Abstract:

Discriminant analysis is a procedure for identifying the relationships between qualitative criterion variables and quantitative predictor variables. Data bases of genetic polymorphisms are currently available that group such polymorphisms by ethnic origin or nationality. Such information could be useful to entities that base financial determinations upon predictions of disease or to medical researchers who wish to target prevention and treatment to population groups. While the use of genetic information to make such determinations is unlawful in states and confidentiality and privacy concerns

Abstract:

Cichlid fishes from the East African Rift lakes Victoria, Tanganyika and Malawi represent a preeminent example of replicated and rapid evolutionary radiation. In this single natural system, numerous morphological (eg. jaw and tooth shape, color patterns, visual sensitivity), behavioral (eg. bower-building) and physiological (eg. development, neural patterning) phenotypes have emerged, much akin to a mutagenic screen. This dissertation encompasses three studies that seek to decipher the underpinnings of such rapid evolutionary diversification, investigated via the genetic variation in East Afri

Abstract:

A genetic approach to lowering protease (plasmin) levels in milk, requires the presence of polymorphism of bovine plasminogen. This study was conducted to determine to what extent genetic polymorphism exists in dairy cattle. Bovine plasminogen was first purified from Holstein cow plasma by affinity chromatography on Lysine-Sepharose and antibodies to bovine plasminogen were raised by monthly intramuscular injection of the isolated bovine plasminogen into rabbits. For plasminogen phenotyping, blood samples were collected at random from 50 Holstein and Ayrshire cattle, and plasminogen was isolat

The sequencing of the human genome and the ongoing discovery of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) provide us with new opportunities to understand the genetic basis for individual differences in susceptibility to disease, especially to cancer.

In this thesis, a genetic polymorphism and cancer susceptibility database has been constructed and provided a valuable resource used to better understand individual cancer risk.

Cytochrome P4502E1 (CYP2E1), the ethanol-inducible isoform of cytochrome P450 superfamily, catalyzes many low molecular weight endogenous and exogenous compounds, including ethanol, acetone, drugs like acetaminophen and chlorzoxazone, and industrial solvents like benzene and styrene, most of which are carcinogenic. Besides, it has a high capacity to produce reactive oxygen species. CYP2E1 is induced by ethanol and isoniazid, as well by some pathophysiological conditions like diabetes and starvation.

Introduzione: Recentemente, varianti minori di SNP del gene NOS1AP sono stati associati a prolungamento del QT e aumentata incidenza di morte improvvisa in pazienti LQT1. Il gene NOS1AP codifica per la proteina CAPON, che localizza NOS1 in prossimità del reticolo sarcoplasmico (SR). L' attività di NOS1 è importante per la modulazione mediate da NO di ICaL, dei canali RyR2 e di SERCA, interferendo così con la regolazione dell’handling del Ca2+ e la stabilità del SR. Perciò abbiamo ipotizzato che gli SNPs di NOS1AP possano alterare la localizzazione/funzione di NOS1 diminuendo la stabilità de

However, very little is known about the functional significance of the risk variants.

The aim of the present study was to establish whether polymorphisms in ADRB2 are similarly influential in primary human cell systems.
