Tumor necrosis factor (TNF) alpha participates in the regulation of the acute-phase, immune, and inflammatory responses. Target genes known to be transcriptionally activated by TNF-alpha include the granulocyte (G)-colony-stimulating factor (CSF) gene, the granulocyte/macrophage (GM)-CSF gene, as well as the interleukin (IL) 6 gene. Functional nuclear factor (NF)-IL6 recognition sites have been...

A comprehensive study of the various modulation techniques has been discussed which helps to increase data rate, to overcome dispersion effects and various non-linear effects in the fibre. Modulation formats such as OOK (On Off Keying), BPSK (Binary Phase Shift Keying), DPSK (Differential Phase Shift Keying), DP-QPSK (Dual Polarized Quadrature Phase Shift Keying) and duobinary are studied. The ...

Chinese white shrimp Fenneropenaeus chinensis is a commercially important species in northern China and Korea. In the present study, the genetic diversity of five populations collected from Qingdao (QD), Rizhao (RZ) of China, and Narodo Island (KN), Taean (KT), Yeongguang (KY) of Korea in the Yellow Sea was investigated using the mitochondrial control region (CR). The length of the amplified pa...

The CDC classifies Francisella tularensis as a Category A bioterrorism agent. Due to the risk of potential release antibiotic-resistant F. strains, new therapeutics against must be developed. Resazomycins are resazurin (Rz)-based compounds that exhibit antimicrobial activity and other gram-negative bacteria. mode action resazomycins is not understood, but targets antibiotic were identified in h...
