AIM The aim of the work was to assess relationship between gene polymorphism of enzymes influencing dopaminergic-, serotoninergic, and noradrenergic transfer and cognitive functioning of paranoid schizophrenic inpatients (ICD-10). METHOD The following methods have been used in the study: The Test of Everyday Attention (TEA) and The Visual Object and Space Perception Battery (VOSP), psychiatri...

In most Japanese populations of dojo loach (Misgurnus anguillicaudatus), gonochoristic diploids genetically diversified groups (A and B, further subdivided into B1 B2) are present, whereas unisexual clonal lineages inhabit certain localities in the Hokkaido Ishikawa Prefectures Japan. Through a series genetic studies including DNA markers, loaches were deemed to originate from hybridization eve...

A PCR-restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) method was developed in order to screen a large number of strains for impaired adhesion to epithelial cells due to expression of truncated InlA. inlA polymorphism was analyzed by PCR-RFLP in order to correlate inlA PCR-RFLP profiles and production of truncated InlA. Thirty-seven Listeria monocytogenes strains isolated from various sources, i...

conclusions the results of the antibiotic resistance and other data suggest that there is a possible common clone of e. faecalis, which could rapidly disseminate in patients and the environment. results the results indicated that, 86% of patient and 29% of environmental isolates carried ebp genes. the ability of the isolates to strongly attach was 62% and 71% for patient and environmental sampl...

biochemical polymorphism study is a method of determination of genetic variation. this variability could be a basis for selection and subsequent genetic improvement in farm animals. the polymorphism in the intron 1 of chicken growth hormone (cgh) gene was investigated in the iranian native fowls by using polymerase chain reaction (pcr)-restriction fragment length polymorphism (rflp) method. the...

The Kidd blood group locus encodes a urea transporter which is expressed on human red cells and in the kidney. This gene is located on chromosome 18q12, and evidence for linkage and association with type 1 diabetes mellitus has been reported. To investigate this further, the genetic basis for the blood group Jk(a)/Jk(b) polymorphism was first determined by sequencing reverse-transcribed reticul...

Calreticulin (CALR) mutations are included in the WHO diagnostic criteria of Myeloproliferative Neoplasm (MPN). Presence CALR mutation, aids their diagnosis by excluding reactive causes. There several molecular techniques to detect mutations; however, these require advanced equipment and technical expertise. An in-house “polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR- R...
