INTRODUCTION Celastrus paniculatus seed oil, commonly known as Malkangni or Jyotishmati, was in use from time immemorial to treat brain related disorders. Celastrus paniculatus seed oil has significant antidepressant-like activity in chronic unpredictable stressed mice. The present study was undertaken to evaluate the antidepressant-like effect of Celastrus paniculatus seed oil in unstressed mi...

the pharmacokinetic properties of amoxicillin and clavulanic acid when used alone or in combination may be different and show interaction between these two agents that might decrease the absolute bioavailability of clavulanic acid. in an open, randomized, replicated latin square under fasting condition, pharmacokinetics of new formulations of amoxicillin/clavulanic acid were compared with a ref...

Monolayer and suspension cell cultures prepared from Hodgkin's disease tumors in the spleen were examined microscopically and by cytogenetics, tested for lymphocyte and monocyte cell surface properties, and assayed for enzymes by histochemical and spectrophotometric techniques. Hodgkin's disease monolayer cultures were composed of rapidly proliferating round and polygonal cells that were capabl...

Abstract Cell injection is a common clinical approach for therapeutic delivery into diseased and damaged tissues in order to achieve regeneration. However, cell retention, viability, engraftment at the site have generally been poor, driving need improved approaches. Here, we developed technique shrink-wrap micropatterned islands of corneal endothelial cells basement membrane-like layer extracel...

Future curative cancer chemotherapies have to overcome tumor cell heterogeneity and plasticity. To test the hypothesis that the tumor suppressor maspin may reduce microenvironment-dependent prostate tumor cell plasticity and thereby modulate drug sensitivity, we established a new schematic combination of twodimensional (2D), three-dimensional (3D), and suspension cultures to enrich prostate can...

There is a growing demand for magnetic suspension, combined with electromagnetic propulsion, especially in the field of high accuracy twoor three-dimensional positioning. No mechanical wear, dust free operation, and (ultra) high vacuum compatibility are strong motivations to at least consider the application of magnetic bearings. This paper presents a novel Planar Active Magnetic Bearing [PAMB]...
