The present investigation entitled, “Effect of integrated nutrient management on corm and cormels production gladiolus cv. PDKV Gold” was carried out during the years 2018-19 2019-20 at College Agriculture Garden, Dr. Panjabrao Deshmukh Krishi Vidyapeeth, Akola (M.S.).The experiment laid in Randomized Block Design with three replications thirteen treatments. results revealed that, yield paramet...

AIM To investigate the mechanisms underlying the potential contribution of the heme oxygenase/carbon monoxide (HO/CO) pathway in the constipating effects of granisetron. METHODS For in vivo studies, gastrointestinal motility was evaluated in male rats acutely treated with granisetron [25, 50, 75 μg/kg/subcutaneous (sc)], zinc protoporphyrin IX [ZnPPIX, 50 μg/kg/intraperitoneal (ip)] and hemin...

OBJECTIVE Carbon monoxide (CO) is a weak soluble guanylyl cyclase stimulator, leading to transient increases in cGMP and vasodilation. The aim of the present work was to measure the effect of CO-releasing molecules (CORMs) on the cGMP/nitric oxide (NO) pathway and to evaluate how selected CORMs affect NO-induced vasorelaxation. METHODS AND RESULTS Incubation of smooth muscle cells with some b...

to evaluate the effect of nano-iron chelate and also to make a comparison with effect of eddha iron chelate on saffron, an experiment was conducted as factorial based on a randomized complete block design with six treatments and three replications in shahed university, tehran in 2011 and 2012. treatments included iron fertilizer (nano chelate and common chelate) in three levels (zero, 450 and 9...

AIM The objective of this study was to evaluate the potential of Gabing San Fernando (Xanthosoma spp.) corms as partial carbohydrate replacement for maize in finisher broiler production. MATERIALS AND METHODS The completely randomized design was utilized to investigate the effects of three finisher poultry diets prepared in varying amounts of cocoyam-corm meal set at 0% (control), 25%, and 50...

We investigated the metabolism of mouse isolated heart under influence tricarbonyldichlorothenium (II)- dimer (CORM-2 and 2,3-4,5-bis-O-isopropylidene-βD-fructopyranose sulfamate (topiramate) as potential blockers aquaporine channel (AQP3) cardiac myocytes. The results were compared with those obtained from group receiving anti-AQP3 monoclonal antibodies. A decrease in coronary flow was found d...

in order to investigate the effect of high density and depth of planting on agronomic characteristic of saffron, a field experiment was conducted as a complete randomized block design with three replications in faculty of agriculture, ferdowsi university of mashhad, iran during two growing seasons of 2008-2009 and 2009-2010. treatments were six levels of high densities (8, 11, 13, 16, 19 and 21...

Crop production is inherently sensitive to climatic variations. Flowers have been admired and used by human to beautify their environment, and also as objects of romance, ritual, religion, medicine and as a source of food. Gladiolus (Gladiolus grandiflorus Andrews; family Iridaceae) is an important bulbous cut flower grown all over the world. The present study was carried out to check the growt...

Heme oxygenase-1-derived carbon monoxide prevents inflammatory vascular disorders. To date, there is no clear evidence that HO-1/CO prevents endothelial dysfunction associated with the downregulation of endothelial NO synthesis in human endothelial cells stimulated with TNF-α. Here, we found that the CO-releasing compound CORM-2 prevented TNF-α-mediated decreases in eNOS expression and NO/cGMP ...
