Four transcription variants have been characterized. MAP2 Isoform 5 (NM_001039538.1 --> NP_001034627.1): The difference in this isoform is characterized by the 5' UTR which results in the production of a longer protein when compared to isoform 2. MAP2 Isoform 1 (NM_002374.3 --> NP_002365.3): This isoform is thought to be the longest encoded and contains three alternative in-frame exons when com...

background early predictive biomarkers for acute kidney injury (aki) such as neutrophil elatinase-associated lipocalin (ngal) could identify patients who may benefit from early initiation of treatment. objectives we aimed to obtain a cut off point for aki prediction by urine ngal in kidney transplantation. patients and methods in a prospective cohort study, 64 adult who underwent kidney transpl...

background: determination of oocyte fertilization and embryo quality are one of the most important purposes in art cycles. follicular fluid provides an important microenvironment for development of oocytes and some biochemical characteristics of the follicular fluid, such as pregnancy-associated plasma protein-a (papp-a), may play an important role in prediction of success rate of art. objectiv...
