Mixed convection peristaltic flow of Jeffrey nanofluid in a channel with compliant walls is addressed here. The present investigation includes the viscous dissipation, thermal radiation and Joule heating. Whole analysis is performed for velocity, thermal and concentration slip conditions. Related problems through long wavelength and low Reynolds number are examined for stream function, temperature and concentration. Impacts of thermal radiation, Hartman number, Brownian motion parameter, thermophoresis, Joule heating and slip parameters are explored in detail. Clearly temperature is a decreasing function of Hartman number and radiation parameter. 相似文献

Senile dementia of Lewy body type is characterized clinically by a relatively acute onset of fluctuating memory loss and confusion, frequently accompanied by visual hallucinations. Neurochemical analyses of temporal cortex has revealed a distinction between hallucinating and nonhallucinating patients in both cholinergic and monaminergic transmitter activities. In contrast with the cholinergic enzyme choline acetyltransferase, which was more extensively reduced in hallucinating individuals, serotonergic S2 receptor binding and both dopamine and serotonin metabolites were significantly decreased in nonhallucinating cases. These results suggest that an imbalance between monaminergic and cholinergic transmitters is involved in hallucinogenesis in the human brain. 相似文献

AbstractThe present study was conducted to assess the magnitude and health impacts of As in drinking water. Drinking water samples (n?=?60) were collected from twenty different sites of Shiekhupura District (Pakistan). Health risk assessment through average daily dose (ADD), hazard indices (HI), hazard quotient (HQ), carcinogenic risk (CR), and cancer indices (CI) for dermal and oral exposure were determined. Results revealed that As concentration ranged from 2 to 900?µg?L?1 in water samples, which was significantly greater than the safe limit of As (10?µg?L?1) in water. Health risk assessment of As showed that ADD (1.07E?02–9.85E?04), HQ (1.06E+01–9.85E+00), and CR (1.60E?02–9.85E?04) for oral exposure and ADD (1.03E?05–9.69E?06), HQ (1.19E?02–7.96E?03), and CR (1.11E?05–8.98E?05) for dermal exposure which were exceeded the toxic risk index value. Comparison of the two exposure pathways indicated that the oral exposure is much higher risk than the dermal contact. Both values of HI and CI were greater than WHO limit. It is concluded that residents of study area are at higher risk of As induced diseases and carcinogenicity. 相似文献

Abstract A number of viruses are known to infect chrysanthemum plants, however in the present study a previously unknown potyvirus was detected using techniques such as ELISA, RT-PCR and hybridization. The ELISA-positive samples were amplified using a potyvirus group-specific primer which gave an amplification of ~850 bp. The amplified product was cloned and sequenced, and shows 72 – 73% homology with known potyviruses that infect chrysanthemums such as Potato virus Y potyvirus, Soyabean mosaic virus and Turnip mosaic potyvirus when compared to the sequence available in the database. However, present potyvirus isolates show 93% homology with Chilli veinal mottle virus and Pepper vein banding virus. The results were further confirmed by Northern hybridization. This is the first report of a potyvirus similar to Chilli veinal mottle virus, and Pepper vein banding virus infecting chrysanthemums. 相似文献

Background
In recent years, microalgae (MA) have attracted much interest considering their possible therapeutic application. They contain active natural compounds or derivatives (extracts, pure or chemically modified compounds) that have increasing applications in the pharmaceutical industry.Methods
The present study aims to examine microalgae for new photosensitizers, with a potential to be used in the light-associated treatment of tumors. Semi-purified extracts of several microalgae strains were evaluated as photosensitizers for photodynamic therapy (PDT) applications. Four tumor cell lines (A549, LNCap, MCF-7, and MDA-MB 435) were used to assess 34 samples extracted by three methods: cellulase enzyme, lysozyme enzyme and ultra-sonication. The fluorescence measurements and the recorded images alongside the spectral intensities between 650–800 nm wavelengths provided characteristic features to some of the contents of the examined extracts.Results
Several microalgae constituents activated by blue light (BL), red light (RL) or both (in sequence) exhibited significant effects on the viability of the tumor cell lines, decreasing it as much as 95% for certain MA constituents. Majority of the MA constituents showed a higher phototoxicity after exposure to both blue and red lights than the photo-induced toxicity when exposed to a single light source. The viability of the tumor cells exhibited the dose dependent response with the MA constituents.Conclusion
The results clearly showed that MA constituents are potential photosensitizers that have a significant photo-damage effects on the tested cancer cells. 相似文献7.

OBJECTIVE: To determine whether tumor marker pi glutathione transferase (GST-pi) is expressed in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and other chronic liver diseases and to compare its expression with that of alpha-fetoprotein (AFP). STUDY DESIGN: Samples used were formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded liver tissues: normal (n = 3), chronic hepatitis B (n = 15), cirrhosis (n = 15) and HCC (n = 30). The expression of AFP and GST-pi was detected by using immunohistochemistry with the peroxidase-antiperoxidase method. AFP immunoreactivity was based on the cytoplasm of the hepatocytes, while GST-pi immunoreactivity was based on the nuclei of hepatocytes. RESULTS: In normal liver tissues, AFP was not expressed. However, there was strong staining of GST-pi in bile duct epithelium cells and weak staining in hepatocytes. Our results showed higher AFP immunoreactivity in cases of HCC (36.7%) as compared to cirrhosis (6.7%) and hepatitis B (0%), whereas GST-pi immunoreactivity was lower in cases of HCC (53.3%) as compared to cases of cirrhosis (100.0%) and hepatitis B (93.3%). Percent sensitivity of AFP determination for HCC was 36.7% as compared to 53.3% for GST-pi, thus making GST-pi a more sensitive marker for detection of HCC. This study showed a significant relationship between the intensity and percentage of cells stained in hepatitis B, cirrhosis and HCC for GST-pi immunoreactivity (P < .001, .001 and .05, respectively) but not for AFP (P > .05). Statistical analysis showed that there was no significant relationship between expression of AFP and GST-pi in cirrhosis and HCC cases. Hepatitis B virus infection in HCC cases showed a positive rate of 46.7%, with AFP staining positively in 42.9% of tissues and GST-pi staining positively in 57.1% of tissues. CONCLUSION: AFP is a diagnostic but rather insensitive tissue marker for HCC. However, the absence of AFP in benign chronic liver disease makes this marker useful in differentiating between HCC and other chronic liver diseases, whereas GST-pi can be used as a diagnostic marker for HCC as well as in detecting other chronic liver diseases. 相似文献

Phospholipase A(2) (PLA(2); EC 3.1.1.4) is a key enzyme involved in the production of proinflammatory mediators known as eicosanoids. The binding of the substrate to PLA(2) occurs through a well-formed hydrophobic channel. To determine the viability of PLA(2) as a target molecule for the structure-based drug design against inflammation, arthritis, and rheumatism, the crystal structure of the complex of PLA(2) with a known anti-inflammatory compound oxyphenbutazone (OPB), which has been determined at 1.6 A resolution. The structure has been refined to an R factor of 0.209. The structure contains 1 molecule each of PLA(2) and OPB with 2 sulfate ions and 111 water molecules. The binding studies using surface plasmon resonance show that OPB binds to PLA(2) with a dissociation constant of 6.4 x 10(-8) M. The structure determination has revealed the presence of an OPB molecule at the binding site of PLA(2). It fits well in the binding region, thus displaying a high level of complementarity. The structure also indicates that OPB works as a competitive inhibitor. A large number of hydrophobic interactions between the enzyme and the OPB molecule have been observed. The hydrophobic interactions involving residues Tyr(52) and Lys(69) with OPB are particularly noteworthy. Other residues of the hydrophobic channel such as Leu(3), Phe(5), Met(8), Ile(9), and Ala(18) are also interacting extensively with the inhibitor. The crystal structure clearly reveals that the binding of OPB to PLA(2) is specific in nature and possibly suggests that the basis of its anti-inflammatory effects may be due to its binding to PLA(2) as well. 相似文献
