Résumé Lors des dernières élections françaises de 2004, la question de la place et du rôle des candidats d’origine maghrébine a été un enjeu controversé, relançant le débat sur le modèle universaliste français. Dans ce contexte, nous nous sommes interrogée sur l’importance accordée à l’ethnicité par les candidats d’origine maghrébine dans leur discours, à travers l’étude de leurs professions de foi et la réalisation d’entretiens. Trois types d’attitudes envers l’ethnicité ont ainsi été observés. Si la majorité des candidats ne mentionne aucun élément d’ordre ethnique, certains l’utilisent ponc

The benefit of PARP inhibitor olaparib in relapsed and advanced high-grade serous ovarian carcinoma (HGSOC) is well established especially in BRCA1/2 mutation carriers. Identification of additional biomarkers can help expand the population of patients most likely to benefit from olaparib treatment. To identify candidate markers of olaparib response we analyzed genomic and in vitro olaparib response data from two independent groups of cancer cell lines. Using pan-cancer cell lines (n = 896) from the Genomics of Drug Sensitivity in Cancer database, we applied linear regression methods to identif

Abstract:
Ovarian folliculogenesis corresponds to the development of follicles leading to either ovulation or degeneration, this latter process being called atresia. Even if atresia involves apoptosis, its mechanism is not well understood. The objective of this study was to analyze global gene expression in pig granulosa cells of ovarian follicles during atresia. The transcriptome analysis was performed on a 9,216 cDNA microarray to identify gene networks and candidate genes involved in pig ovarian follicular atresia. We found 1,684 significantly regulated genes to be differentially regulated between sm

European canker, caused by the necrotrophic fungal phytopathogen Neonectria ditissima, is one of the most damaging apple diseases worldwide. An understanding of the molecular basis of N. ditissima virulence is currently lacking. Identification of genes with an up-regulation of expression during infection, which are therefore probably involved in virulence, is a first step towards this understanding. Reverse transcription quantitative real-time PCR (RT-qPCR) can be used to identify these candidate virulence genes, but relies on the use of reference genes for relative gene expression data normal

Root network structure plays a crucial role in growth and development processes in rice. Longer, more branched root structures help plants to assimilate water and nutrition from soil, support robust plant growth, and improve resilience to stresses such as disease. Understanding the molecular basis of root development through screening of root-related traits in rice germplasms is critical to future rice breeding programs. This study used a small germplasm collection of 137 rice varieties chosen from the Korean rice core set (KRICE_CORE) to identify loci linked to root development. Two million h

Abstract Olfactory neuronal function depends on the expression and proper regulation of odorant receptor (OR) genes. Previous studies have identified 54 putative intergenic enhancers within or flanking 40 mouse OR clusters. At least 2 of these putative enhancers have been shown to regulate the expression of a small subset of proximal OR genes. In recognition of the large size of the mouse OR gene family (~1400 OR genes distributed across multiple chromosomal loci), it is likely that there remain many additional not-as-yet discovered OR enhancers.

The identification of disease genes from candidated regions is one of the most important tasks in bioinformatics research. Most approaches based on function annotations cannot be used to identify genes for diseases without any known pathogenic genes or related function annotations.

Its performance was tested with a set of 1506 genes involved in 1147 disease phenotypes derived from the morbid map table in the OMIM database. The results show that, on average,

While the population genetics, molecular evolution and physiological effects of seminal fluid proteins have been examined, the genetics and evolution of the female side of these post-mating interactions is unexplored in spite of wo
