Authors: C.S. Bento, R. Rodrigues, L.S.A. Gon�§alves, H.S. Oliveira, M.H. Santos, M.C. Pontes and C.P. Sudr�©
We investigated inheritance of resistance to Pepper yellow mosaic virus (PepYMV) in Capsicum baccatum var. pendulum accessions UENF 1616 (susceptible) crossed with UENF 1732 (resistant). Plants from generations P1, P2, F1, F2, BC1:1, and BC1:2 were inoculated and the symptoms were evaluated for 25 days. Subsequently, an area under the disease progress cur.. Read More»

Sequence analysis of the regulatory region of the TNF-RII gene in Polish Holstein-Friesian cows
Authors: A. Stachura, E. Kaczmarczyk and B. BojarojÃ?Â?-Nosowicz
Tumor necrosis factor receptor type II (TNF-RII) is a surface glycoprotein that can form a complex with TNF-α and participate in the body’s immune response. Functions of TNF-RII are impaired in the pathogenesis of viral diseases. We analyzed sequences in the regulatory region of the TNF-RII gene in cattle. An attempt was also made to identify ..

Characterization and expression analysis of the prophenoloxidase activating factor from the mud crab Scylla paramamosain
Authors: J. Wang, K.J. Jiang, F.Y. Zhang, W. Song, M. Zhao, H.Q. Wei, Y.Y. Meng and L.B. Ma
Prophenoloxidase activating factors (PPAFs) are a group of clip domain serine proteinases that can convert prophenoloxidase (pro-PO) to the active form of phenoloxidase (PO), causing melanization of pathogens. Here, two full-length PPAF cDNAs from Scylla paramamosain (SpPPAF1 and SpPPAF2) were cloned and characterized. The full-length SpPPAF1 cDNA was 167.. Read More»

Feasibility of comfortable and secure intubation achieved with the Disposcope endoscope or Macintosh laryngoscope for patients in whom glottis viewing is difficult
Authors: X.-H. Li,Z. Sun and L.-L. He
We aimed to study the feasibility of a comfortable and secure intubation achieved with the Disposcope endoscope or Macintosh laryngoscope when glottis viewing is difficult. Forty adults scheduled for elective surgery under general anesthesia, in whom glottis viewing was difficult with the Macintosh laryngoscope (classified as Cormack-Lehane Grade III or I.. Read More»

Insulin receptor binding motif tagged with IgG4 Fc (Yiminsu) works as an insulin sensitizer to activate Akt signaling in hepatocytes
Authors: J. Wang, T. Zou, H.X. Yang, Y.Z. Gong, X.J. Xie, H.Y. Liu and D.F. Liao
Insulin resistance is a key feature of obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Interaction of insulin with the insulin receptor (IR) leads to both its auto-phosphorylation and phosphorylation of tyrosine residues on the IR substrate (IRS) proteins, initiating the activation of intracellular signaling cascades. The metabolic effects of IRS are known t.. Read More»

Prediction of core cancer genes using a hybrid of feature selection and machine learning methods
Authors: Y.X. Liu, N.N. Zhang, Y. He and L.J. Lun
Machine learning techniques are of great importance in the analysis of microarray expression data, and provide a systematic and promising way to predict core cancer genes. In this study, a hybrid strategy was introduced based on machine learning techniques to select a small set of informative genes, which will lead to improving classification accuracy. Fi.. Read More»

Association between matrix metalloproteinase-9 rs3918242 polymorphism and development of coronary artery disease in a Chinese population
Authors: L.M. Qin, G.M. Qin, X.H. Shi, A.L. Wang and H. Zuo
We conducted a case-control study to investigate the role of one single nucleotide polymorphism of MMP-9 rs3918242 in the development of coronary artery disease. The rs3918242 was amplified with 435-bp DNA fragments using polymerase chain reaction coupled with restriction fragment length polymorphism. When compared with contro.. Read More»

Role of adiponectin in adipose tissue wound healing
Authors: C.E. Jin, L. Xiao, Z.H. Ge, X.B. Zhan and H.X. Zhou
The purpose of this study was to investigate the mechanism behind adipose tissue wound healing (ATWH). The preadipocyte cell line 3T3-L1 was cultured and expression of adiponectin receptors (AdipoR1/2) was detected by immunohistochemistry and reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction. The concentration of adiponectin secreted at different cell densi.. Read More»

Impact of adherence to GOLD guidelines on 6-minute walk distance, MRC dyspnea scale score, lung function decline, quality of life, and quality-adjusted life years in a Shanghai suburb
Authors: Y.Q. Jiang, Y.X. Zhu, X.L. Chen, X. Xu, F. Li, H.J. Fu, C.Y. Shen, Y.Y. Lu, Q.J. Zhuang, G. Xu, Y.Y. Cai, Y. Zhang, S.S. Liu, M.Y. Zhu and S.H. Li
We performed a 1-year cluster-randomized field trial to assess the effect of standardized management of chronic obstructivepulmonary disease (COPD) on lung function and quality of life (QOL) measures in patients in China. We used the Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease (GOLD) treatment guidelines and assessed indexes including pulmonary.. Read More»
