Tissue-specific developmental expression of OAX, a Xenopus repetitive element
Approximately 1% of the Xenopus laevis genome consists of highly repetitive DNA known alternatively as OAX (for Oocyte Activation in Xenopus), Satellite I, or Repetitive HindIII Monomer 2. Present as tandemly repeated units of approximately 750 base pairs, OAX encodes a family of small RNA species transcribed by RNA polymerase III. Although the subject of many of the classic studies on early em...
متن کاملThe Repetitive Element RLEP Is a Highly Specific Target for Detection of Mycobacterium leprae
Leprosy, caused by Mycobacterium leprae, is a mutilating and highly stigmatized disease that still affects hundreds of thousands of new patients annually. The diagnosis relies entirely on clinical findings, per WHO guidelines, although confirmation of clinically doubtful presentations requires reliable diagnostic tools. Early detection and treatment interrupt transmission and prevent severely d...
متن کاملStudying a specific tumor marker by a new method and analyzing its efficiency in labeling animals
Purpose: To recognize affective factors in delivering X-ray contrast agents (which have high atomic number) via gallium carrier to liver or lymphatic neoplasm cells. Materials and Methods: Since uptake of gallium by liver has been reported in numerous researches, it was bonded with a contrast media (metrizoate). X-ray imaging was done to determine geometric features of liver. Results: Rad...
متن کاملThioperamide-induced Antinociception is Mediated through Endogenous Opioid System in the Dentate Gyrus of Adult Rats
The present study investigated the effects of intra-dentate gyrus microinjection of naloxone (an opioid antagonist) and thioperamide (an antagonist of histamine H3 receptors) in the formalin test in rats. Subcutaneous injection of formalin (50 μl, 2.5 %) in the ventral surface of right hind paw produced a biphasic pattern (first phase: 0-5 min and second phase: 15 - 60 min) of licking/biting an...
متن کاملSusceptibility to tumors induced by polyoma virus is conferred by an endogenous mouse mammary tumor virus superantigen
A dominant gene carried in certain inbred mouse strains confers susceptibility to tumors induced by polyoma virus. This gene, designated Pyvs, was defined in crosses between the highly susceptible C3H/BiDa strain and the highly resistant but H-2k-identical C57BR/cdJ strain. The resistance of C57BR/cdJ mice is overcome by irradiation, indicating an immunological basis. In F1 x C57BR/cdJ backcros...
