Transcriptional identification of genes light-interacting in the extraretinal photoreceptors of the crayfish .

Crayfish serve as a model for studying the effect of environmental lighting on locomotor activity and neuroendocrine functions. The effects of light on this organism are mediated differentially by retinal and extraretinal photoreceptors located in the cerebroid ganglion and the pleonal nerve cord. However, some molecular aspects of the phototransduction cascade in the pleonal extraretinal photoreceptors remain unknown.

Association Between rs3833912/rs16944 SNPs and Risk for Cerebral Palsy in Mexican Children.

Perinatal asphyxia in the neonatal brain triggers a robust inflammatory response in which nitric oxide (NO) generation plays a hazardous role. Increased levels of NO can be maintained by the activity of inducible NO synthase (NOS2A) on its own or activated by IL-1beta (IL-1β) gene transcription and positive back stimulation of the NOS2 (CCTTT)n microsatellite by IL-1β, thus potentiating brain injury after ischemic perinatal asphyxia. We investigated whether the risk for cerebral palsy (CP) increases when an expansion of the - 2.

Mycobacterium tuberculosis as a cause of mandibular osteomyelitis in a young woman: a case report.

Background: Tuberculosis is considered an emerging disease worldwide; in the last 10 years, its incidence has increased to more than 9.6 million cases of active tuberculosis. In 2014, it resulted in 1.
