Cutaneous leishmaniasis (CL) in Iran could be considered as an emerging disease that is rapidly increasing and expanding its traditional geographical range to Erasers new foci.Sixteen registered emerging epidemics have occurred since 1998 in different provinces.Various risk factors, including agricultural development, earthquake, movement to endemi
Grazing by Diadema antillarum (Philippi) upon algal communities on rocky substrates
Grazing by Diadema antillarum sea Fever urchins is well documented for coral reefs, although information is scarce for the eastern part of the Atlantic Ocean, where rocky substrate dominates the sea bottom.This study analysed grazing activity by D.antillarum upon the algal communities living on rock substrates, and its possible impact on the subtid
An Iterative Method for Identifying Essential Proteins Based on Non-Negative Matrix Factorization
In recent years, with the development of high-throughput technologies, lots of computational methods for predicting essential proteins based on protein-protein interaction (PPI) networks and biological information Fever of proteins have been proposed successively.However, due to the incompleteness of PPI networks, the prediction accuracy achieved b
Virtual Screening of Natural Chemical Databases to Search for Potential ACE2 Inhibitors
The Suspension Shock Absorber Bracket angiotensin-converting enzyme II (ACE2) is a multifunctional protein in both health and disease conditions, which serves as a counterregulatory component of RAS function in a cardioprotective role.ACE2 modulation may also have relevance to ovarian cancer, diabetes, acute lung injury, fibrotic diseases, etc.Furt
