Article Synopsis
- The research focuses on autophagy-associated genes and MicroRNAs (miRs) in glioma prognosis within the Pakistani population, exploring their roles in glioma development and patient survival.
- Utilizing techniques like real-time PCR and immunohistochemistry, the study analyzed expression levels of genes and miRs in glioma tissues, resulting in comprehensive statistical evaluations tailored to low- and high-grade gliomas.
- Findings showed significant gender and age demographics, with glioblastoma and astrocytoma being common subtypes, while revealing correlations between key prognostic markers and clinicopathological factors, alongside unique molecular signatures related to autophagy in different glioma grades.
Attenuated familial adenomatous polyposis (AFAP) or attenuated adenomatous polyposis coli (AAPC) is defined as the milder polyposis phenotype of classic familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP). FAP syndromes are caused by germline mutations in the adenomatous polyposis coli (APC) gene. AFAP is an inherited autosomal dominant with predominant mutations at the far proximal (5') end of the APC gene.

Sub-group Leukocytoclastic vasculitis (LCV) refers to small blood vessel inflammation, which involves cutaneous capillaries and venules. To date, there have been myriad primary and secondary probable causes of LCV.

Here, implicating nutrigenomic approach, phytobiotics and organic acids were used to evaluate ghrelin gene expression levels, gut microflora composition, performance parameters and intestinal histomorphological changes in broiler chickens. One-day-old chicks (n = 315) were reared for 42 days and distributed randomly into five experimental groups; each with three replicates (21 birds per replicate).
