Mitogenome evolution in Cephini (Hymenoptera: Cephidae): Evidence for parallel adaptive evolution
(PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD, 2017)
Two mitogenomes of remarkable size of the stem-boring sawflies, Trachelus tabidus (18539 bp) and T. iudaicus (20730 bp), were characterized and compared with previously known mitogenomes of Cephini. A rearrangement in the ...
Prognostic role of soluble suppression of tumorigenicity-2 on cardiovascular mortality in outpatients with heart failure
(TURKISH SOC CARDIOLOGY, 2017)
Objective: Soluble suppression of tumorigenicity-2 (sST2), a member of the interleukin 1 receptor family, is increased in mechanical stress conditions and is produced by cardiomyocytes and cardiac fibroblasts. Elevated ...
Generalized alpha -Meir-Keeler Contraction Mappings on Branciari b-metric Spaces
(UNIV NIS, FAC SCI MATH, 2017)
In this paper, alpha-Meir-Keeler and generalized alpha-Meir-Keeler contractions on Branciari b-metric spaces are introduced. Existence and uniqueness of fixed points of such contractions are discussed and related theorems ...
Long non-coding RNAs in the atherosclerotic plaque
(ELSEVIER IRELAND LTD, 2017)
Background and aims: Genetic and environmental factors are important components of the development of atherosclerosis. Long non-coding RNA (lncRNAs) have emerged as regulators of multiple pathophysiological pathways in the ...
Investigation of acetylcholinesterase and mammalian DNA topoisomerases, carbonic anhydrase inhibition profiles, and cytotoxic activity of novel bis(-aminoalkyl)phosphinic acid derivatives against human breast cancer
(WILEY, 2017)
The aim of this study was to evaluate biologically active novel molecules having potentials to be drugs by their antitumor properties and by activities of apoptotic caspase and topoisomerase. Following syntheses of novel ...
Structural, electronic and optical properties of 2,5-dichloro-p-xylene: experimental and theoretical calculations using DFT method
(ROYAL SOC CHEMISTRY, 2017)
The vibrational spectra including FT-IR and FT-Raman for 2,5-dichloro-p-xylene (DCPX) have been recorded. All the energies, the geometry of the compound and vibrational frequencies of (DCPX) have been calculated using ...
Fossil findings from the Sicak Cermik fissure ridge-type travertines and possible hominid tracks, Sivas, Central Turkey
(TAYLOR & FRANCIS LTD, 2017)
Sicak Cermik (Sivas) is an important geothermal and recent travertine formation area in Central Anatolia. The majority of travertines found in the region comprise fissure-ridge type travertines according to morphological ...
An Experimental Approach for Understanding V-I Characteristic of Electric Arc Furnace Load
(KAUNAS UNIV TECHNOLOGY, 2017)
Electric Arc Furnaces (EAF) are nonlinear loads causing power quality problems on the systems they are connected to. The main reason of EAFs causing power quality problems is the nonlinear characteristics of the electric ...
Serum Leptin, Obestatin, and Ghrelin Levels and Gastric Emptying Rates of Liquid and Solid Meals in Non-obese Rats with Roux-en-Y Bypass Surgery or Prosthesis Placement: Implications for the Role of Vagal Afferents
(SPRINGER, 2017)
Background The present study aimed to investigate the effects of Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) and prosthesis placement on gastric emptying rate in conjunction with serum ghrelin-obestatin-leptin responses in non-obese ...
The role of SCUBE1 in the pathogenesis of no-reflow phenomenon presenting with ST segment elevation myocardial infarction
(TURKISH SOC CARDIOLOGY, 2017)
Objective: SCUBE1 [signal peptide-CUB (complement C1r/C1 s)-EGF (epidermal growth factor)-like domain-containing protein 1] might function as a novel platelet-endothelial adhesion molecule and play pathological roles in ...
