Background: Adipose tissue is a main source for isolation of equine mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) at different ages. It seems that characteristics of adipose-derived MSCs especially gene expression profile are changing along with age increase. A proper reference gene is required for normalizing data in gene expression analysis by qRT-PCR. This study aimed to evaluate whether GAPDH has a stable ...

background bone marrow and adipose tissue are two main sources of mesenchymal stem cells (mscs). some of studies suggest that there are some differences in gene expression profile of mscs-derived from various tissues. to investigate gene expression profile by qrt-pcr, an appropriate reference gene with stable expression level should be chosen for normalizing data.  this study was designed to ev...

conclusions the results revealed, the specific primers that amplified the ente gene were able to amplify the staphylococcal enterotoxin-like toxin type p gene. the specific primers for the entp gene were amplified a fragmented gene (700 bp) showed 100% homology with entp reference gene and also 80% homology with enta and ente genes. results the pcr amplification method was optimized for entp ge...

esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (escc) is a deadly cancer with poor prognosis. in this regard, early diagnosis is of vital importance to cure the tumor in its early stages. novel cancer diagnostic and therapeutic approaches have been recently introduced based on micrornas (mirnas). also, accurate normalization using appropriate reference genes is a critical step in mirna expression studies. ...

objective: understanding gene expression variations by using rna transcript analysis methods during hepatic viral protein interactions with the ifn pathway in hepatic cell lines has recently gained importance. one of the most powerful techniques in gene expression quantification is quantitative real-time rt-pcr. reference genes used as normalizer in this method may be affected across various ex...

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...

background and objectives: mycoplasma arthritidis mitogen (mam) superantigen has been shown to induce chronic arthritis, which resembles human rheumatoid arthritis (ra) in a rodent model. however, its role as a causative agent in human ra is not well understood yet. the aim of this study was to investigate the presence of mam superantigen gene in the synovial fluid (sf) of ra patients. material...

objective: in this project, our aim was to construct a novel expressing vector harboring a new sequence from overlapping region of ns3 gene of hcv from infected iranian patient. materials and methods: the partial ns3 (pns3) gene was amplified by nested-rt-pcr method using sera of hcv infected patients harboring genotype 1a. after purification and cloning the pns3 into ta-cloning vector, the be...
