We present a draft sequence of the genome of Aedes aegypti, the primary vector for yellow
fever and dengue fever, which at ∼1376 million base pairs is about 5 times the size of the …

We have developed a simple procedure based on reassociation kinetics that can reduce
effectively the high variation in abundance among the clones of a cDNA library that represent …

Chronic diseases (ie, noncommunicable diseases), mainly cardiovascular disease, cancer,
respiratory diseases and type-2-diabetes, are now the leading cause of death, disability and …

Background Dinoflagellates are important marine primary producers and grazers and cause
toxic "red tides". These taxa are characterized by many unique features such as immense …

A limited number of reports have investigated the role of microRNAs in osteosarcoma. In this
study, we performed miRNA expression profiling of osteosarcoma cell lines, tumor samples, …

Introduction We have examined expression of microRNAs (miRNAs) in ependymomas to
identify molecular markers of value for clinical management. miRNAs are non-coding RNAs …

Genomic DNA methylation contributes substantively to transcriptional regulations that
underlie mammalian development and cellular differentiation. Much effort has been made to …

The mechanism(s) behind folate rescue of neural tube closure are not well understood. In
this study we show that maternal intake of folate prior to conception reverses the proliferation …

The ventromedial hypothalamic nucleus (VMH) plays an important role in the control of feeding
and energy homeostasis. In contrast to other hypothalamic nuclei that are also known to …

DNA methylation, the only known covalent modification of mammalian DNA, occurs primarily
in CpG dinucleotides. 51% of CpGs in the human genome reside within repeats, and 25% …
