Abstract Background Dimeric human erythropoietin (dHuEPO) peptides are reported to exhibit significantly higher biological activity than the monomeric form of recombinant EPO.The objective of this study was to produce transgenic (tg) mice expressing dHuEPO and to investigate the characteristics of these mice.Methods A dHuEPO-expressing vector under
Ultrasonic Enhancement of Chondrogenesis in Mesenchymal Stem Cells by Bolt-Clamped Langevin Transducers
We recently investigated the design and swish supreme glide track white fabrication of Langevin-type transducers for therapeutic ultrasound.Effect of ultrasonic energy arising from the transducer on biological tissue was examined.In this study, the transducer was set to radiate acoustic energy to mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) for inducing different
Effects of Two Types of Simple and Sensor Thoracolumbosacral Braces on Ground Reaction Force Components during Walking in Males with Kyphosis
Background and Objective: One of the ways to correct kyphosis is to use braces.This study was done to determine the effects of two types of simple and sensor thoracolumbosacral tenga air-tech regular braces on ground reaction force components during walking in males with kyphosis.Methods: In this quasi-experimental study, 15 males with kyphosis did
Natural products for managing landscape and garden pests in Florida
Many people are seeking available and effective options that are safer for people and the environment than some conventional synthetic pesticides.There is also rising interest in organic gardening, which relies on many natural pesticides.Natural products can be used in isolation or combination with conventional pesticide programs as valuable rotati
