objective: annona senegalenesis pers is a sprawling shrub belonging to the family annonaceae, and is mainly used in ethnomedicine. the use of decoction of a. senegalenesis is very prominent in the management of various conditions ranging from bacterial infection, worm infestation,  snake bites, pyrexia and febrile convulsion in folk medicine. methods: the investigation on anticonvulsant activit...

AIM Levels of ubiquitin carboxyl-terminal hydrolase L1 (UCHL1) are robustly increased in spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) patient fibroblasts and mouse models. We therefore wanted to establish whether changes in UCHL1 contribute directly to disease pathogenesis, and to assess whether pharmacological inhibition of UCHL1 represents a viable therapeutic option for SMA. METHODS SMA mice and control ...

At the molecular level, it is acknowledged that a TCM formula is often a complex system, which challenges researchers to fully understand its underlying pharmacological action. However, module detection technique developed from complex network provides new insight into systematic investigation of the mode of action of a TCM formula from the molecule perspective. We here proposed a computational...

Experimental animal models have made it possible to study some of the biological, biochemical, and pharmacological parameters involved in the use of radiolabeled monoclonal antibody for therapy and detection. Although such models are less appropriate for studies of dosimetry and the host's immune response to the monoclonal antibody, some general principles have been derived from the various mod...

The aim of the study was to create a patient-derived xenograft (PDX) model human colorectal cancer and determine its histologic molecular characteristics, such as status KRAS , NRAS BRAF genes presence microsatellite instability. Materials methods. First generation models in vivo were created using tumors from patients with (n = 4) immunodeficient Balb/c Nude mice 20); second, third, fourth sam...
