the aim of this study was to determine antibiotic resistance genes, phylogenetic groups and anti-microbial resistance patterns of escherichia coli isolates from fecal samples of healthy pet cats in kerman city. ninety e. coli isolates were recovered from obtained rectal swabs. antibiotic resistance pattern of the isolates against seven selected antibiotic was determined using disc diffusion met...

background: avian pathogenic escherichia coli (apec), which is the causative agent of colibacillosis, harbors several putative virulence genes. an important trait of apec for both poultry and public health is antibiotic resistance. objectives: in the present study, some potential virulence genes of apecs isolated from northeast of iran and their resistance to the quinolones antibiotics were stu...

Real time-qPCR is the most reliable method for evaluation of mRNA expression levels. However, to obtain accurate results, selection of suitable reference genes is necessary for normalizing the real-time qPCR data. The aim of this research was to validate the expression stability of three potential reference genes (ACTB, GAPDH and UXT) in milk somatic cells of Holstein dairy cattle under differe...

Lymphomas are solid tumors of immune system and Non-Hodgkin Lymphomas (NHL) is the most prevalent lymphomas; with wide ranges of histological and clinical features, it is so difficult to identify them. Herein, various bioinformatics tools (such as gene differential expressions, epigenetics and protein analysis) employed to find new treatment approach for NHL based on gene expression variation b...

background: members of the eukaryotic hsp90 family function as important molecular chaperones in the assembly, folding and activation of cellular signaling in development. two hsp90 genes, hsp90 alpha and hsp90 beta, have been identified in fish and homeothermic vertebrates but not in poikilothermic vertebrates. in the present study, the expression of hsp90 alpha and hsp90 beta genes in xenopus...

cold stress during the beginning of the season usually causes damage to rice plants in the north of iran. in this study, the expression of four genes namely osp5cs2, osttp1, oscoin and oslti6a, was studied in 14-day-old seedlings of a cold tolerance pr genotype and a cold sensitive hashemi variety during cold stress (5°c for 24h) by means of differential display method. pcr products were quanti...

Objective(s): microRNAs are small non-coding molecules that regulate gene expression in various biological processes. T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) is a malignancy accompanied with genetic aberrations and accounts for 20% of children’s and adult’s ALL. Notch signaling pathway dysregulation occurs in 60% of T-ALL cases. In the present study, we aimed to de...
