Myocardial hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) injury is one of the main causes of death and disability worldwide. However, a limited number of therapies are available to minimize the detrimental effects of this injury. Recently, researchers have demonstrated that metformin exerts direct cardioprotective effects against H/R. The aim of this study was to investigate the underlying mechanisms of how metformin...
Rapeseed (Brassica napus) is an important cash crop considered as the third largest oil crop worldwide. Rapeseed oil contains various saturation or unsaturation fatty acids, these fatty acids, whose could incorporation with TAG form into lipids stored in seeds play various roles in the metabolic activity. The different fatty acids in B. napus seeds determine oil quality, define if the oil is edible...
CHARGE syndrome is an autosomal-dominant disorder involved in multiple organs. Loss-of-function mutations in CHD7, a member of the chromodomain helicase DNA-binding (CHD) protein family, are known to cause the CHARGE syndrome. The purposes of this paper were to affirm the diagnosis and to identify the molecular basis of one atypical CHARGE syndrome patient from China, where only one CHARGE case was...
Prenatal diagnosis of congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) is of clinical significance because in utero treatment is available to prevent virilization of an affected female fetus. However, traditional prenatal diagnosis of CAH relies on genetic testing of fetal genomic DNA obtained using amniocentesis or chorionic villus sampling, which is associated with an increased risk of miscarriage. The aim...
Tree peony (Paeonia suffricotisa) cultivars have a unique character compared with wild species; the stamen petalody results in increased whorls of petals and generates different flower forms, which are one of the most important traits for cultivar classification. In order to investigate how petaloid stamens are formed, we obtained the coding sequence (666bp) and genomic DNA sequence of the PsTM6 genes...
The bcl-2 major breakpoint region (mbr), located within the 3′-UTR of the bcl-2 gene, is the site of the most common chromosomal translocation, t(14;18) (q32;q21), which occurs in follicular lymphoma. The mbr forms a triplex DNA structure under physiological conditions and the transcription factor special AT-rich sequence-binding protein 1 (SATB1) binds immediately downstream of the mbr. These observations...
