The aim of this study was to determine the relationship between the polymorphisms −675 4G/5G and −844 G/A of PAI-1 gene and type 2 diabetes mellitus. Methods: A case control study of 491 diabetic and 400 healthy controls. Genotyping of the polymorphism −675 4G/5G was done by PCR-ASA (polymerase chain reaction, allele specific amplification), and the polymorphism −844 G/A was done with PCR-RFLP (restriction fragment length polymorphism), the allelic frequency is calculated with hardy-Weinberg law, the statistic analysis was done by SPSS version 10. Results: Higher frequencies of The genotypes 4G/4G (p = 0.01) and 4G/5G of polymorphism −675 4G/5G were seen in diabetic (p = 0.05) and higher frequencies of 5G/5G was seen in controls (p −844 G/A was seen in diabetics and G/G was seen in controls (p = 0.01). Conclusion: Our study found association between 4G allele of −675 4G/5G and A allele of −844 G/A of PAI-1 gene and having type 2 diabetes mellitus in Tunisian population.展开更多

Its molecular structure comprises of a silver center coordinated to two nitrogen atoms from two 4,5-dihydro-1H-benzo[g]indazole molecule giving rise to a cationic complex entity, [Ag(N2C11H10)2]+ with as counter ion. The bulk structure is consolidated by N–H…O, C–H…π, Ag…π and Ag…O intermolecular interactions, thus generating a pseudo-helical network. The optimized structure, frontier molecular orbitals (HOMO and LUMO) and global reactivity descriptors were investigated by performing DFT calculations.展开更多
Objective:To conduct a comparative analysis of the VP4 gene sequences of Indian wild type (06361,0613158,061060 and 0715880) and cell culture adapted(06361-CA,0613158-CA.061060- CA and 0715880-CA) G1P[8]rotavirus stra...Objective:To conduct a comparative analysis of the VP4 gene sequences of Indian wild type (06361,0613158,061060 and 0715880) and cell culture adapted(06361-CA,0613158-CA.061060- CA and 0715880-CA) G1P[8]rotavirus strains.Methods:Full-length VP4 genes of each of the four wild type G1P[8]rotavirus strains and their cell culture adapted counterparts displaying consistent cytopathic effect were subjected to RT-PCR amplification and nucleotide sequencing. Results:All four cell culture adapted G1P[8]rotavirus strains showed nucleotide and amino acid substitutions in the VP4 gene as compared to their wild type strains.The number of substitutions however,varied from 1-64 and 1-13 respectively.The substitutions were distributed in both VP5* and VP8* subunits of VP4 gene respectively of permeabilizalion and hemagglutinaling activity. The presence of unique amino acid substitutions was identified in two of the four wild type(V377G. S387N in 061060 and 1644L in 0715880) and all four cell culture adapted(A46V in 0613158-CA. T60R in 06361-CA,L237V.G389V and Q480H in 061060-CA and S615G and T625P in 0715880-CA) strains for the first time in the VP4 gene of P[8]specificity.Amino acid substitutions generated increase in the hydrophilicity in the cell culture adapted rotavirus strains as compared to their corresponding wild type strains.Conclusions:Amino acid substitutions detected in the VP4 genes of G1P[8]rotavirus strains from this study together with those from other studies highlight occurrence of only strain and/or host specific substitutions during cell culture adaptation. Further evaluation of such substitutions for their role in attenuation,immunogenicity and conformation is needed for the development of newer rolavirus vaccines.展开更多

The thrombophilicgenetic factors （THRGFs）, PAI-1 4G-4G, MTHFR677TT, V Leiden 506Q and prothrombin 20210A,were studied as risk factors in 1079 patients with livercirrhosis （LC）, enrolled from January 2000 to January2014.METHODS： All Caucasian LC patients consecutivelyobserved in a seven year period were included; thepresence of portal vein thrombosis （PVT） and BuddChiari syndrome （BCS） was registered. The differencesbetween the proportions of each THRGF with regardto the presence or absence of viral etiology and thefrequencies of the THRGF genotypes with those predictedin a population by the Hardy-Weinberg equilibriumwere registered.RESULTS： Four hundred and seventeen/one thousandand seventy-six patients （38.6%） showed thrombophilia：217 PAI-1 4G-4G, 176 MTHFR C677TT, 71 V Leidenfactor and 41 prothrombin G20210 A, 84 with morethan 1 THRGF; 350 presented with no viral liver cirrhosis（NVLC） and 729 with, called viral liver cirrhosis （VLC）,of whom 56 patients were hepatitis C virus ＋ hepatitisB virus. PAI-1 4G-4G, MTHFR C677TT, the presence ofat least one TRHGF and the presence of 〉 1 THRGF,were statistically more frequent in patients with NVLC vspatients with VLC： All χ 2 〉 3.85 and P 〈 0.05. Patientswith PVT and/or BCS with at least one TRHGF were189/352 （53.7%）. The Hardy-Weinberg of PAI-1 andMTHFR 677 genotypes deviated from that expectedfrom a population in equilibrium in patients with NVLC（respectively χ 2 = 39.3; P 〈 0.000 and χ 2 = 27.94; P 〈0.05）, whereas the equilibrium was respected in VLC.CONCLUSION： MTHFR 677TT was nearly twofold andPAI-1 4G-4G more than threefold more frequently foundin NVLC vs patients with VLC; the Hardy-Weinbergequilibrium of these two polymorphisms confirms thisdata in NVLC. We suggest that PAI-1 4G-4G and MTHFR677TT could be considered as factors of fibrosis andthrombosis mechanisms, increasing the inflammationresponse, and causing the hepatic fibrosis and augmentedintrahepatic vascular resistance typical of LC. PAI-14G-4G and MTHFR 677TT screening of LC patientscould be useful, mainly in those with NVLC, to identifypatients in which new drug therapies based on theattenuation of the hepatic stellate cells activation orother mechanisms could be more easily evaluated.展开更多

The salt crystallizes in the triclinic space group P-1 with the parameters: a = 7.776 ?, b = 8.676 ?, c = 9.226 ?, α = 69.27° β = 89.86°, γ = 74.50°, V = 558.02 ?3, Z = 1. In the structure, the silver center is coordinated to two nitrogen atoms from two 4,5-dihydro-1H-benzo[g]indazole ligands, forming a centrosymmetric complex cation, [Ag(N2H10C11)2]+, with a linear coordination geometry around the silver center. The hexafluorophosphate ion, , acts as counter anion. The crystal packing is governed by N-H···F and C-H···F hydrogen bonds that interconnect the ionic constituents and Ag···F and Ag···π interactions help for the stabilization of the packing. The optimized structure was obtained at B3LYP/LanL2DZ level in the gas phase. The stability and reactivity of the structure were studied using respectively HOMO-LUMO gap and electronic global quantities (ionization potential (I) and electron affinity (A)) as descriptors.展开更多
