Serological analysis of a recombinant lung cancer cDNA expression library with the autologous patient serum led to the isolation of 20 clones representing 12 different genes: 4 of these were known genes, and the other 8 were previously unknown genes. Of the four known genes, aldolase A (NY-LU-1), previously shown to be overexpressed in lung cancer, was most frequently isolated. The other three ...

Metribuzin is an herbicide widely used for weed control that has been identified as a groundwater pollutant. It contaminates the environment even when it is used according to the manufacturer's instructions. To reduce herbicide leaching and increase weed control, new controlled release formulations were developed by entrapping metribuzin within a sepiolite-gel-based matrix using two clay/herbic...

The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are a blueprint for improving the human life quality. Goal 16 (G16) is related to security, and it in line with Universal Declaration of Human Rights Preamble 1945 Constitution. To support implementation G16 achievement, Indonesian National Police (Polri) has made serious efforts provide sense safety community minimize crime rates. One that could be map ...

Research suggests a two factor structure for negative symptoms in patients with psychotic disorders: social amotivation (SA) and expressive deficits (ED). Applying this two-factor structure in clinical settings may provide valuable information with regard to outcomes and to target treatments. We aimed to investigate 1) whether the factor structure is also supported in chronically ill patients w...

Gel retardation studies and other experiments indicate that DNA sequences containing the d(GA4T4C)n motif are curved, whereas those of identical composition but with a reverse sequence polarity, the d(GT4A4C)n motif, are straight. Hydroxyl radical cleavage experiments show that d(GA4T4C)n shows a unique signature, whereas d(GT4A4C)n behaves normally. To explain these results at a molecular leve...

We have synthesized, separated, and purified approximately 10 mg of a deoxyundecanucleotide duplex containing a single centrally positioned covalent adduct between (+)-anti-benzo[a]pyrene (BP) diol epoxide and the exocyclic amino group of guanosine. Excellent proton NMR spectra are observed for the (+)-trans-anti-BP diol epoxide-N2-dG adduct positioned opposite dC and flanked by G.C pairs in th...

In rainfed areas, due to variable environmental factors, improving the yield stability of introduced cultivars along with increasing should be considered. The main aim this study is obtain high-yield wheat genotypes that are stable and adaptable cold climatic conditions in Iran. For purpose, 25 were evaluated a randomized complete blocks design three replications during cropping seasons (2013-2...

This study evaluated the influence of material combinations used in the resin coating technique (RCT) on the marginal adaptation of indirect restorations with gingival margins in enamel (EM) and cement (CM). Eighty third-molars were used. Two cavities were prepared in each tooth. The cavities were distributed into 16 groups. Cavities with EM were filled with the following material combinations:...
