Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleC-Reactive Protein and Serum Procalcitonin Levels as Markers of Bacterial Upper Respiratory Tract InfectionsDiamantis P. Kofteridis, George Samonis, Alexander D. Karatzanis et al.Problem statement: Upper Respiratory Tract Infections (URTIs) are the most frequent of the community with major social and financial impact. Hence, early and proper diagnosis is of utmost importance. Biomarkers such as the circulating levels of Procalcitonin (PCT) have been shown to be elevated in systemic bacterial infections, but remain relatively low in viral infections and inflammatory diseases and have … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 7,135 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleQTL Mapping Using Multiple Markers SimultaneouslyD. Kolbehdari, J.A.B. RobinsonMethods for detecting and locating a single QTL within a 10 cM region of DNA using 10 equally spaced SNP markers were compared. The QTL was assumed to be bi-allelic and located between markers 5 and 6. Monte Carlo simulation of a granddaughter design with 30 sires and 400 sons was used. Linear regression nested within sire using either two … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2007 · 7,110 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleAssessment of Genetic Purity of Parental Lines of Hybrid Rice Using DNA-Based MarkersSunil Bhavsar, Twinkle Solanki, Suchita Amin, Neeru JainAssessment of hybrid seed genetic purity is one of the most important quality control parameters in hybrid seed production. With the objective of replacing the GOT with DNA based assays, Cytoplasmic Male Sterile (CMS), restorer and hybrid lines have been screened by means of microsatellite and Sequence Tagged Site (STS) markers. Cytoplasmic Male Sterile (CMS) lines often get contaminated with … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 2 · 13 Jun 2015 · 7,436 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleTHE IMPACT OF ANTIOXIDANTS ON INFLAMMATION AND OXIDATIVE STRESS MARKERS IN OSTEOARTHRITIS RAT MODEL: SCANNING ELECTRON MICROSCOPE INSIGHTSEl Hassan Heidar, FareedF Al Faya, Waleed N. Hassan et al.Osteoarthritis (OA) is characterized by degradation of matrix and destruction of articular cartilage. Articular chondrocytes are solely responsible for the production and maintenance of the extracellular matrix. Therefore, chondrocyte disruption is implicated in cartilage degeneration. Numerous studies have shown that antioxidant treatments are promising therapeutics in cases of OA. This study was designedto examine whether vitamin E protects rat articular … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 19 May 2014 · 7,616 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleCOMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF INTER SIMPLE SEQUENCE REPEATS AND SIMPLE SEQUENCE REPEATS MARKERS: GENETIC ANALYSIS OF DESCHAMPSIA CESPITOSA POPULATIONS GROWING IN METAL CONTAMINATED REGIONS IN CANADAK.K. Nkongolo, S. Gervais, P. Michael, Y. ZhouComparative studies conducted on the genetic variation of metal-tolerant populations and their non-metal-tolerant counterparts have been performed on numerous species using isozyme markers. Analysis of genetic differences among plant populations growing in heavy metal-contaminated and uncontaminated regions are limited. The main objectives of the present study were to compare ISSR and microsatellite markers in assessing genetic variation in D. cespitosa … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 8 Apr 2014 · 7,286 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleRelationship between Fetuin-A and Systemic Lupus Erythematosus as a Predictor Marker for AtherosclerosisOsama F. Mosa, Ibrahim H. Mohamad, Magdi M. SalamaProblem statement: Associations between serum levels of fetuin-A, C3 complement, calcium × phosphate product and calcification risk index and lipid profile in SLE patients were established. However, the mechanism of accelerated atherosclerosis accompanied with SLE remains elusive. We therefore turned to investigate the association between Fetuin-A, disease activity and accelerated atherosclerosis in patients with SLE. Approach: Serum blood samples were … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 15 Sep 2012 · 7,777 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleGenetic Diversity of Some Saudi Barley (Hordeum Vulgare L.) Landraces Based on Two Types of Molecular MarkersMohamed Abdel Hamid Mohamed El-Awady, Adel Ahmed El-Sayed El-Tarras, Salah El-Din El-AssalProblem statement: Very little is known about the genetic diversity and morphological variability present in barley landrace in KSA, a country experiencing loss of biodiversity because of replacement of landraces with modern landraces. Approach: The molecular markers RAPD and ISSR were used as an efficient tools to estimate the intra-and inter-cultivar polymorphism among six barley KSA landraces collected from different … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 5 · 12 Mar 2012 · 7,502 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleCorrelation of Some Tumor Markers Between Serum and Saliva of Patients with Breast CancerHuthaifa Tarawneh, Omar AtroozBreast cancer, which affects 36% of all female oncological patients, is the most frequent cancer in the world among women. Since routine laboratory evaluation of serum can be stressful for patients, it is critical to comprehend the features and limitations of salivary test methods in order to achieve an accurate diagnosis of breast cancer. The purpose of the study is … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 1 · 12 Oct 2024 · 4,901 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleGenetic Diversity of the Beet Distributed in Armenia Using Protein MarkersTatevik Aloyan, Manvel Badalyan, Andreas MelikyanThe genetic resources of plants and animals are the wealth of every country. They are a valuable starting material in the breeding processes of cultivated plants and farm animals. In order to improve the existing varieties of crops and obtain new, valuable varieties, it is very important to document, preserve and enrich their gene pool, while preserving local varieties and … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 23, Issue 4 · 11 Sep 2023 · 4,629 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleGenetic Diversity of Common Wild Wheat Species in Armenia Using ISSR MarkersManvel Badalyan, Tatevik Aloyan, Varya Dilanyan et al.Armenia is one of the primary genealogical centers of numerous crops, the wild relatives of many of which are still found in Armenia today.
