After all, there is no dearth of examples pointing to trigger situations leading to ex-smokers lighting up again. As a result, if you expect to remain smoke free for the remainder of your life, it becomes crucial that you identify trigger situations that can cause you to light up, and things you can do to tide over such instances.Start...more
Easy and Window Washing are words that dont normally go together. No one likes to wash windows, and nothing shows more than dirty windows. We hear many times that we dont do windows.

Don't panic. Creating a non-profit business proposal might seem like a daunting task, but there are ways to make your job easier. Plenty of resources exist that will show you how to introduce yourself, highlight your organization, outline your needs, and help donors and supporters understand that you and your cause are worthy of support. Here's the key: you don't have to start by staring a blank computer screen. Using a product that includes pre-written topics and similar sample proposals can help you efficiently create your own winning proposal.It doesn't matter if you are involved in retraining, education, helping the homeless, providing shelter, saving the environment, improving medical access, recruiting volunteers, or gathering goods for the holidays.

INTRODUCTIONThe normal functioning of the cell, its proliferation and apoptosis depend a lot on the Ras activated MAPK pathway. Most of the cancers are due to mutations in this pathway. The hyperactivation of this pathway accompanied by the accumulation of the genetic alterations leads to the transformation of the cell. The cancer cells start...more

INTRODUCTIONMEK1/2 are the most essential components of the Ras activated MAPK pathway. They are dual specific kinases and play a significant role in activation of the downstream targets like ERK1/2. PD98059 acts as a specific inhibitor to MEK1 and MEK2 enzymes at a concentration of 4 M and 50 M, respectively. A cell contains many other related dual specific enzymes and kinases which are closely related to MEK1 and MEK2. However this inhibitor is very specific in its action and does not affect these enzymes.PD98059: ACTION ON OA INDUCED CELL DEATHOkadaic acid or OA is a protein phosphatase inhibitor and its effect was studied on hippocampal neuron cultures. It was found that OA caused a significant damage to these culture cells in a dose dependent manner. ERK1 and ERK2 that is p44/42(mapk) kinases were rapidly phosphorylated at their tyrosine residues. This phosphorylation was found to be reduced by the introduction of the inhibitor, PD98059. This inhibitor could reverse the cell death induced by Okadaic acid [1].PD98059: HELPS IN THE STUDY OF PHOSPHORYLATION OF NEUROFILAMENT PROTEINSNeurofilament proteins of mammals like NF-M and NF-H remain in a highly phosphorylated state within...more
INTRODUCTIONCancerous growth of cells is the net outcome of a number of mutations. Amongst the various pathways studied in this line, the most affected pathway during cancer has been found to be originating from Ras and moving down through Raf...more
