The Caspian miniature horse is one of the rare small breeds in the north of Iran. In the present study, the position of the heart and its valves were determined topographically in 4 miniature horses. We found that Caspian miniature horses have general similarities, with certain topographical variability, with other horses.

Gastrointestinal tumors are the main causes of death among the patients. These tumors are mainly diagnosed in the advanced stages and their response to therapy is unfavorable. In spite of the development of conventional therapeutics including surgery, chemotherapy, radiotherapy and immunotherapy, the treatment of these tumors is still challenging.

The conjugation of monoclonal antibodies with superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs) has appeared as a potential multifunctional clinical tool, which can effectively diagnose cancers and monitor their treatment, specifically. Despite the presence of different methods for conjugating antibodies to iron oxide nanoparticles, novel cost-effective and simpler conjugation techniques should be performed in this regard. In current study, an anti-CD3 monoclonal antibody was conjugated to the Fe3O4 coated by carboxymethyl dextran (CMD) using cyanogen bromide (CNBr).

Morphology, hydrophilicity, degradation, mechanical properties, drug release, bacterial resistance, and cell viability are indispensable parameters for a bioactive wound dressing. In this work, the aforementioned terms between hybrid and blend nanofibrous samples based on poly (L-lactide--D, L-lactide) (PLDLLA) and poly (vinyl alcohol) (PVA) containing triclosan (Tri) as an antibacterial drug were investigated. The FE-SEM images showed that the presence of Tri in the hybrid and blend samples led to bimodal, and unimodal diameter size distributions.

We hypothesize the phylogenetic relationships of the agamid genus to assess how past environmental changes shaped the evolutionary and biogeographic history of these lizards and especially the impact of paleogeography and climatic factors. is one of the most diverse and taxonomically confusing lizard genera. As a key element of Palearctic deserts, it serves as a promising model for studies of historical biogeography and formation of arid habitats in Eurasia.
