- Abstract:
- ... Pulmonary tuberculosis caused by an intracellular pathogen, Mycobacterium tuberculosis continues to exist as a hazardous disease to human life globally. Genetic polymorphisms regulate resistance and susceptibility to tuberculosis. The C-type lectin receptor of family 4 member E (CLEC4E) confers protection against tuberculosis in laboratory animals but its function in influencing exposure or resist ...

Periodontal disease (PD), a chronic inflammatory disorder mediated by progressive destruction of the oral cavity is one of the key factors for many systemic disorders including Coronary Artery Disease (CAD). The upregulation of CDKN2BAS, a long noncoding RNA gene expression in gingival epithelial cells and gingival fibroblasts of periodontitis shows a strong correlation between the severity of ath ...

- Abstract:
- ... The glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GPD) gene family plays a major role in glycerol synthesis and adaptation to abiotic stresses. Few studies on GPD family genes from the halotolerant algae Dunaliella salina are available. In this study, seven DsaGPD genes were identified by mining D. salina sequencing data. Among them, DsaGPD5 contained the canonical NAD+-GPD protein domain, called si-GPD. In ...

- Abstract:

Covalently closed, single-stranded circular RNAs (circRNAs) are a class of newly discovered endogenous RNAs involved in the pathological process of various types of diseases through sponging microRNAs (miRNAs). However, the role of circRNAs in diabetic cataract (DC) is unclear. Our previous studies have demonstrated that miR-204-5p was expressed more lowly in DC than the normal controls, but wheth ...

Its physiological functions are mediated through receptors (ER) whose expression can be regulated by presence or absence of polymorphisms. However, the association between ER polymorphisms and BMD as well as lipids are inconsistent. The aim of the study was to investigate whether polymorphisms in ESR are associated with bone m ...
