There is no functional annotation for the majority of the several hundreds of receptor-like kinases in plants. A direct way of inferring the function of these proteins is to study the phenotype that results from loss of function mutants such as T-DNA mutant lines. In this research a function (phenotype) to At2g37050 gene that encodes a receptor like kinase in Arabidopsis T-DNA line was...

Background The high effectiveness of vitrification, as a cryopreservation protocol, for human oocytes and embryos is shown, whereas data on human ovarian tissue are limited. This study aimed to assessment of follicular growth, ultrastructure, and apoptosis incidence in human ovarian tissue following vitrification/warming and after culture in the presence of LIF. MaterialsAndMethods Ovarian cort...

background and purpose: skin cancer is one of the most common types of cancer. several studies suggest a high incidence of skin cancer in most countries. timp-2 is the tissue inhibitor of matrix metalloproteinase and exist in both cancer and normal cells. the aim of this study was to investigate the expression of timp-2 gene in patients with skin cancer and evaluating the association between th...

Background: Ovarian tissue cryopreservation is a feasible method to preserve female reproductive potential, especially in young patients with cancer or in women at risk of premature ovarian failure. Vitrification has recently emerged as a new trend for biological specimen preservation. On the other hand, gene expression that changes during vitrification can influence oocyte maturation and need ...

Background: This study was set up to evaluate the effect of ovarian tissue slow freezing on in vitro growth and pattern of maturation genes expression in mouse preantral follicles encapsulated within alginate hydrogel. Materials and Methods: Ovaries of 12-14 days old female NMRI mice were randomly allocated into control and slow freezing groups. In slow freezing group, ovaries were equilibrated...

Differential Genes Expression of Blood Tissue Related to Pre-Calving Ketosis in Holstein cow using Transcriptomics Data

Objective(s): The useful and effective role of exercise program to prevent cardiac tissue apoptosis and fibrosis in ovariectomized type 2 diabetic (T2DM) rats (OVR.D) is well known. The current study aimed to investigate the simultaneous effects of T2DM and swimming plan on the expression of some apoptotic, anti-apoptotic biomarkers and glycogen changes in the cardiac ...

background: toll like receptors (tlrs) are one of the main components of the innate immune system. it has been reported that expression of these receptors are altered in the female reproductive tract (frt) during menstrual cycle. here we used a fallopian tube epithelial cell line (oe-e6/e7) to evaluate the effect of two sex hormones in modulating tlr expression. materials and methods: in this e...
