This paper reviews the worldwide growth of open‐access ( OA ) repositories, 2005 to 2012, using data collected by OpenDOAR project. Initial repository development was focused on N orth A merica, W estern E urope, and ustralasia, particularly U nited S tates, K ingdom, G ermany, ustralia, followed J apan. Since 2010, there has been in ast sia, outh astern especially T aiwan, B razil, P oland. During period, some countries, including F rance, I taly, pain, have maintained steady growth,...

Resistant strains of bacteria are rapidly emerging with increasing inappropriate use antibiotics rendering them less efficacious. Self-purchasing particularly for viral infections is a key driver use, especially in lower- and middle-income countries. There particular issue countries such as Pakistan. Consequently, there need to assess current rates self-purchasing reserve guide future policies.Assess the extent antibiotic sales without prescription urban areas Pakistan.A multicenter...

Abstract Primary effusion lymphoma (PEL) is an incurable, aggressive B-cell malignancy that develops rapid resistance to conventional chemotherapy. In efforts identify novel approaches block proliferation of PEL cells, we found sanguinarine, a natural compound isolated from the root plant Sanguinaria canadendid, inhibits cell and induces apoptosis in dose-dependent manner several lines. Our data show sanguinarine treatment cells results up-regulation death receptor 5 (DR5) expression via...

We provide evidence that curcumin, a natural compound isolated from rhizomes of plant Curcuma longa, induces apoptosis in several Burkitt's lymphoma cell lines expressing Bax protein (AS283A, KK124, and Pa682PB), whereas it has no effects with expression (BML895 CA46). Our data show curcumin treatment results down-regulation constitutive activation nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-kappaB) via generation reactive oxygen species where causes conformational changes leading to loss mitochondrial...

We have recently shown that deregulation PI3-kinase/AKT survival pathway plays an important role in pathogenesis of diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL). In attempt to identify newer therapeutic agents, we investigated the Resveratrol (trans-3,4', 5-trihydroxystilbene), a naturally occurring polyphenolic compound on panel B-cell (DLBCL) cells causing inhibition viability and inducing apoptosis.We action DLBCL found inhibited induced apoptosis by constitutively activated AKT its downstream...

The putative role of leptin and its receptor (Ob-R) in the pathogenesis various primary human malignancies has been reported; however, their papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) not yet evaluated. We investigated Ob-R a large tissue microarray cohort PTC followed by vitro studies using panel cell lines. overexpression was seen 80% PTCs significantly associated with poor disease-free survival (P=0.0235). that overexpressed showed aggressive phenotype characterized older age, extrathyroid extension,...

S-phase kinase protein 2 (SKP2), an F-box protein, targets cell cycle regulators including cycle-dependent inhibitor p27Kip1 via ubiquitin-mediated degradation. SKP2 is frequently overexpressed in a variety of cancers. We investigated the role and its ubiquitin-proteasome pathway colorectal carcinoma using panel lines, clinical samples, NUDE mouse model. Using immunohistochemical analysis on large tissue microarray 448 inverse association expression with levels was seen. A cancer (CRC)...

Cross-talk between deregulated signaling pathways in cancer cells causes uncontrolled growth and proliferation. These cancers become more aggressive quickly develop resistance to therapy. Therefore targeting of these simultaneously can result efficient cell death cells. In this study we investigated co-expression Cox-2 FoxM1 a cohort colorectal carcinoma (CRC) samples also examined whether inhibition lead viability induction apoptosis lines vivo xenografts. Protein expression was determined...
