Molecular and Clinical Investigation of Cystinuria in the Greek-Cypriot Population
(2015)Background and Aims: Cystinuria represents 3% of nephrolithiasis in humans. Two genes have been identified as the main genetic causes of cystinuria, SLC3A1 and SLC7A9, with an autosomal recessive mode of inheritance. In ...

Molecular beacon-based real-time PCR detection of primary isolates of salmonella typhimurium and salmonella enteritidis in environmental and clinical samples
(2009)Background. A fast and simple two-step multiplex real-time PCR assay has been developed to replace the traditional, laborious Salmonella serotyping procedure. Molecular beacons were incorporated into the assay as probes ...

Molecular characterization of HIV type 1 strains from newly diagnosed patients in Cyprus (2007-2009) recovers multiple clades including unique recombinant strains and lack of transmitted drug resistance
(2011)HIV-1 evolution generates substantial genetic diversity among isolates, the majority of which are represented in areas where multiple strains cocirculate. A heterogeneous genetic HIV-1 pool has been found in Cyprus, directing ...

Molecular clustering via knowledge mining from biomedical scientific corpora
(2013)In this paper, an architecture is presented that allows the extraction of argumentation clauses that might exist in publications, in order to perform molecular clustering on referenced molecules. Grammar rules are defined ...

Molecular epidemiology of hepatitis C infection in Cyprus within the general population and high-risk cohorts
(2011)Background: Initial data on the molecular epidemiology of HCV infection in Cyprus showed a highly polyphyletic infection and multiple points of introduction into the general population. The continuation and expansion of ...

Article
Molecular epidemiology of hepatitis C infection in cyprus: Evidence of polyphyletic infection
(2009)The genetic diversity of the hepatitis C virus (HCV) in Cyprus is investigated for the first time in this study. Nucleotide sequence analysis of the CORE-E1 and NS5B regions of the HCV genome was performed on blood plasma ...

Article
Molecular genetics of familial hematuric diseases
(2013)The familial hematuric diseases are a genetically heterogeneous group of monogenic conditions, caused by mutations in one of several genes. The major genes involved are the following: (i) the collagen IV genes COL4A3/A4/A5 ...

Molecular investigation and long-term clinical progress in Greek Cypriot families with recessive distal renal tubular acidosis and sensorineural deafness due to mutations in the ATP6V1B1 gene
(2006)The spectrum of distal renal tubular acidosis (dRTA) includes a genetically heterogeneous group of inherited conditions of both autosomal-dominant and recessive mode of inheritance. The basic defect islinked to the renal ...

Article
Molecular investigation of distal renal tubular acidosis in Tunisia, evidence for founder mutations
(2014)BACKGROUND: Distal renal tubular acidosis (dRTA) is a rare genetic disease caused by mutations in different genes involved in the secretion of H+ ions in the intercalated cells of the collecting duct. Both autosomal dominant ...

Article
Molecular phylogeny and phylogeography of the Greek populations of the genus orthometopon (isopoda, oniscidea) based on mitochondrial DNA sequences
(2008)We infer phylogenetic relationships among isopod species of the genus Orthometopon distributed in the Greek area, comparing partial mitochondrial DNA sequences for cytochrome oxidase I (COI). All phylogenetic analyses ...

Article
A molecular phylogeny of Porcellionidae (Isopoda, Oniscidea) reveals inconsistencies with present taxonomy
(2018)Porcellionidae is one of the richest families of Oniscidea globally distributed but we still lack a comprehensive and robust phylogeny of the taxa that are assigned to it. Employing five genetic markers (two mitochondrial ...

Article
Molecular phylogeny of the Greek populations of the genus Ligidium (Isopoda, Oniscidea) using three mtDNA gene segments
(2006)The phylogeny of Greek populations of the terrestrial isopod genus Ligidium is reconstructed based on three mtDNA gene segments: 12S rRNA, 16S rRNA and COI. Two widely distributed European species, as well as three outgroups ...

Monoclonal antibodies to bull sperm surface antigens
(1985)Four monoclonal antibodies were generated during the present investigation. Mice were immunized with washed ejaculated bull spermatozoa. Spleen cells from the immunized mice were fused with myeloma cells (SP2/0) and four ...

A morphometric approach to the geographic variation of the terrestrial isopod species armadillo tuberculatus (Isopoda: Oniscidea)
(2009)The terrestrial isopod species Armadillo tuberculatus Vogl, 1876 (Crustacea, Isopoda, Oniscidea) is a widely polymorphic species distributed in the south-central Aegean region (Greece) with a different morph on each island. ...

The mouse Foxi3 transcription factor is necessary for the development of posterior placodes
(2016)The inner ear develops from the otic placode, one of the cranial placodes that arise from a region of ectoderm adjacent to the anterior neural plate called the pre-placodal domain. We have identified a Forkhead family ...

The MTHFR 677TT and 677CT/1298AC genotypes in Cypriot patients may be predisposing to hypertensive nephrosclerosis and chronic renal failure
(2005)Aim. The homozygous 677TT mutation of the MTHFR gene has been linked to deep vein thrombosis and to arterial atherosclerotic events of the coronary, carotid and peripheral arteries. Its putative association with renal ...
