Endothelial cell morphology needs to be properly regulated during angiogenesis. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) induces endothelial cell elongation, which promotes sprouting of pre-existing vessels. However, therapeutic angiogenesis using VEGF has been hampered by side effects such as elevated vascular permeability. Here, we attempted to induce endothelial cell elongation without an o...

Structural steel sections are mainly used in beams and columns of building frames. Iran National Steel IndustrialGroup is among the oldest and largest producers of beams in Iran. It has two beam production lines, namely Line630 and Line 650. In this study, the mechanical properties of manufactured beams in these production lines werecompared. Based on the t-test results, the e...

Fullering process is a type of open die forging. In this research, elongation and maximum sideways spread in final shape of a billet after the first blow of a fullering process are predicted by designing a back propagation multilayer perceptron neural network. Several experiments are conducted using lead as the model material. Billets with three different square cross-sections are used in these...

this study was conducted to assess the effects of irrigation and plant growth promoting bactera on seed yield and qualitative characteristics of black cumin (nigella sativa l.) at the experimental station of the research institute of forest and rangeland, damavan region, iran. a split-plot experimental design, based on randomized complete block design (rcbd) with three replications, was used. i...

By using a crosslinkable probe incorporated into the 3' terminus of nascent transcript, three sites were mapped in Escherichia coli RNA polymerase that are contacted by the RNA in the productive elongation complex. Two of these sites are in the beta subunit and one is in the beta' subunit. During elongation, the transcription complex occasionally undergoes an arrest whereby it can neither exten...
