molecular and physiological characterizations of floral scent production in rosa damascena mill.
گل محمدی (r. damascena mill.)مهمترین گونه ای است که در تولید گلاب، عطر و اسانس، در صنعت عطرسازی و دارویی کاربرد دارد. با وجود اهمیت عطر گل محمدی، پژوهش های مولکولی و بیوشیمیایی عطر گل این گونه هنوز در مراحل ابتدایی است. در این پژوهش، ویژگی های مولکولی و فیزیولوژیکی تولید عطر در گل محمدی در آزمایش های مختلف مورد بررسی قرار گرفتند. در آزمایش اول، پژوهشی به منظور بررسی تنوع شیمیایی اسانس میان 44 ت...
Molecular pathogenesis of Wilson and Menkes disease: correlation of mutations with molecular defects and disease phenotypes.
The trace metal copper is essential for a variety of biological processes, but extremely toxic when present in excessive amounts. Therefore, concentrations of this metal in the body are kept under tight control. Central regulators of cellular copper metabolism are the copper-transporting P-type ATPases ATP7A and ATP7B. Mutations in ATP7A or ATP7B disrupt the homeostatic copper balance, resultin...
متن کاملDefective copper-induced trafficking and localization of the Menkes protein in patients with mild and copper-treated classical Menkes disease.
Menkes disease is an X-linked disorder of copper metabolism. An overall copper deficiency reduces the activity of copper-dependent enzymes accounting for the clinical presentation of affected individuals. The Menkes gene product (MNK) is a P-type ATPase and is considered to be the main copper efflux protein in most cells. The protein is located primarily at the trans -Golgi network (TGN), but r...
متن کاملRole of optic microscopy for early diagnosis of Menkes disease.
We report the case of a male patient with a normal development in the first three months of life, presenting for global regression, central axial hypotonic syndrome, pyramidal syndrome, focal epileptic seizures, and a particular aspect of the hair - almost absent, short, sparse, lightly colored, at age of five months, becoming coarse, twisted (kinky hair) by the age of 21 months. Different dise...
متن کاملEarly predictors of outcome in newly diagnosed epilepsy
Longitudinal studies of newly diagnosed epilepsy in children and adults have identified prognostic factors that allow early identification of patients whose seizures are likely to remain uncontrolled with antiepileptic medication. Results from outcome studies may be subject to bias, depending on the setting (community versus clinic), design (retrospective versus prospective) and characteristics...
