Polymorphic cutaneous sarcoidosis: A case report
Sarcoidosis (Besnier-Boeck-Schaumann disease) is a multisystem disease of unknown etiology with various cutaneous presentations. It is characterized by the presence of non-caseating ‘naked’ granulomas in the affected tissue. We report a case of polymorphic cutaneous sarcoid in a 39-year-old immunocompetent male. He was visited at our outpatient department with multiple asymptomatic red colored ...
متن کاملdPORE-miRNA: Polymorphic Regulation of MicroRNA Genes
BACKGROUND MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are short non-coding RNA molecules that act as post-transcriptional regulators and affect the regulation of protein-coding genes. Mostly transcribed by PolII, miRNA genes are regulated at the transcriptional level similarly to protein-coding genes. In this study we focus on human miRNAs. These miRNAs are involved in a variety of pathways and can affect many disease...
متن کاملExpression of sexual ornaments in a polymorphic species: phenotypic variation in response to environmental risk.
Secondary sexual traits may evolve under the antagonistic context of sexual and natural selection. In some polymorphic species, these traits are only expressed during the breeding period and are differently expressed in alternative phenotypes. However, it is unknown whether such phenotypes exhibit phenotypic plasticity of seasonal ornamentations in response to environmental pressures such as in...
متن کاملPolymorphic variation in human meiotic recombination.
In this study, our phenotype of interest is meiotic recombination. Using genotypes of approximately 6,000 SNP markers in members of the Centre d'Etude du Polymorphisme Humain Utah pedigrees, we found extensive individual variation in the number of female and male recombination events. The locations and frequencies of these recombination events vary along the genome. In both female and male meio...
متن کاملCommon polymorphic transcript variation in human disease.
Most human genes are thought to express different transcript isoforms in different cell types; however, the full extent and functional consequences of polymorphic transcript variation (PTV), which differ between individuals within the same cell type, are unknown. Here we show that PTV is widespread in B-cells from two human populations. Tens of thousands of exons were found to be polymorphicall...
