Epigenetic: A missing paradigm in cellular and molecular pathways of sulfur mustard lung: a prospective and comparative study

Sulfur mustard (SM, bis- (2-chloroethyl) sulphide) is a chemical warfare agent that causes DNA alkylation, protein modification and membrane damage. SM can trigger several molecular pathways involved in inflammation and oxidative stress, which cause cell necrosis and apoptosis, and loss of cells integrity and function. Epigenetic regulation of gene expression is a growing research topic and is ...

The Iranian Mustard Gas Victims’ Quality of Life: A meta-analysis

Investigating the Prevalence of COVID-19 In A Deprived Area Using Diagnostic Tests: A Cross-Sectional Study Reflecting Capability of Jihadi and Military Forces

Background and Aim: Corona antibody testing is one of the common methods used for diagnosing coronavirus infection due to its low cost, easy access, short testing time, and convenient sampling. Iran, with its valuable Jihadi and military resources, has been able to take some effective steps in controlling the crisis caused by this disease. This is especially important in disadvantaged and under...

Challenges for the 'chemical-systems' biologist.

As the field of chemical biology matures, its practitioners are tackling ever more sophisticated biological problems. Chemical approaches, both synthetic and analytical, provide researchers with powerful new technologies to perturb, dissect and even reconstruct complex biological systems. Here we discuss the special challenges and opportunities confronted at the burgeoning interface of chemical...

Screening chemical composition of essential oils and antioxidant activities of two Artemisia species from Iran .

Essential oils of two wild-growing Artemisia species collected from west of Iran during the flowering stage were obtained by hydro-distillation and analyzed by gas chromatography (GC) and gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC–MS). Under the optimum extraction and analysis conditions, 23 and 19 constituents were identified in A. fragrans and A. hausskenechtii which represented 92.96% and 90.2...
