The article presents the results of studies of the effect of fenbenzyl and fenbendazole on the antioxidant status in dogs under the experimental infection with a causative agent of toxocariasis.Experiments were performed on 18 dogs, two and four months old.Three groups of six animals in each were formed: control and two experimental.Puppies in all
Clutch Abandoning Parasitised Yellow Warblers Have Increased Circulating Corticosterone With No Effect of Past Corticosterone or Differences in Egg Maculation Characteristics
Parental care can be costly to parents’ fitness.As such, abandonment of the current reproductive attempt may benefit potential future opportunities, maximising lifetime reproductive success.Obligate brood parasitism, a reproductive strategy in which parasites lay their eggs in the nests of other species and rely solely on them to raise the parasi
Tax and brain drain: Justification, policy options and prospect for large developing economies
International migration has continued to escalate over the last three decades, creating a risk of brain drain in developing countries.This paper reviews the extent to which the use of tax instruments to address brain drain can be justified in developing METAL economies with large populations.Furthermore, it explores and assesses tax policy options
Quantifying esophageal motion during free-breathing and breath-hold using fiducial markers in patients with early-stage esophageal cancer.
INTRODUCTION:Cardiac toxicity after definitive chemoradiotherapy for esophageal cancer is a critical issue.To reduce irradiation doses to organs at risk, individual internal margins need to be identified and minimized.The purpose of this study was to quantify esophageal motion using fiducial makers based on four-dimensional computed tomography, and
Transcription factor clusters regulate genes in eukaryotic cells
Transcription is regulated through binding factors to gene promoters to activate or repress expression, however, the mechanisms Lips by which factors find targets remain unclear.Using single-molecule fluorescence microscopy, we determined in vivo stoichiometry and spatiotemporal dynamics of a GFP tagged repressor, Mig1, from a paradigm signaling pa
