Introduction: Pain is valuable in diagnosis and also warning of the patients. Many molecular reagents are introduced which are related to pain. In this research, the pain-related genes are screened to identify the critical ones.  Methods: First, the pain-related genes were pulling out from the STRING database, and Cytoscape software was used to make the interactome unit. Then the central genes...

conclusions it seems that besides the variety and prevalence of blatem and blactx, enormous mechanisms such as porin and leaking systems (efflux pumps) are responsible for the information of the a. baumannii resistance to disinfectants. the study on an accurate consideration of the resistance in strains and other microorganisms is advised. results in the current study, 131 a. baumannii isolates...

in spite of their key role in various immunological processes occurring in the endometrium, t cells- especially + subtype- residing in this mucosal tissue, have not been extensively explored. we present here the profile of expressed genes for variable region of chain of t cell receptor (tcr) in normal endometrium as compared to peripheral blood. samples from endometrium were taken from norm...

blast (magnaporthe grisea) is the most important disease of rice in mazandaran province, north of iran, which causes severe damages annually on susceptible cultivars. tarom mahalli is a local aromatic cultivar with high cooking quality and marketability, but very susceptible to blast. to protect this cultivar and similar susceptible cultivars against rice blast, farmers have to use high amounts...

background: the purpose of this study was to describe the association of mthfr gene single nucleotide polymorphisms (c677t and a1298c) and maternal supplementary folate intake with orofacial clefts in the iranian population. methods: in this case-control study, peripheral venous blood was taken from 65 patients with orofacial clefts and 215 unaffected controls for dna extraction and kept in edt...

this study aims at molecular identification of salmonella infantis isolated from backyard chickens and the detection of their antibiotic resistance genes. a total of 46 salmonella-suspected samples isolated from backyard chickens of northern iran were collected. serotyping was done by the traditional method and then confirmed by pcr. antimicrobial susceptibility of the isolates against 13 antim...

the stripe (yellow) rust in wheat is one of the most important plant diseases in iran. since 1993 several epidemics have occurred in iran causing the breakdown of widely util-ized sources of resistance in wheat cultivars. twenty-seven pathotypes were identified during 2003 and 2004 in greenhouse tests. pathotypes 6e6a+, 6e22a+, 6e130a+, 6e134a+, 6e142a+, 6e158a+, 134e130a+ and 134e142a+ were mo...

background there is a potential risk for malignancy in patients with diabetes mellitus. theoretically, a noninvasive method for detection of precancerous changes can be conducted on oral exfoliated cell smears. objectives in this study, the immunocytochemistry of p53 in exfoliated oral mucosal cells in patients with type 2 diabetes was investigated. patients and methods oral mucosal smears were...

apple (malus×domestica borkh.) is the fourth fruit in importance and iran ranks fifth in apple production in the world. longevity of juvenility in apple extends breeding cycles and makes its breeding a tough job. to alleviate this barrier via genetic engineering, the genes involved in flowering and floral development of apple and their function must be identified and characterized. most of thes...

conclusions expression levels of 1,426 genes were significantly up-regulated in the mutant compared to wt. furthermore, 301 genes were down-regulated with false discovery rates (fdr) of < 0.001 and absolute value of log2 ratio of ≥ 1. results a total of 4,182,944 and 4,182,021 clean tags were obtained from the wt and a nonpathogenic mutant stain (bct89), respectively, and 10,410 differentially ...
