Article Synopsis
  • - The study investigates the relationship between the NOS2 gene polymorphism rs2297518 and colorectal cancer (CRC), focusing on how it may differ between right-sided and left-sided colon cancers as well as rectal cancers.
  • - Researchers analyzed 199 CRC patients and 120 controls using a TaqMan genotyping assay to assess the frequency of the minor allele A in the NOS2 genotype across various tumor locations.
  • - Findings indicate that the minor allele A is significantly more common in right-sided CRC compared to left-sided and rectal cancers, suggesting that this genetic variant plays a role in the tumor's localization and development.

As the outcome of COVID-19 is associated with oxidative stress, it is highly probable that polymorphisms of genes related to oxidative stress were associated with susceptibility and severity of COVID-19. The aim of the study was to assess the association of glutathione S-transferases (GSTs) gene polymorphisms with COVID-19 severity in previously vaccinated and unvaccinated Polish patients with confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection. A total of 92 not vaccinated and 84 vaccinated patients hospitalized due to COVID-19 were included.

Composition of lactic acid bacteria and bifidobacteria in raw milk and home-made milk products has been analyzed using real-time PCR (quantitative PCR) with genus-specific primers to Enterococcus, Lactobacillus and Bifidobacteria. Bacteria belonging to these genera have been revealed in all samples analyzed (milk, sour cream, cottage cheese). It has been shown that the representatives of Enterococcus and Lactobacillus genera dominated in the samples analyzed (10(3)-10(7) genome equivalent/ml (mg)).

A diagnostic kit for detection of avian influenza virus by real-time polymerase chain reaction was developed. This kit allows to identify the influenza viruses type A and highly pathogenic strain of avian influenza virus H5N1. The diagnostic kit is universal and adopted for ABI PRISM SDS (Applied Biosystems), RotorGene (Corbett Research) and iQCycler (BioRad) PCR machines.
