Figure A2. QRT-PCR analysis of OR expression for OR families 4, 5, 7, and 9. There was no statistical difference of OR expression between PEA (red bars) and control fish (blue bars) for any of the families tested. Similar results were observed for two different stocks (#1111 (dark shades) and #1106 (light shades)) of imprinted fish. All OR expression data was normalized to expression of β-actin .

To the editor: We wish to offer some cautionary remarks concerning the report by de Graaf et al. [1] about the first human tick-borne encephalitis (TBE) infection in the Netherlands, acquired in June 2016 (and not in July, as incorrectly mentioned in the title). At first sight, this case, apparently proven by ELISA and confirmed by neutralisation tests (NT), seems extremely convincing, especial...

While many data are available on genes encoding proteins for degradation of hydrocarbons in bacteria, the impact of alkane on transporter protein expression is unclear. Pseudomonas aeruginosa SJTD-1 is a strain that can consume medium- and long-chain n-alkanes. In order to study the proteins involved in n-octadecane uptake, we use iTRAQ and label free comparative proteomics analysis to identify...

هدف: سوء‌مصرف مواد عبارت است از الگوی غیرانطباقی مصرف که طریق پیامدهای نامطلوب عودکننده و قابل‌ملاحظه مرتبط با استعمال مکرر ظاهر می‌شود. متغیرهای چندگانه بر شدت، مدت درمان اختلالات سوءمصرف تأثیر می‌گذارند. برآوردها در سال ۲۰۱۷ نشان داد ۲۷۱ میلیون نفر جهان یک یا چند ماده‌مخدر استفاده کرده‌اند. پژوهش حاضر نوع علی‌-مقایسه‌ای بود، هدف مقایسه تکانشوری، استحکام من، ناگویی هیجانی حمایت اجتماعی ادراک‌ش...

We investigate the effect of pair creation on a shock structure. Actually, particles accelerated by a shock can be sufficiently energetic to boost, via Inverse Compton (IC) process for example, surrounding soft photons above the rest mass electron energy and thus to trigger the pair creation process. The increase of the associated pair pressure is thus able to disrupt the plasma flow and possib...

BACKGROUND Previous findings regarding risk factors for human papillomavirus (HPV) persistence, other than viral determinants, identified from prospective cohort studies have been inconsistent in part because study designs have differed with respect to differing HPV detection methods and varying lengths of follow-up time. Therefore, the objectives of this study were to continue the search for e...

The purpose of this study was to compare hybrid capture assay with PCRs using different primers for the L1, E6-E7 regions for the detection of human papillomavirus (HPV) genome. One hundred twenty-five cervical smears with normal (n=42) and abnormal (n=83) cytology were investigated. Those at high-risk for HPV were studied by hybridization antibody capture assay and PCR with the pU-1M/pU-2R pri...
