A field trial to determine the effect of different dosages, Scheduling time plant growth regulators and defoliators on yield cotton under high density planting system was conducted at Regional Agricultural Research Station, Warangal during kharif-2022. The experiment consisted eleven treatments laid out in Randomized Block Design with three replications. treatment details were T1: Application M...

Low threshold Ca2+ currents mediated by T-type channels underlie burst spike activities of relay neurons in the thalamus. We have previously reported that knock-out mice for T-type channels show an enhanced nociceptive response to visceral pain, accompanied by an increase in tonic spikes in the absence of burst spikes in thalamic relay neurons. These results raised a possibility that T-type cha...

the purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of additives, poly(ethylene glycol) (peg) 1450, poloxamer 407, polyvinyl alcohol (pva) and sodium chloride in order to improve physico-chemical characteristics, encapsulation efficiency and in vitro release of bovine serum albumin, form poly(d,l-lactic-co-glycolic acid) (plga) microparticles prepared by the w/o/w solvent evaporation method...

Selective activation of group I metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluRs) with (S)-3,5-dihydroxyphenylglycine (DHPG) in guinea pig hippocampal slices converts 275- to 475-ms picrotoxin-induced interictal bursts into persistent seizure-length discharges typically over 1 s in duration. Here we report that l-cysteine sulfinic acid (CSA), a sulfur-containing amino acid, prevented the induction of t...

Oxidants and neutrophils contribute to lung injury during influenza A virus (IAV) infection. Surfactant protein (SP)-D plays a pivotal role in restricting IAV replication and inflammation in the first several days after infection. Despite its potent anti-inflammatory effects in vivo, preincubation of IAV with SP-D in vitro strongly increases neutrophil respiratory burst responses to the virus. ...

This report investigates the comparative in vitro controlled release and transfection efficiencies of pDNA-lipofectamine complex (lipoplex) and pDNA-poly(ethylene imine) complex (polyplex), from a biodegradable polycaprolactone (PCL) film. The effect of molecular weight of gelatin used as a porogen on in vitro release and transfection efficiency was also studied. A sustained release profile was...

Several studies on place perception of prevocalic stop consonants have shown that the apparent perceptual weight of release burst and formant transitions depends on the vowel context: bursts carry higher perceptual weight in high front vowel contexts like /i/ than in low non-front vowel contexts like /a/, while the reverse holds for formant transitions. This finding is generally interpreted as ...

We show here that a mild sterile inflammation induced by the endotoxin lipopolysaccharide (LPS), in a neuron/astrocyte/microglial cortical network, modulates neuronal excitability and can initiate long-duration burst events resembling epileptiform seizures, a recognized feature of various central nervous neurodegenerative, neurological and acute systemic diseases associated with neuroinflammati...
