Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleRole of AP-1 Antagonism in Growth Inhibition of Cervical Cancer Cell Lines by RetinoidsShennan Lu, Doris M. BenbrookRetinoid compounds induce multiple molecular effects that need to be taken into consideration in the development of theses agents as pharmaceuticals for cancer chemoprevention. Inhibition of cancer cell growth by retinoids is thought to occur through at least two mechanisms of transcriptional regulation resulting from direct binding of retinoids to nuclear retinoid receptors (RARs and RXR’s). First, the nuclear receptors … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2006 · 7,477 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAntagonism Between Chlorpyrifos and Flaxedil in Toad and Earthworm Neuromuscular TransmissionYong-Chiang Chang, Amauri B. Bartoszeck, Samir A. Madeira, Charles I. AbramsonThe cholinesterase inhibition effect of chlorpyrifos, a commercial insecticide, was tested by its antagonism to the acetylcholine inhibition effect of flaxedil in 30 isolated nerve-sartorius muscle preparations of the toad, compared with its antagonism in 30 isolated nerve cord-body wall muscle preparations of the earthworm. Inhibition and facilitation in this antagonism were measured by changes in depolarizing rate of toad … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2006 · 6,389 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsBiological Activity of Methyl tert-butyl Ether in Relation to Soil Microorganisms has a Negative Environmental ImpactGholam H.S. BonjarFuel oxygenates are added to gasoline to enhance combustion efficiency of automobiles and reduce air pollution. Methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE) is the most commonly used oxygenate because of its low cost, high-octane level and ease of blending with gasoline. However, due to its water solubility, high mobility and low biodegradability it leaches in soil subsurface at the speed of groundwater. … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 6,661 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractScreening and Characterization of Sponge-Associated Bacteria Producing Bioactive Compounds Anti-Vibrio sp.Aris Tri Wahyudi, Jepri Agung Priyanto, Wenang Maharsiwi, Rika Indri AstutiIn Indonesia, vibriosis is the main disease in shrimp. This disease is caused by Vibrio sp that may decrease the productivity of shrimp cultivation. Thus, exploration for new bioactive compounds as vibriosis biocontrol agent is necessary. Marine sponge-associated bacteria is one of many sources for bioactive compounds. The aim of this study was to screen marine sponge-associated bacteria producing anti-Vibrio … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 14, Issue 3 · 5 Oct 2018 · 10,357 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTrazodone: A Review of Its Pharmacological Properties and Its Off-Label Use in Dogs and CatsBunna Chea, Mario GiorgiTrazodone is approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of depression and anxiety in humans, it can perform these functions due to its selective serotonin receptor antagonism and reuptake inhibition properties. Trazodone has not been approved for animals by the FDA but it is legally prescribed by veterinarians as an off-label drug for dogs and cats. … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 4 · 31 Oct 2017 · 10,858 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIn Vitro Antagonist Action of Trichoderma Strains Against Sclerotinia sclerotiorum and Sclerotium cepivorumFrancisco Daniel Hernandez Castillo, Angelica Maria Berlanga Padilla, Gabriel Gallegos Morales et al.Problem statement: Sclerotinia sclerotiorum and Sclerotium cepivorum are soil pathogens which have generated resistance to synthetic fungicides. One biological alternative to this problem is to select novel strains of Trichoderma with different mechanisms of action against these plant pathogens to ensure efficient control. Approach: In the present research was determined the antagonism effect of Mexicans Trichoderma strains on S. sclerotiorum … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 16 Aug 2011 · 9,823 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIdentification of Volatile Metabolites from Fungal Endophytes with Biocontrol Potential towards Fusarium oxysporum F. sp. cubense Race 4A.S.Y. Ting, S.W. Mah, C.S. TeeProblem statement: Fungal endophytes are widely studied for their potential as biocontrol agents towards fungal pathogens. In vitro assessments usually reveal their antibiosis and mycoparasitism nature, but little is understood regarding their production of volatile metabolites as mechanisms of antagonism. Approach: This study explored the potential of fungal endophytes in controlling the pathogen responsible for Fusarium wilt disease. Nine fungal … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 11,872 accessesView PDFCite

It was divided into two parts of research results. In the first part, I articulated a reading of former Korean president Roh's discourses focusing on the populist dimensions of his rhetoric. His discourse was organized according to … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2008 · 8,363 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCardiovascular Effect of Capparis spinosa Aqueous Extract. Part VI: in vitro Vasorelaxant EffectN. A. Zeggwagh, J. B. Michel, M. EddouksThe aim of this study was to investigate the in vitro vasorelaxanteffect of Capparis spinosa aqueous extract (CSAE) at a dose of 10 mg mL-1. Aortic rings isolated from normal wistar rats were used. The addition of CSAE during the plateau phase of contraction, induced by noradrenaline and KCl, produced a rapid relaxation. Incubation of aortic ring with CSAE during … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2007 · 7,444 accessesView PDFCite
