Systems for the archival of musical documents digitally and development of digital music libraries are currently being researched and developed extensively. However, adapting these systems for the archival and retrieval of Malaysian music materials might not be as straightforward due to the distinct differences in musical structure and modes of non-Western music. This paper covers the motivatio...

Amaç: Enflamasyon ve ili?kili mikro RNA’lar (miRNA), Alzheimer hastal???n?n (AH) patogenezinde önemli rol oynamaktad?rlar. AH beyininde görülen miRNA’lar?n anlat?m profilindeki de?i?ikliklerin periferal kan mononükleer hücrelerine de yans?m?? olmas?, s?ras?nda enflamatuar bir göstergesi olabilir. Bu çal??mada, hastalar?n?n hem lökositlerinde plazmalar?nda belirli enflamatuvar (mir-146a, mir-144...

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small single-stranded RNA molecules that play an essential role in the regulation of gene expression and cell physiology. Gene rearrangements occurring in the miRNA sequence are associated with cancer. The IBTK genetic locus is located in the genomic sequence 6q14.1 that undergoes chromosomal aberration in lymphoproliferative disorders. The IBTK gene encodes the proteins ...

BACKGROUND The pathogenesis of pre-eclampsia (PE) is incompletely understood. The placenta is considered to play a key role in this disease. Recent research showed that many microRNAs (miRNAs) are expressed in human placenta. Our aim in this study was to determine differential expression of miRNAs in placenta with severe PE, and normal placenta. METHODS Differential expression of miRNAs in pl...

Medulloblastomas (MBs) are the most common brain tumors in children. Some are thought to originate from cerebellar granule neuron progenitors (GNPs) that fail to undergo normal cell cycle exit and differentiation. Because microRNAs regulate numerous aspects of cellular physiology and development, we reasoned that alterations in miRNA expression might contribute to MB. We tested this hypothesis ...

BACKGROUND Identifying non-invasive and reliable blood-derived biomarkers for early detection of acute cellular rejection in heart transplant recipients is of great importance in clinical practice. MicroRNAs are small molecules found to be stable in serum and their expression patterns reflect both physiological and underlying pathological conditions in human. METHODS We compared a group of he...

Lung cancer is the most common cause of cancer‑associated mortality worldwide, and the number of cases is increasing annually. Several studies have shown that microRNAs (miRNAs) control proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis in various cell types, and increasing evidence indicates the presence of aberrant miRNA expression profiles and unique miRNA signaling pathways in several types of c...
