background: glaucomatous neuropathy is a type of cell death due to apoptosis. the p53 gene is one of the regulatory genes of apoptosis. recently, the association between the p53 gene encoding for proline at codon 72 and primary open-angle glaucoma (poag) has been studied in some ethnic groups. this study is the first association analysis of poag and p53 codon 72 polymorphism in iranian patients...

Description MMP2 is a Zn dependent endopeptidase, synthesized and secreted in zymogen form. The nascent form of the protein shows an N-terminal signal sequence ('pre' domain) that directs the protein to the endoplasmic reticulum. The pre domain is followed by a propeptide'pro' domain that maintains enzyme-latency until cleaved or disrupted, and a catalytic domain that contains the conserved zin...

Tumor-specific antigens are usually defined by monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) and can play critical roles in the diagnosis and therapy of carcinomas. Despite advances in the understanding of the molecular genetics of human prostate carcinomas, therapeutic approaches require that tumor-specific markers, preferably on the cell surface, should be defined. In this study, we examined the expression of...

Ahstract-Experiments are performed to develop a fundamental understanding of boiling incipience in wavy free-falling turbulent liquid films. Incipience conditions are measured and correlated for water and a fluorocarbon (FC-72) liquid. Incipience in water films is influenced by turbulent eddies and, to a larger extent, by interfacial waves. A new approach to predicting incipience in water and o...

The usefulness of water quality simulation models for environmental management is explored with a focus on prediction uncertainty. Ecological risk and environmental analysis often involve scientific assessments that are highly uncertain. Still, environmental management decisions are being made, often with the support of a mathematical simulation model. In the area of pollutant transport and fat...

ALCAPA syndrome (anomalous origin of the left coronary artery from the pulmonary artery), which causes the left coronary artery to grow with an anomalous origin from the pulmonary artery, is a rare disease which may result in myocardial infarction, congestive heart failure, and sometimes death during the early infantile period. A 72 year old woman with ALCAPA syndrome is presented. The asymptom...
