Bisphenol A (BPA) is one of the most widely used chemicals in the plastic industry, which enter the human body through occupational and food contact. In this study, the protein changes in rat cerebral cortex was evaluate in order to evaluate the neurotoxicity of BPA. 24 adult male rats were randomly selected and divided into four groups (n=6) and each group respectively received 0, 0.5, 5 and 5...

background: recent research on several dna fragments covering open reading frames (orf) 1-37 shows a new genetic marker in orf 6 which is specific for differentiating wild-type varicella-zoster virus (vzv) strains from oka varicella vaccine strain. on the other hand, herpes simplex virus (hsv) genome analysis by restriction enzymes is used to differentiate types one and two of the virus and eve...

triple negative breast cancers (tnbcs) are associated with aggressive course, higher rates of visceral and central nervous system metastases and lower survival rate than hormone receptor positive. once metastasis has occurred, a median survival was approximately one year. currently, chemotherapy in tnbc is similar to other her2- negative breast cancers but in the near future, it will revolution...

background: the b-cell defect in x-linked agammaglobulinemia (xla) is caused by mutations in the gene for bruton's tyrosine kinase (btk). btk mutations result in deficient expression of btk protein in peripheral blood monocytes. methods: using the anti-btk monoclonal antibody (48-2h), a flow cytometric analysis of intra cytoplasmic btk protein expression in monocytes was performed to ident...

Phellodendrine is a Phellodendri Cortex-derived isoquinoline alkaloids, has been shown to have various activities, especially hypoglycemic effect in mice, predicting its medicinal value on diabetes mellitus. To further understand the pharmacological of phellodendrine mellitus, network techniques used elaborate involved mechanisms. 84 common target molecules were screened, based chemical structu...

adenylate kinases (adk) are ubiquitous enzymes that contribute to the homeostasis of adeninenucleotides in living cells. in this study, the cloning of a cdna encoding an adenylate kinase from the filariaonchocerca volvulus has been described. using pcr technique, a 281 bp cdna fragment encoding part ofan adenylate kinase was isolated from an o. volvulus cdna library. use of this fragment as a p...

In this study, we investigated the ability of curcumin alone or in combination with GLUT1 siRNA to radiosensitize laryngeal carcinoma (LC) through induction autophagy. Protein levels tumour tissues and LC cells were measured by immunohistochemistry Western blotting. vitro, cell proliferation, colony formation assays, death autophagy detected. A nude mouse xenograft model was established injecti...

Background: Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most important neurogenerative disorder with progressive dementia as its main clinical manifestation. The microRNAs (miRNAs) are identified crucial modulators in AD progression. Nevertheless, biological potential of miR-21 obscure. Hence, this study aimed to evaluate possible role pathogenesis via phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate 3-kinase (PI3K)/...
