(ELSEVIER, 2005-01-31)A subtractive hybridization approach was used to identify genes that are expressed at the beginning of gastrulation. We used tester DNA complimentary to RNA (cDNA) prepared from stages 6-7 embryos (gastrula) and excess ...
-
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2005-12-27)Oysters feed by removing particles from the water. This food is composed of complex mixtures of living microorganisms, detrtus, and inorganic particles that widely range in size. It has been speculated that some marine ...

(ELSEVIER, 2004-10)OBJECTIVE: We evaluated metabolic parameters in Chilean women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) who were carriers and non-carriers of the glycine-to-arginine substitution at codon 972 (Gly972Arg) variant of insulin ...
-
(AMER INST NUTRITION, 2004-02)Inorganic iron (Fe) absorption from the diet is controlled mainly in the intestinal tract where apical Fe uptake is inversely related to the Fe content in the enterocyte. Iron bis-glycine chelate is an iron compound that ...
-
(KLUWER ACADEMIC PUBL, 2004-10)Susceptibility to the type 1 diabetes is genetically controlled and there is an increased risk associated with the presence of some specific alleles of the human leukocyte antigens class II loci (DQA1 and DQB1 genes). The ...
-
(US DEPT HEALTH HUMAN SCIENCES PUBLIC HEALTH SCIENCE, NATL INST HEALTH, NATL INST ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH SCIENCES, 2004-12)Previous studies indicated that sex might influence the response to copper exposure. Cenaloplasmin (Cp) is an indicator of Cu status, but it is not clear whether and how it reflects changes of Cu status among healthy ...
-
(SOC MEDICA SANTIAGO, 2004-04)Background: Type 1 diabetes is an organ specific autoimmune disease whose incidence is increasing worldwide. A functional imbalance in cytokine production resulting in dominance of T helper (Th1) over Th2-type response has ...
-
(AMER SOC PLANT BIOLOGISTS, 2004-06)Sulfurtransferases (Str) comprise a group of enzymes widely distributed in archaea, eubacteria, and eukaryota which catalyze the transfer of a sulfur atom from suitable sulfur donors to nucleophilic sulfur acceptors. In ...
-
(US DEPT HEALTH HUMAN SCIENCES PUBLIC HEALTH SCIENCE, 2004-07)We assessed gastrointestinal effects in 1,365 adults exposed to either < 0.01 (controls), 2, 4, or 6 mg copper/L of drinking water for 2 months in a randomized, double-blind community-based study. The risk of symptoms ...
-
(SPRINGER, 2004)Several reports have found a relation between polymorphisms of the vitamin D receptor gene (VDR) and the development of type I diabetes. We have examined the association of three VDR polymorphism with type I diabetes in ...
-
(NORTH AMER ASSOC STUDY OBESITY, 2004-02)Objective: To assess the association between the Ala54Thr genetic polymorphism of the fatty acid-binding protein 2 (FABP2) gene with insulin resistance and obesity. Research Methods and Procedures: According to a sampling ...
