Development of tetra-primer ARMS-PCR protocol to genotype the prolactin receptor SNP 39136666 and assessment of this SNP in Brazilian locally adapted cattle breeds

As raças taurinas de origem ibérica Limonero e Carora (Bos primigenius taurus) possuem o fenótipo de pelo curto, liso e com baixa densidade folicular, o que confere a esses animais maior tolerância térmica e melhor produtividade em regiões quentes. Diferentes mutações associadas a esse fenótipo ...

Development and application of two novel functional molecular markers of BADH2 in rice

BACKGROUND: Fragrance is one of the most important quality traits in rice, and the phenotype is attributed to the loss-of-function betaine aldehyde dehydrogenase (BADH2) gene. At least 12 allelic variations of BADH2 have been identified, and some of these have been applied to rice fragrance breeding usin...

Introducción del genotipaje molecular de los antigenos plaquetarios
Introduction of molecular genotypingof plateles antigens

Introducción: Los antígenos plaquetarios humanos (HPA) se expresan en 6 glucoproteínas plaquetarias diferentes. Se ha descrito que estos antígenos pueden estimular la producción de aloanticuerpos una vez expuestos a plaquetas humanas con diferentes HPA, lo que provoca complicaciones clínicas como l...

Frecuencia, caracterización y análisis genotípico de Escherichia coli productor de toxina Shiga en frigoríficos de carne bovina de Argentina
Frequency, characterization and genotypic analysis of Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli in beef slaughterhouses of Argentina

Rev. argent. microbiol; 51 (1), 2019
The objectives of this study were: (1) to estimate STEC frequency in hide and carcass samples taken from beef slaughterhouses supplying the domestic market in Argentina, (2) to establish the pheno-genotypic characteristics of STEC and non-toxigenic Escherichia coli of serogroups O26, O45, O103, O121, O11...

Allele and haplotype frequencies of human platelet and leukocyte antigens in platelet donors

Einstein (Säo Paulo); 17 (1), 2019
ABSTRACT Objective To described the allele and haplotype frequencies of human leukocyte antigen genes at the -A, -B loci and human platelet antigen genes for human platelet antigen systems 1 to 9, 11 and 15 in blood. Methods We included 867 healthy unrelated volunteer donors who donated platelets bet...

Desempeño de métodos moleculares para la identificación de subtipos poco comunes del virus de la hepatitis C, genotipo 2

Biomédica (Bogotá); 38 (2), 2018
Resumen Introducción. El virus de la hepatitis C (HCV) presenta una gran variabilidad genética, con siete genotipos y numerosos subtipos. La determinación del tipo viral ha sido fundamental para la escogencia y la duración del tratamiento antiviral adecuado. En Venezuela, el genotipo 2 del HCV es r...

A participação da autofagia na regulação da célula-tronco hemopoética em camundongos knockouts para Atg7 e transglutaminase 2

A desnutrição é um dos principais problemas de saúde pública do mundo, que contribui significativamente para o aumento da morbidade e mortalidade. Estima-se um total de 815 milhões de pessoas subnutridas no mundo, e apesar da melhoria dos recursos alimentares o número de pessoas desnutridas ainda ...

Detection and genotyping of human adenovirus and sapovirus in children with acute gastroenteritis in Belém, Pará, between 1990 and 1992: first detection of GI. 7 and GV. 2 sapoviruses in Brazil

Abstract INTRODUCTION: Acute gastroenteritis (AGE) is one of the most common causes of morbidity and mortality, especially among children from developing countries. Human adenovirus (HAdV) and sapovirus (SaV) are among the agents that cause AGE. The present study aimed to detect and genotype HAdV and S...

Relationship between glycemic control and OPG gene polymorphisms with lower bone mineral density in patients with type 1 Diabetes mellitus

ABSTRACT The aim of the present study was to investigate the bone mineral density (BMD) of patients with type 1 Diabetes mellitus (T1DM). We also assessed the association between osteoprotegerin (OPG) genetic polymorphisms and BMD. Genotyping was performed for 1181G>C and 163A>G OPG polymorphisms b...

Design of an allele-specific PCR assay to genotype the rs12255372 SNP in a pilot study of association between common TCF7L2 polymorphisms and type 2 diabetes in Venezuelans

Objective The global burden of diabetes mellitus will impact strongly American countries in the coming decades. Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a multifactorial disease and the basis for its genetic susceptibility remains not fully understood. Different population studies have demonstrated that varian...
