Correlation of MDR1 gene polymorphisms with anesthetic effect of sevoflurane-remifentanil following pediatric tonsillectomy.

Background: The motive of this study was to investigate the collaboration between MDR1 gene polymorphisms and anesthetic effects following pediatric tonsillectomy.

Methods: All together 178 children undergoing tonsillectomy with preoperative sevoflurane-remifentanil anesthesia were selected. In order to determine MDR1 gene polymorphisms of 3435C > T, 1236C > T, and 2677G > T/A, polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism was used.

[Cloning and Evolutionary Analysis of Homologous Sequences of CYP86MF Gene in Cruciferae.].

In order to direct the construction of plant germplasms by elucidating the relatives among plants at the level of gene, CYP86MF gene analogues from 11 species of 6 genera in Cuciferae were respectively obtained by PCR strategy using gene specific primers designed from conserved regions of CYP86MF gene reported. Sequence comparisonindicated that the similarities among the genes at nucleotide level were over 80%, and the similarities at amino acid level remained above 70%. The differences between the genes at nucleotide and amino acid level between species were 1.
