Imbalanced immune responses against fetus alloantigens can lead to abnormality in pregnancy. Interleukin-10(IL-10) plays key roles in regulation of immune responses against self and foreign antigens to induce tolerance to these antigens. Therefore, alteration in expression of IL-10 during pregnancy may result in several pathologic conditions such as preterm labor. IL-10 leads to a normal pregna...

  Objective(s):  Infection by high-risk papillomavirus is regarded as the major risk factor in the development of cervical cancer. Recombinant DNA technology allows expression of the L1 major capsid protein of HPV in different expression systems, which has intrinsic capacity to self-assemble into viral-like particles (VLP). VLPS are non-infectious, highly immunogenic and can elicit neutralizing...

In this study, a pretest-post-test, quasi-experimental method with control group used. The sample consists 60 students enrolled in two public middle schools affiliated Aksaray Central Provincial Directorate National Ed...

This chapter covers a reference architecture for describing and engineering computational self-awareness and self-expression in computing systems. The architecture provides a common language with which to engineer the capabilities exercised by a “self” at a fine resolution inspired by concepts from psychology. The “self” demarked by the reference architecture is conceptual in nature, and theref...

Abstract Introduction: Due to stressful work conditions, nurses are constantly exposed to various emotions and stressors such as anger and moral distress that threaten their mental health. On the other hand, self-esteem is one of the personality traits essential for people's mental health and improving their performance. Objective: The present study investigates the relationship between ange...

the main purpose of this study was to examine psychometric properties of a short version of the self-regulation inventory (sri-s) including internal consistency, test-retest reliability, content validity, and convergent and discriminant validity. three hundred and fifty seven iranian volunteers (150 males, 207 females) were included in this study. all participants were asked to complete the sri...

a self-regulated high-copy number plasmid containing chloramphenicol resistant gene, for the production of recombinant proteins under the regulation of bacteriophage ?pl promoter, was constructed. the designed 5024 base pair expression plasmid contained a heat sensitive repressor ci857 coding gene to regulate the function of ?pl promoter under heat shock induction. using the constructed vector,...
