Research ArticleOpen accessTelomere Length Measurement by Quantitative Real-time PCR: A Molecular Marker for Human Age PredictionNaglaa F. Alhusseini, Abdelmonem G. MadbolyThe fact that telomere shortening occurs with aging leads to the hypothesis that a correlation could be made between Telomere Length (TL) and suspect age. This study aimed to assess if TL can be used as an investigational tool to predict human age through developing a formula based on this correlation with accuracy suitable to be applied in forensic practice. … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 24 Mar 2016 · 8,004 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessFactors Affecting the Response to Interferon Alpha Therapy in Egyptian HCV PatientsNaglaa F. Alhusseini, Fathy M. Serry, Ashraf A. Kadry, Heba KhairyHepatitis C Virus (HCV) infection is one of the main causes of chronic liver disease worldwide. Egypt has the highest prevalence of Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) in the world, estimated nationally at 14.7%. knowledge of the predictors of Sustained Viral Response (SVR) to Pegylated Interferon (PEG-INF) and Ribavirin (RBV) therapy in patients with chronic hepatitis C is crucial for selecting … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2015 · 6,619 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessFactors Those Up Regulate Klotho and Glutathione Peroxidase-1 Gene Expression Improve Renal Function in Rats with Acute Renal FailureFatma E. El-Gendey, Shabaan A. Hemeda, Gamal A. Sosa, Naglaa F. AlhusseiniAcute Renal Failure (ARF) has traditionally been defined as the abrupt and progressive loss of kidney functions resulting in the retention of urea and other nitrogenous waste products associated with interstitial inflammation, tubular injury and increasing Tumor Necrosis Factor (TNF). Mortality in patients with ARF remains high >50% in severely ill patients. Klotho gene is a new anti-aging gene. Genetic … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 15 Aug 2015 · 7,097 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessGene Expression of FADS2 mRNA Linked to Intelligence in Exclusively Breast Milk Fed PretermsNaglaa F. Alhusseini, Amal Idris Ali, Azza M.A. Abul-Fadl et al.Breastfeeding is important for brain development and was shown by many studies to result in higher scores Intelligent Quotient (IQ). However, the exact mechanism whereby Breastfeeding influences cognitive development remains unclear. This study aimed to study the expression of genetic code FADS2 linked to the cognitive function in relation to the mode of feeding. The study comprised 30 preterm infants … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 25 Nov 2014 · 6,857 accessesView PDF Cite
