background: the anticancer agent imatinib (im) is a small molecular analog ofatp that inhibits tyrosine kinase activity of platelet derived growth factors (pdgfs)and stem cell factor (scf) receptor in cancer cells. however these factors have a keyrole in regulating growth and development of normal sertoli, leydig and germcells.objective: the aim of this study was to determine cell viability, pd...

this paper is to develop a knowledge management (km) model in some iranian academic research centers (arc) based on km critical success factors. general km critical success factors (csf) were identified through literature review. then the research procedure led to the identification of km critical success factors in iranian arcs including 16 different factors. it was done through first stage su...

background and objectives: vaccination is the major strategy to protect nurses against infection with hepatitis b virus. however, some nurses do not produce sufficient amount of anti-hbsag antibody required for immunity against infection. chronic occupational stress has been proposed as a risk factor to humoral immunity. given that nursing staff is exposed to occupational stress risk, this stud...

the molecular basis of metastatic potential of human breast carcinoma cells can be useful information to determine the practical implications in the diagnosis, determining prognosis and treatment of breast cancer. the aim of this study was to identify predictors of aggressive biological behavior and metastatic potential in breast carcinoma among a number of intrinsic biomarkers of tumor cells. ...

involvement of genetic alterations in breast cancer, one of the most common types of female malignancie, has been well documented . among the possible alterations, mutations in several genes including p53 as an important prognostic factor, have been extensively studied. mutated p5 protein has longer half-life than the wild type protein that is detectable by immunohistochemistry (ihc). our study...

background: despite the fact that new criteria of antisocial personality disorder (aspd) in diagnostic and statistical manual of mental disorders-fi fth edition (dsm-5) were resulted from fi ve-factor model (ffm), there is a small amount of studies that investigate the relations between proposed personality traits and ffm. also, cross-cultural study in this field continuously would be needed.th...
