Here we present the use of surface nanopatterning covalently immobilized BMP-2 and integrin selective ligands to determine specificity their interactions in regulating cell adhesion focal assembly. Gold nanoparticle arrays carrying single dimers are prepared by block-copolymer micellar nanolithography azide-functionalized (cyclic-RGD peptides or ?5?1 peptidomimetics) on surrounding polyethylene...

introduction: renin angiotensin system has an important role in blood pressure and renal functions. active angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 converts angiotensin i into angiotensin-(1-7) which is a vasodilator hormone and interacts with nitric oxide changes as well as other angiotensin ii receptors. in this study we evaluated the role of mas receptor antagonist (a779) and renal perfusion pressure...

Breast/mammary cancer is the most common in women due to abandoned breast tissue growth. Many therapies and treatments are available for treatment. However, each therapy or treatment has its side effect. The natural compound uncovered a significant influence on development of contemporary with reduced effects. But it lags behind race lesser bioavailability indecorous delivered dosage form. In t...

introduction: the brain glutamate neurotransmitter system and its nmda receptors in the nucleus accumbens play an important role in the incidence of the phenomena of sensitivity and addiction. the present study examined the inhibitory effect of glutamate nmda receptors in the nucleus accumbens in response to chronic stress. methods: after the unilateral and bilateral cannula placement in the nu...

neuroendocrine tumors (nets) constitute a heterogeneous group of neoplasms including carcinoids, pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors, pituitary tumors, medullary thyroid carcinoma and phaeochromocytomas. the symptoms and the outcome of nets differ considerably between patients depending on several factors. by labelling tracers with a radioisotope, the tracer acts as a carrier to deliver the radioa...

Previous findings have shown that saffron (Crocus sativus L.) extract and its active constituents produce antinociceptive effects in the rat models of orofacial pain. In the present study, the central H2 histaminergic and alpha-2 adrenergic receptors involvement in crocetin-induced antinociception in orofacial formalin pain in rats was evaluated.The guide cannula was implant...
