soil affected by salt (nacl) is a major problem worldwide and in areas with potential agriculture; lands in many countries are not enough to support crop production. the development of salt tolerant cultivars would be enhanced by better understanding of the genetic control of tolerance to salt stress. a new cereal, tritipyrum, a range of amphiploids between triticum spp. and thinopyrum spp....

In this paper we present the convenient syntheses of seven new phenyl hydrazin derivatives 8 (a-h). For this purpose, acenaphtho [1,2-e]-1,2,4-triazine-9(8H)-thione (3) was prepared, starting from acenaphthylene-1, 2-dione (1) and thiosemicabazide in good yield. The reaction of (3) with benzyl chloride resulted to synthesis of 9-(benzylthio)-acenaphtho[1,2-e]-1,2,4-triazines (5) that reacted wi...

A new series of N-(5-Mercapto-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-yl)-2-phenylacetamide derivatives (3a-3j) were synthesized via an amidation reaction using EDC and HOBt in acetonitrile solvent at room temperature condition. Chemical structures were characterized by 1H NMR, IR and MS spectroscopic methods and related melting points were also determined. The anticancer activity was evaluated using MTT procedure ...

Two set of 2-aryl-5,6-dihydropyrrolo[2,1-a] isoquinolines were designed and synthesized to evaluate their biological activities as topoisomerase inhibitors. Cytotoxic activity of the synthesized compounds 4a-e and 7a-d was assessed against several human cancer cell lines, including MCF-7 (breast cancer cell), HepG2 (liver hepatocellular cells), A549 (adenocarcinomic human alveolar basal epithel...

Iran has 1260 km of coastline that borders the Persian Gulf and the Oman Sea in the northwest Indian Ocean. Marine algae are one of the natural resources in the marine ecosystem which produce a wide range of new secondary metabolites with various biological activities that play an important role in the pharmaceutical care. In this study the cytotoxic activity of 28 marine algae of Chabahar coas...

Background: Heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) is a cytoprotective and antiapoptotic enzyme, which has been involved in maintaining cellular homeostasis, and plays an important protective role by modulating oxidative injury. Up-regulation of (HO-1) has contributed to tumorogenicity of some cancers. In this study we investigated the expression pattern of the HO-1, in five different human-derived cancer cel...

the theoretical and experimental investigation on the thermo-mechanical properties of carbon nanotube (cnt) as reinforcer for oil and gas pipes has increasingly become a hot research area for many engineers and material scientists in recent years. this is mainly due to the advent of the new composite material systems that exhibit exotic material and mechanical properties as compared to the trad...
