In this work, we provide estimates of the branching ratios, direct $CP$ asymmetries and triple product in $B_{(s)} \to (\pi\pi)(K\pi)$ decays perturbative QCD approach, where $\pi\pi$ $K\pi$ invariant mass spectra are dominated by vector resonances $\rho(770)$ $K^*(892)$, respectively. Some scalar backgrounds, such as $f_0(500,980) \pi\pi$ $K^*_0(1430) K\pi$ also accounted for. The $\rho(700)$ ...

Gorgonian octocorals lack corroborated hypotheses of phylogeny. This study reconstructs genealogical relationships among some octocoral species based on published DNA sequences from the large ribosomal subunit of the mitochondrial RNA (lsu-rRNA, 16S: 524bp and 21 species) and the small subunit of the nuclear RNA (ssu-rRNA, 18S: 1815bp and 13 spp) using information from insertions-deletions (IND...

Previously it was shown that the antimicrobial protein granulysin possesses potent membranolytic activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Here we demonstrate that granF2 and G13, which are two short synthetic peptides derived from granulysin, inhibited the in vitro growth of clinical isolates of both multidrug resistant and drug susceptible strains of M. tuberculosis. Importantly, a particu...

Although regulation of voltage-dependent calcium current (ICa,V) by neurotransmitters is a ubiquitous mechanism among nerve cells, the signaling pathways involved are not well understood. We have determined previously that in a neuroblastoma-glioma hybrid cell line (NG108-15), the heterotrimeric G-protein G13 mediates the inhibition of ICa,V produced by bradykinin (BK) via an unknown mechanism....

Phosphorus (P), in the form of phosphate ion (Pi), is a vital element contributing in biomolecule structures, metabolic reactions, signaling pathways and energy transfer within the living cells. The objective of the present study was to assess the influence of fungal infection on Pi metabolism in compare to the effects of phosphate stress in Arabidopsis. Quantification of total P contents showe...

In this paper, at first we mention to some results related to PI and vertex Co-PI indices and then we introduce the edge versions of Co-PI indices. Then, we obtain some properties about these new indices.
