First use of a natural swine model with lipid metabolism to directly link lipid differences to a quantifiable intestinal villus height phenotype. Identified the phospholipid‐derived oleoylethanolamide, rather than canonical fatty acids, as the endogenous primary ligand that activates peroxisome proliferator‐activated receptors α (PPARα) to enlarge ...

Functional analysis of human alpha 1(I) procollagen gene promoter. Differential activity in collagen-producing and -nonproducing cells and response to transforming growth factor beta 1. [PDF]
To gain a further understanding of the regulation of human type I collagen gene expression under physiologic and pathologic conditions, we characterized 5.3 kilobase pairs (kb) of the human alpha 1(I) procollagen gene promoter.

A novel zinc-finger nuclease platform with a sequence-specific cleavage module [PDF]
Zinc-finger nucleases (ZFNs) typically consist of three to four zinc fingers (ZFs) and the non-specific DNA-cleavage domain of the restriction endonuclease FokI.

ABSTRACT Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is a common virus that causes respiratory infections, posing a serious threat, particularly to infants, the elderly, and individuals with compromised immune systems. As the leading cause of lower respiratory tract infections (LRTIs) in infants, RSV is responsible for millions of cases worldwide each year.

Expression of Green Fluorescence Protein (GFP) in Zebrafish Muscle through Injection: A Gene Therapy Model [PDF]
Expression of the target gene is important for gene therapy. Presently, localized transgenesis is used for gene therapy which can be achieved by a target gene expression. Here, we have reported the plasmid mediated gene therapy to zebrafish model.

Evaluation of Loss of the Y Chromosome in Peripheral Blood as a Biomarker for Prostate Cancer
ABSTRACT Background Prostate cancer (PCa) is the most common malignant tumor in men, but the widely used prostate‐specific antigen (PSA) test has limited diagnostic accuracy. Research proposes that the loss of the Y chromosome (LOY) may affect the occurrence and development of prostate cancer, aiming to assess its potential as a diagnostic biomarker to

Concerted evolution at the population level: pupfish HindIII satellite DNA sequences. [PDF]
The canonical monomers (approximately 170 bp) of an abundant (1.9 x 10(6) copies per diploid genome) satellite DNA sequence family in the genome of Cyprinodon variegatus, a "pupfish" that ranges along the Atlantic coast from Cape Cod to central Mexico, are divergent in base sequence in 10 of 12 samples collected from natural populations. The divergence

ABSTRACT Human citrate synthase (hCS) is a mitochondrial enzyme that catalyzes the aldol condensation of acetyl coenzyme A (AcCoA) to oxaloacetate to form citrate in the TCA cycle. CS activity is important for aerobic exercise performance and basic metabolic function as a housekeeping enzyme.

Lipoprotein Lipase HindIII Intronic Polymorphism in a Subset of Iranian Patients with Late-Onset Alzheimer’s Disease [PDF]
Objective: Lipid metabolism is involved in the pathogenesis of late-onset Alzheimer’s disease (LOAD). Lipoprotein lipase (LPL) is a multifunctional enzyme that plays a major role in lipid metabolism; its abnormal function seems to be related, either ...
