conclusions: we determined a significant higher frequency of protein s deficiency in patients with rpl compared with controls. but the frequency of protein c deficiency and the frequency of two common thrombophilic mutations (factor v leiden and prothrombin g20210a), were not significantly different between patients with recurrent miscarriage and healthy women. results: the mean functional acti...

studies were undertaken to evaluate content of igg, igm, c3, c4, ch50 and proteines of sera from 53 drug addicts by immunological methods. results shows an increase of igg and no significant variatrion in the level of other ig(s). in the same time we have seen an augmentation of gamma globuline in the protein electrophoresis pattern. the level of c3 and c4 of complement component rest unchanged.

A general single-step approach is introduced for the green fabrication of hybrid biosensors from water dispersion. The resulting device integrates semiconducting properties a carbon nanotube (CNT) and functionality protein. In initial aqueous phase, protein (viz., lysozyme [LZ]) disperses (6,5)CNT. Drop-casting dispersion on test pattern (a silicon wafer with interdigitated Au source drain elec...

conclusions four major dietary patterns were identified in the present studied population that can be used to provide tangible dietary advice for the elderly. results four major dietary patterns were identified in the studied population: 1) healthy pattern, characterized by a higher intake of vegetables, tomato and tomato sauce, vegetable oil, olive, and fruits; 2) unhealthy pattern, characteri...

with the aim of the secretion of human granulocyte macrophage-colony stimulating factor (hgm-csf) in escherichia coli, hgm-csf cdna was fused in-frame next to the signal sequence of st toxin (st-i) of exteroxigenic e. coli, containing 53 or 19 amino acids of signal peptide. the fused stsig::hgm-csf coding fragments were inserted into a t7-based expression plasmid. the recombinant plasmids were ...

Background: The induction of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) expression in the hippocampus has shown to play a role in the beneficial effects of resveratrol (RSV) on the learning and memory. The BDNF gene has a complicated structure with eight 5’ noncoding exons (I-IXa), each of which can splice to a common coding exon (IX) to form a functional transcript. Estrogens increase levels of ...

The erythrocyte membrane protein pattern of patients with megaloblastic anemia was determined by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in sodium dodecyl sulfate. In severe megaloblastic anemia, secondary either to folic acid or vitamin B12 deficiency, the erythrocyte membrane protein pattern was grossly abnormal, lacking bands 1, 2 (spectrin), and 3 and having several diffuse, faster migrating ban...

objective(s) leishmania can lead to a broad spectrum of diseases, collectively known as leishmaniasis. the a2 gene/ protein family could be one of the most eligible candidate factors of virulence in visceral leishmaniasis (vl). the previous results confirmed that in leishmania infantum, several a2 proteins are abundantly expressed by the amastigote, but not the promastigote stage. as there are ...
