in the present research, molecular detection of bovine leukocyte adhesion deficiency (blad) and complex vertebral malformation (cvm)in a population of iranian holstein cows has been carried outusing milk somatic cells by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism(pcr-rflp). the blad and cvm are monogenic and autosomal recessive heredity lethal syndrome in holstein-friesi...

Objective(s): To investigate the association of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors gamma (PPARG) with essential hypertension (EH) and additional role of gene– high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL) interaction. Materials and Methods:A total of 1640 patients with EH (806 males, 834 females), with a mean age of 52.5±12.6 years, were selec...

The structural property of a poly( dG-dC) or poly( dA-dT) nucleotide is investigated. At low force and room temperatures, the polymer takes on compact hairpin structures. An abrupt transition from hairpin to random coil occurs at certain critical forces, its high cooperativity is related to the unfavorable formation of hairpin and other kinds of looped structures. It is hence necessary to consi...

conventional methods for fungal identification in the clinical laboratory rely on morphological andphysiological tests. these tests often need several days or weeks to complete and are frequentlyunspecific. molecular identification mostly implies sequencing, which is relatively expensive andtime-consuming, as well as impractical for large numbers of isolates. the rolling circleamplification app...

background: breast cancer is the first leading cause of cancer-related death in women. pesticides which are excessively used in northern iran are one of the most important risk factors for breast cancer incidence. the cytochrome p450 1a1 (cyp1a1) is a key enzyme in xenobiotics metabolism and snps of its coding gene has been verified to be important in cancer susceptibility. the aim of this stud...

introduction: using addictive drugs can change the amount of neurotransmitters, especially dopamine and glutamate. glutamate has been known to trigger the relapse and tendency toward addictive drugs. the glutamate receptor ionotropic nmda type subunit 1 (grin1) contains the single- nucleotide polymorphism c1001g (rs11146020) and encodes n-methyl-d-aspartic acid (ndma) receptor subunit 1 (nr1). ...

background three single nucleotide polymorphisms (snps) near interleukin-28b (il-28b) gene were shown to be highly associated with treatment response (svr) in patients with chronic hepatitis c virus (hcv) infection. there is limited data about the role of single and combined il-28b polymorphisms in hcv-infected polish population. objectives this study's aim was to determine predictability of th...
