriana, Evolvulus alsinoides, … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2007 · 7,928 accessesView PDF Cite
