Endometriosis, an autoimmune disease is among one of the most challenging of the 21 st century that affects women in reproductive age. The aim of the present study is to highlight the role of IL-36γ, and its relationship with other cytokines (Ang-2 and TNF-α) in the pathogenesis of endometriosis . Seventy five (75) consecutive women patient of reproductive age (25-40) years were enrolled in this study , Patients were divided into three groups , group 1 (G1) included (25) newly diagnosed endometriotic patients , that were not given any treatment related to Gynecology or anti-inflammatory medications . Second group : group 2 (G2) consists of (25) endometriotic patient who were treated with zoladex for 3 to 5 months , they received zoladex injection every 28 day in the first day after diagnosis. The third group: Group 3 (G3) involved (25) patients with recurrent endometriosis , they were post treatment of zoladex and diagnosis revealed recurrence of endometriosis. Patients groups were compared with two control groups , with matched age with patients’ groups. The first control group (C) included (25) healthy women , and the second control group or pathological control group (PC) involved (25) women suffering from infertility caused by gynecological disorder unrelated to endometriosis.IL-36γ , Ang-2 and TNF-α were estimated in sera of studied groups. The results from this study revealed that IL-36γ levels were highly significant increase (p<0.001) and significant increase (p<0.05) in G1 comparing with groups C and PC respectively. While high significant decrease(p<0.001) was found in G2 comparing with G1. Also , there are no significant differences (p≥0.05) shown in G2 comparing with C group and in G3 comparing with G1.On the otherhand , Ang-2 levels were highly significant increased (p<0.001) and significant increase (p<0.05) in G1 comparing with groups C and PC respectively. While significant decrease (p<0.05) was found in G2 comparing with G1. Also , there are no significant differences (p≥0.05) in Ang-2 levels shown in G2 comparing with C group and in G3 comparing with G1 Our results also implied that TNF-α levels were highly significant increased (p<0.001) in G1 comparing with C group. While no significant differences (p≥0.05) was found in G1 comparing with PC group and in G3 comparing with G1. Also there are significant differences (p<0.05) shown in G2 comparing with G1 and C group. Our findings for endometriotic patient groups. A high significant difference was found between Ang-2 and TNF-α levels with IL-36γ for G1 , G2 and G3. The conclusion of this study reveals that IL-36γ could be considered a novel biochemical marker in endometriotic patients. Conclusion could be drawn from the results that endometriosis may be influenced on the cytokines secretion such as IL-36γ beside Ang-2 and TNF-α in G1 and G3 , suggesting that inflammatory / immunological factors associating with angiogenesis responses play crucial roles in the pathogenesis of endometriosis. Also, the results showed the role of zoladex in alteration immune responses as shown in G2
This paper aimed to investigate the effect of the height-to-length ratio of unreinforced masonry (URM) walls when loaded by a vertical load. The finite element (FE) method was implemented for modeling and analysis of URM wall. In this paper, ABAQUS, FE software with implicit solver was used to model and analysis URM walls subjected to a vertical load. In order to ensure the validity of Detailed Micro Model (DMM) in predicting the behavior of URM walls under vertical load, the results of the proposed model are compared with experimental results. Load-displacement relationship of the proposed numerical model is found of a good agreement with that of the published experimental results. Evidence shows that load-displacement curve obtained fro

The dilution 1 x 10-2 showed a significant and high mortality rates on the eggs, first and fifth instars of the homaira larvae which reaches 100%, 96.19% and 91.20% after 7 days from treatment. However mortality rates found to be decreased to 88.97% for fifth instar after 10 days from treatment, while results showed parasitism potentially reaches 94.50% in pupae and 90.22% in adults.
Le Petit Prince est apparu en 1943 vers la fin de la vie de son auteur. La mondialité qu'a gagnée ce récit le rend un des livres les plus lus et les plus vendus dans le monde. Cette popularité en fait un des classiques de la littérature française.
En effet la littérature française a un impact profond et direct sur la vie intellectuelle et littéraire dans le monde arabe. La circulation des œuvres littéraires écrites en français a bien influencé les lecteurs arabes soit en langue française soit traduites en arabe. Cette réalité est identique lorsqu'on parle de la réception du Petit Prince ; l'œuvre la plus connue dans le monde entier dès son apparition officielle.

Managing unstructured social media data is difficult. Noisy data is a challenge to sentiment analysis. Since over 50% of the sentiment analysis process is data pre-processing, processing big social media data is challenging too. If pre-processing is carried out correctly, data accuracy may improve. Also, sentiment analysis workflow is highly dependent. Because no pre-processing technique works well in all situations or with all data sources, choosing the most important ones is crucial. Prioritization is an excellent technique for choosing the most important ones. As one of many Multi-Criteria Decision Mak

Show MoreThe effects of nutrients and physical conditions on phytase production were investigated with a recently isolated strain of Aspergillus tubingensis SKA under solid state fermentation on wheat bran. The nutrient factors investigated included carbon source, nitrogen source, phosphate source and concentration, metal ions (salts) and the physical parameters investigated included inoculum size, pH, temperature and fermentation duration. Our investigations revealed that optimal productivity of phytase was achieved using wheat bran supplemented with: 1.5% glucose. 0.5% (NH4)2SO4, 0.1% sodium phytate. Additionally, optimal physical conditions were 1 × 105 spore/g substrate, initial pH of 5.0, temperature of fermentation 30˚C and fermentation dura

A large number of natural or synthetic dyes have been removed from both national and international lists of permitted food colors because of their mutagenic or carcinogenic activity. Therefore, this study aimed to use the Random Amplified Polymorphic DNA-Based Polymerase Chain Reaction (RAPD-PCR) assay as a feasible method to evaluate the ability of some food colors as genotoxin-induced DNA damage and mutations. Lactiplantibacillus plantarum was used as a bioindicator to determine the genotoxic effects by RAPD-PCR using M13 primer after treatment with some synthetic dyes currently used as food color additives, including Sunset Yellow, Carmoisine, and Tartrazine. Besides qualitative analysis, the bioinformatic GelJ software was used for clus
