Lectin binding [concanavalin A, biotinylated ricinus communis agglutinin, and biotinylated succinylated wheat germ agglutinin (B-SWGA)] was used to detect the glycosylated proteins associated with a residual protein fraction [insoluble in 4% sodium dodecyl sulfate and termed the nuclear residual fraction (NRF)] or with nuclear matrix preparations from normal rat liver, azo dye (3'-MeDAB)-induce...

AIM The objective of this study was to evaluate the nutrient profile of labelled foods and also understand the application of two international nutrient profiling models of labelled foods and beverages. METHODS WXYfm and NRF 9.3 nutrient profiling models were used to evaluate 3,171 labelled foods and beverages of 38 food categories and 500 different brands. RESULTS According to the WXYfm mo...

NDG-4 is a predicted transmembrane acyltransferase protein that acts in the distribution of lipophilic factors. Consequently, ndg-4 mutants lay eggs with a pale appearance due to lack of yolk, and they are resistant to sterility caused by dietary supplementation with the long-chain omega-6 polyunsaturated fatty acid dihommogamma-linolenic acid (DGLA). Two other proteins, NRF-5 and NRF-6, a homo...

Adjuvant programmed death-ligand 1 blockade after concurrent chemoradiation (CCRT) for stage III NSCLC was found to significantly prolong progression free and overall survival1 at five-year follow-up of the PACIFIC phase 3 trial.2 Nevertheless, a significant proportion patients experience disease relapse factors underlying this phenomenon are not well understood. In issue Journal Thoracic Oncol...

Systematic Cadastral mapping in Nepal used to be carried out using local coordinates. Later National Reference Frame (NRF) and a map sheet layout is being improve the situation. Current trend of use GNSS establishing control points demands set transformation parameters. The coordinates NRF which are obtained by transforming results, does not give expected accuracy for large scale mapping. In ad...

In this study, it was investigated of the effect Polygonum cognatum Meissn. ethanol extract Bax, Bcl-2, Caspase-3, NF-kB and NRF-2/HO-1 pathways in streptozotocin induced diabetic rats. A total 24 healthy Spraque-Dawley male rats were randomly divided into four groups containing 6 per group as Control; Diabetes mellitus (DM); (PCE) DM+PCE. Experimental diabetes by a single dose 60 mg/kg/i.p Str...

objective(s): oxidative stress has been established as a key cause of alcohol-induced hepatotoxicity. licochalcone b, an extract of licorice root, has shown antioxidative properties. this study was to investigate the effects and mechanisms of licochalcone b in ethanol-induced hepatic injury in an in vitro study. materials and methods: an in vitro model of ethanol-induced cytotoxicity in brl cel...
