1. We hypothesized that the xanthine aminophylline acts to block adenosine receptors on the surface of skeletal muscle fibres, thereby inhibiting a depressant action of endogenous adenosine. We further hypothesized that this action results in increased concentrations of intracellular resting Ca2+ and enhanced twitch tension upon muscle stimulation. 2. Peak twitch tension (Pt) of the semitendino...

OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to assess the protective effects of vitamin A in a rat model of colitis to elucidate a possible mechanism of action. METHODS Male rats were fed for 21 d with either a normal diet or high vitamin A diet (5000 IU/d). On day 22, colitis was induced with 2,4,6-trinitrobenzenesulfonic acid (TNBS). Rats were sacrificed after 24 h and colonic tissue was removed f...

The predominant organizational theme by which the transcription machinery and chromatin regulators are positioned within promoter regions or throughout genes in a genome is largely unknown. We mapped the genomic location of diverse representative components of the gene regulatory machinery in Saccharomyces cerevisiae to an experimental resolution of <40 bp. Sequence-specific gene regulators, ch...

Transparency has been, for long, a general requirement for democratic societies. The right to be informed as well as to have access to information has been an important issue on modern societies. Nowadays, Transparency has been elevated to a must have property to be delivered by governments and businesses. In an era when computer systems are ubiquitous and present in almost every aspect of our ...

The use of antimicrobials and toxic metals should be considered carefully in aquaculture and surrounding environments. We aimed to evaluate medically relevant bacteria in an aquaculture system and their susceptibility to antimicrobials and toxic metals. Selective cultures for enterobacteria (ENT), non-fermenting Gram-negative rods (NFR) and Gram-positive cocci (GPC) were obtained from water sam...

Adaptability is emerging as an important attribute or nonfunctional requirement (NFR) for embedded systems. Intuitively, adaptability is the ability of a software system to accommodate changes in its environment. However, in order for the embedded system to be adaptable its architecture, the first step in the development, should itself be adaptable. It will be helpful if the generation of this ...

Information systems (ISs) are composed of functional requirements (FRs) and non-functional requirements (NFRs). An NFR does not determine the function of the system itself, but the quality characteristics of an IS; for example, error handling, auditing, and access control. Non-functional requirements are often included in the coding phase of the IS, and these generally are present in various pa...
