Fluoride tolerance is an economically important trait of silkworm. Near-isogenic lines (NILs) of the dominant endurance to fluoride (Def) gene in Bombyx mori has been constructed before. Here, we analyzed the gene expression profiles of midgut of fluoride-sensitive and fluoride-endurable individuals of Def NILs by using high-throughput Illumina sequencing technology and bioinformatics tools, and identified...
Catalase is an important endogenous antioxidant enzyme that detoxifies hydrogen peroxide to oxygen and water, thus limiting the deleterious effects of reactive oxygen species. Several studies investigated the role of the Catalase (CAT) C-262T gene polymorphism on the risk of prostate cancer (PCa), but get conflicting results. We performed a meta-analysis based on five studies, to determine whether...
A sugary mutant with low total starch and high sugar contents was compared with its wild type Sindongjin for grain-filling caryopses. In the present study, developing seeds of Sindongjin and sugary mutant from the 11th day after flowering (DAF) were subjected to RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq). A total of 30,385 and 32,243 genes were identified in Sindongjin and sugary mutant. Transcriptomic change analysis...
There are increasing scientific evidences suggesting that E-cadherin gene promoter hypermethylation may contribute to the development and progression of bladder cancer, but existing studies have yielded inconclusive results. This meta-analysis aims to assess the role of E-cadherin promoter hypermethylation in bladder carcinogenesis. We conducted an extensive literature search for relevant studies...
Animal ionotropic glutamate receptors (iGluRs) function as Ca 2+ ion channels during excitatory neurotransmission in nerve cells. Here, a glutamate receptor-like gene (GLR) was identified and characterized from a plant — Echinochloa crus-galli. The GLR gene was designated EcGLR1 with GenBank no: JX518597. It has a 2793bp open reading frame predicted to encode a 101.7kDa protein. Sequence alignment...
Although recent genome-wide association studies of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) identified a susceptibility locus in phospholipase C epsilon 1 (PLCE1) in Chinese Han populations, few studies further confirmed these findings in pure Kazakh population in which there are higher incidence and mortality of ESCC. Here, we investigated the potential associations between 19 SNPs of PLCE1 and...
CXCR4-tropic (X4) variants are associated with faster disease progression than CCR5-tropic variants in HIV infection. We previously reported inhibition of CCR5 expression on U937 cells could protect the cells from HIV-1 infection. Here, we established recombinant adenoviruses containing anti-sense CXCR4 cDNA, to investigate its role in the protection of HIV entering into target cells. A fragment of...
Pancreatic ribonuclease gene (RNASE1) was previously shown to have undergone duplication and adaptive evolution related to digestive efficiency in several mammalian groups that have evolved foregut fermentation, including ruminants and some primates. RNASE1 gene duplications thought to be linked to diet have also been recorded in some carnivores. Of all mammals, bats have evolved the most diverse...
Invasive fungal infection (IFI) is a life-threatening infection occurring most often in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and few data has been reported in SLE patients particularly in China. This present study was aimed to determine IFI prevalence, associated risk factors and patterns of infection in Chinese SLE patients. A retrospective study was conducted in a single institute of...
We sequenced an 80 kb DNA region containing the complete sequence of the silkworm Bombyx mori fibroin gene and its flanking, especially the upstream, regions (-62 kb). About 30% of the 62 kb upstream region is composed of repetitive elements including short interspersed elements Bm1, long interspersed elements L1Bm and mariner-like elements Bmmar1 which are widespread over the silkworm genome. This...
