The mitochondrial DNA of 62 Saami from the north of Norway was analyzed in the D loop hypervariable region I and II and sequences were compared to other gene pools. Two major (lineage 1 and 2) and two minor (lineage 3 and 4) maternal lineage clusters were found. Lineage 1 (56.9% of all hitherto analyzed Saami samples) contains a substantial number of branching haplotypes which are unknown in Eu...

The health consequences of in utero exposure to maternal obesity on future generations are concerning because they contribute to increased rates of diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and metabolic syndrome. We previously reported that maternal high-fat diet exposure in mice resulted in an increase in body size and reduced insulin sensitivity that persisted across two generations via both materna...

The Leiden Roster for Huntington's disease (HD) contained data on 2617 cases up to July 1988. The age at onset (AO) was known in 1084 cases and in 1020 of these both their AO and the sex of the affected parent was known. The mean AO was higher for females than for males and higher for maternal than for paternal cases. However, in the group born before 1925 only females with maternal inheritance...

background: mature t/ nk-cell neoplasms are a rare group of disorders and their presentation as leukemia is even rarer. most of the previous studies have focused on mature b-cell lineage leukemias and there is a paucity of data on mature t/nk-cell lineage leukemias. we, therefore, planned this study to analyze their spectrum, frequency, morphology and immunophenotypic features. methods: all cas...

Abstract Background Being the native inhabitants of Neolithic Fertile Crescent, Kurds were included in several maternal lineage studies concerning Eurasian population. However, no study was performed on Kurdish population Sulaymaniyah city (latitude 33.314690 and longitude 44.376759). This carried out a sample Sorani living for identification population-related single nucleotide polymorphisms (...

undoubtedly, the legislator has paid special attention toward protection of lineage of persons so as the weakest evidence like lottery may be used to establish a lineage under the shiite jurisprudence. therefore, the value and credit of scientific evidence such as dna test in proving lineage is very clearly acceptable. but the point worth considering here is evaluating whether such scientific e...

Objective(s):From the ancient era, emergence of Agriculture in the connecting region of Mesopotamia and the Iranian plateau at the foothills of the Zagros Mountains, made Iranian gene pool as an important source of populating the region. It has differentiated the population spread and different language groups. In order to trace the maternal genetic affinity between Iranians and other populatio...
