In this study, the effects of different light regimes on the reproductive activity of a typical Indo- Pacific coral reef rabbitfish, Siganus sutor, were evaluated. Forty- five adult fish were exposed to nine different photoperiod (8L: 16D, 12L: 12D, 16L: 8D) and light intensity (1000, 2000, 3000 lux) combinations with three replicates and five other fishes reared under indoor light condition (C...

We present Nitro, a high-performance in-memory key-value storage engine used in Couchbase 4.5 Global Secondary Indexes. The Nitro storage engine is well suited for the recent hardware trends like large amounts of memory and many CPU cores. The storage engine leverages latch-free data structures and tries to achieve linear scalability for the index read-write operations. The Nitro storage engine...

The present study was carried out from December 2007, during which to November 2008 more than 210 fish (Barbus barbulus) were caught and measured, including, 57 males, 64 females 89 immature fishes. Maximum minimum total lengths 885 mm respectively. weight 8460 g 99 length-weight relationship Y=0.00002 L2.90 (n=57, R2=0.85) for Y=0.000002 L3.22 (n=64, R2=0.87) Y=0.00005 L2.96 (n=210, R2 =0.90) ...

abstract relation between sexual maturity and levels of two main steroid hormones in gonads, 17- estradiol (e2) and testosterone (t) were studied by using histological and radioimmunoassay in female kutum rutilus frisii kutum during spawning season of the southern caspian sea. the study was carried out from february to may 2008 using 105 migrated fish specimens catched from the river sefid-rood...

As high-risk neuroblastoma (NB) has a poor prognosis, new therapeutic modalities are needed. We therefore investigated the susceptibility of NB cells to γ-secretase inhibitor I (GSI-I). NOTCH signaling activity, the cellular effects of GSI-I and its mechanisms of cytotoxicity were evaluated in NB cells in vitro and in vivo. The results show that NOTCH signaling is relevant for human NB cells. O...

The Arabian carpet shark, Chiloscyllium arabicum is endemic to the Gulf and northern Sea. aim of this work study reproduction maturity species. A total 87 males 139 females, including 19 egg-bearing individuals collected from bottom set longline fisheries in Saudi waters between October 2017 February 2019, were examined. size at 50% was estimated as 62.3 62.5 cm length (TL) for respectively. Ch...

T helper 17 (Th17) cells play an important role in the pathogenesis of allergic asthma. Th17 cell differentiation requires Notch signaling. γ-Secretase inhibitor (GSI) blocks Notch signaling; thus, it may be considered as a potential treatment for allergic asthma. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of GSI on Th17 cell differentiation in a mouse model of allergic asthma. OVA was us...

This paper presents a framework for GSI to integrate security components from the viewpoint of connection. To enhance security and security of virtual organization, A multi-homed architecture model is given, which employs a mechanism based on modified SOCKSv5 to support the resource utilization for GSI itself. The framework and the modified mechanism is independently. With the mechanism, the GS...

INTRODUCTION Ovarian cancer (OvCa) is the most lethal gynecologic malignancy in the United States because of chemoresistant recurrent disease. Our objective was to investigate the efficacy of inhibiting the Notch pathway with a γ-secretase inhibitor (GSI) in an OvCa patient-derived xenograft model as a single agent therapy and in combination with standard chemotherapy. METHODS Immunocompromis...

A total of 48 female spirlins Alburnoides sp. from the Kesselian stream (South Caspian Sea basin, northern Iran) were examined during a period from July 2008 to June 2009 to obtain data on fecundity, and to determine the spawning season of this carp. The mean absolute fecundity of females spirlin was 1722.92 (653.88) eggs. The fecundity has positive correlation with the size of the female. The...
