Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleTelomere 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 PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsA Sequence Based Validation of Gene Expression Microarray DataGerhard G. Thallinger, Eva Obermayr, Pornpimol Charoentong et al.Problem statement: Quantitative Reverse Transcription PCR (RT-qPCR) is often used to validate microarray data. Previous studies show different levels of correlation, without further investigation of influencing factors. Approach: We compared expression levels of 381 genes obtained from microarray hybridizations and from TaqMan based RT-qPCR assays. Correlation of expression levels was determined by comparing: (i) single genes across samples, (ii) all … …Current Research in Bioinformatics, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 19 Jan 2012 · 13,715 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsUse of Quantitative Polymerase Chain Reaction for Determining Copy Numbers of Transgenes in Lesquerella fendleriGrace Qianhong Chen, Jiann-Tsyh LinProblem statement: In transgenic plants, the number of transgene copies could greatly influence the level of expression and genetic stability of the target gene, thus it is important to develop an efficient method for accurate estimation of transgene copies. The quantitative Polymerase Chain Reaction (qPCR) technique is becoming more efficient nowadays to determine copy numbers of transgenes in transgenic plants, … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 8,191 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsMicroarray Analysis of Human Vascular Smooth Muscle Cell Responses to Bacterial LipopolysaccharideJoe Minta James, J. Yun, Sandy Der, Shikha RanaAccumulating evidence suggest a causal role of bacterial and viral infections in atherogenesis. Bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) has been shown to stimulate resting vascular smooth muscle cells (SMC) with the production of inflammatory cytokines and modulation of quiescent cells to the proliferative and synthetic phenotype. To comprehensively identify biologically important genes associated with LPS-induced SMC phenotype modulation, we compared the transcriptomes … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 31 Dec 2007 · 6,994 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Atorvastatin on Oxidized Low-Density Lipoprotein-induced Proliferation, Apoptosis, and Matrix Metalloproteinase-9 Expression in Human MacrophagesBensheng Liu, Huifan Li, Yan Wang, Li ZhangAtorvastatin (ATV), an HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor, is utilized in the treatment of atherosclerotic diseases. Mononuclear Macrophages (MMs) are critical immune cells involved in atherosclerosis progression, participating in processes such as foam cell formation, cytokine secretion, and the development of fibrous cap and lipid core. To further elucidate the mechanism by which ATV exerts its therapeutic effects on atherosclerosis through the … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 21, Issue 3 · 18 Nov 2025 · 2,133 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMolecular Identification of Domestic and Wild Boars Using Cytochrome-b Specific Primers for Halal AuthenticationRifqi, Edi Suryanto, Ari Surya Sukarno et al.The subject of adulterating wild boar and pig meat products with other animal meat is delicate, particularly in the Muslim nation of Indonesia. In recent years, there has been a lot of concern over halal meat products that contain wild boar and pig meat due to Economically Motivated Adulteration (EMA). However, there are limited studies of PCR-DNA-based to discriminate between … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 20, Issue 3 · 14 Nov 2025 · 2,378 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssociations of HSD17B1 Gene Expression with its DNA Methylation and Estradiol Level in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome Indonesian PatientsRina Puspita, Andon Hestiantoro et al.PCOS's origin and mechanism are still unknown. Epigenetics has been linked to PCOS in an increasing number of studies in recent years. The most extensively researched epigenetic alteration is DNA methylation. During organismal development, DNA methylation can control gene expression by altering transcription factor binding. The alterations in DNA methylation are directly associated with follicular development in PCOS. Studies show … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 24, Issue 2 · 8 Jan 2024 · 5,399 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEstablishment and Application of Rapid Quantitative Detection Technology for Bacillus cereusFeilong Sun, Hanyu Li, Jingxue Qian et al.Infections caused by Bacillus cereus often occur, causing a certain degree of health hazards and economic losses to people around the world. Rapid quantitative detection is of great significance for prevention. This study aims to develop a simple and rapid quantitative detection method for B. cereus, which can be used to monitor the contamination of B. cereus in food samples. … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 19, Issue 1 · 21 Mar 2023 · 5,564 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMomordica balsamina Fruit Extracts Enhances Selected Aspects of the Insulin Synthesis/Secretion PathwayAnanias Hodi Kgopa, Leshweni Jerry Shai, Motetelo Alfred MogalePrevious studies have suggested that crude plant extracts of the anti-diabetic medicinal plant, Momordica balsamina (MB) may exert their anti-diabetic effect through either enhancement of insulin sensitivity or inhibition of intestinal glucose absorption. However, the effects of these MB extracts on insulin synthesis and secretion are not well documented in the literature. Therefore, a main purpose of the current research … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 16, Issue 4 · 17 Dec 2020 · 6,999 accessesView PDFCite
Research NotesOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of A Rapid IgM-IgG Combined Antibody Test for SARS-CoV-2 Infection: Single Italian Center StudyKatia Margiotti, Marina Cupellaro, Sabrina Emili et al.The need for timely establishment of diagnostic assays of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is demanded in laboratories worldwide. We evaluated the performance of a flow immunoassay which can detect IgM an IgG antibodies simultaneously against SARS-CoV-2 virus in human blood within 15 min.
