gene therapy as a modern therapeutic approach has not yet advanced to a globally-approved therapeutic approach. lack of adequate reliable gene delivery system seems to be one of the major reasons from the pharmaceutical biotechnology point of view. main obstacles delaying successful application of human gene therapy are presented in this review. the unique advantages of non-biological gene carr...

Mycoplasma synoviae (MS) is a pathogen responsible for respiratory and locomotor disorders and causes major economic losses in poultry industry. Early and accurate diagnosis of MS infection plays a major role in control of the infection. This study was conducted to characterize Iranian field isolates of MS isolated from broiler chickens of West Azarbaijan province (Northwest of Iran), ...

The success of the Human Genome Project (HGP) has provided a blueprint for the approximately 20,000 gene-encoded proteins potentially active in all of the hundreds of cell types that make up the human body. Yet we still have limited knowledge about a majority of the gene-encoded proteins which are the “building blocks of life” and “cellular machinery”. It is estimated that for nearly half of th...

Background: The major effects of regular exercise on diabetes mellitus are glycemic status improvement and amelioration of cardiovascular dysfunctions. This research examines whether moderate-intensity aerobic exercise can change the gene expression of metalloproteinase-2 and angiostatin in diabetic rats' heart tissue. Materials & Methods: In this experimental study, thirty Wistar rats were ca...

Background: Staphylococcal food poisoning (SFP) is one of the most common food-borne diseases worldwide resulting from contamination by preformed S. aureus enterotoxins and milk considered to be a major source SFP. This study aimed at PCR based detection its enterotoxigenic genes in raw products. Methods: A total 300 samples products were collected randomly Aizawl district Mizoram subjected phe...

the tlr4 gene structure as the main receptor for lipopolysaccharide recognition of gram-negative bacteria was investigated in two strains of iranian commercial arian line and west azerbaijan native chicks and its expression was studied in some major organs. blood samples of the 120 birds were taken and total dnas extracted. then, the target gene was sequenced using four pairs of primers on four...
