The diacylglycerol acyltransferase 1 gene (DGAT1) was identified as a strong candidate gene affecting mutton quality traits in sheep. Single nucleotide polymorphism creates a single base mutation (C to T) in AGCT site of endonuclease AluI. DGAT1 is one of the candidate genes to improve carcass characteristics in feedlot animals. In order to study area T487C in exon 17 of the DGAT1 polymorphism,...

Identification of Polymorphism Melanocortin 4 Receptor Gene and its Association with Egg Production Traits in Turkey

Association Between β-Defensin Gene Polymorphism and Clinical Mastitis in Holstein Dairy Cows: A Case-Control Study

the growth hormone receptor (ghr) is a member of cytokine/hematopoietin family that mediates the biological actions of growth hormone (gh) on target tissues. therefore, the purpose of this study was to examine the association of tg-repeat polymorphisms in the 5’-flanking region of bovine ghr gene with milk production traits and somatic cell score (scs) in holstein cattle of iran. the part of 5’...

BACKGROUND AND AIM: Recurrent aphthous stomatitis (RAS) is a lesion of the oral cavity with an unknown etiology. Several studies have been performed on the role of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) in RAS. The main purpose of this paper was to review TNF-α level and its gene polymorphism in patients with RAS, the factors influencing the production of TNF-α, a...

dna polymorphism within diacylglycerol transferase 2 (dgat2) / monoacyl glycerol transferases 2 (mogat2), leptin and butyrophilin genes were analysed using pcr-sscp in murrah buffalo. the single strand conformation polymorphism (sscp) analysis of amplified gene fragment in exon 5 of mogat2, exon 3 of leptin and intron 1 of butyrophilin gene revealed different patterns. a, b and c showed the fol...

Lung cancer a deadliest malignant disease , Cytokines play critical role in regulating host immune response toward and determining the overall fate of tumorigenesis. So this study aimed to investigate impact gene variation IL-10 promotor region on production cytokine their effect lung outcome. The aim is detection IL-10-1082A\G polymorphism serum level with it correlation progression disease. A...

different research groups have extensively studied the associations of cytokine gene polymorphisms in different diseases. the role of cytokines gene polymorphisms in multiple sclerosis (ms), as a chronic immune-mediated neurodegenerative disease, has been previously reported in the various populations. for determining pro-inflammatory cytokine gene polymorphisms, 100 relapsing remitting multipl...
