Association of the IL‐6R rs2228145 polymorphism with diabetic nephropathy: A case‐control study

Journal of Diabetes Investigation, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction The pathogenesis of diabetes mellitus (DM) and its complications has been previously linked to elevated levels of interleukin‐6 (IL‐6); IL‐6 triggers intracellular pathways through interaction with the IL‐6 receptor (IL‐6R). This study aimed to determine the association of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) IL‐6 −597G/A ...

Molecular identification of Candida species isolated from cases of neonatal candidemia using polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism in a tertiary care hospital

Indian Journal of Pathology and Microbiology, 2017
Context: Candida spp. is an emerging cause of bloodstream infections worldwide. Delay in speciation of Candida isolates by conventional methods and resistance to antifungal drugs in various Candida species are responsible for the increase in morbidity ...

Leptin promoter G2548A variant, elevated plasma leptin levels, and increased risk of Type 2 diabetes with CAD in Iranian patients: A genetic association study

Journal of Diabetes Investigation, EarlyView.
The paper should be of interest to readers in the areas of genetic association, polymorphism, and Type 2 diabetes. ABSTRACT Background Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a significant risk factor for coronary artery disease (CAD). Leptin polymorphism is known to be associated with obesity and Type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Genotoxicity evaluation of acephate and profenofos by the PCR-RFLP assay

Toxicology International, 2014
In this study we have evaluated the genotoxic potential of pesticides acephate and profenofos by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) assay with the mosquito Culex quinquefasciatus taken as experimental model.Second instar larvae were treated with LC20 of each pesticide for 24 h and induced mutations in the ...

Discrimination of Kratom Products by an Improved PCR-RFLP Method

YAKUGAKU ZASSHI, 2020
In Japan, mitragynine, 7-hydroxymitragynine and Mitragyna speciosa Korth. (M. speciosa, "Kratom") were controlled as Designated Substances under the Pharmaceutical and Medical Device Act from March 2016. In this study, the origins of 16 Kratom products obtained from the illegal drug market in Japan were investigated by DNA analyses and LC-MS analyses ...

Fly diversity revealed by PCR‐RFLP of mitochondrial DNA [PDF]

Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2008
AbstractIn this article, we describe an inexpensive, two‐session undergraduate laboratory activity that introduces important molecular biology methods in the context of biodiversity. In the first session, students bring tentatively identified flies (order Diptera, true flies) to the laboratory, extract DNA, and amplify a region of the mitochondrial ...

Scat DNA Applications for Low‐Density Carnivore Survey: Techniques, Efficiency and Future Directions

Mammal Review, EarlyView.
We reviewed 338 studies encompassing mostly Felidae, Canidae and Mustelidae species throughout the world, confirming scat DNA as a reliable genetic source for many applications. The findings here offer guidance for future studies on low‐density carnivores, helping to design cost‐effective research and improving data quality for conservation efforts ...
