Abstract

Leaves emergence and the rate of elongation have been studied in Hajambro creek in Indus deltaic region, Pakistan. Leaves emergence was found higher during the summer months (mostly pre-monsoon period), that was March April, May and June. Leaves of A. marina that were observed from March to July, till the leaves reached their maximum length (about 77 mm), showed a gradual increase in their length, reaching maximum in April. Leaves of Avicennia marina reached their maximum length (about 77 mm) in about 113 days. The leaves showed gradual increase in their length, reaching maximum in April (0.97mm d-1). The per-day increment in length was 0.54 mm d-1. As reaching their maximum length (77mm), the per-day increment in the length gradually slower down. The leaves of Rhizophora mucronata were observed from February to November. The leaves of Rhizophora mucronata showed elongation rate of 0.24 mm d-1 from the day of the first observation till the leaves reached their maximum length (120 mm). The maximum time required by the leaves to reach their maximum length (120 mm) was 236 days. The rates of elongation of leaves are also fast in summer. The rate of elongation of the leaves was found to be highly correlated with the temperature (p

Abstract

Black Kite Milvus migrans was seen capturing and captivating everything nearby the offal and garbage sites in Kurukshetra environs until recent past. Today it has been observed that between 2000 and 2010, its depletion is speeding fast, although not noticed in the scientific and social world. The skies in late morning hours are empty. Garbage sites demonstrate the absence of criss-crossing flights of this Kite. The popular sites of the roosting in the shape of Peepal Ficus religiosa, Banyan Ficus benghalensis and Mango Mangifera indica trees have been cut down in the first place. In Kurukshetra, the prime reason for the depletion could be attributed to destruction of foraging grounds (Elimination of garbage dumping sites), cutting down of traditional roosting and nesting sites and construction of colonies in the nearby erstwhile agriculture fields. The contiguous agriculture fields are devoid of any traditional trees like Peepal, Mango and hence no roosting and nesting places. The soaring Kites in the high skies in the forenoon and afternoon sessions were more or less absent. So much so that huge Garbage sites at Panipat Railway compound had no Black Kites. Shockingly, it seems that like Vultures, Black Kites are on their way to elimination in Haryana.

Abstract

Calcusol is a traditional medicine (jamu) ade from Tempuyung (Sonchus arvensis) extract and is usually used for cure kidney stone disease. However, there has not been any studies which investigate the its mechanism. The aim of this study is to know the effect of Calcusolâ„¢ to the plasma free radical and serum creatinin of Mus musculus model for renal calcium-oxalate accumulation. This study is carried out by administration of Porang (Amorphophallus muelleri) tuber flour for 3 months with the doses 6 mg/100g BW to induce renal calcium oxalate accumulation and Calcusolâ„¢ treatment for 7 days with the doses of 3.3mg/g BW. Group I was used as a control group. Group II was only given porang (A. muelleri)every day for 3 months. Group III was only given Calcusolâ„¢ for 7 days. Group IV were given porang (A. muelleri) for 3 months then given Calcusolâ„¢ for 7 days. Group V were given porang (A. muelleri) and Calcusolâ„¢ simultaneously for 3 months. Porang and CalcusolTM is administrated orally. Blood was collected from the tail of theanimal for serum creatinin test and plasma free radical test using TBARS method. The data was analyzed using ANOVA followed by Tukey HSD to compare the means employing SPSS 16.0 forwindows. The result of the research shows that the treatment Calcusolâ„¢ on mice model for renal calcium oxalate accumulation. The content of MDA at group I, group II, group III, group IV and group V, respectivelyis 0.81±0.5 mg/ml; 2.63±0.8 mg/ml; 0.56±0.5 mg/ml; 2.09±0.9 mg/ml and 0.17±0.17 mg/ml. And the content of serum creatinine are 0.15±0.04 mg/dL; 0.13±0.03 mg/dL; 0.12±0.08 mg/dL; 0.11±0.016 mg/dL and 0.14±0.015 mg/dL at group I, group II, group III, Group IV, and group V respectively. This indicates that Calcusolâ„¢ decreases plasma free radical production during renal stone formation, while serum creatinin reduced but not significantly changed. Calcusolâ„¢ has an effect to decrease free radical during renalstone formation inmice model for calcium oxalate accumulation and also decrease serum creatinin.

Abstract

This study aimed to prove the difference of TLR4 and subunit p65NF-kB expression between children with steroid-sensitive nephrotic syndrome (SSNS) and those with steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome (SRNS) and to find out the correlation between expression of TLR4 and p65NF-kB on children with SRNS. Twenty three patients of idiopathic nephrotic syndrome patients (INS) were enrolled in this study and classified into two groups—those with SSNS (11 patients) and SRNS (12 patients). Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells (PBMC) isolation was performed, taken from 5 ml patients blood samples, followed by monocyte isolation of PMBC using monocyte culture. Examination of TLR4 and p65 NF-kB expression from monocyte's cells culture was performed using flow cytometry. All data were processed using Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS 15) for Windows. From 11 patients that were classified into SSNS group, 81.8% having good nutritional status and 18.2% comprising undernourished status compared to 12 patients of the SRNS group, in which 6 accounting for 41.7% having good nutritional status, 50% having undernourished status and 8.3% having malnourishment status. The average age is 7.59 ± 3.52 and six years old is the highest age studied. Based on normality tests using Shapiro-Wilk, variables of TLR4 have p value of 0.620 and p65 NF-kB have p value of 0.027, showing that the data of TLR4 was distributed normally but p65 NF-kB data was not distributed normally. The test on TLR4 data variation using Levene Test showed its significance value of p was 0.318, meaning that the data was homogeneous. Using unpaired t-test, the differences of TLR4 expression between SSNS and SRNS was significant (p=0.012), while using Mann-Whitney test, the differences of p65 NF-kB expression between SSNS and SRNS showed an insignificant correlation (p=0.880). Pearson correlation test between the expression of TLR4 and p65 NF-kB showed no significant correlation (p=0.472), while Spearman correlation test to see the relationship between expression of TLR4 and SRNS produced correlation value of 0.512 and its importance p value was 0.013 (p
