Fasciola hepatica anthelmintic resistance may be associated with the catalytic activity of xenobiotic metabolizing enzymes. The gene expression of one of these enzymes, identified as carboxylesterase B (CestB), was previously described as inducible i...

The quality of poultry products depends on genotype, rearing system, and environment. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of different rearing systems on meat quality, amino acid composition, and breast muscle transcriptome from Luey...

The objective of this study was to evaluate the genetic diversity of the Tropical Milking Criollo cattle (TMC) breed in Mexico through parameters derived from pedigree and genomic information assessment. The pedigree file consisted of 3780 animals. S...

Clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) is the most frequent kind of kidney malignancy. Inflammation is a physiological response of the immune system to harmful stimuli. Notably, the role inflammation plays in ccRCC is still unknown. In this study, c...

Azorhizobium caulinodans ORS571 contains an 87.6 kb integrative and conjugative element (ICEAc) that conjugatively transfers symbiosis genes to other rhizobia. Many hypothetical redundant gene fragments (rgfs) are abundant in ICEAc, but their potenti...

The “thrifty genotype” hypothesis has thus far described the relationship between specific genes and the population’s resilience to food scarcity circumstances, but its link to the widespread prevalence of genetic diseases and metab...

Alport syndrome is a hereditary kidney disease caused by mutations in the three genes encoding for collagen IV: COL4A3, COL4A4, and COL4A5. Several mouse models have been created for the study of this disease with variable phenotypic outcomes. This r...

WRKY transcription factors (TFs) play key roles in plant defense responses through phytohormone signaling pathways. However, their functions in tropical fruit crops, especially in banana, remain largely unknown. Several WRKY genes from the model plan...

Genome-wide association studies (GWASs) have identified more than 500 loci for bone mineral density (BMD), but functional variants in these loci are less known. The aim of this study was to identify RNA modification-related SNPs (RNAm-SNPs) for BMD i...

(1) Background: analyses of gene networks can elucidate hematopoietic differentiation from single-cell gene expression data, but most algorithms generate only a single, static network. Because gene interactions change over time, it is biologically me...
