The goal of the paper was to identify  lactoglobulin gene polymorphism and analyse of genotype structure in population Slovak spotted breed. The  lactoglobulin (LGB) expressed in milk and is important in the evaluation of milk production potential and butterfat and protein content. LGB is localized on bovine chromosome 11. The AA genotype of LGB is associated with higher milk yield, the BB ge...

the genetic polymorphism of some genes related to meat production in three egyptian sheep breeds (barki, rahmani and osseimi) was studied. the candidate genes were: calpastatin, myostatin, diacylglycerol-acyltransferase1, insulin-like growth factor binding protein-3 and booroola fecundity gene. the technique applied was the restriction fragment length polymorphism for the polymerase chain react...

Background and Objective: Host genetic factors such as cytokine gene polymorphisms as well as Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection have been found to be associated with gastric cancer risk . Interleukin 1 is a pro-inflammatory cytokine involved in H. pylori-induced gastric inflammation. Therefore, w...

multiple sclerosis (ms) is a chronic inflammatory disorder of the central nervous system, with a complex etiology that includes a strong genetic component. the chromosome 19q 13 region surrounding the apolipoprotein e (apoe) gene has shown consistent evidence of involvement in ms. in a cross-sectional study, to show the apoe genotype and allele frequency in the ms population of iran in comparis...

angiotensin i-converting enzyme (ace) gene polymorphism; genotype dd or d allele may be involved with an increased susceptibility to type 2 diabetes and diabetic nephropathy (dn). we examined the frequency of ace gene polymorphism in 170 patients (85 type 2 diabetes with nephropathy and 85 without it) in tehran, iran. dna was extracted from the white blood cells and the i/d polymorphism of the ...

the aim of the present study was to screen the genotype profile of bovine kappa-casein gene among frieswal (hf × sahiwal) crossbred cattle developed in india. a total number of two hundred frieswal cows were evaluated for hinfi rflp based genotyping of kappa-casein gene. we observed that only two genotypes (aa and ab) exist among the studied population with the genotype frequency of 0.58 (n=117...

background: endometriosis is a female health disorder that occurs when cells from the lining of the uterus grow in other areas of the body. the cause of endometriosis is unknown. objective: the purpose of this study was to investigate tp53 gene codon 72 polymorphism in women with endometriosis and compared it with healthy samples in isfahan. materials and methods: we undertook a case-control st...
