Effect of omega-3 acid ethyl esters on left ventricular remodeling after acute myocardial infarction

In the past several decades, Omega-3 fatty acids (O3FA) primarily from fish oil have been reported to have many beneficial effects, either directly on the heart or through other effects that indirectly help the heart. However, when

Climate change threatens children’s health

The World Health Organisation has stated that climate change is a significant and emerging threat to public health, and changes the way we must look at protecting vulnerable populations. It is estimated globally that climate change is

Metal nanoparticles wire up nanowires for better battery materials

New materials are making advancements in higher power, longer life and faster charging batteries a reality. These improvements have been driven by the uptake in electric vehicles and a host of other applications that require long life

Acid Orange 7 photodegradation at Ni-foam/Sr1-x(La,Bi)xTiO3

Strontium titanate (SrTiO3) belongs to the perovskite family of compounds and is a very well-known oxide with high catalytic activity and high chemical and photochemical stabilities. In this research, we aimed to improve the SrTiO3 photocatalytic activity

Neuropetides and adipose-derived mesenchymal stromal cells improve peripheral nerve regeneration in animal model

Although autologous nerve grafting remains the gold standard for nerve gap repair, entubulation techniques with artificial nerve conduits are considered a promising approach to peripheral nerve reconstruction (Strauch, 2000). Advances in bioengineering have led to the creation

Conference series takes pleasure in inviting the scientific community across the globe to attend the 11th European Biosimilars Congress during April 26-27, 2018 at Rome, Italy with a motto to Explore Innovations in Biosimilars & Biologics. This

Greywater. Waste or treasure?

In the last years humanity is faced with the problem of water pollution, an issue that threatens people’s health and degrades the life quality. According to WHO 663 million people rely on sources of questionable quality and

Basmati aroma: what it means and how it accumulates in fragrant rice?

Rice plant growth comprises vegetative, reproductive, grain filling and maturity phases. In these phases availability of primary and secondary metabolites including volatile organic compounds (VOC’s) are greatly varied. Basmati rice aroma contains more than 100 volatile organic

Unraveling multiple checkpoints for accurate selection of initiator tRNA on ribosomes for translation initiation

Ribosomes comprise a large (50S) and a small (30S) subunits. To begin (initiate) protein synthesis, the two subunits associate on an mRNA (70S). Organisms possess two classes of tRNAs, the initiators (i-tRNA) and the elongators. The i-tRNA

Octreotide – a promising fight against chronic intestinal pseudo-obstruction

Chronic intestinal pseudo-obstruction (CIPO) is a rare disorder that affects the intestinal tract of children and adults. It is a chronic and devastating disease that has significant morbidity and mortality. CIPO is characterized by severe and disabling

Thermo-acoustofluidics: composition-based separation of vesicles

Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are membrane-enclosed entities actively released from cells into almost all types of bodily fluids such as blood and urine. Exosomes, i.e. small EVs with 40-100 nm in diameter, are particularly important since they serve

How rising minority income does (or does not) lead to residential integration in the US

本文探讨如何访问集成马嘶声borhoods changed for Asians, Hispanics, and African Americans from 1970 to 2010. Data come from the Decennial U.S. Census, with neighborhoods defined using census tracts, which are small geographic units

The evolutionarily conserved role of Sp1 in appendage morphogenesis

Despite millions of years of independent evolution, some aspects of vertebrate and arthropod development share striking similarities. For example the appendages of a mouse and of a fly, at the naked eye doesn’t seem to share too

Temporo-mandibular dysfunctions and injections

Temporo-mandibular joint (TMJ) dysfunction is a recurrent pathology and classical treatment only relieves some patients. Botulinum Toxin type A (BoNTA) injections, both intra-muscular and intra-articular, and intra-articular injections of sodium hyaluronate or hyaluronic acid (HA) are precious

The effect of motherhood and work on women’s time pressure

Deadlines, time pressure, stress, and hustle: Who has not experienced the mad rush of a hectic day? Time pressure ─ also referred to as time crunch, time squeeze, or time deprivation ─ is a widespread phenomenon in

World Congress on Embryology and In vitro Fertilization. Chicago, USA. November 2-3, 2017

World Congress on Embryology and In vitro Fertilization focuses on human embryology and aims to provide an up-to-date source of information on a variety of selected topics. The conference will be organized on the theme of Exploring

Host factors, the “Simon Says” for microbial biofilms

Microbes change their behavior, i.e., phenotype, in response to environmental clues. Since microbes, e.g. normal flora and pathogens evolved with their respective hosts, being able to recognize host-derived chemical signals provides a distinctive advantage. This is particularly

12th world Congress on Pharmaceutical Sciences and Innovations in Pharma Industry. London, UK. February, 26- 27, 2018

Following the tradition of successful Congresses held in several European countries, Dubai, Spain, Italy, India, South Africa and USA, the Organizing Committee of ConferenceSeries Ltd is pleased to invite all the participants across the globe to attend the 12th

Arabidopsis ACYL-COA-BINDING PROTEIN6: a lipid-binding protein in the phloem

Plants utilize long-distance transport systems via their vascular tissues. The xylem is used for water and mineral transport, while the phloem translocates various macromolecules. Although lipids have been detected in the phloem sap, their movement is not

Stolen innocence: the rapes of little girls during Jim Crow

During the period of legally sanctioned segregation in the U.S., known as the Jim Crow era(roughly 1865 to 1965), the public discussion of “rape” focused on assaults of white women. However, a much more common problem was
