introduction: β-globin gene cluster haplotypes are useful in diagnosis of particular molecular defects in β-thalassemia, prenatal diagnosis of β-thalassemia, and elucidating population affinities. methods: β-globin gene cluster haplotypes were studied in 150 β-thalassemia minor and 52 healthy in-dividuals from the fars province of iran. dna was extracted from leukocytes of whole blood by phe-no...

In order to better understand the chiral recognition mechanisms of positively charged cyclodextrin (CD) derivatives, synthesis, pKa determination by 1H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR)-pH titration and a comparative capillary electrophoretic (CE) study were performed with two series mono-substituted cationic single isomer CDs. The first selectors mono-(6-N-pyrrolidine-6-deoxy)-β-CD (PYR-β-CD), ...

alzheimer’s disease (ad) is a neurodegenerative disorder and the most common form of dementia. almost 47 million people suffer from dementia worldwide. ad accounts for approximately 60%–80% of all dementia cases. three major pathologies characterize the disease: senile plaques, neurofibrillary tangles and inflammation. we review the literature on events contributing to the inflammation. those i...

background: β-thalassemia as a hereditary disease is defined as defective synthesis of   β-globin chains, resulting in erythropoiesis abnormalities and severe anemia. different studies have shown that cytokines and cytokine gene polymorphisms play a major role in the pathogenesis of   β-thalassemia. single nucleotide polymorphisms (snps) within the promoter region or other regulatory sequences ...

Background and objectives: Plumeria rubra L. (Apocynaceae) is a deciduous shrub or small tree cultivated in subtropical and tropical countries.  Its bark is prescribed to treat amoebic dysentery,   dropsy, jaundice, scabies, gonorrhea, venereal affections and wounds. In the present research, we aimed to isolate and identify the chemical constituents of the bark of ...

زمینه و هدف: کم‌تحرکی در مقابل آن تمرین جزء عوامل مرتبط با شاخص‌های آسیب کبدی به‌شمار می‌روند. وجود این هنوز نقش بسیاری از تمرین‌های ورزشی به‌ویژه تمرینات تناوبی مقاومتی مصرف برخی مکمل‌های غذایی جمله اسپیرولینا بر ایمنی التهابی کاملاٌ شناخته نشده است؛ بنابراین هدف پژوهش تعیین اثر هشت هفته مکمل‌دهی هوازی فعالیت بافت کبد بیان ژن CXCL1 عضلة موش‌های صحرایی نر بود.مواد روش‌ها: نیمه‌تجربی، 60 سر موش ن...
