IMMUNOHISTOCHEMICAL DETECTION OF A UNIQUE PROTEIN WITHIN CELLS OF SNAKES HAVING INCLUSION BODY DISEASE, A WORLD-WIDE DISEASE SEEN IN MEMBERS OF THE FAMILIES BOIDAE AND PYTHONIDAE.

Immunohistochemical detection of a unique protein within cells of snakes having inclusion body disease, a world-wide disease seen in members of the families Boidae and Pythonidae.

Inclusion body disease (IBD) is a worldwide disease in captive boa constrictors (boa constrictor) and occasionally in other snakes of the families Boidae and Pythonidae.The exact causative agent(s) and pathogenesis are not yet fully understood.Currently, diagnosis of IBD is based on the light microscopic identification of eosinophilic intracytoplas

Application of gene network analysis techniques identifies AXIN1/PDIA2 and endoglin haplotypes associated with bicuspid aortic valve.

Bicuspid Aortic Valve (BAV) is a highly heritable congenital heart defect.The low frequency of BAV (1% of general population) limits our ability to perform genome-wide association studies.We present the application of four a priori SNP selection techniques, reducing the multiple-testing penalty by restricting analysis to SNPs relevant to BAV in a g

Molecular, Metabolic, and Physiological Responses to Progressive Biotic Stress Caused by Cucumber Mosaic Virus and Turnip Mosaic Virus in Saffron

The economic value of the saffron stigma is primarily due Shampoo to three crucial apocarotenoids: crocin, picrocrocin, and safranal, which contribute to its color, flavor, and aroma.These compounds make saffron highly valuable in various industries.Plant viruses like the cucumber mosaic virus (CMV) and turnip mosaic virus (TuMV) are significant th
