conclusions the occurrence of sam in pauci-autoimmune vasculitis is rarely described, particularly in africa. our case is an illustration of the reality of this association. introduction we reported a case of hemophagocytic syndrome complicating microscopic polyangitis presented by crescentic glomerulonephritis. case presentation a 22-year-old female patient originated from dakar, senegal prese...

Introduction: Low-energy helium-neon (He-Ne) laser beam lightis used in combination with sodium hypochlorite (Na2HOCl3) for clinical purposes. Regarding this, the present study aimed to investigate the effect of He-Ne laser (632.8 nm) and sodium hypochlorite on the calf thymus double-stranded deoxyribonucleic acid (ctdsDNA) molecule.  Materials and Methods: For the purpose of the study, ctdsDNA...

Bacteriophage T4-coded gene 32-protein is an essential component of the T4 replication and recombination systems. Alberts and co-workers (Alberts, B.M., Amodio, F.J., Jenkins, M., Gutmann, E.D., and Ferris, F.L. (1968) Cold Spring Harbor Symp. Quant. Biol. 33, 289-305) have shown that the major physiological activity of the protein involves preferential and cooperative binding to single-strande...

In Part I of this series we have emphasized the fact that ansemia must be regarded as a disease of the erythron, that is, as a disease which not only may affect the red cells in the circulating blood, but also their precursors in haemopoietic centres of the marrow and elsewhere, although both portions of the erythron do not necessarily suffer to the same extent nor even at the same time. Such a...

The aimof research was to study morphofunctional signs of the sensorimotor "dark neurons" formation in cerebrum sexually mature white rats under normal conditions and 40 minutesafter common carotid arteries (CCA) occlusion. Material methods.Acute ischemia simulated Wistar by a 40-min CCA brain fixed immersion perfusion methods. A comparative morphometric assessment cyto-and gliocytoarchitectoni...

FIGURE 1 Peripheral blood smear multiple yeasts in neutrophil (arrow). 1,000x magnification – Giemsa staining). A 40-year-old man with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection, diagnosed in 2008, and irregular use of antiretroviral therapy, was admitted to the emergency room with diarrhea, asthenia, fever, and weight loss of 4kg in the previous 10 days. His evacuations were watery, with no ...

The newly synthesized ligand, dihydro OO'bis(salicylidene) 2,2' aminobenzothiazolyl borate (2), was derived from the reaction of Schiff base of 2-aminobenzothiazole and salicylaldehyde with KBH(4). Cu(II) (3) and Zn(II) (4) complexes of (2) were synthesized and further metallated with dimethyltindichloride to yield heterobimetallic complexes (5) and (6). All complexes have been thoroughly chara...

Fluorescent Organic Nanoparticles (FONs), prepared by self-aggregation of dedicated dyes in water, represent a promising green alternative to the toxic quantum dots (QDs) for bioimaging purposes. In the present paper, we describe the synthesis and photophysical properties of new dipolar push-pull derivatives built from thieno[3,2-b]thiophene as a π-conjugated bridge that connects a triphenylami...
