Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPhysics Models of Pronuclear Movements in EggsKang Cheng, Changhua ZouBased on published experimental data, Newton's laws, and Coulomb's law, we investigate natural and normal pronuclear movements in wild types of eggs and develop physics models to fit the experimental data quantitatively. The difference between our modeling calculated results and the experimental data is less than 20%. Our models explain why and how pronuclei move in even or in variant … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2005 · 6,747 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractModeling Hepatocellular Toxicity of Enavatuzumab, a Humanized Anti-TweakR AntibodyDonghee Choi, Yanhong Zhu, Debra Tien Chao et al.In a Phase 1 clinical study, treatment with enavatuzumab, a humanized monoclonal antibody to TweakR, resulted in liver toxicity in a subset of patients. The objective of this current study was to evaluate the ability of preclinical studies to predict liver toxicity in humans. Enavatuzumab was evaluated in cynomolgus monkeys, where serum liver enzyme and cytokine levels were measured and … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 12, Issue 2 · 9 Nov 2017 · 7,721 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAntimicrobial Resistance Pattern and Characteristics of Integrons in Escherichia Coli Strains Isolated from Aquatic Retail Products in Zhejiang Province, ChinaTing Yu, Han Jiang, Hui Cheng et al.The aquatic retail products are among the potential reservoirs of antimicrobial resistant microorganisms. The main objective of this study was to analyze the antimicrobial susceptibility patterns and integrons and their associated Gene Cassettes (GCs) of Escherichia coli isolates from aquatic retail products. E. coli isolates were obtained from 450 aquatic retail products samples at different markets in Zhejiang Province, China. … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 16, Issue 4 · 21 Dec 2020 · 6,105 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalysis of the Factors used by Farmers to Manage Risk. A Case Study on Italian FarmsAntonella Pontrandolfi, Fabian Capitanio, Felice Adinolfi, Barry GoodwinThe study analyses the strategies Italian farmers use to cope with the risks that face their production. We develop cross-sectional and longitudinal analyses as well as analyses of correlation that underline the main differences between the way farms adapt their structure and management towards risk. The expected output is an analysis of farms’ approach to risk management in relation to … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 4 · 26 Apr 2016 · 7,638 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEpigenetic Mechanisms in Hepatitis C Virus-Associated Hepatocellular Carcinoma: A Potential New Link Between Stem Cells, Virology and CancerQinghua Feng, Sajida Hassan, Trina Das et al.Recent studies suggest that epigenetic mechanisms are not only essential for the dynamic transcriptional regulation in embryonic and somatic stem cells, but are also actively involved in tumorigenesis: genes important for pluripotency are epigenetically regulated and aberrant epigenetic changes have been detected in virtually all human malignancies studied, including Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC). Infection with Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) is a … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 12 Mar 2013 · 8,039 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssessment on the Effect of Formulative Materials on the Viability and Efficacy of Serratia marcescens-a Biocontrol Agent Against Fusarium oxysporum F. sp. cubense race 4A. S. Y. Ting, M. T. Fang, C. S. TeeProblem statement: Application of biocontrol agents to the field in pre-existing free-cell forms often results in poor cell viability which subsequently affects their efficacy in suppressing pathogen development. There is therefore a need to bioformulate these biocontrol agents not just to enhance their field potential, but for easy storage, delivery and application as well. Approach: In this study, the bioformulations … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 8,474 accessesView PDF Cite

This research investigated (i) whether land uses have downgraded the coastal areas (ii) to which degree the determination of land uses can play an important role in the reduction of environmental … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 8,000 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMetabolic Features of Heart Failure with Different EtiologyOleynikov Dmitrij ArkadievichDilated Cardiomyopathy (DCM) and Chronical Degenerative Valvular Disease (CDVD) are very common in dogs nowadays. However, due to modern level in oncology we can meet chemotherapy-induced cardiomyopathies more often. We have lack of information about pathogenic mechanisms underlying Doxorubicin-induced Cardiomyopathy (DoxCM) and features differentiating it from CDVD and DCM. In this study we investigate several metabolic features of doxorubicin-induced cardiomyopathy, … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 9 Mar 2017 · 7,176 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSDS-PAGE Protein Pattern and Antigenicity Cross Reaction of Human SchistosomesNahed A.A. EL-Ossily, Doaa A. Yones, Mohamed El-Salahy M.M. Monib et al.Schistosomiasis is one of the most important neglected tropical diseases. Its control depends on treatment with the available drug praziquantel. No vaccine exists despite the intense search for molecular candidates and adjuvant formulations over the last three decades. The present study aimed to compare the antigenic protein structures of Schistosoma mansoni, S. haematobium, Fasciola. hepatica and Echinococus granulosus hydatid cyst … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 10 Feb 2016 · 7,360 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractContrastive Analysis of Stretched Collocations with Get and Take: Their use and Pedagogical ImplicationsSilvia Molina PlazaThis paper explores the pedagogical implications of contrastive analyses of light verb constructions containing get and take in English and Spanish based on electronic corpora, the British National Corpus (BNC) and the Corpus de Referencia del Español Actual (CREA). The main tenets of collocations from a contrastive perspective-and the points of contact and departure between both languages-are discussed prior to … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 23 Jul 2015 · 8,099 accessesView PDF Cite
