Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGenetic Diversity of Three Indigenous Cattle Breeds Reared in BeninMahugnon Santoze Adido, Mathew Gitau Gicheha, Mahougnon Camus Adoligbe, Kodzo AtchouLivestock production is an important component of the Benin economy contributing an upward of 25% of the agricultural Gross Domestic Products (GDP). Indigenoues cattle sector contributes more to the GDP compared to other livestock species. Despite the economic role played by the sector, there has been little or no efforts to genetically improve the indigenous cattle in the country. Recently, … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 16 Mar 2019 · 8,596 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMolecular Detection of Follicle Stimulating Hormone Receptor Polymorphisms and Luteinizing Hormone Gene Variations in Primary and Secondary Iraqi Infertile WomenNoor Basim Naser, Dr. Ezeddin Atia Albayyar, Dr. Susan Abed ZaidanThe current study aimed to determine the role of hormonal disturbances in infertility, moreover assessing variations at the molecular level that could affect this disease. The study examined 90 blood samples, 30 patients with primary infertility, 30 patients with secondary infertility and 30 healthy women as control. FSH and LH were measured using Electrochemiluminescence assay. DNA was isolated for molecular … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 4 · 15 Nov 2018 · 7,553 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe -863 TNF-α Polymorphism and Primary Open Angle Glaucoma in EgyptiansWalaa Bayoumie Abdulwahhab El Gazzar, Shaymaa Mohamed Abd El Rahman, Mohamed Nagy Elmohamady et al.Growing evidence indicates that TNF-alpha is involved in the pathogenesis of POAG in several ways, primarly by induction of retinal ganglion cells apoptosis and therefore optic nerve degeneration. TNF-alpha and POAG relationship has been studied at the genetic level with variable results in different populations. The transcription rate and the release of the TNF-alpha cytokine have been reported to be … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 13, Issue 2 · 1 Jun 2017 · 7,356 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssociation of High-Affinity FcεRI-β intron 2 for IgE Gene Polymorphism and Atopic Diseases in an Algerian PopulationDahbia Ines Dahmani, Ikhlass Haj Salem, Jamila Chakir et al.Atopy is characterized by the production of a high level of IgE in response to common allergens. We examined the RsaI-in2 polymorphism of the FcεRI-β gene and its association with atopic asthma and comorbidity. The study population included 77 atopic asthmatics and 77 non-atopic, non-allergic and non-asthmatic controls. Atopic asthma was confirmed by the skin prick test and by IgE … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 4 · 1 Nov 2017 · 7,444 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFrequency of Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms of the SLCO1B1 Gene in Slavic Population of Central EuropeMichaela Mikulová, Veronika Kramarova, Ján ChandogaThe organic anion transporting polypeptide 1B1 (encoded by SLCO1B1 gene) is involved in the active cellular influx of diverse endogenous compounds and several drugs, such as HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors (statins). Two common polymorphisms c.388A>G and c.521T>C in SLCO1B1 alter transport activity of this transporter and play an important role in the pharmaceutical response to many drugs. The aim of our … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 4 · 11 Dec 2016 · 7,308 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLeukemia Inhibitory Factor (LIF) Gene Polymorphism and its Impact on Reproductive Traits of PigsM. A. Leonova, L. V. Getmantseva, V. N. Vasilenko et al.The purpose of this study was to determine the frequencies of alleles and genotypes of the Leukemia Inhibitory Factor (LIF) gene (ID: 399503) in Landrace, Large White and Duroc pigs in Russia and to evaluate the impact on productive traits of pigs. Polymorphism was genotyped using PCR-RFLP method. In the course of studies we observed a different distribution of allele … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 18 Oct 2015 · 7,404 accessesView PDFCite
