Ovarian cancer patients with homologous recombination deficiencies exhibit specific clinical behaviors, and improved responses to treatments, such as platinum-based chemotherapy and poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitors, have been observed. Germline mutations in the BRCA 1/2 genes are the most w...
BACKGROUND: This study aimed to investigate the gene expression changes associated with carcinoma-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) involving in non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC). METHODS: We downloaded the GEO series GSE22862, which contained matched gene expression values for 15 CAF and normal fibrobla...
Objective: To standardize the single nucleotide polymorphism array (SNPa) method in acute myeloid leukemia/myelodysplastic syndromes, and to identify the similarities and differ- ences between the results of this method and karyotyping. Methods: Twenty-two patients diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia a...
La distrofia muscular de Duchenne y Becker (DMD/DMB) es una entidad de herencia recesiva ligada al cromosoma X que se presenta con debilidad muscular y es causada por mutaciones en el gen de la distrofina. La pérdida de heterocigocidad permite identificar a las mujeres portadoras de deleción en el gen ...
The genetic variability of three Gymnotus species from the Caracu stream, a small tributary of the left margin of Paraná River (Brazilian upper Paraná River floodplain), was estimated with data of 17 putative allozyme loci, which were obtained by using corn starch gel electrophoresis of 10 enzymatic sy...
Foram isolados e caracterizados marcadores microssatélites em Pirapitinga do sul (Brycon opalinus, Cuvier, 1819) (Chariciforme, Characidae, Bryconiae). As análises dos microssatélites foram conduzidas para avaliar a estrutura genético populacional e o seu potencial como ferramenta no manejo de popula...
Neste estudo foi analisada a perda de heterozigose (LOH) para os genes supressores de tumor p53, APC e DCC, em 40 casos de carcinoma epidermóide de boca (CEB) e nos tecidos normais correspondentes, utilizando-se a técnica da reação em cadeia da polimerase e análise de polimorfismo de comprimento dos...
