Effects of Varroa destructor on temperature and humidity conditions and expression of energy metabolism genes in infested honeybee colonies

Authors: C.S. Hou, B.B. Li, S. Deng and Q.Y. Diao

Varroa destructor mites pose an increasing global threat to the apicultural industry and agricultural ecology; however, the issue of whether certain environmental factors reflect the level of mite infection is far from resolved. Here, a wireless sensor network (WSN) system was used to examine how V. destructor, which has vital impacts on honeybee (Apis me.. Read More»

Effects of MMP-1 and MMP-3 gene polymorphisms on gene expression and protein level in lumbar disc herniation

Authors: B. Eser, O. Eser, Y. Yuksel, H. Aksit, E. Karavelioglu, M. Tosun and Z. Sekerci

The aim of this study was to identify the possible correlation between polymorphisms in matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-1 and MMP-3 and their corresponding protein levels in disctissues obtained from patients with lumbar disc herniation (LDH) using biochemical and immunohistochemical analyses. Blood and disc samples were obtained from 100 patients with LDH.. Read More»

Expression patterns of two heat-shock cognate 70 genes during immune responses and larval development of the Chinese mitten crab Eriocheir sinensis

Authors: P. Li, X.F. Jiang, W.B. Guo, J. Yan and K.Y. Zhou

Two heat-shock protein (HSP) 70 family transcripts, heat-shock protein 70 cognate 5 and heat-shock protein 70 cognate 3 (designated as EsHSC70-5 and EsHSC70-3, respectively), were isolated from the Chinese mitten crab Eriocheir sinensis and their expression profiles were evaluated for their responsiveness to larval development and immune challenge in adul..

HPV genotyping and p16 expression in Xingu Indigenous Park, Brazil

Authors: V.G. Freitas, G.R. Focchi, E.R. Pereira, J.E. Levi, N.M.G. Speck and J.C. Ribalta

The association between high-risk human papillomavirus (HPV) genotypes and p16 expression in indigenous women from the Xingu Indigenous Park, Brazil, was unknown. This study evaluated p16 expression in women with a histological diagnosis of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) 3 or higher and correlated this expression with HPV genotypes to determine ..

Antibody preparation and identification of the Cashmere goat c-kit protein in the testes

Authors: S.C.L. Wu, F.H. Luo*, Q.F. Kong and Y.J. Wu

The c-kit protein plays a major role in the regulation of germ cell development. Its expression and distribution in rodent testes have been widely reported. However, research regarding c-kit expression in domestic animals is scarce, and the expression pattern and distribution of c-kit in germ cells have not been clearly define.. Read More»

A novel DDX5 gene in the freshwater crayfish Cherax quadricarinatus is highly expressed during ontogenesis and spermatogenesis

Authors: D.-A. Fang, Q. Wang1, J. Wang, L. He, L.-H. Liu and Y. Wang

The freshwater crayfish Cherax quadricarinatus, originally from Australia, is an invasive species that is also widely used in aquaculture. DEAD-box helicase family genes are found throughout evolution and encode RNA-binding proteins. The human DDX5 (p68) is important for normal cell growth, differentiation and proliferation. W..

Lipopolysaccharide and �²-1,3-glucan binding protein in the hard clam (Meretrix meretrix): Molecular characterization and expression analysis

Authors: S.X. Liu, Z.H. Qi, J.J. Zhang, C.B. He, X.G. Gao and H.J. Li

Pattern recognition molecules play an important role in innate immunity by recognizing conserved molecular patterns that are present on the surface of invading microorganisms. In this study, a lipopolysaccharide and β-1,3-glucan binding protein (LGBP) gene was cloned from the hard clam Meretrix meretrix .. Read More»

Molecular cloning and functional characterization of cyclin E and CDK2 from Penaeus monodon

Authors: C. Zhao, M.J. Fuand L.H. Qiu

Reduced reproductive performance of the black tiger shrimp (Penaeus monodon) has caused economic losses and hampered the fishing industry. Detailed investigation of the molecular mechanism by which the cell cycle is regulated in this organism is needed to understand the development and maturation of ovaries and oocytes, with a view to improving reproducti..

Expression analysis of self-incompatibility-associated genes in non-heading Chinese cabbage

Authors: L. Wang, C. Wang, T.T. Ge, J.J. Wang, T.K. Liu, X.L. Hou and Y. Li

In Brassicaceae, a self-incompatibility (SI) system mediates pollen-pistil interactions. Self-pollen could be recognized and rejected by incompatible pistils. Several components involved in the SI response have been determined, including S-locus receptor kinase (SRK), S-locus cysteine-rich protein/S-locus protein 11, and arm r.. Read More»

Molecular cloning and characterization of a novel chicken gene named grni

Authors: Y. Hua, D.Y. Hui, Z.H. Rong and T. Cheng

The full-length cDNA sequence of a novel expressed sequence tag (GenBank accession No. HQ184338) that was differentially expressed during Newcastle disease virus (NDV) infection in chickens was cloned from the chicken spleen by a rapid amplification of cDNA ends assay. This gene was further analyzed using bioinformatic methods.. Read More»
