The antibacterial effect of whey protein-alginate coating incorporated with the lactoperoxidase system on chicken thigh meat
(2018)Nowadays, the environmental problems due to the use of synthetic films and packages have caused the production of natural edible coatings or films. The aim of this study was to produce an edible whey protein-alginate coating ... -
The ansa subclavia: A review of the literature
(2008)The ansa subclavia, subclavian loop, Vieussens' ansa or Vieussens' loop is a nerve cord that connects the middle cervical and inferior cervical sympathetic ganglia, forming a loop around the subclavian artery. The structure ... -
The adverse effects of thalassemia treatments including blood transfusion and main pharmacological therapies
(2013)Background: Beta-thalassemia major (?-TM) is a disorder which needs lifelong blood transfusions. Our aim was to examine the treatments side effects in thalassemic patients. Methods: 110 ?-TM patients attending two centers ... -
The Accuracy of Chest Computed Tomography Findings in Differentiation of Exudative from Transudative Pleural Effusion
(2015)Aim: There is a controversy in the usefulness of computed tomography (CT) in differentiating transudate or exudates. The aim of this study is to evaluate the utility of CT in characterizing pleural effusions. Material and ... -
The -514C/T polymorphism of hepatic lipase gene among iranian patients with coronary heart Disease
(2012)Background: The T allele of the hepatic lipase (HL) C-514T polymorphism was previously found to be associated with lower plasma HL activity. Here, we examined the association between this polymorphism and plasma HDL-cholesterol ... -
Tetanus neurotoxin HCC protein commits T cells to IFN-γ producing cells
(2016)A protective response against tetanus toxin and toxoid demands efficient specific T cell and B cell responses. Tetanus neurotoxin (TeNT), a 150 kDa polypeptide, is the main cause of tetanus disease. TeNT consists of two ... -
Th1 and Th2 cytokine gene expression in the peripheral blood of breast cancer patients compared to controls
(2014)Background: Cytokines produced by different subsets of T cells are the key mediators to adjust the quality of immune responses. Despite evidence of induction of an immune reaction against tumors such as breast cancer, not ... -
Testing global histogram equalization and unsharp mask algorithms for processing conventional chest X-ray images
(2011)Introduction: Imaging methods are progressing in a rapidly manner, but the problem which we, as the health providers always encounter with is the expensive costs of different devices and our limited budget to provide ... -
Testosterone replacement attenuates haloperidol-induced catalepsy in male rats
(2014)Purpose: Parkinson's disease (PD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease. Recent studies have indicated a higher prevalence of PD in male gender. Furthermore testosterone deficiency is more common among male parkinsonians ... -
Temporal and spatial trends of airborne asbestos fiber concentrations in the urban areas of Yazd, Iran
(2018)Asbestos fibers are serious health hazards that cause diseases such as lung fibrosis (asbestosis), lung cancer and mesothelioma of the pleura. Thus, the aim of this study was to measure the concentration of asbestos fibers ... -
Tepid blood versus cold crystalloid cardioplegia in cardiac protection

Temperature adaptation analysis of a psychrophilic mannanase through structural, functional and molecular dynamics simulation
(2018)The present paper reports structure prediction and analysis of a psychrophilic ?-mannanase from Glaciozyma antarctica PI12 yeast. A threading method was used for 3D structure prediction of the enzyme using the MODELLER ... -
Taste masking and characterization of chlorpheniramine maleate by using enteric polymers carrier system
(2013)Chlorpheniramine maleate is a widely used antihistaminic drug but it is very bitter and as yet no mouth dissolving/disintegrating taste-masked preparation that might be useful in pediatric and geriatric patients is available ... -
Targeting tumor microenvironment: The key role of immune system
(2012)In recent years, huge investigations on cancer progression and invasion have led to under-stand the pivotal role of tumor microenvironment. The current era of cancer therapy is based on the concept of simply targeting ... -
Targeting Stat3 and Smad7 to restore TGF-β cytostatic regulation of tumor cells in vitro and in vivo
(2013)Transforming Growth Factor-β (TGF-β) and Epidermal Growth Factor (EGF) signaling pathways are both independently implicated as key regulators in tumor formation and progression. Here, we report that the tumor-associated ... -
Targeting of crosstalk between tumor and tumor microenvironment by ?-D mannuronic acid (M2000) in murine breast cancer model
(2017)Metastasis is the main cause of death in breast cancer patients. Inflammatory processes following crosstalk between tumor cells and tumor microenvironment play an important role in progression and metastasis of cancer. ... -
Targeting and sensing of some cancer cells using folate bioreceptor functionalized nitrogen-doped graphene quantum dots
(2018)In recent years, study of folate receptor (FR) expression related to targeting, drug delivery and counting of tumoral cells have been followed. In this work, a fast and simple strategy was reported to determine the FR ... -
Targeted fluoromagnetic nanoparticles for imaging of breast cancer MCF-7 cells
(2013)Purpose: To achieve simultaneous imaging and therapy potentials, targeted fluoromagnetic nanoparticles were synthesized and examined in human breast cancer MCF-7 cells. Methods: Fe3O4 nanoparticles (NPs) were synthesized ... -
Target therapy of cancer: Implementation of monoclonal antibodies and nanobodies
(2009)In the past decades, the mainstay of systemic therapy for solid and haematological malignancies was chemotherapy; nevertheless this modality has the drawbacks such as drug resistance and eliciting sever cytotoxicity in the ...
