Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCTLA-4 Gene Polymorphism in Relation to Thyroid Disorders in Patients with Chronic Hepatitis C Under Interferon Alpha TherapySalwa M. Abo El-Khair, Abd El-Hameed A. Metwali, Mohamed Abd El-Maksoud, Tarek BesheerThyroid autoimmunity and dysfunction have reported as side effects of interferon-α treatment. The CT60 and exon 1+49 A/G polymorphisms in the Cytotoxic T-Lymphocyte Antigen 4 (CTLA-4) gene have linked to susceptibility to autoimmune disease. The aim of this research was to analyze the frequencies of CTLA-4 CT60 and +49 A/G polymorphisms and evaluate both polymorphisms as indicators of thyroid disorder … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 20 Sep 2012 · 7,586 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMethylenetetrahydrofolate Reductase (677C/T) Polymorphism in Myocardial Infarction and HypertensionHatem Al-Kordy Amin, Hanaa Fahmy Abdel Aziz, Ola Farouk Leheta, Hanan KamalHyperhomocysteinemia is a well-established risk factor for cardiovascular disease and hypertension. This study aimed to assess the MTHFR gene polymorphisms (677C/T) as a potential genetic risk factor for hypertension and Myocardial Infarction (MI) in Egypt. Myocardial infarction and hypertensive diagnosed patients were divided into two groups; first comprised 50 patients aged 45 years and a third control group comprised 84. … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 20 Sep 2012 · 8,138 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBiological Control of Spodoptera frugiperda Eggs Using Telenomus remus Nixon in Maize-Bean-Squash PolycultureAntonio GutiA©rrez-MartAnez, Alfredo Tolon-Becerra, Xavier B. Lastra-BravoThe maize earworm, Spodoptera frugiperda (J.E. Smith) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae), is an important pest in maize. Telenomus remus Nixon (Hymenoptera: Scelionidae) is an important control agent of this pest due to its capacity to invade the whole egg mass. The percentage of parasitism by Telenomus remus Nixon (Hymenoptera: Scelionidae) on Spodoptera frugiperda (J.E. Smith) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) eggs was evaluated in maize-bean, … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 17 Jul 2012 · 10,890 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractQuantitative Trait Loci Analysis of Novel Fusarium Head Blight Resistance in Tokai 66Y. Yen, A.M. H. Ibrahim, S. Malla et al.Problem Statement: Identification of Quantitative Trait Loci (QTLs) in durable resistant genotype is important for marker-assisted breeding. The study was conducted to identify QTLs linked to FHB resistance in 'Tokai 66', a Japanese genotype. Approach: A cross was made between Tokai 66 and Jagalene and the single seed descend was used to advance the population. The F2:4 and F2:5 populations … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 8,096 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIdentification of Clonal Clusters of Klebsiella pneumoniae Isolates from Chennai by Extended Spectrum Beta Lactamase Genotyping and Antibiotic Resistance Phenotyping AnalysisC. Kamatchi, H. Magesh, Uma Sekhar, Rama VaidyanathanProblem statement: An increased resistance to antibiotics has been reported in Klebsiella pneumoniae, an opportunistic gram negative pathogen belonging to Entrobacteraceae due to the evolution and spread of plasmid encoded extended spectrum beta lactamases and other genes conferring cross-resistance to other antibiotics. This is of concern due to the increasing cost of antibiotic treatment and the spread of multidrug resistance … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,958 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMethylenetetrahydrofolate Reductase (MTHFR) from Mediterranean to Sub-Saharan AreasRosa Chillemi, Andrea Angius, Ivana Persico et al.There are differences in the allele frequency of MTHFR polymorphism between Western and African population. The aim of this study is to determinate the prevalence of MTHFR C677T and A1298C polymorphisms in young and old people living in different areas from Mediterranean to sub-Saharan areas. The observed vs expected genotype frequencies of 677T were in Hardy Weinberg equilibrium, with the … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 30 Jun 2006 · 7,592 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Role of SLC22A4 Gene Polymorphisms in the Response to Salbutamol in Asthmatic PatientsAlshymaa A. Ahmed, Nora M. Said, Alia A. El Shahaway, Nagwan A. IsmailResponse to Bronchodilators is influenced by many factors including genetics. To evaluate the influence of SLC22A4 gene polymorphisms (rs3792876 and rs2073838) on the response to inhaled salbutamol in asthmatic patients, bronchodilator response was assessed in 180 bronchial asthma patients via measuring changes of the Forced Expiratory Volume in one second (FEV1) after the administration of inhaled salbutamol and genotyping for … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 30 Jun 2019 · 7,471 accessesView PDFCite

EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractThe Timeless Contribution of Rootstocks towards Successful Horticultural Farming: From Ancient Times to the Climate Change EraIoannis E. PapadakisGrafting is a horticultural practice by which living vegetative plant organs (root, stem and/or buds) of either the same genotype or, usually, different genotypes belonging to the same species, genus, subfamily and/or family, are tightly connected to each other to form a double-compound plant. In fact, it is a method of asexual (clonal-vegetative) propagation of plants. The basal part of … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 16 Dec 2016 · 9,527 accessesView PDFCite
