AbstractEndocrine cells can be fully functional after heterotopic transplantation into mammals, which makes them a promising tool for regenerative medicine. However, to date, cellular therapy for endocrine diseases is limited by the inability to efficiently and stably obtain endocrine cells in vitro. The review focuses on current knowledge of the m...

Objective: Posner-Schlossman syndrome (PSS), also known as glaucomatocyclitic crisis, is an ocular condition characterized by recurrent attacks of anterior uveitis and raised intraocular pressure. Previous studies by our team and others have identified the genetic association of complement pathway genes with uveitis and glaucoma. This study aimed t...

AbstractOn the basis of the genetic analysis of F2 by F3 in the combination M13 × r “e” + o, the recombination frequencies between genetic factors of chromosome 6 (=6H) barley were estimated. The study included the following genes: r “e”(smooth awns “e”), sex 1 (shrunken endosperm xenia 1), o (orange lemma 1), gs 4 (glossy sheath 4), and Amy 1–7 (α...

Genetic variants in the angiotensin-converting enzyme ( ACE ) (rs4343), alpha-actinin-3 ( ACTN3 ) (rs1815739), adrenoceptor-beta-1 ( ADRB1 ) (rs1801253), and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator 1-alpha ( PPARGC1A ) (rs8192678) genes have previously been associated with elite athletic performance. This study assessed the inf...

Coronavirus is a family of viruses including alpha-, beta-, gamma-, delta-coronaviruses. Only alpha- and betacoronaviruses have been observed to infect humans. Past outbreaks of SARS-CoV and MERS-CoV, both betacoronavirus, are the result of a spillover from animals. Recently, a new strain termed SARS-CoV-2 emerged in December 2019 in Wuhan, China. ...

Acute and chronic inflammation often leads to fibrosis, which is also the common and final pathological outcome of chronic inflammatory diseases. To explore the common genes and pathogenic pathways among different fibrotic diseases, we collected all the reported genes of the eight fibrotic diseases: eye fibrosis, heart fibrosis, hepatic fibrosis, i...
BACKGROUND: The literature on associations of circulating concentrations of minerals and vitamins with risk of colorectal cancer is limited and inconsistent. Evidence from randomized controlled trials (RCTs) to support the efficacy of dietary modification or nutrient supplementation for colorectal cancer prevention is also limited. OBJECTIVES: To c...

Cereal grains provide half of the calories consumed by humans. In addition, they contain important compounds beneficial for health. During the last years, a broad spectrum of new cereal grain-derived products for dietary purposes emerged on the global food market. Special breeding programs aimed at cultivars utilizable for these new products have b...
Bacteria currently included in Rhizobium leguminosarum are too diverse to be considered a single species, so we can refer to this as a species complex (the Rlc). We have found 429 publicly available genome sequences that fall within the Rlc and these show that the Rlc is a distinct entity, well separated from other species in the genus. Its sister ...
