Immigrant and resident leukocytes are the main immune components of endometrial and decidual tissue. Altered immune responses have been suspected to be involved in idiopathic recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) pathogenesis. We aimed to investigate the plasma cytokine levels and endometrial leukocyte subpopulations of RPL cases. This study was conducted with 60 idiopathic RPL (28 primary and 32 seco...

We present the Tamajaq language and the dictionary we used as main linguistic resource in the two first parts. The third part details the complex morphology of this language. In the part 4 we describe the conversion of the dictionary into electronic form, the inflectional rules we wrote and their implementation in the Nooj software. Finally we present a plan for our future work. 1. The Tamajaq ...

AISI 4140 steel is in the class of medium carbon low-alloy steels and widely used industry due to its high hardenability being a relatively economical steel. also among that can be nitrided. With nitriding process, thanks hard nitride layer obtained on surface, not only wear-resistant surface provided, but an increase fatigue strength. In this study, microstructural properties steel, which has ...

Clinker-free carbonate-bonded (CFCB) products are construction materials produced by co-utilizing CO2 and alkaline industrial residues (AIR) in water-AIR systems, without any clinker components. The cementing properties of the CFCB rely almost entirely on capability Ca-rich carbonates resulting from accelerated carbonation, do not depend formation conventional binder (e.g., C-S-H). technology i...

Background. Although several energy devices targeting sebaceous glands have been developed, an effective and safe therapeutic tool for hyperseborrhea is still needed. Nonthermal atmospheric-pressure plasma (NTAPP) induces microscopic tissue reactions in of rat skin. Objective. The aim the study to investigate effects NTAPP on sebum production human skin vivo followed by experimental sebocytes. ...

BACKGROUND Pre-eclampsia (PE) is known as a main factor contributing to fetomaternal mortality, which might affect 2-8% of all pregnancies after the twentieth week of gestation. The balance of T helper subsets is essential to sustain a normal pregnancy and preventing fetomaternal complications. OBJECTIVE To investigate differences in the levels of transcription factors and cytokine gene expre...

BACKGROUND AND AIMS Hepatic cholesterol deposition drives inflammation and fibrosis in non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). The Niemann-Pick type C2 (NPC2) protein plays an important role in regulating intracellular cholesterol trafficking and homeostasis. We hypothesized that intravenous NPC2 supplementation reduces cholesterol accumulation, hepatic inflammation and fibrogenesis in a nutritio...

Duchenne muscular dystrophy is a severe and currently incurable progressive neuromuscular condition, caused by mutations in the DMD gene that result in the inability to produce dystrophin. Lack of dystrophin leads to loss of muscle fibres and a reduction in muscle mass and function. There is evidence from dystrophin-deficient mouse models that increasing levels of utrophin at the muscle fibre s...
