RIPK3 dampens mitochondrial bioenergetics and lipid droplet dynamics in metabolic liver disease

Hepatology, EarlyView., 2022
RIPK3 dampens mitochondrial bioenergetics and lipid droplet dynamics in metabolic liver disease. Abstract Background and Aims Receptor‐interacting protein kinase 3 (RIPK3) mediates NAFLD progression, but its metabolic function is unclear. Here, we aimed to investigate the role of RIPK3 in modulating mitochondria function, coupled with lipid droplet (LD)

Comparative analysis and identification of spike mutations in Iranian COVID-19 samples from the first three waves of disease

Advanced Biomedical Research, 2023
Background: The spike surface glycoprotein of SARS-CoV-2 is the essential protein in virus attachment to the target cell and cell entrance. As this protein contains immunodominant epitopes and is the main target for immune recognition, it is the critical

Temporal expression of genes involved in the biosynthesis of gibberellins in birch (Betula platyphylla) [PDF]

, 2013
Gibberellins (GAs) are a large family of endogenous plant growth regulators. Bioactive GAs influence nearly all processes during plant growth and development. In the present study, we cloned and identified 10 unique genes that are potentially involved in

Molecular characterization, cloning and sequencing of coat protein gene of a Pakistani potato leaf roll virus isolate and its phylogenetic analysis [PDF]

, 2016
Total RNA was extracted from potato leaf roll virus (PLRV) positive potato plants and complementary DNA were synthesized. Reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) based detection conditions were optimized by using coat protein (CP) gene ...

Optimization of the reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction for the detection of circulating prostate cells [PDF]

British Journal of Cancer, 2000
The reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) is a sensitive technique that can detect prostate-specific messenger RNA in circulating blood. Many authors have studied the potential of RT-PCR as a staging technique in prostate cancer (PC). Clinical sensitivity and in some cases specificity has been disappointing.

Boron deficiency responses in maize (Zea mays L.) roots

Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Background Boron (B) is an essential micronutrient for plants. Dicot plants respond to insufficient B supply by altering root architecture and root hair growth. How root systems of rather low‐B demanding monocot species such as maize (Zea mays L.) respond to B deficiency in terra has not been experimentally resolved, yet.

Comparison of Reverse Transcriptase Loop-Mediated Isothermal Amplification and Reverse Transcriptase Polymerase Chain Reaction for Detection of Prostate Specific Antigen

Basic & Clinical Cancer Research, 2019
Background: Research shows that prostate cancer ranks second among the top five most common cancers in men. It has been confirmed that if the circulating Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) transcripts are detected successfully, the prostate cancer cells ...

Genetic diversity among viruses associated with sugarcane mosaic disease in Tucumán, Argentina [PDF]

, 2009
Sugarcane leaves with mosaic symptoms were collected in 2006--07 in Tucumán (Argentina) and analyzed by reverse-transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) and sequencing of a fragment of the Sugarcane

Nanozyme-based biosensing for clinical diagnosis of COVID-19: A mini review [PDF]

arXiv, 2023
Several clinical methods had been utilized for diagnosis of COVID-19 for instance, real-time reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (rRT-PCR), hematology examination, polymerase chain reaction (PCR), diagnostic guidelines based on clinical features, and Chest CT scans.

Confidence intervals for nonhomogeneous branching processes and polymerase chain reactions [PDF]

Annals of Probability 2005, Vol. 33, No. 2, 674-702, 2005
We extend in two directions our previous results about the sampling and the empirical measures of immortal branching Markov processes. Direct applications to molecular biology are rigorous estimates of the mutation rates of polymerase chain reactions from uniform samples of the population after the reaction. First, we consider nonhomogeneous processes,
