conclusions our study indicated that ace-d and vegf-g alleles can be an independent risk factor for microalbominuria in t2dm patients. results a total of 255 consecutive patients with t2dm and microalbuminuria (group a) and 235 patients with t2dm and normoalbuminuria (group b) were included in the study. in univariate analysis, the groups were statistically similar for all variables, except for...

To monitor and control the Japanese orange fly Bactrocera tsuneonis (Miyake) (Diptera: Tephritidae), it is important to determine their dispersal ability. Therefore, genetic structure of this species, we developed microsatellite markers at 17 loci for B. tsuneonis. A total 80 adult females males randomly collected from abandoned orchards in Oita Yamaguchi Prefectures, western part Japan, were u...

Relevance and methods . For molecular genetic analysis, samples taken from Romanov sheep in micro-populations of the Yaroslavl region ear by pluck were isolated. Polymorphism genes type 3 protein that inhibits insulin-like growth factor (IGFBP-3), hormone (Gh), calpastatin (CAST) was studied. A selection assessment live weight indicators age periods, depending on genotype, carried out. Results ...

b-lactoglobulin (coded by the b-lg gene) is the major milk whey protein in ruminants. studies have shown that this protein is polymorphic in many breeds of sheep as a result of a single base pair substitution in the b-lg gene that also gives rise to rsai restriction fragment length polymorphism (rflp). blood samples were collected from 391 animals belonging to 5 iranian and 6 russian sheep bree...

Diabetic dyslipidemia is one of the leading causes of coronary artery disease (CAD) death. Genetic and environmental factors play an important role in the development of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and dyslipidemia. The present study was aimed to investigate the association of ACE (rs4646994), FABP2 (rs1799883), MTHFR (rs1801133) and FTO (rs9939609) genetic polymorphism in T2DM with dyslipi...

The prevalence of a genetic polymorphism(s) at codon 268 in the cytochrome b gene, which is associated with failure of atovaquone-proguanil treatment, was analyzed in 227 Plasmodium falciparum parasites from western Kenya. The prevalence of the wild-type allele was 63%, and that of the Y268S (denoting a Y-to-S change at position 268) mutant allele was 2%. There were no pure Y268C or Y268N mutan...

intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (icam-1) lys469glu (k469e) polymorphism and gly 241arg (g241r) polymorphism might play important roles in cancer development and progression. however, the results of previous studies are inconsistent. the aim of this study was to evaluate the association between icam-1 k469e and g241r polymorphisms and the risk of cancer by meta-analysis.a comprehensive literat...
