Brassinosteroids (BRs) are steroid hormones that regulate plant growth, development, and stress resistance. In this study, we evaluated the effect of agrochemicals on dark-induced hypocotyl elongation, which is regulated by BRs, to identify novel chemicals BR action. We found juvenile hormone agonist fenoxycarb inhibited elongation in Arabidopsis. Treatment with same class agonist, pyriproxyfen...

objective(s): the aim of this study was to investigate the methylation status and mrna expression levels of p15, death-associated protein kinase (dapk), and suppressor of cytokine signaling-1 (socs1) genes in multiple myeloma (mm). materials and methods: the bone marrow samples of 54 mm patients were collected and the methylation status of the p15, dapk, and socs1 gene promoter regions was dete...

conclusions some results of the correlation coefficients are not the same with visualization. the reason may be due to the small number of data. materials and methods in the foundation-application study, we constructed two-way gene networks using nonparametric methods, such as spearman’s rank correlation coefficient and blomqvist’s measure, and compared them with pearson’s correlation coefficie...
