متن کاملDamaging effects of water-borne cadmium chloride on DNA of lung cells of immature mice.
We investigated the effects of cadmium on lung cell DNA in immature mice. The mice were randomly divided into four groups: control group, low-dose group (1/100 LD(50)), middle-dose group (1/50 LD(50)), and high-dose group (1/25 LD(50)); they were supplied with cadmium chloride or control water for 40 days. Lung cells collected from sacrificed mice were used to evaluate the extent of DNA ...
متن کاملNitric oxide and superoxide, a deadly cocktail.
Free radicals and oxidants may have contrasting effects on cells. Nitric oxide is a cellular messenger that acts by several mechanisms, including activation of soluble guanylate cyclase, nitrosylation of thiols, and formation of peroxynitrite. The action of nitric oxide depends on oxidative conditions in the cell. In motor neurons, nitric oxide enhances brain-derived neurotrophic factor effects...

متن کاملCocktail II
Cocktail II (a further development of Cocktail) is an interactive tool for deriving programs from specifications. Instead of verifying a program after it was constructed, Cocktail II aids the goal oriented derivation of a program. First, the user provides a preand postcondition. Then, the gap between these conditions is filled by manually inserting statements, constructing the program step by s...
