Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGenetic Characterization of a Bovine Breed (Tabapua) Under Artificial Selection Located in the Amazon RegionJose Elivalto Guimaraes Campelo, Marcone Helmer da Silva, Ednaldo da Silva Filho et al.Brazil currently has the biggest commercial bovine cattle population in the world. Several different breeds that come from Europe and India compose it. They are primarily used for dairy and meat production. In Brazil, several high quality genetic background cattle are kept in a condition known as pure breed, meaning no other animal of different genetic background is interbreeding with … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 30 Jan 2013 · 7,558 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCo-Inhibitory Molecule Programmed Death-1 and its Ligands: A New Alternative Therapy for Human Immunodeficiency Virus Infection?A. Leon-Flores, P. Del Rio, G. Reyes-TeranChronic viral infections are characterized by the up-regulation of a set of immunomodulatory receptors. The over-expression of co-inhibitory molecules on T cells leads to a dysfunctional T cell response with an "exhausted" phenotype. Programmed Death-1 (PD-1) is a molecule that exerts an inhibitory signal on the T cell receptor when it binds to the PD-L1 or PD-L2 ligands present on … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 28 Dec 2012 · 6,965 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of L-Carnitine and Cinnamon Extract Treatment on Lens Crystallins of Rats Fed High Fructose DietMohamed H. Mahfouz, Amany Abd El-Ghaffar, Mona A. Mohamed, Hala M. GhanemProblem statement: Rats fed high dietary fructose are documented to form an acquired model of insulin resistance; the present study aims to investigate possible changes in lens crystallins of rats fed high fructose diet and the effects of administration of each exogenous L-Carnitine (CA) and Cinnamon Extract (CE) on protein glycation, oxidative stress and redox homeostasis in this rat model. … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 3 Aug 2011 · 8,716 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGenetic Diversity Analysis of the Gohilwari Breed of Indian Goat (Capra hircus) Using Microsatellite MarkersSubodh Kumar, S. P. Dixit, N. K. Verma et al.Problem statement: Gohilwari breed of goat is a multipurpose goat mainly for milk and meat purposes and best suited in its harsh climatic condition. This breed is inadequately characterized till now at DNA level. So the present study was undertaken for population genetic analysis at molecular level to exploit the breed for planning sustainable improvement, conservation and utilization, which subsequently … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2009 · 8,927 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHost Plant Mediated Population Variations of Cotton Whitefly Bemisia tabaci Gennadius (Aleyrodidae: Homoptera) Characterized with Random DNA MarkersYasodha Perumal, Murugan Marimuthu, Abida Puthenpeedikal Salim, Balasubramanian PonnusamyProblem statement: Whitefly, Bemisia tabaci is an important sucking pest of field, horticultural and ornamental plants causing feeding injuries besides spreading disease by acting as a vector of Gemini viruses. The polyphagous nature of the pest makes it as a highly complex species. Approach: The influence of host plants utilized by the species on the population differences at molecular level … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 8,215 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordReassessment of Molecular Variation in Isolated Populations of Deschampsia cespitosa from Metal Contaminated Regions in Northern Ontario (Canada) after 17 Years of Potential Genetic RecombinationSabrina Rainville, Peter Beckett, Kabwe NkongoloThe effects of ore extraction and processing procedures in the Greater Sudbury and Cobalt regions have been long-lasting. The objective of this study is to determine the current level of genetic variation in Deschampsia cespitosa populations from metal contaminated and uncontaminated sites in samples collected in Northern Ontario in 2016 after 17 years of potential genetic recombination since the last … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 4 · 13 Jul 2017 · 7,046 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordThe Porcine Mitochondrial Transcription Factor a Gene: Molecular Characterization, Radiation Hybrid Mapping and Genetic Diversity among 12 Pig BreedsTanja Kunej, Xiao-Lin Wu, Jennifer J. Michal et al.Problem statement: Mitochondrial transcription factor A (TFAM) is a nucleus-encoded protein that is a key activator of mitochondrial transcription as well as a major participant in mitochondrial genome replication. Genomic characterization of the porcine TFAM gene is, therefore, necessary to determine its involvement in regulation of fat depots and meat quality traits in pigs. Approach: Genomic DNA sequence was determined … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 6,874 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordMolecular Gender Determination of Ancient Human from Malay PeninsularZ.A. Shahrul Hisham, S. Sahidan, M. A.W. Rohaya et al.Problem statement: DNA samples from fourteen modern human bloods (seven males and seven females) and two ancient skeletal samples excavated from Kalumpang Island and Dungun, Peninsular Malaysia were subjected for molecular genders determination using specific primers of human AMELX and AMELY. Approach: A standard multiple PCR mixture with forward primer and either a human X-specific reverse primer for AMELX or … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2009 · 7,609 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordMolecular Characterization of Assam Hill GoatGalib Uz Zaman, Naba Nahardeka, Subimal Laskar et al.A total of 23 polymorphic microsatellite markers were used to evaluate genetic diversity and population structure in Assam Hill Goat (AHG). All the loci studied were polymorphic in nature. The number of observed alleles (Na) detected ranged from 2 to 10 with an overall mean of 4.9±2.220. A total of 114 alleles were observed across all the loci. The effective … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 13 Jul 2013 · 7,462 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordGenetic Diversity of Red Chittagong Cattle Using Randomly Amplified Polymorphic DNA MarkersMohammad Masud Rana Mufti, Mst. Parvin Mostari, Gautam Kumar Deb et al.Problem statement: Red Chittagong Cattle (RCC) is a potential genetic resource in Bangladesh having dairy potentialities, high resistance to disease and survive harse environmental condition while require low input supply.
