The nucleolar organizer regions are used as a new marker in proliferation cell. AgNOR are loops of DNA actively transcribing to ribosomal RNA and they are associated with nonhistone proteins with strong argyrophil. In the present study we correlated the relationships between number and size of AgNOR measured by an automatic image analysis using CAS-100, in eleven breast carcinomas in different ...

The objective of this study was to evaluate the relationship between polymorphism at the MnlI site of MTNR1A gene and production traits of Shal and Romanov crossbreeding. The crossbreeding between Shal and Romanov was done on 600 Shal ewes. For this reason, Shal ewes were laparoscopically and artificially inseminated with the semen of Romanov breed. For the preparation of genomic DNA, a total o...

A porcine bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) library consisting of 103,488 clones has been constructed. The average insert size in the BAC vector was calculated to be 133 kb based on the examination of 189 randomly selected clones, indicating that the library contained 4.4 genome equivalents. The library can be screened by two-step PCR. The first screening step is performed on 22 superpools,...

The most common inherited form of hydrocephalus, X linked hydrocephalus (HSAS), is characterised by mental retardation, adducted thumbs, and spastic paraplegia. Genetic analysis has mapped the locus for HSAS to subchromosomal band Xq28 within a region of approximately 2 megabases of DNA. In order to refine the location of the disease gene we have conducted genetic linkage analysis with Xq28 mar...

Background and Objectives: RCC is one of the most common genitourinary cancers. Accurate prediction of prognosis would be valuable for adjuvant trial design, counseling and effectively scheduling follow up visits. P53 is a tumor suppressor gene that expresses a protein that involved in both cell-cycle ar...

Abstract: In addition to the usual sources of error that have been long studied by statisticians, many data sets have been rounded off in some manner, either by the measuring device or storage on a computer. In this paper we investigate theoretical properties of generalized fiducial distribution introduced in Hannig (2009) for discretized data. Limit theorems are provided for both fixed sample ...
