Renalase is a kidney-secreted catecholamines-degrading enzyme whose expression and activity are downregulated by increased dietary phosphate. A renalase knockout (KO) mouse model was used to explore the mechanisms mediating renalase's effect on phosphate excretion. Compared with wild-type (WT) mice maintained on a regular diet, KO mice show decreased serum PO4(-) (KO = 5.3 ± 0.2 vs. WT = 6.0 ± ...

The aim of this article is to study the system piecewise linear difference equations xn+1=|xn|−yn−b and yn+1=xn−|yn|+1 where n≥0. A global behavior for b=4 shows that all solutions become equilibrium point. For a large value |x0| |y0|, we can prove (i) if b=5, then solution becomes point (ii) b≥6, periodic prime period 5.

Let Xn be the finite set {1,2,3· · ·, n} and On defined by On={α∈Tn:(∀x, y∈Xn), x⩽y→xα⩽yα}be semigroup of full order-preserving mapping on Xn. A transformation α in is called quasi-idempotent if α=α2=α4. We characterise show that generated. Moreover, we obtained an upper bound forquasi-idempotents rank On, is, showed cardinality a minimum quasi-idempotents generating for less than or equal to ⌈...

Nanomaterials are extensively studied in electrochemical energy storage and conversion systems because of their structural advantages. However, their volumetric energy density still needs improvement due to the high surface area, especially the carbon based nanocomposites. Constructing hierarchical micro-scaled materials from closely stacked subunits is proposed as an effective way to solve the...

This study was conducted Ismailoglu grape type (Vitis vinifera L.) and its vine which was aged 15 was grown on its own root in a vegetation period of 2013 in Nevşehir province in Turkey. In this research, it was investigated whether the applications of Control (C), 1/3 cluster tip reduction (1/3 CTR), shoot tip reduction (STR), 1/3 CTR + STR, TKI-HUMAS (TKI-HM) (Soil) (S), TKIHM (Foliar) (F), T...

In this article, we present an A- stable block integrator scheme for the solution of first order system IVP ordinary differential equations. The at a single integration step produces four approximate values yn+1, yn+2, yn+3 and yn+4 point xn+1, xn+2, xn+3 xn+4 respectively. stability property are checked, method is zero stable, A–stable 6. Some test problems solved with proposed result compared...
