Introdution: Lipoxygenase enzyme is responsible for biosynthesis of leukotrienes that possess various pharmacological effects in the body. The beneficial therapeutic effects of lipoxygenase inhibitors have been proved in some diseases such as asthma, cancer and Alzheimer’s disease. So, the lipoxygenase inhibitors could be used in the treatment of some diseases and pathological conditions. In th...

Molecular epidemiology refers to the use of molecular tools in assessing the status of a cycle of a disease in a specific population. Currently, easy, fast, and high performance molecular tools are widely used in identifying parasites in clinical and biological samples. The aim of this study was to review molecular tools for better understanding of parasitic infection in taxonomic and epidemiol...

Our understanding of the pathogenesis of endocrine disorders increase rapidly by genetic studies at the molecular level. Common endocrine disorders such as diabetes mellitus, obesity, osteoporosis, dyslipidemia and cancer follow the multifactorial model in the genetic aspect. This review tries to clarify the approach in molecular studies of such diseases for clinicians in different specialties....

Giardia lamblia (G. lamblia) is one of most common intestinal parasites that infect a wide range of vertebrates including human, farm, and wild animals. Molecular studies indicate G. lamblia as a complex species, consisting of eight genetic assemblages (A to H). Recently, giardiasis has been identified as a zoonotic parasitic disease. The goal of this narrative study was to review the epidem...
