Asian Indian inversion deletion Gγ (Aγδβ)0-thalassemia is a rare entities characterized by high HbF. Due to interaction with various genetic factors, patients with Gγ (Aγδβ)0-thalassemia showed clinical variability. Here we are presenting the phenotypic expression of Gγ(Aγδβ)0 thalassemia under influence of various co-inherited factors. Patient with α-globin gene deletion had mild phenotype than the patient with β-globin mutations. Patient with alpha gene deletion were presenting clinical character like thalassemia intermedia while Gγ (Aγδβ)0-thalassemia patients with co- presence of beta thalssemia mutation clinically behaved like thalassemia major.

Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR) and CRISPR-associated (CAS) genes make up bacteria's adaptive immune system against bacteriophages. In this study, 675 sequences of isolates deposited in GenBank were analyzed in terms of diversity, occurrence, and evolution of the CRISPR-Cas system. This study investigated the presence, structural variations, phylogenetic relationships, and diversity of CRISPR-Cas systems in 675 strains.

Development of the 12-Base Short Dimeric Myogenetic Oligodeoxynucleotide That Induces Myogenic Differentiation.

BioTech (Basel)

Department of Agricultural and Life Sciences, Faculty of Agriculture, Shinshu University, 8304 Minami-minowa, Kami-ina 399-4598, Japan.

A myogenetic oligodeoxynucleotide (myoDN), iSN04 (5'-AGA TTA GGG TGA GGG TGA-3'), is a single-stranded 18-base telomeric DNA that serves as an anti-nucleolin aptamer and induces myogenic differentiation, which is expected to be a nucleic acid drug for the prevention of disease-associated muscle wasting. To improve the drug efficacy and synthesis cost of myoDN, shortening the sequence while maintaining its structure-based function is a major challenge. Here, we report the novel 12-base non-telomeric myoDN, iMyo01 (5'-TTG GGT GGG GAA-3'), which has comparable myogenic activity to iSN04.

Superficial zone chondrocytes can get compacted under physiological loading: A multiscale finite element analysis.

Acta Biomater

June 2023

Department of Mechanical Engineering, Columbia University, 500 West 120th Street, 220 S.W. Mudd, New York, NY 10027, USA; Department of Biomedical Engineering, Columbia University, 351 Engineering Terrace, 1210 Amsterdam Avenue, New York, NY 10027, USA. Electronic address:

Recent in vivo and in vitro studies have demonstrated that superficial zone (SZ) chondrocytes within articular layers of diarthrodial joints die under normal physiologic loading conditions. In order to further explore the implications of this observation in future investigations, we first needed to understand the mechanical environment of SZ chondrocytes that might cause them to die under physiological sliding contact conditions. In this study we performed a multiscale finite element analysis of articular contact to track the temporal evolution of a SZ chondrocyte's interstitial fluid pressure, hydraulic permeability, and volume under physiologic loading conditions.

Uveal melanoma (UM) remains the most common intraocular malignancy among diseases affecting the adult eye. The primary tumor disseminates to the liver in half of patients and leads to a 6 to 12-month survival rate, making UM a particularly aggressive type of cancer. Genomic analyses have led to the development of gene-expression profiles that can efficiently predict metastatic progression.
