Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleRelationship between Anti-Ds-DNA Antibodies and Abnormal Kidney Function Tests in Patients with Lupus NephritisFalah Salim Manhal, Hawra'a Adnan MohammedThe majority of patients with Lupus Nephritis (LN) usually have abnormal findings of kidney function tests. Severe glomerular damage may be observed in some patients and requires prompt therapeutic interventions. High titer levels of anti-ds-DNA antibodies may correlate to some extent with disease activity in lupus nephritis patients. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the relationship between anti-ds-DNA … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 12, Issue 2 · 21 May 2016 · 9,076 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleContrasting Effects of Metal Contaminations and Soil Liming on Cations Exchange Capacity and Global DNA Methylation in Betula papyrifera Populations from a Mining RegionGabriel Theriault, Kabwe NkongoloThe Greater Sudbury Region in Northern Ontario (Canada) has been one of the most contaminated regions in the world. Soil liming with dolomitic limestone applications has decreased significantly the level of soil acidity resulting in forest regeneration. This reclamation process does not affect the level of soil metal contamination but results in metals availability decrement. The coping mechanisms of birch … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 2 · 11 Apr 2016 · 7,535 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleVariability of Chloroplast DNA of Extranuclear Sunflower MutantsMarkin Nicolay, Aieksandr Usatov, Maria Logacheva et al.A comparative analysis of full-genome sequences of chloroplast DNA (cpDNA) of the original inbred line 3629 and three extranuclear mutants, which were obtained by the method of mutagenesis induced with N-nitroso-N-methylurea (NMU) and characterized by different level of chlorophyll insufficiency (en:chlorina-7-yellow-green leaves; chlorophyll content (a + b)-67.8% with respect to the line 3629, variegated-10-leaves with white zones; chlorophyll content (a … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 26 Mar 2016 · 7,269 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleBIS-CATTLE: A Web Server for Breed Identification using Microsatellite DNA MarkersSarika Jaiswal, Sandeep Kumar Dhanda, M. A. Iquebal et al.Domestic cow, Bos taurus is one of the important species selected by humans for various traits, viz. milk yield, meat quality, draft ability, resistance to disease and pests and social and religious reasons. Since cattle domestication from Neolithic (8,000-10,000 years ago) today the population has reached 1.5 billion and further it’s likely to be 2.6 billion by 2050. High magnitude … …Current Research in Bioinformatics, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 23 Jan 2016 · 9,310 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 titleDNA-MARKERS OF SUNFLOWER RESISTANCE TO THE DOWNY MILDEW (PLASMOPARA HALSTEDII)A. V. Usatov, A. I. Klimenko, K. V. Azarin et al.One of the areas of biotechnology sunflower is the development and testing of DNA markers of important agronomic traits and in particular markers of resistance to downy mildew. Resistance of 16 Rf-lines of sunflower to the races 330 and 710 of Plasmopara halstedii has been studied. Genotyping of these lines was carried out using 9 STS-markers of three Pl-loci, Pl5, … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 24 Jul 2014 · 7,423 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleIn-Vivo Evaluation of Hexavalent Chromium Induced DNA Damage by Alkaline Comet Assay and Oxidative Stress in Catla catlaKantha Deivi Arunachalam, Sathesh Kumar Annamalai, Jaya Krishna KuruvaIn the present study, the acute toxicity of Chromium in fingerlings of Catla catla, an Indian major carp, was evaluated with renewal bioassay method. In vivo studies were designed to assess the extent of Micronucleus Assay, Comet Assay under the exposure of common heavy-metal compounds, namely, Chromium Nitrate, using Catla catla (2n = 20), as a test model.

Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleMolecular Characterization of Goats Using Random Amplified Polymorphic DnaNandani Kumari, L. B. Singh, Subodh KumarBlack Bengal goat is a very valuable goat breed in India. The present investigation was proposed to be undertaken to evaluate gene flow, phylogeographic history, genetic structure and differentiation of both the goat populations to study genetic variation prevailing among Black Bengal and Black Bengal type goat in west Bengal and Jharkhand respectively and to study genetic relationship between both … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 20 Feb 2013 · 7,846 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleHepatitis B Virus DNA Can be Amplified Directly From Dried Blood Spot on Filter PaperNaglaa Fathy Alhusseini, Mamdouh Z. Abadeer, Sheref M. El-TaherHepatitis B Virus (HBV) infections represent a major public health problem because of the ability of HBV to cause a chronic carrier state. Even though chronic carriers remain largely asymptomatic, a large number of these individuals subsequently develop cirrhosis and primary hepatocellular carcinomas. Dried Blood Spot (DBS) samples are a simple and inexpensive sampling method, especially useful for blood collection … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 22 Jun 2012 · 8,454 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleBiomarkers of Oxidative DNA Damage and Soluble Fas/Fas Ligand in Type 2 Diabetic PatientsMohamed H. Mahfouz, Ibrahim A. Emara, Ghada A. OmarProblem statement: Involvement of oxidative stress in the pathogenesis of diabetic complications has been proposed. 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) has been reported to serve as a new sensitive biomarker of the oxidative DNA damage in vivo. Apoptosis via Fas/Fas Ligand (FasL) interactions has been proposed to be a major T-cell-mediated effector mechanism in autoimmune diabetes. This study was undertaken to investigate whether … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 3 Feb 2012 · 7,106 accessesView PDFCite
