introduction: cryptorchidism has been proved to cause apoptosis in germ cells in respond to changes in the stimulation levels of specific physiological events. the purpose of this study was to determine whether treatment of bilateral cryptorchidism was associated with alterations in testicular gene expression. methods: to induce bilateral cryptorchid model, immature mice were anesthetized and a...

Plasma membrane H+-ATPase is a major integral membrane protein with a role in various physiological processes including abiotic stress response. To study the effect of NaCl on the expression pattern of a gene encoding the plasma membrane H+-ATPase, an experiment was carried out in a completely random design with three replications. A pair of specific primers was designed based on the sequence o...

background: the ectopic expression of receptor tyrosine kinase ror1 has been reported in patients with hematological malignancies such as chronic lymphocytic leukemia and acute lymphoblastic leukemia. here we report, for the first time, expression of ror1 gene in both tumor tissues and peripheral blood mononuclear cells (pbmc) from patients with renal cancer (rc). methods: in the current study,...

Introduction: One of the most important complications of exposure to noises is changes in the gene expression patterns. Irreversible damage to the inner ear, such as noise-induced hearing loss (NIHL), is caused by tissue damage and changes in the gene expressions in the auditory system. Changes in the GJB2 gene expression pattern lead to autosomal deafness at different loci. The present study a...

an agrobacterium-mediated transient gene expression assay was carried out in alfalfa (medicago sativa) leaves for expression of a chimeric gene encoding a part of capsid protein of foot and mouth disease virus called vp1. the plant leaves were transformed via agroinfiltration procedure. the presence of the foreign gene and its expression in transformed plants were evaluated by polymerase chain ...

an important aspect of microarray studies includes the prediction of patient survival based on their gene expression profile. to deal with the high dimensionality of this data, use of a dimension reduction procedure along with the survival prediction model is necessary. this study aimed to present a new method based on wavelet transform for survival relevant gene selection.the data included 204...
