background in recent decades, bacterial antibiotic resistance (especially in enterococci) has become a significant problem for human and veterinary medicine. one of the most important antibiotic resistances in enterococci, vancomycin resistance, is encoded by van gene family. objectives the aim of this study was to investigate antibiotic resistance to vancomycin in enterococci and the genes res...

linked and/or gene-based molecular markers have been used widely in marker-assisted selection (mas) to differentiate resistant and susceptible genotypes. resistance to meloidogyne spp. in beta vulgaris l. is mediated by a single dominant gene (r6m-1). using allele-specific primers (asps), an snp marker harboring a single nucleotide polymorphism (a/g), linked to the resistance gene was developed...

Background: This study aimed to investigate the occurrence of aminoglycoside resistance and the prevalence of the resistance-modifying enzyme genes, ant(3”)-III, ant(6’)-Ia, aac(6′)-Ie-aph(2”)-Ia, and aph(2’)-Id, in Enterococcus strains isolated in Kermanshah Province, west of Iran.Methods: In this cross-sectional study, 108 enterococcal isolates from urine, wound, blood, and cerebrospinal flui...

background pseudomonas aeruginosa is an opportunistic pathogen mostly affecting hospitalized and immunodeficient patients. considering the extent of attention paid to the issue of antibiotic resistance and the origin of such resistance and the growing number of treatment failures in patients with burn injury, it seems that investigating the degree of ampc gene expression could be beneficial for...

background and objectives: the therapeutic options for diseases caused by escherichia coli are limited. in this study we investigated the presence of virulence factors among enteropathogenic escherichia coli (epec) strains and their antibiotic resistance patterns. the isolates were also checked for the presence of class1 integrons and gene cassettes. materials and methods: this study included 7...

Background: The purpose of present study was to investigate whether Sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) levels and its receptors gene expressions are correlated with MyoD and myogenin following resistance training. Materials and Methods: 24 eight-week-old male Wistar rats (190-250 gr) were assigned randomly to a control (N = 12) or training (N = 12) group. Rats climbed a resistance training ladder...
