This research was conducted to assess health, safety, and environmental risks of a gas power plant in southern Iran. In order to identify the subject risks of the power plant at operational phase a questionnaire was designed using the Delphi method. The questionnaires were put at the disposal of 99 electricity industry experts. Risk assessment was done using multicriteria decision-making methods such as technique for order of preference by similarity to ideal solution (TOPSIS), entropy, and Eigenvector technique. Following prioritization of risks at each power plant unit, top-priority risks were determined by one-way ANOVA. The obtained results indicated that the risk of working with medium voltage boards with a weight of 0.879 at the power plant's Electricity Unit is the most important safety and health risk in the studied power plant while risk of servicing the unit with fuel of gas weighting 0.807 and delivery of gas fuel with weight of 0.630 in the Exploiting Unit and work on liquid fuel clutch with weight of 0.603 in the Mechanical Unit are the most important environmental risks in the gas power plant. In conclusion, this study concludes that health, safety, and environmental risk assessment can be a structured and used as a systematic approach to plan for environmental protection and personnel health. 相似文献

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most common cancers globally. Despite recent advances in therapeutic approaches, this cancer continues to have a poor prognosis, particularly when diagnosed late. 5-Fluorouracil (5-FU) has been commonly prescribed for patients with CRC, but resistance to 5-FU is one of the main reasons for failure in the treatment of this condition. Recently, microRNAs (miRNAs) have been established as a means of modifying the signaling pathways involved in initiation and progression of CRC and their role as oncogene or tumor suppressor have been investigated in various studies. Moreover, miRNAs through various mechanisms play an important role in inducing tumor resistance or sensitivity to anticancer drugs. Detecting and targeting these mechanisms may be a new therapeutic approach. This review summarizes the current knowledge about the potential roles of miRNAs in 5-FU resistance, with particular emphasis on molecular mechanism involved. 相似文献

The competitive endogenous RNA (ceRNA) hypothesis suggests that a long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) can function as sinks for pools of microRNAs (miRNAs); thereby, in the presence of ceRNA, messenger RNAs (mRNAs) targeted by specific miRNAs can liberate and translate to protein. Maternally expressed gene 3 (MEG3) is a lncRNA, which its expression has been detected in various normal tissues, while it is lost or downregulated in human tumors. The MEG3 is an imprinted gene which, is methylated and suppressed by DNA methyltransferases (DNMTs) family. Also, miRNAs are involved in the regulation of MEG3 gene expression. Interestingly, the lncRNA MEG3 (lnc-MEG3), as a ceRNA affects various cell processes such as proliferation, apoptosis, and angiogenesis by sponging miRNAs. These miRNAs, in turn, regulate different mRNAs in different pathways. This review focuses on the interaction between lnc-MEG3 and experimentally validated miRNAs. In addition, the discussion supplemented by some data obtained from mirPath (v.3) and TarBase (v.8) databanks to provide more details about the pathways affected by this ceRNA. 相似文献

The engagement of natural killer cell immunoglobulin-like receptors (KIRs) with their target ligands, human leukocyte antigen (HLA) molecules, is a critical component of innate immunity. Structurally, KIRs typically have either two (D1-D2) or three (D0-D1-D2) extracellular immunoglobulin domains, with the D1 and D2 domain recognizing the α1 and α2 helices of HLA, respectively, whereas the D0 domain of the KIR3DLs binds a loop region flanking the α1 helix of the HLA molecule. KIR2DL4 is distinct from other KIRs (except KIR2DL5) in that it does not contain a D1 domain and instead has a D0-D2 arrangement. Functionally, KIR2DL4 is also atypical in that, unlike all other KIRs, KIR2DL4 has both activating and inhibitory signaling domains. Here, we determined the 2.8 Å crystal structure of the extracellular domains of KIR2DL4. Structurally, KIR2DL4 is reminiscent of other KIR2DL receptors, with the D0 and D2 adopting the C2-type immunoglobulin fold arranged with an acute elbow angle. However, KIR2DL4 self-associated via the D0 domain in a concentration-dependent manner and was observed as a tetramer in the crystal lattice by size exclusion chromatography, dynamic light scattering, analytical ultracentrifugation, and small angle x-ray scattering experiments. The assignment of residues in the D0 domain to forming the KIR2DL4 tetramer precludes an interaction with HLA akin to that observed for KIR3DL1. Accordingly, no interaction was observed to HLA by direct binding studies. Our data suggest that the unique functional properties of KIR2DL4 may be mediated by self-association of the receptor. 相似文献

Melittin, an amphipathic 26-residue peptide, is the main component of honey bee venom. Studies have been demonstrated that melittin has an inhibitory effect on proliferation of cancer cells. However, the precise mechanism of action is not completely understood. In the present study we have shown that purified melittin from Iranian honey bee venom shows anti-cancer effects on human cervical cancer cell line through induction of apoptosis. The venom was collected from Iranian honey bee (Apis mellifera meda) and melittin isolated using reversed phase HPLC. Biological activity of melittin was analyzed by hemolytic test on human red blood cells. In order to investigate whether melittin inhibits proliferation of cervical cancer cells, the viability of the melittin treated HeLa cell line was measured via MTT assay. Finally, cell death analysis was performed using Propidum iodide and Annexin V-FITC dual staining. The results showed that the half hemolytic concentration (HD50) induced by mellitin was 0.5 µg/ml in free FBS solution. IC50 obtained after 12 h at 1.8 µg/ml by MTT assay. According to flow cytometric analysis, melittin induced apoptosis at concentrations more than 1 µg/ml. These results suggest that melittin induces apoptotic cell death in cervical cancerous cells as observed by flow cytometric assay. It is concluded that melittin could be regarded as a potential candidate in future studies to discovery of new anticancer agents. 相似文献

Tertiary‐relict Hyrcanian (Caspian) forest along the shores of the southern Caspian Sea is a center of biodiversity. Still, there is little information on plant diversity patterns in this area. This study evaluated plant diversity, variation in life forms, and geographical distribution of the zonal vegetation types and their relationships with environmental variables, in the educational and experimental forest of Kheyrudkenar, an important protected area in the central Hyrcanian forest of northern Iran. For this purpose, 226 vegetation plots of 400 m2 were laid out along two altitudinal transects from the lowlands (100 m a.s.l.) to the timberline (2000 m a.s.l.). Four vegetation types were identified using modified TWINSPAN, indirect and direct gradient analyses. Species‐related (species diversity indices, life form and phytogeographical elements) and environmental variables (climate, topographic and soil variables) were calculated and subjected to one‐way ANOVA among the vegetation types. Both constrained (CCA) and unconstrained (DCA) ordination analyses showed an almost identical variation of the floristic composition along their axes and demonstrated that there are two main gradients in the Hyrcanian forest. Elevation together with annual precipitation and mean annual temperature were the most important factors controlling the floristic composition in the area. Topographic features such as slope inclination and heat index were found to be important within an elevation zone/vegetation type. Soil physical and chemical properties were of secondary importance for the separation of the vegetation types. This knowledge will be useful for forest management and conservation practices in the Hyrcanian area with its distinct and unique flora and vegetation. 相似文献

Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most common form of dementia. Inhibition of BChE might be a useful therapeutic target for AD. A new series of Carbazole-Benzyl Pyridine derivatives were designed synthesized and evaluated as butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) inhibitors. In vitro assay revealed that all of the derivatives had selective and potent anti- BChE activities. 3-((9H-Carbazol-9-yl)methyl)-1-(4-chlorobenzyl)pyridin-1-ium chloride (compound 8f) had the most potent anti-BChE activity (IC50 value?=?0.073?μM), the highest BChE selectivity and mixed-type inhibition. Docking study revealed that 8f interacted with the peripheral site, the choline binding site, catalytic site and the acyl pocket of BChE. Physicochemical properties were accurate to Lipinski's rule. In addition, compound 8f demonstrated neuroprotective activity at 10?µM. This compound could also inhibit AChE-induced and self-induced Aβ peptide aggregation at concentration of 100?µM and 10?µM respectively. The in-vivo study showed that compound 8f in 10?mg/kg increased the time spent in target quadrant in the probe day and decreased mean training period scape latency in rats. All results suggest that new sets of potent selective inhibitors of BChE have a therapeutic potential for the treatment of AD. 相似文献
