Towards the identity of different Crna slavonska pig breed gene pools [PDF]

Journal of Central European Agriculture, 2018
The microsatellite (MS) genetic diversity studies on CS pig breed showed subclustering of this breed. Structuring results based on MS data of 70 CS pigs were compared to the MC1R coat color gene genotyping results.

The Influence of MC1R Variants on Facial Aging Rate [PDF]

Journal of Investigative Dermatology Symposium Proceedings, 2015
Aging of the skin is influenced both by intrinsic factors, such as chronological age, and by extrinsic or environmental factors, such as chronic ultraviolet exposure and smoking. Skin photoaging is defined as premature aging of the skin due to chronic sun exposure. Variation in human skin and hair color is due to differences in the absolute amounts and

BRAF and MC1R in Melanoma: Different in Head and Neck Tumors? [PDF]

Journal of Investigative Dermatology, 2013
In this issue, Hacker et al. (2012) report the largest study to date on the association between MC1R variants and BRAF mutant melanoma. Although they did not observe a significant overall correlation, there was a significant negative association between BRAF and MC1R mutations for head/neck melanomas.

Comparative Molecular Insights into Developmental and Behavioral Toxicity Induced by Octocrylene and Ethylhexyl Salicylate Exposure on Zebrafish

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
This study compared the ecological toxicity of organic ultraviolet filters, octocrylene (OC) and ethylhexyl salicylate (EHS), on zebrafish embryos and larvae. EHS exhibited higher acute toxicity, causing increased mortality, hypoactive behavior at 50 mg/L, and disruptions in lipid homeostasis, while OC primarily affected hypoxia response and ...

Variability of the mc1r gene in melanic and non-melanic Podarcis lilfordi and Podarcis pityusensis from the Balearic archipelago.

PLoS ONE, 2013
The association between polymorphism at the mc1r locus and colour variation was studied in two wall lizard species (Podarcis lilfordi and P. pityusensis) from the Balearic archipelago.

Age‐specific melanoma risk associated with nevi: a pooled analysis from the M‐SKIP project

JDDG: Journal der Deutschen Dermatologischen Gesellschaft, EarlyView.
Summary Objective This study investigates the association of melanoma risk with total‐body nevus count and the presence of atypical nevi in younger (< 40 years) and older (> 60 years) individuals. Methods A pooled analysis was conducted within the M‐SKIP project, based on multiple melanoma case‐control studies.

Ubiquitin and ubiquitin‐like modifications in the endoplasmic reticulum stress response

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress activates various proteostasis control processes, including the unfolded protein response, ribosome‐associated quality control, and ER‐associated degradation. Ubiquitin and ubiquitin‐like modifications dynamically regulate these processes to determine cell fate, promoting adaptation or inducing cell death.

Striking Suture Zone Mismatch Between Nuclear and Mitochondrial Markers in North African Chalcides ocellatus (Squamata: Scincidae)

Zoologica Scripta, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Linnaean and Wallacean shortfalls remain pervasive even among common and widespread Mediterranean taxa, limiting our understanding of evolutionary history and species boundaries. The Ocellated Skink Chalcides ocellatus complex illustrates this issue, with disputed subspecific taxonomy and deep mitochondrial divergences across North Africa and ...

Exterior characteristics and coat colour marker of MC1R gene in Bali Crossbred cattle

Journal of the Indonesian Tropical Animal Agriculture
Crossbreeding between Bali cattle with exotic bulls (such as Simmental and Limousin) has been widely developed in several regions in Indonesia. This study aims to determine changes in exterior characteristics and differences in vital statistics of Bali ...
