Thyroid gland carcinoma (TGC), though only 1% of all carcinomas, is the most common endocrine neoplasm with an increasing incidence since the 1990s. Of the TGC types, papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) is the most common and has the best overall progn...

Diffuse large B cell lymphoma, not otherwise specified (DLBCL, NOS) is the most common type of non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL). Significant efforts have been focused on utilizing advanced genomic technologies to further subclassify DLBCL, NOS into clinica...

DNA-based biosensors have emerged as cutting-edge tools with significant potential to revolutionize medical diagnostics and environmental monitoring. These biosensors leverage the specificity and sensitivity of DNA interactions to detect a wide range...

The detection of genetic alterations in patients with acute leukemias is essential for the targeting of more specific and effective therapies. Therefore, the aim of this study was to compare the sensitivity of Nested-PCR and RT-qPCR techniques in the...

The global prevalence of obesity among adults, adolescents, and children has increased to alarming levels, making this disease a serious public health problem. The etiology of obesity is complex and multifactorial. Currently, epigenetic alterations a...

The three 31 nucleotide minihelix tRNA evolution theorem describes the evolution of type I and type II tRNAs to the last nucleotide. In databases, type I and type II tRNA V loops (V for variable) were improperly aligned, but alignment based on the th...

This study begins by examining phenotypic variations in field growth among four parental Vietnamese rice lines, consisting of two Indica (PD211/GL37) and two Japonica (J23/SRA2-1) cultivars, which differ in life-cycle durations. Their phenotypic obse...

Oxidative stress-mediated biomolecular damage is a characteristic feature of ionizing radiation (IR) injury, leading to genomic instability and chronic health implications. Specifically, a dose- and linear energy transfer (LET)-dependent persistent i...

In forensic DNA laboratories, it is important to conduct internal validations of the commercially available kits of short tandem repeat (STR) loci and to investigate their individual and combined effectiveness. This study aims to report on a comparat...

Mammalian cell lines devoid of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) are indispensable in studies aimed at elucidating the contribution of mtDNA to various cellular processes or interactions between nuclear and mitochondrial genomes. However, the repertoire of t...

Quantitative PCR is a molecular technique for DNA quantification that depends on reaction efficiency and the Ct value (“cycle threshold”). However, the results are dependent on laboratory conditions and mathematical approaches. Thus, the...
