conclusions according to our result, 1525g/a and 1595c/t were in strong linkage disequilibrium and the polymorphisms of the trail gene in the 3’ utr region were not associated with the outcome of hbv infection. results our data showed that genotypes 1525g/a and 1595c/t were in complete linkage disequilibrium and the genotype frequencies at the two positions were the same. no significant differe...

objective: it is a firm belief that blood transfusion is life-saving in many situations, but at the same time transfusion complications could be life-threatening. the possible effects of blood transfusion related immunomodulatory (trim) and its related mechanisms is one of the important debatable subjects in the field of blood transfusion medicine. one of the mechanisms through which transfus...

Purpose: To determine the effect of sevoflurane (SE) on neuronal apoptosis, and mechanism involved.Methods: Sixty healthy male Sprague-Dawley rats were assigned to control, model SE groups. Sham surgery was performed in control group, while middle cerebral artery infarction (MCAO) established group. The expression HO-1 mRNA determined by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR...

Introduction: Apoptosis dysregulation plays a substantial role in the pathophysiology of chronic inflammation and its related symptoms such as edema. Regulation of NF-ĸB activation is involved in apoptosis pattern change. The current study aimed at verifying the effects of local inflammation on edema and changes in apoptotic markers, and investigating the possible role of NF-ĸB in apoptosis pat...

background: in this study, we evaluated the incidence of apoptosis at the ultrastructural levels and expression of some apoptosis-related genes in vitrified human ovarian tissue just after warming. methods: human ovarian tissue biopsies from 23 women after caesarean section were transported to the laboratory within 2 hours, and then they were cut into small pieces. some pieces were vitrified an...

background: diabetes mellitus is associated with cognitive deficits in humans and animals. these deficits are paralleled by neurophysiological and structural changes in brain. in diabetic animals, impairments of spatial learning, memory, and cognition occur in association with distinct changes in hippocampus, a key brain area for many forms of learning and memory and are particularly sensitive ...

objective(s): the aim of this study was to determine the important molecules involved in apoptosis induction by opium in jurkat cell line. materials and methods: jurkat cells were incubated 48 hrs with2.86×10-5 g/ml concentration of opium and apoptosis as well as expression levels of related molecules weremeasured. results: our results demonstrated that 50.3±0.2 percent of opium treated jurkat ...

Background: Rosmarinic acid (RA) is a natural phenolic compound that acts as Fyn inhibitor by 53 homology modeling of the human structure. Therefore, apoptosis mechanism related to NF-κB signaling pathway induced RA in HepG2 was investigated. Methods: The cell growth, apoptosis, and proliferation regulated various concentrations were studied. proteins expression MMP-2, MMP-9, PI3K, AKT, NF-κB, ...
