ABSTRACT The genetic constitution of two endogamous caste populations viz., the Brahmin (n=250) and Rajput (n=250) of Kangra district of the North Indian state of Himachal Pradesh was studied using six autosomal Alu InDel (insertion/deletion) markers viz., ACE, APO, PV92, CD4, PLAT, and TPA25 All markers were found to be polymorphic. Except for Alu APO and PV92 in the Rajput, genotype frequencies of other markers were in the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium in both the populations. The average heterozygosity (H) was observed higher in the Brahmin (0.4134) compared to the Rajput (0.3809) and the degree of genic differentiation was low between them (GST =0.00898). The genetic distance analysis revealed close genetic affinities of the present Rajput population with the Gaddi Rajput and Gaddi Brahmin populations reported earlier from the district but the present Brahmin population was found distant from them.

ABSTRACT Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is endocrine reproductive disorder which causes oligomenorrhea/ amenorrhea, infertility, type II diabetes. The present study aims in CYP19A1 polymorphism rs700519 (C/T) identification that elevates androgen among PCOS females in Quetta, Pakistan. Cross-sectional study involved enrollment of 100 control and 100 affected females. Blood samples were collected for genetic and hormonal analysis. The samples were amplified via ARMS PCR and analyzed by sequencing. The frequency of CC genotype in control and PCOS group was 48 percent and 33 percent. For CT, it was 52 percent and 67 percent. In control group, the allele frequency for C and T was 0.74 and 0.26. In PCOS group, it was 0.67 and 0.33 for C and T, respectively. The Pearson Chi-Square p=0.031 (p<0.05) at 95% Confidence Interval inferred a significant difference between the observed genotypes. The study inferred that CT genotype is a risk factor for PCOS progression in the population of Quetta.

ABSTRACT The study aimed to determine the expressions of SP1 and SP3 and the clinic pathological characteristics of patients, and the correlation between the expressions of SP1 and SP3 in colorectal cancer (CRC). In this study, tumour and adjacent non-tumour tissue samples were obtained from 41 individuals with CRC. SP1 and SP3 expressions were performed using Quantitative Real-Time Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-qPCR). According to the results of our study, there was no statistically significant difference in SP1 and SP3 expression levels between tumour tissues and non-tumour tissues (p>0.05), as well as no association with clinic pathological features of patients. In addition, a high positive correlation was found between the expressions of SP1 and SP3 genes in CRC (p=0.01). Consequently, it can be said that there is a correlation between SP1 and SP3 expressions, but SP1 and SP3 expressions are not related to CRC carcinogenesis.

ABSTRACT This study investigated expression profiles and mechanisms of circular RNAs on preeclampsia patients between 7-14 weeks. RNA sequencing demonstrated 12,579 circRNAs (7,684 upregulated and 4,895 downregulated) expressed differentially in 8 pairs of plasma samples from preeclampsia patients and healthy controls. Predicted 15 upregulated and 9 downregulated circRNAs then were assessed through qRT-PCR in 50 preeclampsia patients and 30 controls. Differentially expressed circRNAs in preeclampsia patients and controls were analyzed by RNA sequencing and gene ontology, Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes and circRNA-miRNA-mRNA network analyzed data. Hsa_circ_0046677 and hsa_circ_0029703 were markedly increased in preeclampsia patients. Receiver operator characteristic curve analysis indicated the area under the curve was 0.083 for hsa_circ_0046677 and 0.965 for hsa_circ_00429703 while the sensitivity and specificity of these two genes were 78 percent, 88 percent and 83 percent, 93 percent, respectively. Hsa_circ_0046677 and hsa_circ_00429703 had enormous potentials for diagnosing preeclampsia of pregnant women in the first trimester.

ABSTRACT Hepatitis C virus (HCV) causes severe liver infection and is spread through blood transmission from infected person to healthy individuals. HCV is more common in less developed countries due to poor hygienic conditions. This condition can be worse in pregnant women, where HCV can infect the fetus and may lead to chronic infections and may cause cirrhosis and carcinoma. Therefore, the purpose of this research was to study the distribution and prevalence of HCV in pregnant women in the Pakistani population, where such data are unavailable. Blood from 72 HCV-positive pregnant women was collected, RNA was extracted and nested PCR was performed for genotyping using genotypespecific primers. The most frequent genotype was found to be 3a (79%), followed by 3b (4%), 1a (4%), 1b (2%) and mixed genotypes (2%). The severity of HCV, reaction to therapy, and prognosis depend on several factors and one of the most important factors is genotype. Hence, this study will pave the way for the adoption of efficient therapeutic models to control HCV in high-risk populations.

ABSTRACT The researchers aimed in highlighting the correlations of serum MMP-9, TIMP-1, TGF-β1 and bFGF levels with atrial fibrillation (AF) within diseased persons showing no structural heart ailment. A total of 236 eligible diseased persons had been categorized within AF category (n=168) and non-AF category (n=68). Left atrial diameter (LAD), left ventricular end-diastolic dimension (LVEDD) and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) had been measured through cardiac ultrasonography. Comparing concerning non-AF category, AF class had larger LAD and smaller LVEF (P<0.01). MMP-9 and TGF-β1 levels had been higher while TIMP-1 level remained less within AF class as compared to non-AF class (P<0.01). Age, LVEF and left atrial MMP-9/TIMP-1 remained free correlative factors of AF (P<0.01). MMP-9/TIMP-1 remained definitely correlated concerning LAD within AF class (r=0.509, P<0.01). Left atrial MMP-9/TIMP-1 remained higher within diseased persons regarding persistent AF (P<0.01). Left atrial MMP-9/TIMP-1 is correlated with AF within diseased persons having no structural heart ailment, particularly in the case of persistent AF.

ABSTRACT Hereditary Epidermolysis Bullosa is categorized by blister formation on the skin which includes Dystrophic Epidermolysis Bullosa as one of its types. It is characterized by blister formation on hands, feet, knees, and elbows. The severe condition leads to vision loss and blemishes. The objectives included the identification of COL7A1 gene mutation for DEB susceptibility through sequence analysis of hot spot regions of 73, 74 and 75 exons. The experimental design included the enrolment of DEB-affected two families. The genetic analysis techniques included inorganic DNA extraction, Polymerase Chain Reaction and Sanger sequencing method. The study inferred the identification of novel missense mutation in exon 75 of COL7A1 gene at (c. 6223 G>T) where the aspartic acid is converted into tyrosine in the heterozygous condition in affected families. The recognized novel missense mutation is silent (heterozygous) which becomes severe when homozygous. However, whole-exome sequencing strategy may identify the causative mutations.

The researcher aimed to detect mitofusin 2 (Mfn2) expression in the placental tissues of preeclampsia (PE) patients and correlations with trophoblast invasion and placental hypoxia. Mfn2 mRNA expressions in placental tissues from PE and healthy pregnant women were detected by qRT-PCR. Trophoblast cells JEG-3 were transfected with small-interfering RNA-Mfn2 (si-Mfn2). Proliferation was tested by CCK-8 and colony formation assays. Invasion and migration were determined with Transwell assay. Mfn2, HIF-1á, HPH-1 and leptin protein expressions were detected by Western blotting. Mfn2 protein had strong positive and weak negative expressions in normal and PE women, respectively. Mfn2 mRNA expression in PE women was lower than that in normal women (P<0.05). Compared with control and si- NC groups, si-Mfn2 group had lower proliferation, migration and invasion abilities, as well as HIF-1á, HPH-1 and leptin expressions (P<0.05). Mfn2 expression in the placental tissues of PE women obviously decreases, which inhibits trophoblast invasion and triggers placental hypoxia.

ABSTRACT Present work studies the expressions of MMP-9 and PCNA in osteosarcoma patients and its correlation with clinical stage. 53 specimens of osteosarcoma were surgically removed and 28 osteochondroma tissues were used for immunohistochemical staining to detect the expression of proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) as well as matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9). The expression rates of MMP-9, as well as PCNA, were 75.5 percent and 86.8 percent in osteosarcoma, while were 10.7 percent and 7.5 percent in osteochondroma, respectively, which was statistically significant (P<0.05). The expression levels of MMP-9, PCNA, and the total survival time were connected with the Enneking stage. It shows an upward trend for the expression levels of PCNA and MMP- 9 in osteosarcoma tissues. The expression levels of MMP-9 and PCNA are related to the clinical stage, metastasis, and prognosis.
