Abstract Background Remote ischemic conditioning (RIC) is a procedure applied in a limb for triggering endogenous protective pathways in distant organs, namely brain or heart.... -
Guideline-based quality indicators—a systematic comparison of German and inte...
Abstract Background Evidence-based clinical practice guidelines (CPGs) are relevant sources for generating quality indicators (QIs). The objective of this study was to compare... -
Rice transcription factor OsMADS57 regulates plant height by modulating gibbe...
Abstract Background The MADS-box transcription factors mainly function in floral organ organogenesis and identity specification. Few research on their roles in vegetative growth... -
pH-mediated upregulation of AQP1 gene expression through the Spi-B transcript...
Abstract Background Bicarbonate-based peritoneal dialysis (PD) fluids enhance the migratory capacity and damage-repair ability of human peritoneal mesothelial cells by... -
Isolation and identification of a TetR family protein that regulates the biod...
Abstract Biodesulfurization helps in removal of sulfur from organosulfur present in petroleum fractions. All microorganisms isolated to date harbor a desulfurization operon... -
Distinct core promoter codes drive transcription initiation at key developmen...
Abstract Background Development is largely driven by transitions between transcriptional programs. The initiation of transcription at appropriate sites in the genome is a key... -
The impairment of small nerve fibers in severe sepsis and septic shock
Abstract Background A decrease of small nerve fibers in skin biopsies during the course of critical illness has been demonstrated recently. However, the diagnostic use of skin... -
A transgenerational role of the germline nuclear RNAi pathway in repressing h...
Abstract Background Environmental stress-induced transgenerational epigenetic effects have been observed in various model organisms and human. The capacity and mechanism of such... -
TSS-EMOTE, a refined protocol for a more complete and less biased global mapp...
Abstract Background Bacteria rely on efficient gene regulatory mechanisms to switch between genetic programs when they are facing new environments. Although this regulation can... -
Confident gene activity prediction based on single histone modification H2BK5...
Abstract Background The histones in the core of nucleosomes may be subject to covalent post-transcriptional modifications. These modifications are thought to correlate with and... -
The Dictyostelium discoideum homologue of Twinkle, Twm1, is a mitochondrial D...
Abstract Background DNA replication requires contributions from various proteins, such as DNA helicases; in mitochondria Twinkle is important for maintaining and replicating... -
Identification of a putative methyltransferase gene of Babesia bigemina as a ...
Abstract Background Bovine babesiosis is caused by apicomplexan pathogens of the genus Babesia such as B. bigemina and B. bovis. These tick-borne pathogens have a complex... -

Maternal influences on oral and faecal microbiota maturation in neonatal calv...
Abstract Background The dam is considered an important source of microbes for the calf; consequently, the development of calf microbiota may vary with farming system due to... -
Lifetime secondhand smoke exposure and childhood and adolescent asthma: findi...
Abstract Background Secondhand smoke (SHS) exposure is a modifiable risk factor associated with childhood asthma. Associations with adolescent asthma and the relevance of the... -
Osa-miR7695 enhances transcriptional priming in defense responses against the...
Abstract Background MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNAs that regulate gene expression at the post-transcriptional level in eukaryotes. In rice, MIR7695 expression is... -
Which potential harms and benefits of using ginger in the management of nause...
Abstract Background Nausea and vomiting of pregnancy (NVP) affect approximately 80â 90% of the pregnant women. Ginger (Zingiber officinale Roscoe) is the most widely used... -
Fused in sarcoma silences HIV gene transcription and maintains viral latency ...
Abstract Background The human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) cell reservoir is currently a main obstacle towards complete eradication of the virus. This infected pool is... -
High shear stress suppresses proliferation and migration but promotes apoptos...
Abstract Background Early neointimal hyperplasia of vein graft may be ameliorated via enhancing intravenous surface shear stress. Cellular processes including proliferation,... -
Prevalence of G6PD deficiency and Plasmodium falciparum parasites in asymptom...
Abstract Background Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency is an X-linked genetic disorder that results in impaired enzyme activity. Although G6PD deficiency is...
