Despite the success of microarray technologies, serial analysis of gene expression (SAGE) still remains the only technique that allows an accurate quantitative and qualitative analysis of cell transcription in a variety of physiological and pathological conditions. Nevertheless, the efficiency of SAGE is limited by the numerous gel purification steps required and these increase the possibility of contamination and reduce or inhibit the activity of the enzymes used in the protocol. In order to eliminate this problem, we have modified the original protocol by adding a single purification step before NLA:III digestion of the ditags. This allows us to increase the yield of digested ditags without reducing the amount of DNA or affecting the subsequent concatemerization.

Background And Aim: Infertility in women has various causes, one of which is ovulation disorders. Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) affecting ovulation is a complex idiopathic disease in which genetic polymorphisms may be involved. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between IL-6 -174 G/C and IL-1A -889 G/A cytokine polymorphisms with polycystic ovary syndrome in a population of Iranian women.

Background: Preeclampsia is one of the three leading causes of worldwide maternal mortality. Oxidative stress-mediated endothelial damage is expected to be an ultimate common mechanism in the pathophysiology of preeclampsia. The role of bioamines is also well-established in the induction of preeclampsia.

Article Synopsis
- The Qinba region in China, known for its long history of Indica rice planting, is the focus of a study that aims to analyze the genetic diversity and population structure of Indica rice using various genetic markers.
- The research involved 93 rice samples and utilized a combination of phenotypic traits, SSR markers, and SNP data to assess genetic variation and identify patterns.
- Results showed high genetic diversity, with significant correlations among traits, and indicated that SNP markers provided the strongest correlation for genetic distance, compared to other methods used.

Aim: This study aimed to investigate the association of single nucleotide polymorphism of the () and () genes on the total water, ash, fat, protein, and cholesterol contents of sirloin ( muscle) and silverside ( muscle) meats of cull female cattle.
Materials And Methods: This analysis covered a total of 27 cull female cattle slaughtered at the Animal Slaughterhouse of Banda Aceh that was purposively selected based on hair color referred to the criteria described in the Decree of Ministry of Agriculture of the Republic of Indonesia. Genomic DNA was extracted from 25 mg of fresh meat using the spin column method before subjected to a polymerase chain reaction amplification using primer sets specific for 1346-bp and 275-bp fragments of and , respectively.
