Background: Although testicular tissue cryopreservation could be advantageous for fertility preservation in cancerous children, the possibility of apoptosis incidence should not be ignored. Our aim was evaluation of the apoptosis incidence in mouse testicular tissue after vitrification and short-term culture. Materials and Methods: Testes of 7days old NMRI male mice were isolated, divided and d...

Aims: Mustard gas is an alkalizing substance that can lead to damage to DNA and intracellular enzymes. The aim of this study was to investigate the expression of CXCL10 in chemically-injured veterans’ lung tissue.  Materials & Methods: This case-control study was done on 16 lung paraffin blocks of individuals exposed to mustard gas and 7 lungs paraffin blocks not-exposed people as...

Background and Objective: Dysregulation of long-term expression of non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) has a potential role in progressive brain disorders such as Alzheimer's disease. This study aimed to analyze the apoptosis and expression of 51A and NAT-Rad18 lncRNAs and their target genes in brain tissue and peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of the rat model of AD, before and after memantine ...

background: early detection is a key to survival for gastric cancer. molecular markers such as mirna (microrna) can have great importance in the early diagnosis of gastric cancer. expression of mir-21 and mir-221 are deregulated in many types of human cancers. this study aimed to investigate the differences in mirna expression patterns within the iranian population. methods: total rna was extra...

background: breast cancer is one of the most common cancers in the world, particularly in iran. there are many genomic and molecular factors that cause the occurrence of breast cancer. many markers are associated with tumor invasiveness. matrix metalloproteinase includes a family of zinc-dependent endopeptidases that degrade various components of the extracellular matrix and basement membrane. ...

Abstract Integrating gene expression across tissues and cell types is crucial for understanding the coordinated biological mechanisms that drive disease characterize homoeostasis. However, traditional multi-tissue integration methods either cannot handle uncollected or rely on genotype information, which often unavailable subject to privacy concerns. Here we present HYFA (hypergraph factorizati...

Background: Gastric cancer (GC) is one of the most prevalent cancers with a high rate of mortality in the world. In recent years, microRNAs (miRNAs) have been proposed to be involved in GC development. In this study, we aimed at investigating differential expression level of miR-155-5p, miR-15a, miR-15b, and miR-186 in GC. Methods: For this research, we used qPCR to investigate miR-15b, miR-155...
