the role of russia in transmission of energy from central asia and caucuses to european union
پس ازفروپاشی شوروی،رشد منابع نفت و گاز، آسیای میانه و قفقاز را در یک بازی ژئوپلتیکی انرژی قرار داده است. با در نظر گرفتن این منابع هیدروکربنی، این منطقه به یک میدانجنگ و رقابت تجاری برای بازی های ژئوپلتیکی قدرت های بزرگ جهانی تبدیل شده است. روسیه منطقه را به عنوان حیات خلوت خود تلقی نموده و علاقمند به حفظ حضورش می باشد تا همانند گذشته گاز طبیعی را به وسیله خط لوله مرکزی دریافت و به عنوان یک واس...
15 صفحه اولMutational screening of VSX1, SPARC, SOD1, LOX, and TIMP3 in keratoconus
PURPOSE To evaluate the involvement of Visual System Homeobox 1 (VSX1), Secreted Protein Acidic and Rich in Cysteine (SPARC), Superoxide Dismutase 1 (SOD1), Lysyl Oxidase (LOX), and Tissue Inhibitor of Metalloproteinase 3 (TIMP3) in sporadic and familial keratoconus. METHODS Mutational analysis of the five genes was performed by sequencing and fragment analysis in a large cohort of 302 Italia...
متن کاملVSX1 and SOD1 Mutation Screening in Patients with Keratoconus in the South of Iran
PURPOSE To investigate mutations of visual system homeobox 1 (VSX1) and superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1) in 20 patients with keratoconus in the south of Iran. METHODS Twenty patients with keratoconus who had a positive familial history were enrolled in this study and gave informed consent for DNA analysis. Genomic DNA was extracted from peripheral blood lymphocytes. Polymerase chain reaction (PC...
متن کاملVSX1 gene analysis in keratoconus
PURPOSE To screen the visual system homeobox 1 (VSX1) gene in keratoconus patients. METHODS The enntire coding region of VSX1, including intron-exon boundaries were amplified in keratoconus cases (n=50) and controls (n=50). All sequences were analyzed against the ensemble sequence (ENSG00000100987) for VXS1. RESULTS Sequencing analysis showed four alterations (p.A182A, p.R217H, p.P237P, and...
متن کاملAnalysis of the VSX1 gene in sporadic keratoconus patients from China
BACKGROUND Keratoconus normally presents as a sporadic disease. Although different studies have found sequence variants of the visual system homeobox 1 (VSX1) gene associated with keratoconus in humans, no research has detected such variants in sporadic keratoconus patients from China. To investigate the possibility of VSX1 being a candidate susceptibility gene for Chinese patients with sporadi...
