Actin capping protein beta (CAPZB) protein was identified with considerable differences in the longissimus dorsi muscle between Large White and Meishan pigs using proteomics approach. However, in pigs, the information on CAPZB is very limited. In this study, we cloned and characterized the porcine actin capping protein beta (CAPZB) gene. In addition, we present two novel porcine CAPZB splice variants...
The plant-specific NAC (NAM, ATAF1/2, and CUC) transcription factors have diverse roles in plant development and stress responses. In this study, a stress-responsive NAC gene, SlNAC2, was isolated and characterized from high-throughput Solexa sequencing of Suaeda liaotungensis. SlNAC2 showed high similarity to other NACs, especially ATAF subgroup members. Transcripts of SlNAC2 appeared in many Suaeda...
This study is to investigate the key genes and their possible function in acute myocardial infarction (AMI). The data of GSE4648 downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database include 6 time points (15min, 60min, 4h, 12h, 24h and 48h) of 12 left ventricle (LV) samples, 12 surviving LV free wall (FW) samples, 12 inter-ventricular septum (IVS) samples after AMI operation and corresponding...
In the present study, for the first time, 293 Taiwanese aboriginal males from all nine major tribes (Ami, Atayal, Bunun, Rukai, Paiwan, Saisat, Puyuma, Tsou, Yami) were genotyped with 17 YSTR loci in a attend to reveal migrational patterns connected with the Austronesian expansion. We investigate the paternal genetic relationships of these Taiwanese aborigines to 42 Asia-Pacific reference populations,...
The actinin-associated LIM protein (ALP) subfamily has important functions in cell signal transduction, cell proliferation, and integration of cytoskeletal architecture. To detect their functions in pig skeletal muscle, we cloned and characterized the pig ALP subfamily genes, drew their genomic structure maps, and detected their tissue expression patterns. We identified a new spliced variant of PDLIM3...
Ecdysteroid hormone 20-hydroxyecdysone (20E) plays fundamental roles in insect development and reproduction, whereas the primary role of ecdysone (E) is the precursor for 20E. A cytochrome P450 monooxygenase (CYP), encoded by a Halloween gene Shade (Shd, cyp314a1), catalyzes the conversion of E into 20E in representative insect species in Diptera, Lepidoptera and Orthoptera. We describe here the cloning...
To investigate the relationship between the resistin intronic +299G/A polymorphism and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).We selected 738 T2DM patients, including 395 with NAFLD and 343 without fatty liver disease, as well as 279 healthy control individuals, and analyzed their resistin +299G/A polymorphism genotype by polymerase chain reaction–restriction...
Increasing epidemiological studies have focused on the associations between interleukin-6 (IL-6) gene −174G>C polymorphism and atherosclerotic diseases, but the results are still controversial. This meta-analysis was designed to identify whether this association exists. PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, Cochrane database, Clinicaltrials.gov and Current Controlled Trials, Chinese Clinical Trial Registry,...
Intramuscular fat (IMF) shortage causes the lack of juiciness and tenderness of goat meat, while peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma 1 (PPARγ1) and gamma 2 (PPARγ2) play key roles in lipid metabolism. Nevertheless, their expression patterns and the relationship with IMF have been poorly exposed. Using quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR), classical Soxhlet extraction, and in...
To maintain the normal length of female reproductive life, the majority of primordial follicles must be maintained in a quiescent state for later use. In this study, we aimed to study the effects of rapamycin on primordial follicle development and investigate the role of mTOR and sirtuin signaling. Rats were treated every other day with an intraperitoneal injection of rapamycin (5mg/kg) or vehicle...
Two single nucleotide polymorphisms rs12979860C/T and rs8099917T/G around interleukin-28B (IL28B) locus have been extensively investigated in their association with hepatitis C virus (HCV) spontaneous clearance. However, with the variable and even inconsistent results, it is necessary to conduct a meta-analysis. A literature search was conducted to seek articles about genetic variation of IL28B and...
Amelogenesis imperfecta, dentinogenesis imperfecta, and dentin dysplasia are the most common non-syndromic dental disorders. In this study, we analysed and localised the gene(s) responsible for inherited non-syndromic dental disorders in a Chinese family.This study identified and researched non-syndromic dental disorders in a four-generation Chinese family, including four affected individuals whose...
Epidemiological studies have evaluated the association between apolipoprotein E (ApoE) gene polymorphism and multiple sclerosis (MS) risk. However, the results remain conflicting. Therefore, in order to derive a more precise association of ApoE gene polymorphism with MS risk, we performed this meta-analysis. Systematic searches of electronic databases PubMed, Embase and Web of Science, as well as...
OsSYP71 is an oxidative stress and rice blast response gene that encodes a Qc-SNARE protein in rice. Qc-SNARE proteins belong to the superfamily of SNAREs (soluble N-ethylmaleimide‐sensitive factor attachment protein receptors), which function as important components of the vesicle trafficking machinery in eukaryotic cells. In this paper, 12 Qc-SNARE genes were isolated from rice, and expression patterns...
We assessed the effects of calorie restriction (CR)-mediated protection against chemotherapy damage on ovarian reserve. Forty-eight female Sprague–Dawley rats were randomly divided into four groups: the normal control group (NC group, fed ad libitum), the CR group (fed with 65% food intake of the NC group), the CTX group (injected with cyclophosphamide (CTX) and fed ad libitum), and the CR+CTX group...
We determined the complete nucleotide sequence of the mitochondrial (mt) genome of the large-headed frog, Limnonectes bannaensis (Amphibia, Anura) by using polymerase chain reaction (PCR). The entire mtDNA sequence is 16,867 bp in length with a novel case of tRNAs in vertebrates. This mt genome is characterized by three distinctive features: (1) a tandem duplication of tRNA Met gene is observed,...
The hypersensitive response (HR) is one of the most efficient forms of plant defense against biotrophic pathogens and results in localized cell death and the formation of necrotic lesions. In this study, a novel putative hypersensitive induced reaction (HIR) gene from wheat leaves infected by incompatible stripe rust pathogen CY23, designated as Ta-hir1, was identified by using rapid amplification...
Transposable elements (TEs) and their contributions to protein-coding regions are of particular interest. Here we searched for TE fragments in Homo sapiens at both the transcript and protein levels. We found evidence in support of TE exonization and its association with alternative splicing. Despite recent findings that long evolutionary times are required to incorporate TE into proteins, we found...
