Casearia sylvestris Sw.(Salicaceae) is noted for its morphological and chemical plasticity and pharmacological properties.The present study investigates two of its varieties: C.sylvestris var.sylvestris, predominant in dense and humid forests and ecotones and characterized by clerodane diterpenes; and C.sylvestris var.lingua, mainly found in xeric
Background: Oral Lichen Planus is a chronic inflammatory mucosal disease, presenting in various clinical forms.Both antigen-specific and non-specific mechanisms involved in the pathogenesis of OLP.Apoptosis or programmed-cell death is a physiological process essential for the normal development and maintenance of homeostasis in many organisms.Fas i
In this article, a method for calculation of air loads of an aircraft with an elastic wing is presented.The method can predict a redistribution of air loads when the elastic wing venus tops and blouses deforms.Unlike the traditional Euler or Navier-Stokes CFD to FEM coupling, the method uses 3D panel method as a source of aerodynamic data.This make
Mobile genetic elements (MGEs) drive extensive horizontal transfer in the gut microbiome.This transfer could benefit human health by conferring new metabolic capabilities to commensal microbes, or it could threaten human health by spreading antibiotic resistance genes to pathogens.Despite their biological importance and medical relevance, MGEs from
Urban herpetology deals with the interaction of amphibians and reptiles with each other and their environment in an urban setting.As such, well-preserved natural areas within urban environments can be important tools for conservation.Edith L.Moore Nature mrf53ll/a Sanctuary is an 18-acre wooded sanctuary located west of downtown Houston, Texas and
