The human obesity susceptibility gene, FTO, associates with body mass and obesity in humans through regulation of energy expenditure and intake. We aimed to determine how fatty acids in plasma and in diet associate with FTO gene expression in subcutaneous and visceral adipose tissues. In this study, 97 participants aged ≥ 18 years were selected fro...

Environmental gradients between marine biogeographical provinces separate distinct faunal communities. However, the absence of absolute dispersal barriers allows numerous species to occur on both sides of such boundaries. While the regional populations of such widespread species are often morphologically indistinguishable from each other, genetic e...

Dormancy breaking is a common physiological phenomenon that is shared by eukaryotes. Germination of spores in fungi is one of the most representative cases of dormancy breaking. Understanding the mechanisms of spore germination is therefore fundamental to basic studies on the control of cell proliferation and differentiation, as well as agricultura...

There is increasing evidence for the involvement of dietary bioactive compounds in the cross-talk modulation of endocannabinoid system and some of the key regulators of transcriptional control for adipogenesis. We aimed to characterize the expression of cannabinoid CB1/CB2 receptors and fatty acid amide hydrolase (FAAH) along with selected adipogen...

In order to study the variation of gonad lipidomics during reproductive cycle, black rockfish was employed as the research model in the present study. Using histology, lipidomics, and qPCR, the profile of gonad lipidomics and the expression levels of related genes during different developmental stages were detected and analyzed to show the potentia...

To investigate abnormally methylated-differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and their related pathways in osteoarthritis (OA) by comprehensive bioinformatic analysis. Gene expression profiles of GSE51588 and GSE114007, and a gene methylation microarray data GSE63695 were downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) repository. Abnormally methyl...

BackgroundAberrant splicing of individual genes is a well-known mechanism promoting pathology for a wide range of conditions, but disease is less commonly attributed to global disruption of exon usage. To explore the possible association of aberrant splicing with inflammatory bowel disease, we developed a pipeline for quantifying transcript abundan...

ObjectiveThe purpose of this clinical trial was to examine the effect of omega-3 fatty acids (W-3 FAs), nanocurcumin and their combination on serum levels and gene expression of VCAM in patients with episodic migraine.ResultsIn this study, 80 patients were randomly divided in to 4 groups to receive for 2 months. Both serum levels and gene expressio...

BackgroundBroilers are continuously stressed because of the rapid growth rate and the environmental issues associated with industrialized poultry production systems, which lead to higher susceptibility for infection with pathogens. It is well known that vitamin E (Vit. E) and selenium (Se) supplementation have protective functions in such stressful...

Activation of the complement system propagates neuroinflammation and brain damage early and chronically after traumatic brain injury (TBI). The complement system is complex and comprises more than 50 components, many of which remain to be characterized in the normal and injured brain. Moreover, complement therapeutic studies have focused on a limit...
