Psoriasis is a persistent, inflammatory, autoimmune skin disorder which can be elicited by genetic and environmental factors. Several microRNAs (miRNAs) that are abnormally expressed in psoriasis have emerged as an interesting candidate in psoriasis pathogenesis. However, the expression profile and function of miRNA-559, and its direct target metadherin (MTDH), in psoriasis need to be further illuminated. This study intended t...

Water resources management in high-stress regions is a large-scale problem affecting food and water security. Therefore, modern irrigation systems such as sprinklers, subsurface, and drip irrigations are applied to manage the water shortage in regions of the Nile delta. Because of the increase in population rate and climate change, freshwater supplies are significantly limited and must be efficiently managed. Consequently, Egy...

Previous research results of Blue Panic ( Panicum antidotale Retz) in arid conditions under different irrigation methods proved an increase in forage yield and water productivity (WP) under full and water stress conditions. However, a thorough search in the literature revealed that its water requirement has not yet been determined. Therefore the objective of this research was to measure evapotranspiration (ET c ) and crop coef...
