β-diversity has been under continuous debate, with a current need to better understand the way in which new wave of measures work. We assessed results 12 incidence-based indices. Our gradual species composition overlap between paired assemblages considering progressive differences richness show following: (i) four indices (β-2, β-3, β-3.s, and βr) should be used cautiously given that no shared ...

The influence of the ultrafine-grained structure formed by equal-channel angular pressing via “Conform” scheme on fatigue behavior metastable β-alloy Ti-15Mo has been studied. It is shown that alloy with a two-phase achieved best mechanical properties and enhanced endurance limit (up to 710 MPa basis 107 cycles) due total contribution grain boundary, dislocation, phase strengthening mechanisms....

Type 2 diabetes is characterized by pancreatic β-cell dysfunction and insulin resistance, and the number of patients has markedly increased worldwide. In the diabetic state, hyperglycemia per se and subsequent induction of oxidative stress decrease insulin biosynthesis and secretion, leading to the aggravation of Type 2 diabetes. In addition, there is substantial reduction in expression and/or ...

Cotranslational N-glycosylation can accelerate protein folding, slow protein unfolding, and increase protein stability, but the molecular basis for these energetic effects is incompletely understood. N-glycosylation of proteins at naïve sites could be a useful strategy for stabilizing proteins in therapeutic and research applications, but without engineering guidelines, often results in unpredi...

The present paper deals with the various q-Genocchi numbers and polynomials. We define a new type ofmultiple generalized q-Genocchi numbers and polynomials withweight α andweakweight β by applying the method of p-adic q-integral. We will find a link between their numbers and polynomials with weight α and weak weight β. Also we will obtain the interesting properties of their numbers and polynomi...

Susceptibility to photoimmune suppression and photocarcinogenesis is greater in male than female humans mice exacerbated estrogen receptor-beta knockout (ER-β−/−) mice. We previously reported that the active vitamin D hormone, 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 (1,25(OH)2D), applied topically protects against ultraviolet radiation (UV) induction of cutaneous cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers (CPDs) contact h...

BACKGROUND Prevention and control of thalassemia requires simple, rapid, and accurate screening tests for carrier couples who are at risk of conceiving fetuses with severe thalassemia. METHODS Single-tube multiplex real-time PCR with SYBR Green1 and high-resolution melting (HRM) analysis were used for the identification of α-thalassemia-1 Southeast Asian (SEA) and Thai type deletions and β-th...

The efficient asymmetric synthesis of new chiral γ-chloro-α,β-diamino acid derivatives via highly diastereoselective Mannich-type reactions of N-(diphenylmethylene) glycine esters across a chiral α-chloro-N-p-toluenesulfinylimine was developed. The influence of the base, LDA or LiHMDS, used for the formation of the glycine enolates, was of great importance for the anti-/syn-diastereoselectivity...
