Suramin Inhibits pdgf-Stimulated Receptor Phosphorylation, Proteoglycan Synthesis and Glycosaminoglycan Hyperelongation in Human Vascular Smooth Muscle Cells
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Objectives Suramin is a polysulfonated naphthylurea with antiparasitic and potential antineoplastic activity. Suramin’s pharmacological actions, which have not yet been fully elucidated, include antagonism of the action of platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) at its receptor. We investigated the effects of suramin on PDGF-stimulated proteoglycan

Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Heat flows through the mould in casting govern the cooling rate of the liquid which affects the structure and properties of the materials. By controlling the heat flow direction, it is possible to control the structures as well as properties of the materials. To predict the heat-flow through the sand mould, finite element (FE) model was developed u
