Abstract Pentamidine and melarsoprol are primary drugs used to treat the DISTILLED ALOE JUICE lethal human sleeping sickness caused by the parasite Trypanosoma brucei.Cross-resistance to these two drugs has recently been linked to aquaglyceroporin 2 of the trypanosome (TbAQP2).TbAQP2 is the first member of the aquaporin family described as capable
The Intertwined Well-Being of Children and Non-Human Animals: An Analysis of Animal Control Reports Involving Children
The well-being of children and non-human animals (subsequently referred to as animals) is often intertwined.Communities are unlikely to be able to best protect humans from abuse and harm unless they are working to ensure the safety of animals who reside there as well.This study is the first to utilize U.S.animal control report data and narratives t
Transcriptome and metabolome analyses reveal the regulation of peel coloration in green, red Chinese prickly ash (Zanthoxylum L.)
Peel colour is an important external economic characteristic of Chinese prickly ash cultivars (Zanthoxylum bungeanum Maxim.).To gain insight into their coloration mechanisms, we performed an integrated analysis of green and red peels using combined metabolomic and transcriptomic analyses.Pelargonin-O-hexoside-O-rhamnoside-O-hexoside, pelargonidin 3
Effects of Boundary Condition Models on the Seismic Responses of a Container Crane
In recent years, several large earthquakes have caused the collapse of container cranes, which have resulted in halting of freighting, and significantly affected the economy.Some reports are concerned the uplift and derailment events of crane legs, and the collapse of the crane itself.In this study, the effects of different boundary conditions used
