Effects of exogenous testosterone on isolated rabbit corpus cavernosum penis
(ACTA PHARMACOLOGICA SINICA, 2000)
AIM: To study the effects of exogenous excess of testosterone on the constricting effect of phenylephrine and endothelium-dependent and -independent relaxing effects of different:agonists in the corpus cavernosum penis ...
Indirect estimation of the swelling percent and a new classification of soils depending on liquid limit and cation exchange capacity
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2006)
This paper describes the dependence of the swell percent (%S) on the soil properties, namely, liquid limit (LL) and cation exchange capacity (CEC). This study provides the statistical model that can be used to obtain an ...
Prediction of the wettability characteristics of some minerals from their breakage parameters
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2003)
In this contribution, the breakage and wettability properties of calcite and barite minerals were presented and some correlations were established between these experimentally determined parameters. The gamma(c) relates ...
Target peptide recognition by S100P protein and role of central linker region and dimer interface
(BENTHAM SCIENCE PUBL LTD, 2006)
Interaction between S100P and its target protein is an essential step in several cellular functions. The amphiphatic mellitin peptide binds tightly to S100P protein in the presence of calcium cation. Since little is known ...

A case study of crushing resistance of Anatolian sands at lower and higher density
(SPRINGER HEIDELBERG, 2008)
Particle breakage occurs when the stresses imposed on soil particles exceed their strength. In order to determine the crushing resistance, Anatolian sands were collected from three different locations in Turkey. Mineralogical, ...
Nifedipine Enhances the Relaxant Effects of Cyclo-Oxygenase Inhibitors on the Bovine Ciliary Muscle
(MARY ANN LIEBERT, INC, 2008)
Background/Aims: The inhibition of cyclo-oxygenase (COX) enzymes and the blockade of Ca2+ channels play an important role in the regulation of smooth muscle relaxation. This study was designed to investigate the relaxant ...
