A potential inflammatory role of IL-31 in psoriatic arthritis: A correlation with Th17 cytokine profile
(International Journal of Immunopathology and Pharmacology, 2020-12-21)
The goals of our study were to determine the possible association of interleukin (IL)-31 with Th17 cytokine profile in serum and to quantify retinoic acid-related orphan receptor C (RORC) mRNA expression in psoriatic ...
Relevance of miR-21 in regulation of tumor suppressor gene PTEN in human cervical cancer cells
(BioMed Central, 2016-03-14)
Background: Expression of the microRNA miR-21 has been found to be altered in almost all types of cancers and it has been classified as an oncogenic microRNA or oncomir. Due to the critical functions of its target proteins ...
Interaction of dietary fat intake with APOA2, APOA5 and LEPR polymorphisms and its relationship with obesity and dyslipidemia in young subjects
(BioMed Central, 2015-09-13)
Background: Diet is an important environmental factor that interacts with genes to modulate the likelihood of developing disorders in lipid metabolism and the relationship between diet and genes in the presence of other ...
CD36 haplotypes are associated with lipid profile in normal-weight subjects
(Lipids in Health and Disease, 2013-04-13)
Dyslipidemia is a common metabolic disorder that may result from abnormalities in the synthesis, processing and catabolism of lipoprotein particles. Disorders of lipoprotein concentrations and elevated concentration of ...
Correlation of leptin and soluble leptin receptor levels with anthropometric parameters in mother-newborn pairs
(International Journal of Clinical and Experimental Medicine, 2015-07-30)
The aim of this study was to investigate if anthropometric parameters are associated with both leptin and soluble leptin receptor (sLEPR) levels in newborns and their mothers. This cross-sectional study was performed in ...
Variaciones de número de copias: marcadores y predictores de diabetes tipo 2
(Revista Medica Instituto Mexicano Seguro Social, 2014-07-15)
Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a disease characterized by a defi ciency in production or action of insulin. It is the result mainly of the interaction of the environment, lifestyle, as well as genetic factors. It is considered ...
The effects of heat activation on bacillus spore germination, with nutrients or under high pressure, with or without various germination proteins
(Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 2015-02-13)
Nutrient germination of spores of Bacillus species occurs through germinant receptors (GRs) in spores'inner membrane (IM) in a process stimulated by sublethal heat activation. Bacillus subtilis spores maximum germination ...
Human papilloma virus, DNA methylation and microRNA expression in cervical cancer (Review)
(2014-03-13)
Cancer is a complex disease caused by genetic and epigenetic abnormalities that affect gene expression. The progression from precursor lesions to invasive cervical cancer is influenced by persistent human papilloma virus ...
Macrophage migration inhibitory factor promoter polymorphisms (-794 CATT5 and -173 G>C): relationship with mRNA expression and soluble MIF levels in young obese subjects
(Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2015-03-30)
We analyzed the relationship of -794 CATT5 and -173 G>C MIF polymorphisms with mRNA and soluble MIF in young obese. A total of 250 young subjects, 150 normal-weight and 100 obese subjects, were recruited in the study. ...
Effects of sporulation conditions on the germination and germination protein levels of bacillus subtilis spores
(Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 2012-02-10)
Bacillus subtilis spores prepared in rich medium germinated faster with nutrient germinants than poor-medium spores as populations in liquid and multiple individual spores on a microscope slide. Poor-medium spores had ...
