Differential expression of dormancy-Associated genes in fastigiata and hypogaea peanut
Authors: M.F.C. Silva, C.R.C. Silva, L.M. Lima, JPC Ramos, and R.C. Santos
Seed dormancy is a temporary replacement state observed in some higher plants, which prevents germination under unfavorable conditions. In several species, dormancy process is triggered by hormonal factors, initiated by ABA and precursor enzymes. In this work, we investigated the relationship between dormancy and the expressio..

Effect of chromosome constitution variations on the expression of Turner phenotype
Authors: A.V.S. Bispo, L.O. dos Santos, P. Bur�©gio-Frota, M.B. Galdino,A.R. Duarte, G.F. Leal, J. Ara�ºjo, B. Gomes, E.M. Soares-Ventura, M.T.C. Muniz and N. Santos
Turner syndrome (TS) is a chronic disease related to haploinsufficiency of genes that are normally expressed in both X chromosomes in patients with female phenotype that is associated with a wide range of somatic malformations. We made detailed cytogenetic and clinical analysis of 65 patients with TS from the region of Recife, Brazil, to determine the eff.. Read More»

Identification of quantitative trait loci for blast resistance in BC2F3 and BC2F5 advanced backcross families of rice
Authors: H.A. Rahim M.A.R. Bhuiyan L.S. Lim K.K. Sabu A. Saad M. Azhar R. Wickneswari
Advanced backcross families derived from Oryza sativa cv MR219/O. rufipogon IRGC105491 were utilized for identification of quantitative trait loci (QTL) for blast resistance using simple sequence repeat markers. Two hundred and sixty-one BC2F3 families were used to construct a linkage map, using 87 markers, which covered 2375.2 cM of 12 rice chromosomes, wit.. Read More»

Identification of introgressed alien chromosome segments associated with grain quality in Oryza rufipogon x MR219 advanced breeding lines using SSR markers
Authors: P. Fasahat K. Muhammad A. Abdullah R. Wickneswari
A limited backcross procedure was utilized to introgress genes associated with grain quality traits from Oryza rufipogon (Accession No. IRGC 105491), a wild rice from Malaysia, to the cultivated rice O. sativa cv. MR219, a popular high yielding Malaysian rice cultivar. A set of 10 BC2F7 progenies were selected based on the field performance and phenotypic.. Read More»

Transcriptional activity of an ovarian-specific promoter from rat in dairy goat granulosa cells
Authors: H.-Y. Liu M.-M. Yang Y.-H. Cui T. Ma X.-Q. Liu L. Bai W.-P. Xiao H.-B. Zhao J.-Y. Peng X.-B. Hu B.-Y. Cao
Ovarian-specific promoter 1 (OSP-1) is a retrovirus-like element isolated from the complementary DNA library of rat that has been thought to be specifically expressed in ovary. To exploit this promoter in dairy goat ovary granulosa cells (GCs), OSP-1 from rat was used to construct the reporter vector pOSP-1-EGFP, in which egfp coding for enhanced green fl.. Read More»

Application of 64-slice spiral computed tomography angiography in extremity vascular injuries
Authors: Y.B. Xia, G.M. Pan, C.J. Geng, F. Xue and Y.Y. Xie
The objective of the current study was to assess the utility of 64-row helical computed tomography angiography (CTA) in the evaluation of extremity vascular traumas. The extremities from 17 clinical cases of suspected traumatic vascular damage were evaluated using 64-row helical CTA. To evaluate extremity vascular traumas using CTA, volume rendering, mult..

Role of GSTM1, GSTT1, and GSTP1 IIe105Val gene polymorphisms in the response to chemotherapy and overall survival of advanced non-small cell lung cancer
Authors: W. Jia, J.Y. Sun, K.Y. Jia and X.C. Liu
We evaluated the association between GSTM1, GSTT1, and GSTP1 IIe105Val gene polymorphisms and treatment outcomes of advanced non-small cell lung carcinoma. Between January 2010 and December 2012, a total of 244 patients with non-small cell lung carcinoma were recruited from Yiwu Central Hospital. The GSTM1, GSTT1, and GSTP1 IIe105Val gene polymorphisms we.. Read More»

Hypertension-mediated enhancement of JNK activation in association with endoplasmic reticulum stress in rat model hippocampus with cerebral ischemia-reperfusion
Authors: Y.N. Zhao, J.M. Li, C.X. Chen, P. Zhang and S.X. Li
Acute brain ischemia can induce the activation of c-Jun N-terminal kinases (JNKs). Hypertension is a critical etiology for brain ischemia. We identified the effects of hypertension on the activation of JNK as well as its impact on SP600125, a JNK inhibitor, during endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS) in the hippocampus using a rat model. Transient whole-brain .. Read More»

Effect of RAGE polymorphisms on susceptibility to and severity of osteoarthritis in a Han Chinese population: a case-control study
Authors: H.Y. Yang, S.Y. Chuang, W.H. Fang, G.S. Huang, C.C. Wang, Y.Y. Huang, M.Y. Chu, C. Lin, W. Su, C.Y. Chen, Y.T. Yang and S.L. Su
Recent studies have revealed that the inflammatory process plays a role in the pathogenesis of osteoarthritis (OA). The S100 family and receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE)participate in regulating inflammation, even in the production of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs). MMP-1 degrades cartilage, which may result in OA development. Moreover.. Read More»
