β-thalassemia, a monogenic autosomal recessive disorder, is prevalent in middle east, particularly in iran. in iran, near to 20 mutations in the β-globin gene are introduced as common mutations with varying incidence frequencies in each city. therefore, detection and screening for couples at high risk can help to solve the problems of this disease. in this study, optimized genotyping of two com...

This study was conducted in order to investigate the association between the single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs2305957 G/A and recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) in a group of Palestinian women residing in Gaza strip. A retrospective case-control study was carried out during the period of May to August 2015. A total of 380 females including 190 recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) patients and 190 c...

Abstract Objective The NUDT15 variants impact thiopurine dose selection in acute lymphoblastic leukemia patients. ability to rapidly detect is important clinical practice. This study aims develop a simple polymerase chain reaction (PCR) procedure for detecting Vietnamese Materials and Methods Sanger sequencing was used determine from 200 We designed primers optimized the PCR detection of wild-t...

Background: The pathogenesis of migraine involves immune-mediated mechanisms in the vascular endothelium. Toll like receptor 4 (TLR-4) is a signaling receptor of innate immunity which plays a role in various neuropathologies related to neuron inflammation. Objective: This case/control study is aimed to investigate whether TLR- 4 896A/G variation is related to migraine headaches in an Iranian po...

Due to the genetic mutation (fa) in gene encoding for leptin receptor, homozygous Zucker rats (fa−/−) develop excessive adiposity and become an experimental animal model obesity metabolic-related diseases research. Based on tetra-primer amplification refractory system-polymerase chain reaction (ARMS-PCR), we developed a method quickly genotype with mutated fa allele from their wildtype litterma...

Background: Recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) is a common problem among couples, and acquired thrombophilia is the well-known etiology of RPL. The aim of this study was to establish the association between inherited thrombophilic gene polymorphisms and RPL. Methods: This case-control study was conducted on 50 women with unexplained RPL and 50 parous women with no history of miscarriage (age range...
