Article history: Received 5 May 2017 Accepted 5 May 2017 Available online 5 May 2017 in providing earlier diagnoses. However, the sensitivity of these assays may limit the effectiveness of these methods and thereby underrepresent the prevalence of infections such as KSHV and EBV in the human population. Currently, the most common method is the detection of antibodies produced in response to viral infection (i.e. seropositivity). Regardless, the robustness and stability of miRNAs makes

Evaluation of Extracellular Circulating Human MicroRNA-197 as a Target Biomarker in Patients with Coronary Artery Disease
Background: Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) refers to the reduction or blockage of all or part of the coronary arteries due to the process of atherosclerosis or the presence of a clot. The aim of this study was to investigate the association of serum miR-197 as a diagnostic index in patients with coronary artery disease. Methods: In this study, 100 patients with CAD were selected. Extraction of...
متن کاملCancer virotherapy: Targeting cancer cells by microRNA mechanism for selective replication of oncolytic viruses in these cells
Cancer, as one of the most serious public health problems, is the second-leading cause of death in the world after cardiovascular disease. The number of patients and the resulting mortality are increasing worldwide; therefore, early diagnosis, prevention, and effective treatment of cancer are very important. Current treatments such as chemotherapy and radiation therapy are often non-selective a...
متن کاملP-97: Parthenogenetic Activation of Mouse Oocyte Using Calcium Ionophore in The Presence of Different Concentrations of Extracellular Calcium
Background: Parthenogenetic activation is a possible way to produce homogeneous embryos with the some ploidy. Probably such embryos could be used in other areas of biotechnology. Calcium signals are known as important regulators of oocyte activation. Extracellular calcium is required for initiation of meiotic resumption and development. Calcium ionophore A23187 is known to elevate intracellular...
متن کاملPresence of Coronavirus, Enterovirus and Adenovirus in Municipal Wastewater as Indicators of the Prevalence of Associated Viral Infections in the Community
Background and purpose: Adenoviruses and enteroviruses as intestinal viruses are detected in wastewater. Fecal shedding of 2019 novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) has been reported in some studies. Therefore, determining the presence of these viruses in wastewater is important to maintain public health and helps in predicting and preventing viral infections in a community. Materials and methods: I...
متن کاملCellular SRC kinases and dsRNA dependent protein kinase (PKR) play key role in intracellular viral (CVB3) replication
SRC kinases and PKR are intracellular protein kinases, which play key roles in intracellular viral replication. In this research, the effect of SRC kinase inhibition and PKR activation and inhibition on replication of coxsakievirus (CVB3), an entrovirus of the family picornaviridae – causative agents of fatal myocarditis, was studied. Vero and Hela cells were cultured and infected with CVB3 in ...
