To obtain a more comprehensive activity understanding for crowded scene, in this paper, we propose new problem of panoramic human recognition (PAR), which aims to simultaneously achieve the individual actions, social group activities, and global activities. This is challenging yet practical real-world applications. track problem, develop novel hierarchical graph neural network progressively rep...

background and objectives: bordetella species colonize the respiratory tract of mammals and thereby cause the whooping cough. most of the species produce adenylate cyclase - a toxin ( hemolysin ) responsible for increasing intracellular cyclic amp (camp) levels in mammalian neutrophils and macrophages and as a consequence their phagocytic function get impaired . this study was carried out to is...

The effect of epinephrine on phosphatidate phosphohydrolase (PAP) activity of isolated human hepatocytes was studied. Epineprine inhibited the enzyme activity progressively at concentrations above 0.1 µM, reaching a maximum inhibition of 64.5% at 100 µM concentration. Inclusion of alprenolol, a β-receptor blocker, in the incubation mixture abolished the inhibitory effect of epinephrine on P...

objective: gelatinases are a large group of proteolytic enzymes that belong to the matrix metalloproteinases (mmps). mmps are a broad family of peptidases, which proteolyse the extracellular matrix and have an important role in inflammation. verapamil is a calcium channel blocker extensively used in the treatment of numerous cardiovascular diseases such as arrhythmia and hypertension. the anti-...

Prior to committing personnel to investigate a building or suspicious site such as a cave, it is imperative to determine the importance and current danger of the site. To this end, sensors on a robotic platform can interrogate the site prior to sending in personnel. This paper investigates methods to exploit multiple sensor modalities in order to automatically 1) detect human presence, and 2) d...

Background: To study methaemoglobin content and NADH-methaemoglobin reductase activity of three human erythrocyte genotypes (HbAA, HbAS and HbSS).Materials and Methods: Studies to ascertain methaemoglobin concentration and level of NADH-methaemoglobin reductase activity of three human erythrocyte genotypes (HbAA, HbAS and HbSS) were carried out in forty-three (43) healthy male participants of c...

lipoxygenase(lox) catalyzes irreversible transfer of oxygen molecule to arachidonic and linoleic acid to produce 13 hydroproxy octadecadienoic acid. recent studies showed the involvement of lipoxygenase products, leukotrienes, in inflammations and lipoxygenase pathways acts as mediators of early inflammatory events in atherosclerosis. the aim of the present study was purification and characteri...
