Insights into molecular features of venerupis decussata oocytes: A microarray-based study
(
Public Library of Science
, 2014 , Article)
The production of Venerupis decussata relies on wild seed collection, which has been recently compromised due to recruitment failure and severe mortalities. To address this issue and provide an alternative source of seed, ...
RPL13A and EEF1A1 Are Suitable Reference Genes for qPCR during Adipocyte Differentiation of Vascular Stromal Cells from Patients with Different BMI and HOMA-IR
(
Public Library of Science (PLoS)
, 2016 , Article)
Real-time or quantitative PCR (qPCR) is a useful technique that requires reliable reference genes for data normalization in gene expression analysis. Adipogenesis is among the biological processes suitable for this technique. ...
Promoter–enhancer looping at the PPARγ2 locus during adipogenic differentiation requires the Prmt5 methyltransferase
(
Oxford University Press
, 2016 , Article)
PPARγ2 is a critical lineage-determining transcription factor that is essential for adipogenic differentiation. Here we report characterization of the three-dimensional structure of the PPARγ2 locus after the onset of ...

(
Qatar University Press
, 2021 , Poster)
Cadmium is one of the major environmental pollutants associated with an increment in industrial and urbanization activities. It has health consequences when it reaches the human diet through the soil, water, and plant. ...

Distinct transcriptional responses of mouse sensory neurons in models of human chronic pain conditions [version 1; referees: 2 approved]
(
F1000 Research Ltd
, 2018 , Article)
Background: Sensory neurons play an essential role in almost all pain conditions, and have recently been classified into distinct subsets on the basis of their transcriptomes. Here we have analysed alterations in dorsal ...
In-site and ex-site date palm exposure to heavy metals involved infra-individual biomarkers upregulation
(
Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI)

As a tree of considerable importance in arid regions—date palm, Phoenix dactylifera L. survival in contaminated areas of Sfax city has drawn our attention. Leaf samples of the plants grown in the study area showed high ...
Prenatal psychological distress and 11β-HSD2 gene expression in human placentas: Systematic review and meta-analysis
(
Elsevier
, 2024 , Article Review)
BackgroundThe placenta acts as a buffer to regulate the degree of fetal exposure to maternal cortisol through the 11-Beta Hydroxysteroid Dehydrogenase isoenzyme type 2 (11-β HSD2) enzyme. We conducted a systematic review ...
Pre treatment of melatonin rescues cotton seedlings from cadmium toxicity by regulating key physio-biochemical and molecular pathways
(
Elsevier
, 2023 , Article)
Melatonin, a plant/animal origin hormone, regulates plant response to abiotic stresses by protecting them from oxidative damage. This study identified physiochemical and molecular mechanism of melatonin-induced cadmium ...
