Genome-wide characterization and expression analysis of GATA transcription factors under combination of light wavelengths and drought stress in potato.

GATA is one of the prominent transcription factor families conserved among many organisms in eukaryotes and has different biological roles in many pathways, particularly in light regulation in plants. Although GATA transcription factors (TFs) have been identified in different crop species, their roles in abiotic stress tolerance have not been studied in potato. In this study, we identified 32 GATA TFs in potato () by in silico analyses, and expression levels of selected six genes were investigated in drought-tolerant (Sante) and sensitive (Agria) cultivars under light, drought, and combined (light + drought) stress conditions.

Ghost image of an ectopic tooth in maxillary sinus: A diagnostic challenge.

Ghost images are artefacts of anatomical structures or foreign objects that oral and maxillofacial surgeons should take into consideration to prevent misdiagnosis and mistreatment. A 38-year-old male patient referred to our clinic for dental implant treatment. Orthopantomograph (OPG) revealed an impacted distomolar at the apex of maxillary right third molar and an ectopic supernumerary tooth in the left maxillary sinus.

3D evaluation of the effect of disinfectants on dimensional accuracy and stability of two elastomeric impression materials.

The aim of this study was to determine and compare the dimensional changes of polyether and vinyl polyether siloxane impression materials under immersion disinfection with two different disinfectants in three time periods. Impressions were obtained from an edentulous master model. Sodium hypochlorite (5.

Finite-Element Analysis of a New Designed Miniplate which is Used via Intraoral Approach to the Mandible Angle Fracture: Comparison of the Different Fixation Techniques.

The mandible is the largest facial bone as well as the most commonly fractured bone in the maxillofacial region. Despite numerous studies conducted to identify optimal treatment modalities and plates configurations for intraoral and transoral approaches, no definitive conclusion has been reached. This study used finite element analysis (FEA) to assess 4 scenarios for treatment of an angle fracture (6-hole noncompression miniplate; 6-hole single plate/Champy's technique, 3D strut plate; 2 parallel 4-hole noncompression miniplates).

Thymoquinone attenuates trauma induced spinal cord damage in an animal model.

Background: Spinal cord injury (SCI) is one of the most devastating conditions leading to neurological impairment and disabilities. The aim of the study was to investigate the potential neuroprotective effect of thymoquinone (TQ) histopathologically in an experimental model of traumatic spinal cord injury (SCI).

Methods: Twenty-four male Wistar albino rats were randomly divided into 4 groups: control group; SCI group; SCI-induced and 10 mg/kg/day TQ administered group; SCI-induced and 30 mg/kg/day TQ administered group.
