Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEarly Cellular Responses of Purine Nucleoside-mediated Protection of Hypoxia-induced Injuries of Neuronal PC12 CellsBettina Tomaselli, Valerie Podhraski, Günther Böck, Gabriele Baier-BitterlichHypoxia in brain may lead to cell death by apoptosis and necrosis. In parallel adenosine, a powerful endogenous neuroprotectant is formed. We wanted to investigate the effect of adenosine and its purine nucleoside relatives, inosine and guanosine on early cellular responses to hypoxia. O2-sensitive neuronal PC12-cells were subjected to chemical hypoxia induced with rotenone, an inhibitor of mitochondrial complex I. … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 6,853 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Feasibility Study of Challenges and Opportunities in Computational Biology: A Malaysian PerspectiveR. J.A. Richard, N. SriraamThe term computational biology refers to the knowledge derived from a computer analysis of biological data that includes identification of genes in DNA sequence of different organisms, prediction of structural and functional mechanism of proteins, feature extraction and classification of genomics and proteomics. Computational biology is a rapidly developing branch of science and is highly interdisciplinary, using techniques and Concepts … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2005 · 6,924 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOverweight and School: Are There Any Perceived Achievement Consequences of Overweight Among American Youth?Cody Ding, Jason BornhopIn an effort to address the issue of overweight among youth, there is a growing body of research concerning the procurement food, the consequences of ingesting it and knowledge of the cultural cuisine rules (such as American cuisine may include hot dogs, hamburgers, fries and apple pie). However, there are few studies that examine the relationships between overweight and academic … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 7,424 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Environmental Decision Support System Based on a Multidimensional PrototypeGeorgakellos Dimitrios, Macris AristomenisThe present study utilizes the principles and data provided by the Environmental Priority Strategies (EPS) methodology in order to create a multidimensional prototype, which intends to assist the damage assessment process in this kind of projects. The EPS system, based on Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) methodology, is developed to help designers and product developers in finding which one of two … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 6,620 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIdentification of Nocardiopsis dassonvillei in a Blood Sample from a ChildFlavio Lejbkowicz, Raya Kudinsky, Luisa Samet et al.Nocardiopsis dassonvillei is an environmental aerobic actinomycete producing a funguslike mycelium and aerial hyphae. Here we report the first Nocardiopsis dassonvillei isolated from a blood sample from a 3-year-old child hospitalized with fever, respiratory difficulty and cough. To the best of our knowledge this is the first time this organism has been detected in the BacT/Alert system. This Nocardiopsis was … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2005 · 7,280 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMolecular Characterization of Banana (AA) Diploids with Contrasting Levels of Black and Yellow Sigatoka ResistanceClaudia Fortes Ferreira, Sebastiao Oliveira Silva, Nivia Paula Damasceno Sobrinho et al.Most banana cultivars are susceptible to many diseases, whereas Sigatoka leads to greatest yield losses. One of the strategies to overcome this disease is thorough banana genetic breeding which consists in the obtainment of improved (AA) diploids which are then crossed with triploids obtaining (AAAB) tetraploid disease resistant bananas also presenting other important agronomic characteristics. The prior knowledge of the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2004 · 7,652 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNew Approach in Application of the AHP–Fuzzy TOPSIS Method in Mineral Potential Mapping of the Natural Bitumen (Gilsonite): A Case Study from the Gilan-e-Gharb Block, the Kermanshah, West of IranElham Rahimi, Younes Shekarian, Salman Mastri Farahani et al.The Gilan-e-Gharb block is known as a prospective area for hydrocarbon resources in the form of oil, gas in deep potential and natural bitumen (Gilsonite) on the surface. Natural bitumen is not clearly detectable by geochemical or geophysical methods. Hereupon, identifying high potential areas for further exploration, attempted with the help of AHP-Fuzzy and TOPSIS methods. The comprehensive database of … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 1 · 2 Mar 2020 · 7,980 accessesView PDFCite
