Background: Tumor response after multimodality treatment using combination of radiation, chemotherapeutic drugs and hyperthermia usually assessed by parameters such as tumor growth delay, volume doubling time and regression response. The study herein was conducted to investigate the usefulness of micronucleus assay for assessing the multimodality treatment. Materials and Methods: The ...

Abstract The two compounds Fe 2 B 3 O 7 ( a = 663.61(4), c 438.39(3) pm, space group: P 4 ‾ $\overline{4}$ 1 m ) and Mn 4 (B 6 13 (OH)) 445.14(1), b 683.56(2), 1330.34(3) β 90.42(1)°, / were synthesized under high-pressure/high-tempera...

We present a survey of an open problem concerning the dimension of the algebra generated by three commuting matrices. This article concerns a problem in algebra that is completely elementary to state, yet, has proven tantalizingly difficult and is as yet unsolved. Consider C[A,B,C] , the C-subalgebra of the n × n matrices Mn(C) generated by three commuting matrices A, B, and C. Thus, C[A,B,C] c...

Background Based on the fact that B-cell activating factor (BAFF) and a proliferation-inducing ligand (APRIL) have a regulatory role in B cell biology, excessive levels of these cytokines can promote autoimmune pathogenesis. However, the expression and implication remain unresolved in cases of membranous nephropathy (MN). Results The plasma BAFF levels of the primary MN patients were higher t...

A new silver aluminium trimangan-ese penta-molybdate {silver(I) trimanganese(II) aluminium penta-kis-[tetra-oxidomolybdate(VI)]}, AgMn(II) 3(Mn(III) 0,26Al0,74)(MoO4)5, has been synthesized using solid-state methods. The structure is composed of M 2O10 dimers, M 3O14 (M = Mn, Al) trimers and MoO4 tetra-hedra sharing corners and forming three types of layers A, B and B'. The sequence of the cons...

This paper presents the reinforcement of nanocellulose (NC) in polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) to examine effect amount on properties PVA. The was successfully extracted by sulfuric acid hydrolysis method and ultrasonication, successively reinforced with solvent-casting method. After incorporating into PVA matrix, tensile strength, elongation at break, water absorption capacity, transmittance, thermal ...

We have correlated the structure-property relationship of three manganese-based inorganic-organic hybrid structures. Compound 1, [Mn2(OH-BDC)2(DMF)3] (where BDC = 1,4-benzene dicarboxylic acid and DMF = N,N'-dimethylformamide), contains Mn2O11 dimers as secondary building units (SBUs), which are connected by carboxylate anions forming Mn-O-C-O-Mn chains. Compound 2, [Mn2(BDC)2(DMF)2], contains ...
