Severe intestinal graft-vs-host disease (GVHD) after allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation (HCT) causes mucosal ulceration and induces innate and adaptive immune responses that amplify and perpetuate GVHD and the associated barrier dysfunction.Pharmacological agents to target mucosal barrier dysfunction in GVHD are needed.We hypothesized th
In this study, the karyotype and chromosomal features of darkling beetle Helops glabriventris Reitter, 1885 from Western Anatolia were analyzed using conventional and differential staining.Diploid chromosome number of H.glabriventris Key Tags was determined as 2n = 20 with 9 + Xyp meioformula.The parachute formation of sex bivalents was clearly obs
In this paper, performance behavior of seals under compression and various hydraulic pressures were investigated.Two approaches (experimental and numerical) have been used.It was found that significant improvements in seal performance can be achieved by carefully combining rectangular and circular profiles into one seal.The folding mechanism at the
General hygienic parameters and selected foodborne pathogens in raw milk cheeses at the retail level were evaluated.A total of 245 raw milk cheese samples were analysed for total bacterial count, Enterobacteriaceae, E.coli, Salmonella spp., Listeria monocytogenes, coagulase-positive M Sweater Staphylococci, and staphylococcal enterotoxin.Results sh
