Molecular mapping and candidate gene analysis for resistance to powdery mildew in Cucumis sativus stem

Powdery mildew (PM) of cucumber (Cucumis sativus), caused by Podosphaera xanthii, is a major foliar disease worldwide and resistance is one of the main objectives in cucumber breeding programs. The resistance to PM in cucumber stem is important to the resistance for the whole plant. In this study, genetic analysis and gene mapping were implemented with cucumber inbr.. Read More»

Pooled analysis of association between a genetic variant in the 3'-untranslated region of Toll-like receptor 4 and cancer risk

    X. Wang, Z. Xu and C.H. Miao

Many epidemiological studies have shown the association between certain genetic variations in the Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) gene (for example, rs4986790 and rs4986791) and cancer risk. However, the results from investigations into the association between rs11536889, a genetic variant in the 3'-untranslated region of TLR4, and cancer risk lack consensus. We performed a meta-analysis to investi.. Read More»

CXCL12 G801A polymorphism and susceptibility to glioma: a case�control study

    S.F. Chang, S.L. Li, B. Yang, K.M. Yao, R.H. Miao, G.F. Liang and K.M. Zhang

Previous studies have demonstrated that the CXCL12 G801A polymorphism is closely correlated with tumor susceptibility. In addition, the CXCL12/CXCR4 pathway is closely related to proliferation, metastasis, and invasion of glioma. However, the genetic effects of the CXCL12 G801A polymorphism on glioma risk in Chinese populations remain unknown. In this study, we investigated the potential associ.. Read More»

Cloning and expression analysis of a heat shock protein 90 �² isoform gene from the gills of Wuchang bream (Megalobrama amblycephala Yih) subjected to nitrite stress

    S.M. Sun, J. Zhu, X.P. Ge, C.F. Zhang, L.H. Miao and X.J. Jiang

Heat shock protein 90 (HSP90), a highly conserved and multi-functional molecular chaperone, plays an essential role in cellular metabolism and stress response. In this study, HSP90 cDNA named MaHSP90 was cloned from Wuchang bream (Megalobrama amblycephala) gills by using rapid amplification of cDNA ends. The full-length MaHSP90 cDNA is 2674 bp and consists of a 3',5'-untranslated region and a 2.. Read More»
