Background: The Endothelial PAS domain-containing protein 1 (EPSA1) is the key transcriptional regulator of hypoxic response and Vascular Permeability Factor (VPF) is an important growth factor for vascular development and angiogenesis. OBJECTIVES: In the present study, the levels of the EPSA1 coding gene and VPF transcripts were evaluated during Larval development of Beluga, Huso huso. METHODS...

this study explored the effects of gnrh agonist (gnrha) immunity on expression of fshr mrna in pituitary and fshr protein in uteri, and also confirmed its efficacy on uterine development. 42 prepuberty and non cyclic ewes were assigned to 6 experimental groups (eg) during anestrus season. animals in eg-i, eg-ii and eg-iii were subcutaneously injected with 200, 300 and 400 μg alarelin antigens (...

results the median level of pbmcs htert mrna in survivors increased with treatment time and was significantly higher than the corresponding level in non-survivors after 14 days of treatment (p < 0.001). subgroup analyses showed that the levels of pbmcs htert mrna were remarkably higher in patients with acute-on-chronic liver failure than in those with chronic liver failure (p < 0.05). in patien...

helicobacter pylori (h. pylori) infection has been reported in more than half of the world human population. it is associated with gastric inflammation and noticeable infiltration of the immune cells to the stomach mucosa by several cytokines secretion. il-1β, il-18 have been shown to contribute to h. pylori induced gastritis, but the details of inflammation and association of virulence factors...

our previous study reported that lactobacillus acidophilus ( l.acidophilus )  key laboratory of dairy science  (klds) 1.0738 had an effective impact on inhibiting β-lactoglobulin (β-lg) allergy. this study further investigated the anti-allergic activity of peptidoglycan (pgn) isolated from klds 1.0738. this study aimed to assess whether toll-like receptor 2 (tlr2)/nf-kappab (nf-κb) signaling ac...

Background RFamide-related peptide-3 (RFRP-3) inhibits gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH) and luteinizing hormone (LH) secretion in rats. This study evaluates the effects of litter size and suckling intensity on RFRP mRNA expression in the dorsomedial hypothalamic nucleus (DMH) of rats. MaterialsAndMethods A total of 32 pregnant and 4 non-lactating ovariectomized (control group) Sprague-Dawl...

Objective(s): The aim of this study was to investigate the methylation status and mRNA expression levels of P15, death-associated protein kinase (DAPK), and suppressor of cytokine signaling-1 (SOCS1) genes in multiple myeloma (MM). Materials and Methods: The bone marrow samples of 54 MM patients were collected and the methylation status of the P15, DAPK, and SOCS1 gene promoter regions was dete...
