[ 1 ] - مطالعه ژن کاندیدا در رتینوپاتی دیابتی: ژن I-IGF

Background: The alteration of IGF-I systemic level in diabetes is typically characterized by depletion of free IGF-I plasma level and its decreased bioavailability. With regard to protective and advantageous effects of IGF-I on tissue healing and cellular regeneration such depletion could facilitate or accelerate tissue damages and complications.  By contrast, the local concentration of IGF-I i...

[ 2 ] - Dysregulated Expression of Long Intergenic Non-coding RNAs (LincRNAs) in Urothelial Bladder Carcinoma

Long intergenic non-coding RNA (lincRNA) has been introduced as key regulators of diverse biological processes, including transcription, chromatin organization, cell growth and tumorigenesis. With regard to the potential role of lincRNAs in cancer development, one may postulate that differential expression of lincRNAs could be employed as a tool in cancer diagnosis, prognosis, and targeted ther...

[ 3 ] - Genetic Screening of Iranian Patients with 46,XY Disorders of Sex Development

Background: Disorders of sex development (DSDs) belong to uncommon pathologies and result from abnormalities during gonadal determination and differentiation. Various gene mutations involved in gonadal determination and differentiation have been associated with gonadal dysgenesis. Despite advances in exploration of genes and mechanisms involved in sex disorders, most children with severe 46,XY ...

[ 4 ] - New approaches in cancer immunotherapy: review article

Cancer immunotherapy refers to any intervention that leverages the immune system to eliminate a malignancy. Successful cancer immunotherapies generate an anti-cancer response that is systemic, specific, and durable and overcome to the primary limitations of traditional cancer treatment modalities. In this review paper, the effective methods in immune system to treat cancer, such as immunosuppre...

[ 5 ] - Expression Levels of Two DNA Repair-related Genes under 8 Gy Ionizing Radiation and 100 Mg/Kg Melatonin Delivery In Rat Peripheral Blood

Background: After radiation therapy (RT), some health hazards including DNA damages may occur where melatonin can play a protective role due to free radical generation. On the other hand, serious accidental overexposures may occur during RT due to nuclear accidents which necessitate the need for study on exposure to high-dose radiations during treatments.Objective: The aim of this study was to ...
