We study Einstein warped product spaces. As a result, we prove the following: if $M$ is an space with nonpositive scalar curvature and compact base, then simply Riemannian space.
Glioblastomas are morphologically and genetically heterogeneous, but little is known about the regional patterns of genomic imbalance within glioblastomas. We recently established a reliable whole genome amplification (WGA) method to randomly amplify DNA from paraffin-embedded histological sections with minimum bias [Huang et al (J Mol Diagn 11: 109-116, 2009)]. In this study, chromosomal was assessed by array comparative hybridization (CGH; Agilent 105K, Technologies, Santa Clara, CA, USA),...
Abstract Honey bees are both important pollinators and model insects due to their highly developed sociality colony management. To better understand the molecular mechanisms underlying honey bee management, it is investigate expression of genes putatively involved in physiology. Although quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) can be used quantify relative target genes, internal reference (which stably expressed across different conditions) must first identified ensure accurate normalisation...
The performance of thermal cyclers for polymerase chain reactions (PCR) is great concern in terms the reliability PCR-based assays, particularly when rapid cycling conditions are applied to small volume reactions. In this work, precision temperature controls during was measured 19 commercial 8 different models. temperatures test solutions specific locations each block were simultaneously monitored at 1 s intervals cycling. A temperature-sensitive multiplex PCR run parallel assess undesirable...
Honey bee is not only considered an important pollinator in agriculture, but also widely used as a model insect biological sciences, thanks to its highly evolved sociality, specialization of labor division, and flexibility colony management. For intensive investigation the seasonal labor-dependent expression patterns genes, accurate quantification target gene transcription level fundamental step. To date, quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) has been for rapid transcripts, with reliable...
Utilizing chemical agents in pest management modern agricultural practices has been the predominant approach since advent of synthetic insecticides. However, insecticide resistance is an emerging issue, as populations evolve to survive exposure chemicals that were once effective controlling them, underlining need for advanced and innovative approaches managing pests. In insects, microRNAs (miRNAs) serve key regulators a wide range biological functions, characterized by their dynamic...
ABSTRACT Various miticides are being applied to apiaries prevent mites. However, abuse of could seriously damage bee health. To understand the physiological response honey bees caused by inappropriate exposure miticides, it is necessary identify marker genes whose expression alters in following miticides. Although quantitative real‐time polymerase chain reaction (qRT‐PCR) widely used for gene analysis, selecting appropriate stably expressed reference gene(s) across various conditions...
Several studies have investigated the molecular drivers and therapeutic targets in adult soft tissue sarcomas. However, such are limited by genomic heterogeneity rarity of sarcomas, particularly those with complex unbalanced karyotypes. Additional biomarkers needed across sarcoma types to improve strategies. To investigate characteristics karyotype sarcomas (CKSs) for targets, we performed profiling. The mutational landscape showed that TP53, ATRX, PTEN genes were highly mutated. CKS samples...
Identification of Helicotylenchus species is very challenging due to phenotypic plasticity and existence cryptic complexes. Recently, the use rDNA barcodes has proven be useful for identification Helicotylenchus. Molecular markers are a quick diagnostic tool crucial discriminating related resolving complexes within this speciose genus. However, DNA barcoding not an error-free approach. The public databases appear marred by incorrect sequences, arising from sequencing errors, mislabeling,...
Abstract There are currently >300 malaria cases reported annually in the Republic of Korea (ROK), with most attributed to exposure northern Gangwon and Gyeonggi provinces near demilitarized zone (DMZ). The species diversity infection rate were determined for a sample Anopheles mosquitoes collected from May early November 2020 six sites high-risk area in/near DMZ two low-risk areas southern province using Mosquito Magnet traps ROK. A total 1864 spp. identified by PCR. Overall, An....
Two taxonomically similar Drosophila species, melanogaster and suzukii, are known to have distinct habitats: D. is mostly found near overripe fermented fruits, whereas suzukii attracted fresh fruits. Since chemical concentrations typically higher in fruits than hypothesized be of volatiles suzukii. Therefore, the preferences two flies were compared via Y-tube olfactometer assays electroantennogram (EAG) experiments using various 2-phenylethanol, ethanol, acetic acid. exhibited a preference...
