Background: Androgen receptor (AR) plays a critical role in prostate cancer and male sexual differentiation.Mechanisms by which AR acts and regulations of AR nucleocytoplasmic shuttling are not understood well. Materials and Methods: Degenerate PCR and RACE Cloning of AR Gene; Phylogenetic Analysis and Molecular Modeling;Real-time Fluorescent Quantitative RT-PCR; Northern Blot Hybridization;In ...

the growth rate and uniformity of carbon nano tubes (cnts) based on chemical vapor deposition (cvd) technique is investigated by using a numerical model. in this reactor, inlet gas mixture, including xylene as carbon source and mixture of argon and hydrogen as  carrier gas enters into a horizontal cvd reactor at atmospheric pressure. based on the gas phase and surface reactions, released carbon...

background and objective: prostate cancer is a prevalent disease around the world. the prostatic specific antigen (psa) test has recently proved itself as a useful method for the diagnosis and examination of patients with prostatic cancer. the objective of this study was to compare the stability of free psa and total psa in different storage settings. materials and methods: samples were obtaine...

The natural-abundance carbon-13 nuclear magnetic resonance spectra of the naturally occuring pyrimidine and purine nucleosides have been determined and completely analyzed. The carbon-13 chemical shifts obtained provide information on the electronic structure and qualitatively at least correlate well with the known chemical reactivity of these molecules. The carbon-13 shifts are in general far ...

The synthesis and spectroscopic characterizations of size-controlled Cu nanoparticles forming self-assembled 2D superlattices with hexagonal packing are described. The scanning electron microscopy (SEM), nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA), and electron spectroscopy for chemical analysis (ESCA) techniques were used to characterize the octanethiol-protected coppe...
