An organochloride, thiamothoxam is used commercially for controlling the agricultural pest. In the present study it was observed that at sub-lethal concentration (29.483 ppm) the GDH activity in the liver, kidney, gill and muscle of Ophiocephalus punctatus increased non-significantly from 24hrs to 96hrs of exposure. The maximum activity in all these organs was at 96 hrs. It has been concluded t...

By using the Gerasimov-Drell-Hearn (GDH) sum rule and an isobaric model of kaon photoproduction, we calculate contributions of kaon-hyperon final states to the magnetic moment of the proton and the neutron. We find that the contributions are small. The approximation of σTT ′ by σT clearly overestimates the value of the GDH integral. We find a smaller upper bound for the contributions of kaon-hy...

In this paper, the authors propose a new structured multisignature scheme that considers the signing order among co-signers. The proposed scheme can resolve signing structures of serial, parallel, and the mix of them. Moreover, the size and the verification of a structured multisignature is the same as those of an individual signature generated by any co-signer. Arithmetically, the proposed sch...

The role of amino acids in the regulation of insulin secretion in pancreatic beta-cells is highlighted in three forms of congenital hyperinsulinism (HI), namely gain-of-function mutations of glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH), loss-of-function mutations of ATP-dependent potassium channels, and a deficiency of short-chain 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase. Studies on disease mouse models of HI suggest ...

We examine the energy dependence of single-meson photoproduction as it contributes to the Gerasimov-Drell-Hearn (GDH) sum rule. For photon energies above approximately 1 GeV, through the full resonance region, this contribution dominates the proton sum rule integral. Over the same energy region, our single-pion contribution to the neutron sum rule also qualitatively follows a recent set of GDH ...

STUDY QUESTION Is the activity of sirtuin 3 (SIRT3) altered in granulosa and cumulus cells from young women with reduced ovarian reserve or women of advanced maternal age? SUMMARY ANSWER SIRT3 mRNA and active protein in granulosa and cumulus cells were decreased in women with reduced ovarian reserve and advanced maternal age. WHAT IS KNOWN ALREADY Young women with reduced ovarian reserve or...

Freshwater fish, Cyprinus carpio were exposed to acute dose of cypermethrin at 7.5 μg/L for 1, 3, 5, 7 and 9 days and sub-lethal concentrations (1.5 μg/L) for 1,7, 14, 21 and 28 days to determine the change in enzyme activity in three functionally different tissues viz., gill, liver and muscle. Cypermethrin induced alterations that are both time dependent and tissue-specific, with glutamate deh...

The influence of glutamate dehydrogenase activity on nitrogen regulation in Corynebacterium glutamicum was investigated. As shown by RNA hybridization experiments deletion of the gdh gene results in a rearrangement of nitrogen metabolism. Even when sufficiently supplied with nitrogen sources, a gdh deletion strain showed the typical nitrogen starvation response of C. glutamicum. These changes i...

An ecological footprint is an accounting tool that reports the balance between resource supply and demand to assess environmental sustainability. Among many available indicators of social progress, happiness reflects how a person feels about their quality life. We combined these two approaches efficiency performance in low-income community Felicidade, São Paulo, Brazil, 2019. assessed gross dom...
