Adaptive variation tends to emerge clinally along environmental gradients or discretely among habitats with limited connectivity. However, in Atlantic killifish (Fundulus heteroclitus), a population genetic discontinuity appears in the absence of obvious barriers to gene flow along parallel salinity clines and coincides with a physiologically stressful salinity. We show that populations residen...

Objective: To formulate a mathematical model of odontogenic cyst growth and establish the dynamics of cyst enlargement and the role of osmotic pressure forces throughout its growth. Study design: The model assumed a spherical cyst with a semi-permeable lining of living cells and a core consisting of degraded cellular material, including a generic osmotic material, fed by the continuous death of...

Article history: Received on: 09/07/2013 Revised on: 16/09/2013 Accepted on: 03/10/2013 Available online: 31/10/2013 The aim of the study was to develop a formulation of Ticagrelor 90 mg tablets that is equivalent to the reference product using similar excipients to match the in-vitro dissolution profile. A compressed coated tablet was formulated consisting of Ticagrelor and excipients conformi...

Adaptation to changes in osmolarity is fundamental for the survival of living cells, and has implications in food and industrial biotechnology. It has been extensively studied in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, where the Hog1 stress activated protein kinase was discovered about 20 years ago. Hog1 is the core of the intracellular signaling pathway that governs the adaptive response to osmoti...

The purpose of the present work was to design and optimize compression coated floating pulsatile drug delivery systems of bisoprolol. Floating pulsatile concept was applied to increase the gastric residence of the dosage form having lag phase followed by a burst release. The prepared system consisted of two parts: a core tablet containing the active ingredient and an erodible outer shell with g...

Background: Recurrent abortion is defined as three or more consecutive pregnancy losses. We aimed to determine the relationship between male sperm parameters and hypo-osmotic swelling score and recurrent abortion. We also studied whether washing of spermatozoa and intrauterine insemination in patients with recurrent miscarriage and low score hypo-osmotic swelling test in male partners could imp...

it has been observed that most of the chemical entities have high lipophilicity and poor aqueous solubility, which result in poor bioavailability. in order to improve the bioavailability, the release behavior of such drugs should be improved. although there are numerous techniques to handle solubility related issue, but they are expensive due to involvement of complicated equipments, advanced m...

Dehydrins are a family of desiccation proteins that were identified originally in plants (T.J. Close, A.A. Kortt, P.M. Chandler [1989] Plant Mol Biol 13: 95-108; G. Galau, T.J. Close [1992] Plant Physiol 98: 1523-1525). Dehydrins are characterized by the consensus amino acid sequence domain EKKGIMDKIKEKLPG found at or near the carboxy terminus; the core of this domain (KIKEKLPG) may be repeated...

Heat acclimatization improves thermoregulatory responses to heat stress and decreases sweat sodium concentration ([Na(+)](sweat)). The reduced [Na(+)](sweat) results in a larger increase in plasma osmolality (P(osmol)) at a given amount of sweat output. The increase in P(osmol) inhibits thermoregulatory responses to increased body core temperature. Therefore, we hypothesized that the inhibitory...
