Genetic diversity analysis of Mongolian native cattle and other cattle breeds based on microsatellite marker
Authors: K.H. Tseveen, J.S Jung, B. Oyungerel and H.S Kong
In this study, we used genetic diversity analysis with Microsatellite (MS) markers to determine the relationships between two Mongolian native breeds (MNB) (n=78) which were compared with three foreign breeds (FB) (n=110) in Mongolia. For the analysis of genetic diversity, 11 recommended MS markers from a diversity panel conducted by the ISAG / FAO or pre.. Read More»

Authors: Sadasivam Pachamuthu, Zubin A Zaheer, Bhuvaneshwari Sampath, Dharani Muralidharan, Rajaprabu Ramachandran and Kavitha Sankaranarayanan
Background/Aim: Electrochemotherapy is an innovative method for the localized treatment of cutaneous and subcutaneous metastatic cancers. The aim of the study is to assess the changes at the plasma membrane and its recovery time by monitoring the regulated passage of ions through specific ion channels as measured by electrophysiology. Materials an.. Read More»

Soy is an important legume for global economy. The objectives of this study were evaluated soybean genotypes in different growing environments as for their agronomic characters and resistance to leaf spots, and determine the adaptability and phenotypic stability of materials in relation to the place of cultivation. Experiments were conducted in the cities.. Read More»

Novel polymorphisms in the PLIN2 gene of Nellore cattle
Authors: Heloisa Defant, Ariana N Meira, Luiz L Coutinho, Luciana CA Regitano, Mirele D Poleti, Gabriel CM Moreira, Marcela Paduan, Pilar Mariani, Adhemar Zerlotini, Gerson B Mourão, Aline SM Cesar
Genetic variations in genes involved in lipid storage, which also may interfere with important phenotypic traits such as intramuscular fat deposition in cattle, can represent useful markers in marker assisted selection programs. An important candidate gene is perilipin 2 (PLIN2) that plays a role in the capture of long chain fatty acids and in th.. Read More»

Introduction: Food allergies (FA) have been increasing dramatically over the past 25 years and the peanut allergy has been noticed more likely for a half-decade as well. The prevalence of FA in children was found to be 10%, which is high compared with adults. Limited periodic reports are available of numerous food allergic reactions in ch.. Read More»

Relation between MTHFR (Methylenetetrahydrofolate Reductase) gene functional polymorphisms and magnitude of Recurrent Pregnancy Losses (RPL) among women with low socio-economic status in Asian Indians
Authors: Dhatri Madduru, Supriya K, Kethora Dirsipam, Prasanna Latha Komaravalli, Syed Sayeeduddin and Parveen Jahan
The present study was intended to investigate the role of MTHFR gene functional polymorphisms, rs1801133 (C677T) and rs1801131 (A1298C) in the susceptibility and severity of Recurrent Pregnancy Losses (RPLs) in women with low socio-economic status among Asian Indians. We screened a total of 221 women that includes 102 RPL patients and 11.. Read More»

Molecular insights of mitochondrial 16S rDNA genes of the native honey bees subspecies Apis mellifera carnica and Apis mellifera jementica (Hymenoptera: Apidae) in Saudi Arabia
Authors: Reem Alajmi, Rewaida Abdel-Gaber, Loloa Alfozana
The honey bee Apis mellifera is of major importance for the world’s agriculture and is also suitable for environmental monitoring. It includes several recognized subspecies distinguished by using morphological and morphometric variants. Here, 200 adult worker Apis mellifera honey bees were collected from Hail region, Saudi Arabia. Mitochondrial 16S .. Read More»

Expression analysis of long non-coding RNAs GSTT1-AS1 and IFNG-AS1 and their target genes in lung cancer
Authors: Farbod Esfandi, Zabih Mir Hassani, Shahram Arsang-Jang, Mohammad Taheri, Soudeh Ghafouri-Fard
Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have recently gained attention because of their regulatory roles on expression of genes involved in the immune response and cancer. In the present study, we evaluated expression of two lncRNAs (GSTT1-AS1 and IFNG-AS1) and their target genes (TNFA and IFNG) in human lung cancer samples and their adjacent non-cancerous tissues..
