Twelve new microsatellite loci of Eurasian perch Perca fluviatilis Linnaeus, 1758.

The Eurasian perch (Perca fluviatilis Linnaeus, 1758) is native to almost entire Eurasia. For over the last two decades, this species became an important candidate for intensive freshwater aquaculture due to its high consumer's acceptance and overall market value. Hence, the intensive production of Eurasian perch has increased considerably allowing effective domestication; there is still a need for the development of effective selective breeding programmes allowing its further expansion.

Survival analysis in breast cancer using proteomic data from four independent datasets.

Breast cancer clinical treatment selection is based on the immunohistochemical determination of four protein biomarkers: ESR1, PGR, HER2, and MKI67. Our aim was to correlate immunohistochemical results to proteome-level technologies in measuring the expression of these markers. We also aimed to integrate available proteome-level breast cancer datasets to identify and validate new prognostic biomarker candidates.

Predictive biomarkers of platinum and taxane resistance using the transcriptomic data of 1816 ovarian cancer patients.

Objective: The first-line chemotherapy for ovarian cancer is based on a combination of platinum and taxane. To date, no reliable predictive biomarker has been recognized that is capable of identifying patients with pre-existing resistance to these agents. Here, we have established an integrated database and identified the most significant biomarker candidates for chemotherapy resistance in serous ovarian cancer.

[CHEK1 expression and inhibitors in TP53 mutant cancer].

The most frequently mutated gene in human tumors is TP53 and its mutation significantly deteriorates patients' survival. However, to date no targeted therapy is established for TP53 mutated tumors. Here, our aim was to identify druggable kinases with higher expression in TP53 mutated tumors, as well as relate these to altered prognosis.

Development and characterization of 49 novel microsatellite markers in the African catfish, Clarias gariepinus (Burchell, 1822).

The African catfish or sharp tooth catfish (Clarias gariepinus) is one of the important species (due to its high environmental tolerance and easily controllable breeding habits) that can significantly contribute to reducing hunger in many countries. It is farmed in numerous African, Asian, and European countries. Moreover, during the last decades its production has grown significantly worldwide.

The genetic status of the Hungarian brown trout populations: exploration of a blind spot on the European map of studies.

Background: Analyses of the control region sequences of European brown trout populations' mitrochondrial DNA have revealed five main evolutionary lineages (Atlantic, Danubian, Mediterranean, Adriatic, Marble) mostly relating to the main water basins; however, the hybridization between lineages were increasingly reported. Due to the hydrogeography of Hungary, wild populations should theoretically belong to the Danubian lineage, however, this has not been verified by genetic studies.

Methods: In our study multiple molecular marker sets (mitochondrial sequence, microsatellites, PCR-RFLP of nuclear markers and sex marker) were used to investigate the genetic composition and population genetics of the brown trout populations in two broodstocks, six wild streams in Hungary and one Serbian population.

A snapshot of 3649 Web-based services published between 1994 and 2017 shows a decrease in availability after 2 years.

Background: The long-term availability of online Web services is of utmost importance to ensure reproducibility of analytical results. However, because of lack of maintenance following acceptance, many servers become unavailable after a short period of time. Our aim was to monitor the accessibility and the decay rate of published Web services as well as to determine the factors underlying trends changes.
