They are highly sensitive cells exhibiting variety of functional responses depending on the stimulus. Platelets remain hyperactive` in thrombotic disorders like coronary artery diseases, stroke and diabetes mellitus playing a critical role in their pathogenesis. Thus investigation of platelet behavior under different conditions is an important area of investigation to retain these cells in their resting state. Here we explore comparatively less studied areas of platelet biology and attempts to elucidate the signaling mechanism during platelet storage for transfusion purpose, physiologically important process of fibrin clot retraction and upon exposure to most commonly used nanoparticles nanosilver as a model of foreign stimuli. Nanosilver retards platelet activation indicating its potential to be promoted as an effective anti-thrombotic agent, or use as a stent material, where its anti-bacterial and anti-platelet properties could complement each other. This work is intended for diverse readership like biologists, material scientists, nanotechnologists, physicians as well as the pharma professionals. ····· 10361115700

Their medicinal role extends from simple antimicrobial action to anti- tumour properties.In view of the advancement in understanding the potential medicinal role of the plant lectins, a lectin from the leaves of Prunella vulgaris was isolated, purified, partially characterized and its antimicrobial activity evaluated. The lectin is specific for galactose and N-acetyl-galactosamine The molecular weight of the lectin as determined by SDS-PAGE was 32500 Da and that estimated from Sephadex G-100 gel filtration column was 65000 Da indicating that the purified lectin is a homodimer.

The protein fractions were administered intraperitoneally in mice. The antioxidative and antitumor activity were analysed by liver marker enzymes, enzymic and nonenzymic antioxidants, lipid peroxidation and histological status of liver. The assessment of immunomodulatory activity on humoral and cell mediated immunity were studied by lymphoid organ weight, total leukocyte count, neutrophil adhesion, phagocytic index, antibody titre and protein profile. The results of the study suggested the antioxidative efficacy by enhancing the antioxidative enzymic and non enzymic status, antilipidperoxidative role by inhibiting the lipid peroxide status, antitumorigenic against ELA tumor by increasing the ILS and immunostimulatory against the pyrogallol by the enhancement of the humoral and cell mediated immune responses by the administration of C. dactylonPF and T. catappaPF. Thus Cdpf and Tcpf could be exploited as an antioxidative, antitumorigenic and immunostimulatory agents to combat the oxidative degenerative diseases. ····· 10361115574

Blood electrolytes also show significant variations by heat stress leading to the metabolic acidosis. Increased blood flow towards skin is promoted by the release of vasodilator from the sweat glands. Heat may also cause lethal damages to vital organs like heart, liver and kidney etc. Industrialized countries face major hazards in the form of occupational diseases while developing countries are stressed by occupational injuries. Steel consumption in construction industry is used as a barometer to measure the economic growth of any country. Metals production is directly associated with heat starting from raw ore handling upto the finished products. The heat produced is radiated into the ambient environment and also to the persons handling the metals. This book will provide a great help to understand the relationship of heat stress and various blood parameters in the workers of iron and steel industry. ····· 10361115563
für 71.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray Reproduction is a physiologically costly process that consumes significant amounts of energy. The primary metabolic cue that modulates reproduction is the availability of oxidizable fuel. The organism`s metabolic status is transmitted to the brain through metabolic fuel detectors. There are many of these detectors and one of the most important fuel detectors is ghrelin. Ghrelin, a peptide hormone primarily secreted from the stomach and hypothalamus, has emerged as an orexigenic food intake controlling signal acting upon hypothalamic centers. Recently the potential reproductive role of ghrelin has received great attention. This work investigates the influence of food restriction on the secretion and gene expression of ghrelin and explores the effect of this hormone on the levels as well as gene expression of the reproductive hormones in adult male and female rats. So prolonged food restriction with a consequent excessive ghrelin could be one of the factors responsible for the suppression of reproductive axis in males and females. Thus ghrelin provides a link between energy homeostasis and reproductive capacity in adults. ····· 10361115523

During oxidative stress, reactions of oxidants with biological macromolecules can result in both direct damage and the formation of long-lived, reactive, hydroperoxides. The series of studies undertaken in this work focused on the early cellular events following generation of reactive singlet oxygen (1O2) and identified that long-lived protein hydroperoxides, a major product of protein oxidation, can play a significant role in cellular damage by selectively targeting both low-molecular mass and protein thiols. These findings are invaluable in providing an insight of the early molecular events of oxidative stress and a cornerstone for future research in developing a better strategy to prevent oxidative damage. ····· 10361115494

It is an effective modulator of inflammation and therefore an important medication for diseases of inflammatory origin. The active ingredients in Triphala possibly acted synergistically on key factors to control complex condition like inflammation. Data presented here suggested that Triphala and its ingredients reduced mucosal inflammation and restored the tissue architecture disrupted by induced IBD in rat model. Mechanism of action of Triphala was attributed to effieient scavenging of Nitric oxide induced at the cellular level. The oxidative damage as represented by lipid peroxides was effectively prevented by intervention of Triphala. This data supports usage of this simple yet effective formulation. In Ayurveda, Triphala is praised as medicine for bowel the current data supports this view and envisage an underlying synergy.

This was to be achieved by employing a biologically active ABA derivative, which served as both an affinity and a photoaffinity probe. It has been proven that this probe was recognized by known ABA-binding proteins. Subsequently the probe was used to isolate putative ABA binding proteins, and this led to the discovery of Rubisco as a new ABA binding protein, among several other potential candidates. The binding of ABA to Rubisco was confirmed by various techniques and it was found that in addition to specific binding, ABA also affects Rubisco s enzymatic activity. This suggests that ABA may act as modulator of photosynthesis through the inhibition of this enzyme. ····· 10361114802

Firstly, it is shown that the anomaly in single anomalous random walkers in a random environment has two different origins, where only the one resulting in the slower dynamics determines the anomaly. Secondly, addressed are dynamics of many walkers in a channel (this process is at times called single file dynamics or the exclusion process). It is shown that the mean square displacement, MSD, of a walker in normal heterogeneous files scales like, MSD~t^ where =(1- g)/[2/(1+a)-g] `a` is related with the initial density of the walkers and `g` with their distribution in diffusion coefficients. Finally, studied are anomalous walkers in a file. These exhibit rich behaviors. Synchronized anomalous walkers and independent anomalous walkers are different, where the later actually form clusters causing a phase transition, and the former scale compactly with normal files. We think that the results in this book can help both mathematical scientists and experimentalists in various fields.

In this study, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) was used to monitor the sensor surface assembly and recognition of three different analytes of cardiac pathology, myoglobin, cardiac troponin I (cTnI) and soluble lectin-like oxidized LDL receptor-1 (sLOX- 1). Myoglobin is rapidly released into the circulatory system after an acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and rapidly rising levels make it the first biochemical marker of myocardial damage, whereas, cTnI is more persistence and specific making a diagnosis more reliable. Circulating levels of sLOX-1 serve as a marker for plaque instability or rupture before an AMI becomes apparent and facilitates early diagnosis of acute coronary syndrome (ACS). The immunosensors were able to detect a clinically relevant range of analyte concentrations.
