Abstract Background: Retinal G protein-coupled receptor (RGR), a photosensitive protein, serves retinal photoisomerase function under light condition in the human eyes. Recently, we found that RGR is highly expressed squamous cell carcinoma (SCC),which suggested photoreceptor may be associated with SCC tumorigenesis. However, cutaneous SCC, expression and of remain uncharacterized. Herein, perf...

Tetracyclines are frequently detected in water bodies due to their widespread use aquaculture and animal husbandry. A hydroponic experiment was conducted explore the phytotoxic effects of Vallisneria natans (Lour.) Hare exposed various concentrations chlortetracycline (CTC) oxytetracycline (OTC) (0, 0.1, 1, 10, 30, 50, 100 mg/L) for 7 days (7 D) 14 (14 D), respectively. The results showed that ...

Abstract Silicon (Si) has an important role in mitigating diverse biotic and abiotic stresses plants, mainly via the silicification of plant tissues. Environmental changes such as atmospheric CO 2 concentrations may affect grass Si which, turn, can alter herbivore performance. We recently demonstrated that pre‐industrial increased accumulation Brachypodium distachyon grass, yet patterns deposit...

The availability of good feeding on fish performance is needed to improve the poor aquaculture condition. study examines effects Saccharomyces cerevisiae supplementation growth, survival rate, and blood profile saline red tilapia in semi-intensive culture. Sixty (4.58 ± 0.09 g) were divided into five groups received standard feed with S. at different doses: (A-E) 0, 5, 10, 15, 20 g/kg feed. was...

Many genes from retinoid metabolism cause retinitis pigmentosa. Peropsin, an opsin-like protein with unknown function, is specifically expressed in apical retinal pigment epithelium microvilli. Since rhodopsin and RGR, another opsin-like protein, cause retinitis pigmentosa, we used D-HPLC to screen for the peropsin gene RRH in 331 patients (288 with retinitis pigmentosa and 82 with other retina...

The high consumer demand in Indonesia encourages catfish farmers to conduct an intensive culture. A low feed efficiency mainly occurs cultivating Sangkuriang resulting poor growth. This condition might be caused by lysine content, as is essential amino acid that the fish cannot synthesize. present study aimed investigate effect of supplementation on protein digestibility, efficiency, and growth...

The study was undertaken to evaluate the effect of foliar sulphur (S) nutrition through Ammonium Thiosulphate (ATS) under conservation management on growth, photosynthetic efficiency and productivity rainfed pearl millet in dryland ecologies New Delhi 2021 2022 crop years. established (ZTCRret) achieved significantly higher growth rate (CGR) relative (RGR) as a result improved photosynthesis te...

The trophy hunting industry in Tanzania plays a significant role wildlife conservation as well economic and community development. Trophy has been conducted Rungwa Game Reserve (RGR) for several decades; however, the opinions from local communities living adjacent to reserve are not documented. This study aimed assess awareness attitudes of Reserves toward hunting. Furthermore, assessed factors...
