Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD) is an amino acid sequence in fibrinogen recognized by platelet glycoprotein (GP) lIb/IlIa. Recently, it was found that RGD peptide binding to GPIIb/IIIa leads to conformational changes in the complex that are associated with the acquisition of high-affinity fibrinogen-binding function. In this study, we found that tetrafibricin, a novel non-peptidic GPIIb/IIIa antagonist, indu...

We study the five dimensional SU(3)c × SU(3)L × U(1)X gauge theory (3-3-1 Model) in which the gauge symmetry is broken down through orbifold compactification to four dimensions. The new model has several distinguishing features compared to the usual four dimensional model. We develop the formalism, and give expressions for the gauge boson masses, mixings and their couplings to the fermions. Phe...

The distribution of some heavy metals in three different organs of mullet, Liza abu, and catfish, Silurus triostegus, from Atatürk Dam Lake located on Euphrates (Turkey) was studied. Co and Mo concentrations were below limits of detection in all fish organs, whereas Ni was also below limits in organs of mullet. The metal accumulation in the liver and gill of L. abu and S. triostegus was found t...

[1] A solute mass-balance study of ground water of the 3000 km coastal sabkhat (salt flats) of the Emirate of Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates, documents an annual bromide loss of approximately 255 metric tons (0.0032 Gmoles), or 85 kg/km. This value is an order of magnitude greater than previously published direct measurements from the atmosphere over an evaporative environment of a salar in Bo...

This study demonstrated the potentiality of the use of remote sensing and geospatial techniques for urban climate analysis with a case study of Abu Dhabi city area. A first analysis assessed the variation of Land Surface Temperature (LST) at different spatial scales its relationship with land cover, Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI), and percentage of Impervious Surface Area (ISA) h...

Structurally, the sacrum-coccyx provides the dual roles of serving as the base of the spinal column while also forming part of the pelvic ring. Physiological movement control of the pelvis and the spine are functionally interdependent. In particular, intra-pelvic control, (that between the ilia and sacrum/coccyx in support and control of the forces and small movements within the pelvic ring) is...
