Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFactors Those Up Regulate Klotho and Glutathione Peroxidase-1 Gene Expression Improve Renal Function in Rats with Acute Renal FailureFatma E. El-Gendey, Shabaan A. Hemeda, Gamal A. Sosa, Naglaa F. AlhusseiniAcute Renal Failure (ARF) has traditionally been defined as the abrupt and progressive loss of kidney functions resulting in the retention of urea and other nitrogenous waste products associated with interstitial inflammation, tubular injury and increasing Tumor Necrosis Factor (TNF). Mortality in patients with ARF remains high >50% in severely ill patients. Klotho gene is a new anti-aging gene. Genetic … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 15 Aug 2015 · 7,101 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTissue Engineering of Articular Cartilage: A Mini-ReviewRadoslav Zamborsky, Jana Rusnakova, Andreas NicodemouDamage of articular cartilage due to congenital anomaly, injury or pathological process may lead in decreasing of life quality of affected patients. In many cases, conventional therapeutical approaches may not bring expected results. Tissue engineering by the combination of material technology and cell-based therapy may represent hope for these patients. The main goal of this review article is to summarize … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 4 · 5 Jan 2015 · 6,929 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Role of Nf-Kappa and HDCA and Implication of Oxidative Stress in Airway Inflammation of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary DiseaseGhada A. Abdallah, Nevine M. Abd-Elfattah, Hala M. Ghanem et al.Oxidative stress has been implicated in the pathogenesis of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), due to its effect on proinflammatory gene transcription. Oxidants/antioxidants imbalance is responsible for disease development. The study was designed to assess oxidative stress and inflammation in COPD patients. The level of TNF-α and IL-8 in sputum and BAL were compared. NF-κB and HDAC were measured in … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 4 Dec 2014 · 6,839 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAN EXPERIMENTAL STUDY ON THE HEAT ENHANCEMENT AND THE BIO-HEAT TRANSFER USING GOLD MACRO ROD AND ULTRASOUND: A POTENTIAL ALTERNATIVE TO KILL CANCER CELLSC. Austerlitz, I. Gkigkitzis, D. Campos, I. HaranasWe have previously proposed a method of treating solid tumors with a combination of gold macro-rods irradiated with ultrasound. Macro particle sized rods offer a greater circumferential treatment area over nanoparticle options. Experimental studies were conducted to investigate the heat enhancement and the bio-heat transfer to breast chicken using gold macro rod and ultrasound. An ultrasound, other than a focused … …Physics International, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 26 May 2014 · 7,529 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractASCORBIC ACID FOLIIAR SPRAY COUNTERACTING EFFECT OF SALINITY ON GROWTH, NUTRIENTS CONCENTRATIONS, PHOTOSYNTHESIS, ANTIOXIDANT ACTIVITIES AND LIPID PEROXIDATION OF BEAN (PHASEULUS VULGARIS L.) CULTIVARSZeinab A. Salama, El-Zanaty A.A. Abou El-Nour, Mohamed M. El Fouly, Alaa A. GaafarA water culture experiment was carried out in the Department of Fertilization Technology at National Research Centre, Cairo, Egypt, to investigate the effect of Ascorbic Acid (AsA) foliar application and salinity stress (100 ppm and 100 mmoL NaCl) on growth, nutrients concentration and some biochemical parameters of two kidney bean (Phaseulus Vulgaris L.) cultivars. Salinity caused significant reduction in growth … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 16 May 2014 · 7,906 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOCCUPATIONAL AND ANIMALS SAFETY IN ZOOS: A LEGAL NARRATIVEKamal Halili HassanThis article examines the legal position of human and animal safety in zoos. The risk of injury or even death is high in zoos. Such risk can occur either to the people in charge of zoos, visitors or even to the animals themselves. As such, there are regulations enacted to safeguard people and animals from such risk. Tort is the … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 27 Dec 2013 · 8,576 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractESTIMATION OF CLAIM COST DATA USING ZERO ADJUSTED GAMMA AND INVERSE GAUSSIAN REGRESSION MODELSYulia Resti, Noriszura Ismail, Saiful Hafizah JamaanIn actuarial and insurance literatures, several researchers suggested generalized linear regression models (GLM) for modeling claim costs as a function of risk factors. The modeling of claim costs involving both zero and positive claims experience has been carried out by fitting the claim costs collectively using Tweedie model. However, the probability of zero claims in Tweedie model is not allowed … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 11 Jul 2013 · 7,265 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractReview Article; Duodeno-Gastro-Esophageal Reflux Combined and IsolatedAyman Osman Nasr, William Robb, Thomas Neil WalshBarrett’s esophagus is the chief risk factor for esophageal adenocarcinoma. Reflux of gastric acid has long been related to the development of esophagitis and Barrett’s esophagus, but the role of duodenal contents is controversial. We review the literature on the role of duodenal contents in the development of esophagitis, Barrett’s esophagus and adenocarcinoma in addition to the role of acid … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 8 May 2013 · 7,834 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProtection of Terminalia belerica Roxb. Against Iron Overload Induced Liver Toxicity: An Account of Its Reducing and Iron Chelating CapacityBibhabasu Hazra, Rhitajit Sarkar, Nripendranath MandalExcess iron deposition in the liver catalyses the production of Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) which in turn initiate oxidative damage of protein and nucleic acids leading to several human diseases. The fruits of Terminalia Belerica Roxb. (TB) has been most commonly used not only in stimulating gastrointestinal health, but also in treatment of various hepatic disorders.
