We report the detection of the 101-000 line of linear C3H2, an isomer of the ubiquitous cyclic C3H2, toward the sources W51E1/E2, W51D, and W49. The line is seen in absorption against the radio continuum of these sources. The column density of l-C3H2 is very low, with typical values of a few 1011 cm−2. The abundance ratio between the cyclic and linear isomers of C3H2 is found to be 3–5 in the s...

in view of the fundamental role of genetics in development of obesity, the present study aimed to investigate the single nucleotide polymorphism of some obesity-related genes among a subset of obese women living in tabriz, iran. for this purpose, 70 eligible obese women (aged 18-45 years) were genotyped for the uncoupling protein-1 (ucp-1) -3826a>g, ß3-adrenergic receptor (ß3adr) trp64arg, lept...

BACKGROUND Although over 60 non-syndromic deafness genes have been identified to date, the etiologic contribution of most deafness genes remained elusive. In this study, we addressed this issue by targeted next-generation sequencing of a large cohort of non-syndromic deaf probands. METHODS Probands with mutations in commonly screened deafness genes GJB2, SLC26A4 and MT-RNR1 were pre-excluded ...

many factors including genetic, environmental, and acquired are involved in breast cancer development across various societies. among all of these factors in families with a history of breast cancer throughout several generations, genetics, like predisposing genes to develop this disease, should be considered more. early detection of mutation carriers in these genes, in turn, can play an import...
