Last Supper for Mosquitoes
Cis-Diamminedichloroplatinum II (CDDP) has been recognized as one of the most active drugs against malignant tumours including ovarian cancer. However, CDDP is a toxic drug causing emesis, renal failure, hearing loss, neuropathy and anaemia. In view of these toxicities many investigators have attempted to develop new platinum analogues which retain anti-tumour activity with less toxicity. Among...
متن کاملPERMIAN-TRIASSIC BOUNDARY OF INDIAN SUBCONTINENT AND ITS INTERCONTINENTAL CORRELATION
The Permian-Triassic boundary in the Himalayas is reviewed and discussed in the light of palaeontologic and stratigraphic data collected during the past two and a half decades from Kashmir, Spiti and Nepal. The deposition of the Kuling Shales and their equivalents in different parts of the Himalayas was followed by shallowing and regression of the sea. Sedimentation was interrupted at the t...

In Nepal, unnumbered and medically unpublished small epidemics of mushroom poisoning take a heavy death toll annually. The present case de...
متن کاملNeural and endocranial anatomy of Triassic phytosaurian reptiles and convergence with fossil and modern crocodylians
Phytosaurs are a clade of large, carnivorous pseudosuchian archosaurs from the Late Triassic with a near cosmopolitan distribution. Their superficial resemblance to longirostrine (long-snouted) crocodylians, such as gharials, has often been used in the past to infer ecological and behavioural convergence between the two groups. Although more than thirty species of phytosaur are currently recogn...
متن کاملTerrestrial Origin of Viviparity in Mesozoic Marine Reptiles Indicated by Early Triassic Embryonic Fossils
Viviparity in Mesozoic marine reptiles has traditionally been considered an aquatic adaptation. We report a new fossil specimen that strongly contradicts this traditional interpretation. The new specimen contains the oldest fossil embryos of Mesozoic marine reptile that are about 10 million years older than previous such records. The fossil belongs to Chaohusaurus (Reptilia, Ichthyopterygia), w...
