VSX1 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 کاملA Novel Missense Mutation in the ALDH13 Gene Causes Anophthalmia in Two Unrelated Iranian Consanguineous Families
Anophthalmia or microphthalmia (A/M) is a rare group of congenital/developmental ocular malformations, characterized by absent or small eye within the orbit affecting one or both eyes. It has complex etiology with chromosomal, monogenic with high heterogeneity, and environmental causes. We performed genome SNP-array analysis followed by autozygosity mapping and sequencing in the members o...
متن کاملNo VSX1 gene mutations associated with keratoconus.
PURPOSE To determine whether mutations of the VSX1 gene play a pathogenetic role in the development of keratoconus (KTCN). METHODS DNA extraction, PCR amplification, and direct sequencing of the VSX1 gene were performed in 100 unrelated patients with diagnoses of clinical and topographic features of KTCN. RESULTS Of the four previously identified presumed pathogenic mutations in the VSX1 ge...
متن کاملthe analysis of the role of the speech acts theory in translating and dubbing hollywood films
از محوری ترین اثراتی که یک فیلم سینمایی ایجاد می کند دیالوگ هایی است که هنرپیش گان فیلم میگویند. به زعم یک فیلم ساز, یک شیوه متأثر نمودن مخاطب از اثر منظوره نیروی گفتارهای گوینده, مثل نیروی عاطفی, ترس آور, غم انگیز, هیجان انگیز و غیره, است. این مطالعه به بررسی این مسأله مبادرت کرده است که آیا نیروی فراگفتاری هنرپیش گان به مثابه ی اعمال گفتاری در پنج فیلم هالیوودی در نسخه های دوبله شده باز تولید...
15 صفحه اولStudying VSX1 Gene Mutations in Patients with Keratoconus of Chaharmahal and Bakhtiari Province, Iran
Background & Aims: Keratoconus (KC) is an eye disorder in which the cornea is swollen, thinned and deformed. Despite extensive studies, the pathophysiological processes and genetic etiology of KC is unknown. The disease incidence is approximately 1 in 2000 and is the most common cause of corneal transplantation in the US. Many genes are involved in the disease, but evidence suggests a major rol...
