A large number of studies have demonstrated that the nucleus accumbens (NAC) is a critical site in the neuronal circuits controlling reward responses, motivation, and mood, but the neuronal cell type(s) underlying these processes are not yet known. Identification of the neuronal cell types that regulate depression-like states will guide us in understanding the biological basis of mood and its r...

INTRODUCTION Decades of research has helped to increase our knowledge of dental caries and reduce its prevalence. However, according to World Oral Health report, dental caries still remains a major dental disease. Fluoride therapy has been utilised in a big way to halt caries progression, but has been met with limitations. This has paved the way for the development of newer preventive agents th...

M(atrix) theory defines light-front description of M-theory boosted along positive direction of eleventh, M-coordinate. Rank of M(atrix) gauge group is directly related to M-momentum P11 = N/R11 or, equivalently, to total number of D0-partons. Alternatively, M-theory may be boosted along opposite direction of M-coordinate, for which the theory consists only of anti-D0 partons. In M(atrix) theor...

Abstract. Validation of remote sensing retrievals aerosol microphysical and optical properties requires in situ measurements the same properties. We present here an improved imaging nephelometer for measuring directionality polarization light (i.e., polarimetry) scattered at two wavelengths (405 660 nm) with high temporal resolution. The instrument was designed airborne deployment is capable gr...

t(8;22)(p11;q11) is a rare but recurrent genetic alteration in various hematological disorders. Patients with t(8;22)(p11;q11) may be misdiagnosed with chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML), due to the similar clinical features. Thus, the current study presents a patient with t(8;22)(p11;q11) who was previously misdiagnosed with CML in the chronic phase. The current patient was a 26-year-old woman...

Phytate is the major storage form of organic phosphorus in soils and plant seeds, and phosphorus (P) in this form is unavailable to plants or monogastric animals. In the present study, the phytase genes phyA and appA were introduced into Brassica napus cv Westar with a signal peptide sequence and CaMV 35S promoter, respectively. Three independent transgenic lines, P3 and P11 from phyA and a18 f...
