objective: to determine the incidence of deep vein thrombosis (dvt) in patients undergoing spinal surgeries receiving prophylactic doses of deltaparin in a single center in central iran. method: this cross-sectional study was conducted in shariatee hospital of isfahan during a 12-month period. we included all the patients undergoing elective spinal surgeries in our center during the study perio...

human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (hiv-1) protease inhibitors comprise an important class of drugs used in hiv treatments. however, mutations of protease genes accelerated by low fidelity of reverse transcriptase yield drug resistant mutants of reduced affinities for the inhibitors. this problem is considered to be a serious barrier against hiv treatment for the foreseeable future. in this st...

Rats were injected with [125I]iodoinsulin labeled at either the A14 or B26 tyrosine, and the animals were killed and livers subcellularly fractionated to yield light (early or neutral) endosomes and heavy (late or acidic) endosomes. 125I-Labeled material was extracted from endosomes and analyzed by Sephadex G-50 filtration and high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Radiolabeled material...

  Background: Low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) is used for the treatment and prevention of coagulative disorders. Few patients receiving therapeutic doses of LMWH develop major hemorrhage. Currently there are few reports in the literature on acute overdose on adults.  In this study, clinical profile, treatment and outcome of 21 patients who acutely overdosed enoxaparin are described. Method...

BACKGROUND The two-component NS2B-NS3 proteases of West Nile and dengue viruses are essential for viral replication and established targets for drug development. In all crystal structures of the proteases to date, the NS2B cofactor is located far from the substrate binding site (open conformation) in the absence of inhibitor and lining the substrate binding site (closed conformation) in the pre...
