To assess genetic diversity and maternal origin of Turkish and Iranian native chicken breeds, we analyzed the mtDNA D-loop sequences of 222 chickens from 2 Turkish (Denizli and Gerze) and 7 Iranian (White Marandi, Black Marandi, Naked Neck, Common Breed, Lari, West Azarbaijan, and New Hampshire) native chicken breeds, together with the available reference sequences of G. gallus gallus in GenBan...

mutations in the gjb2 gene at the dfnb1 locus on chromosome 13q12 are associated with autosomal recessive non syndromic hearing loss (arnshl) in many populations. a single mutation, at position 35 (35delg) accounts for approximately 30-63% of mutations in white populations with a carrier frequency of 1.5-2.5% in most european, north american and mediterranean populations. in this study we have ...

To visualize the structure of Iranian chemistry scientific publications in SciSearch, 43 Iranian and International chemists were identified. They were the highly cited scientists in 7682 Iranian chemistry publications (defined as an article with at least one Iranian author address) indexed in Science Citation Index during the period from 1990 to 2006. Co-citation data for these authors from the...

Abstract Background The government is the main body in charge of controlling epidemics; hence, expectations from intention and capacities would affect flexibility behaviors citizens. Given severity COVID-19 pandemic urgent need for cooperation people prevention combat processes, understanding public perspectives be crucial instructive. This study aimed to explore such towards current among Iran...

Recently we proposed a novel method of alignment-alignment comparison, COMPASS (the tool for COmparison of Multiple Protein Alignments with Assessment of Statistical Significance). Here we present several examples of the relations between PFAM protein families that were detected by COMPASS and that lead to the predictions of presently unresolved protein structures. We discuss relatively straigh...

autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (adpkd) is the most common genetic nephropathy, which is characterized by replacement of renal parenchyma with multiple cysts. in iran, the disease prevalence within the chronic hemodialysis patient population is approximately 8-10%. so far, three genetic loci have been identified to be responsible for adpkd. little information is available concernin...

Poor sleep in children may effectively affect their every day working, temperament, conduct, school execution and child rearing level [1-3]. In addition, sleep issues effectively affect personal satisfaction. At times, rest issues (sleep disorders) might be an indication of consideration deficiency/hyperactivity issue [4,5]. Rest issue are one of the fundamental medical problems raised by famil...

background: the b-cell defect in x-linked agammaglobulinemia (xla) is caused by mutations in the gene for bruton's tyrosine kinase (btk). btk mutations result in deficient expression of btk protein in peripheral blood monocytes. methods: using the anti-btk monoclonal antibody (48-2h), a flow cytometric analysis of intra cytoplasmic btk protein expression in monocytes was performed to ident...

OBJECTIVE The aim was to evaluate gender differences in depression scores of Iranian and German medical students. METHODS Two hundred Iranian medical students (100 men and 100 women) and 200 German medical students (100 men and 100 women) were selected randomly and completed the English form of the self-rating Beck Depression Inventory (BDI). RESULTS Analysis gave a mean rating of 10.7 ± 6....
