Genome-wide analysis of the auxin response factor gene family in cucumber
Authors: S.Q. Liu and L.F. Hu
Auxin response factors (ARFs) participate in the transcriptional regulation of a series of biological processes related to growth and development. The ARF genes comprise a large multigene family in plants. Recently, a draft of the full cucumber (Cucumis sativus) genome assembly has been released; however, none of the ARF genes have been characterized. We .. Read More»

Polymorphisms of the vitamin D receptor gene and the risk of inflammatory bowel disease: a meta-analysis
Authors: L.Wang, Z.T. Wang, J.J. Hu, R. Fan, J. Zhou and J. Zhong
The gene encoding vitamin D receptor (VDR) is recognized as a promising candidate for indicating the development of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Four genetic polymorphisms (ApaI, BsmI, FokI, TaqI) in VDR have been widely evaluated to determine their association with IBD, and the results of these evaluations are often inco.. Read More»

Genetic polymorphisms of LPL and HL and their association with the performance of Chinese sturgeons fed a formulated diet
Authors: Y. He1*, D. Shen1*, X.F. Liang1, R.H. Lu1 and H. Xiao2
It is very important to investigate the reasons for the large individual differences in individual performance of food acceptance when using formulated diets for the successful culture of larvae and juveniles of the Chinese sturgeon Acipenser sinensis. Genetic differences of the mitochondrial control region were investigated by direct sequencing in two gr.. Read More»

Association between adipose tissue expression and serum levels of leptin and adiponectin in women with polycystic ovary syndrome
Authors: S.B. Lecke, D.M. Morsch and P.M. Spritzer
We reviewed emerging evidence linking serum levels and adipose tissue expression of leptin and adiponectin in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Previous data obtained by our group from a sample of overweight/obese PCOS women and a control sample of normal weight controls, both stratified by BMI, were reanalyzed. Circulating levels of leptin and.. Read More»

Comparison of bivariate and multivariate joint analyses on the selection loss of beef cattle
Authors: V.B. Pedrosa, E. Groeneveld, J.P. Eler and J.B.S. Ferraz
For genetic evaluation of beef cattle, univariate or bivariate analyses are often performed as an alternative to decrease the complexity of matrices and mathematical models compared to multivariate analysis, which considers a larger number of joint traits. The use of bivariate methods to calculate genetic predictors may cause .. Read More»

Cloning and expression analysis of PpSUT2 encoding a sucrose transporter in pear
Authors: J. Tang, J. Lin, B.L. Zhang, Z.H. Wang, X.G. Li and Y.H. Chang
A 1794-bp cDNA fragment was amplified from mRNA isolated from pear (Pyrus pyrifolia NaKai. Cuiguan) leaves by using primers based on the sequences generated during the analysis of the pear transcriptome. The 597-amino acid sequence encoded by the cDNA was compared with the sequences in GenBank, and it was found to be similar to that of members of the sucr.. Read More»

Different timing and spatial separation of parental chromosomes in intergeneric somatic hybrids between Brassica napus and Orychophragmus violaceus
Authors: L. Ding, Z.G. Zhao, X.H. Ge and Z.Y. Li
Experimental and newly formed hybrids and polyploids generated by wide crosses usually show varying degrees of cytological instability. The spatial separation of parental genomes and uniparental chromosome elimination in hybrid cells has been reported in many hybrids from plants and animals. Herein, the behavior of parental ge..

Genetic variations in MOV10 and CACNB2 are associated with hypertension in a Chinese Han population
Authors: G.L. Hong, X.Z. Chen, Y. Liu, Y.H. Liu, X. Fu, S.B. Lin and Q. Zhu
Human hypertension is a complex, multifactorial disease. Multiple variants associated with hypertension have been identified in the large numbers of genome-wide association studies, meta-analysis, and case-control studies. The present study investigated the association between the single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of five candidate genes and the susc.. Read More»

Gene polymorphisms associated with susceptibility to coronary artery disease in Han Chinese people
Authors: Y.H. Liu, Y.W. Zhou, J.A.Yang, Z.G. Tu, S.Y. Ji, Z.Y. Huang and Z.J. Zhou
This study investigated 5 single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) haplotypes in susceptibility genes for coronary artery disease (CAD) and the putative involvement of these SNPs in CAD in the Chinese Han population. From March 2008 to June 2009, we selected 119 CAD patients and 115 subjects not related to the CAD of Chinese Han o.. Read More»

Regulation network analysis of testicular seminoma at various stages of progression
Authors: J.-J. Sha, Y.-H. Dong, D.-M. Liu, J.-J. Bo, Y.-R. Huang, Z. Li and P. Ping
Testicular seminoma has become the most common solid malignancy in young men, especially in the 20s group. We obtained the gene expression profile of human testicular seminoma cells from NCBI, identified the differentially expressed genes of testicular seminoma cells of different stages, and constructed the regulation networks of different stages of testi..
