Effects of thyroxin and luteinizing hormone releasing hormone on reproductive physiology of Rohu (Labeo rohita): Insights into spawning performance, oocyte maturation, steroidogenesis, and follicular development genes.

As the global aquaculture industry grows, attention is increasingly turning towards assisted reproductive technologies. In this study, we examined the impact of D-Ala6, Pro9-Net-mGnRH (LHRHa: 0.4 mL/kg) and two doses (1 and 10 μg/kg fish) of thyroxin (T4) administered through a single injection on oocyte maturation, spawning performance, sex steroid hormone levels, as well as the expression of genes related to steroidogenesis and follicle development (ZP2, Cyp19a1a and SF-1) in Rohu (Labeo rohita).

Optimizing chitosan derived from Metapenaeus affinis: a novel anti-biofilm agent against Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a commonly found Gram-negative bacterium in healthcare facilities and is renowned for its ability to form biofilms and its virulence factors that are controlled by quorum sensing (QS) systems. The increasing prevalence of multidrug-resistant strains of this bacterium poses a significant challenge in the field of medicine. Consequently, the exploration of novel antimicrobial agents has become a top priority.

AHI1 gene mutation in a consanguineous Iranian family affected by Joubert syndrome: A case report.

This point of detected mutation could be considered as a novel mutational hotspot point that carried in patient ancestors. Moreover, the obtained results and family history suggest a precise genetic consulting and molecular prenatal evaluation for suspect individuals with a family history of mental and physical abnormalities.
