In the laboratory, an acaricide-susceptible strain of citrus red mite, Panonychus citri (McGregor) (LS-FJ), was used to screen for resistance spirotetramat. A spirotetramat-resistant (ST-NK) obtained after continuous selections through 15 selection cycles (45 generations) exhibited 1668.4-fold greater when compared parent generation. Instability spirotetramat in mites observed during 11 months ...

Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) play an important role in innate immunity against pathogenic infections. AMPs exterminate bacteria by disrupting cell membranes or inhibiting intracellular molecules. NK-2, first identified pigs and derived from NK-lysin, has antimicrobial effects parasites. In this study, chimeric (cpNK) of chicken pig NK-2 cpNK-derived (cpNK-a1 cpNK-a2) were synthesized, their va...

background: mature t/ nk-cell neoplasms are a rare group of disorders and their presentation as leukemia is even rarer. most of the previous studies have focused on mature b-cell lineage leukemias and there is a paucity of data on mature t/nk-cell lineage leukemias. we, therefore, planned this study to analyze their spectrum, frequency, morphology and immunophenotypic features. methods: all cas...

hematopoietic cord blood (cb) stem cell transplantation has more advantages to other cell sources because of lower graft versus host disease (gvhd). interleukin-15(il-15) is an immunoregulatory cytokine, known to enhance cytolytic function of cord natural killer (nk) cells. the aim of this study was to investigate the effect of il-15 on nk cytotoxicity simultaneously in different cell death sta...

the number and function of human natural killer (nk) cells are generally assessed to monitor the baseline of immune function, the effect of treatment, the progress of malignancy or metastases and diseases. nk cells recognise and kill target cells in the absence of prior sensitisation and are able to defend the host from infection or prevent the progression of a disease. human nk cells express c...

the aim of this paper is a) if σak2 < ∞ then σak rk(x) is in bmo that{rk(x)} is rademacher system. b) p1k=1 ak!nk (x) 2 bmo; 2k  nk < 2k+1that f!n(x)g is walsh system. c) if jakj < 1k then p1k=1 ak!k(x) 2 bmo.
