05), whereas those of NK1/NK2 and NK1/NKr1 were significantly higher (P less then 0.01) than those in controls. The shift of endometrial NK cells to the NK2 phenotype was more pronounced when stimulated by semen than by PMA/ionomycin. However, a semen-induced shift to NK1 in women with unexplained RPL could induce miscarriage. Couple-specific…[Read more]

However, there is emerging evidence of its multisystemic nature, with associated extrapulmonary manifestations including gastrointestinal, cardiovascular, renal, and neurological findings. There is still limited understanding with regard to the extrapulmonary involvement in this disease. This review aims to put together the prevalence, proposed…[Read more]

An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) based on recombinant SAG1-related sequence 2 of Toxoplasma gondii (rTgSRS2) was developed to detect toxoplasmosis in cats. The specificity and sensitivity of rTgSRS2 ELISA were confirmed using a series of serum samples from T. gondii-experimentally infected mice. A total of 76 field samples from cats…[Read more]

0001); the median (IQR) MCCTT being 13.15 (10.24-17.25), 7.26 (6.18-9.17), and 7.24 (5.73-8.73) minutes for current, former and never smokers, respectively. Comparison between current smokers and former smokers was significantly different (p less then 0.0001). There was no significant difference between former and never smokers. The Saccharin test…[Read more]

Mandrills are large-bodied terrestrial forest primates living in particularly large social groups of several hundred individuals. Following these groups in the wild to assess differences in diet over time as well as among individuals is demanding. We here use isotope analyses in blood and hair obtained during repeated captures of 43 identified…[Read more]

Oxygen, the third most abundant element in the universe, plays a key role in the chemistry of condensed matter and biological systems. Here, we report evidence for a hitherto unexplored Auger transition in oxides, where a valence band electron fills a vacancy in the 2s state of oxygen, transferring sufficient energy to allow electron emission. We…[Read more]

In vivo experiments on artificially inoculated cherry fruits demonstrated that inactivation of fungal spores by the direct inhibitory effect of plasma extend their shelf life. Pre-treatment of fruits before inoculation improve the resistance to infections maybe by activating defense responses in plant tissues.Right colonic diverticulitis (RCD) and…[Read more]

The DLR assay results revealed that

enhanced Sox-4 expression by regulating miR-20b. LINC02783 can act as a sponge for miR-20b to inhibit Sox-4 expression.
