We report a prenatally diagnosed case of partial trisomy 2p and partial monosomy 3p, resulting from unbalanced translocation (2;3)(p25.1;p25.3) of paternal origin. Parents were non consanguineous Caucasians, with familial history of recurrent miscarriages on the father’s side. Detailed sonographic examination of the fetus showed a septated cystic h...

The Wingless/INT (WNT) signaling network has roles in renal cancer development. It was shown that the tumor-suppressor microRNA-124 (miR-124) is associated with the Wnt pathway. Thus, we aimed to measure miR-124 expression levels to evaluate whether it is a prognostic marker or a potential treatment strategy. Thirty tumor and 30 surrounding healthy...

The aim of this case report was to show the consequences of pregnancy in a cystic fibrosis (CF) patient with a rare mutation. We present a case of a patient with CF, pregnant for the second time, who gave birth to a healthy child. Her mutation status revealed the presence of relatively rare mutation c.3718-2477C>T that is associated with a milder p...

Modifying genes play an exclusive role in the genetic regulation of the risk of breast cancer development in women with a pathogenic variation of BRCA1 or BRCA2. Therefore, it has been suggested that TNFRSF11A, which is among those modifying genes present in breast cancer development, may have a significant role in patients with positive BRCA1 or B...

Genetic and epigenetic factors have an important role during the development of osteoporosis. Receptor activator of nuclear factor-κ B (NF-κB) (RANK)/receptor activator of NF-κB ligand (RANKL) pathway is important for the bone remodeling, and NFATC1 and FOS are the downtargets of this pathway. Here, we report methylation status of NFATC1 and FOS ge...

Multiple myeloma (MM) is one of the plasma cell-related hematological malignancies exceeding 10.0% of all marrow cells, and they make a paraprotein that is a marker of the disease. Myeloma is one of the most common types of hematological malignancies in humans. Genetic bio-markers have been used for prognostic markers in patients diagnosed with MM....

The article traces the evolution of over-the-top (OTT) services in order to analyse how the growing use of Internet distribution influences the structural conditions and institutional arrangements in Denmark. This story is told in four parts: first, I outline how the shift from postal services to e-mail restructured the conditions for asynchronous ...

Current estimates of the actual productivity of heavy construction machinery at a construction site are not supported by an appropriate and widely used methodology. Recently, for the purpose of estimating the actual productivity of heavy construction machinery, vision-based technologies are used. This paper emphasizes the importance of estimating a...
