Cervical penetration rates and efficiency of non-surgical embryo recovery in es...
Fonseca, J.F.; Zambrini, F.N.; Guimarães, J.D.; Silva, M.R.; Oliveira, M.E.F.; Bartlewski, P.M.; Souza-Fabjan, J.M.G.The effects of estradiol esters, D -cloprostenol and oxytocin on induction of cervical dilation prior to non-surgical embryo recovery in Santa Inês ewes (Days 6–7 estrous cycle) were assessed in this study. In Trial 1, transcervical embryo flushing was performed in estrous-induced ewes ad- ministered 37.5 μg of D -cloprostenol i.m. 10 h before and 50 IU of oxytocin i.v. 20 min before uterine flushing with (EB-P...
TTC7B emerges as a novel risk factor for ischemic stroke through the convergenc...
Krug, T.; Gabriel, J.P.; Taipa, R.; Fonseca, B.V.; Domingues-Montanari, S.; Fernandez-Cadenas, I.; Manso, H.; Gouveia, L.O.; Sobral, J.; Albergaria, I.We hereby propose a novel approach to the identification of ischemic stroke (IS) susceptibility genes that involves converging data from several unbiased genetic and genomic tools. We tested the association between IS and genes differentially expressed between cases and controls, then determined which data mapped to previously reported linkage peaks and were nominally associated with stroke in published genome-...
Kalirin: a novel genetic risk factor for ischemic stroke
Krug, T.; Manso, H.; Gouveia, L.; Sobral, J.; Xavier, J.M.; Albergaria, I.; Gaspar, G.; Correia, M.; Viana-Baptista, M.; Simões, R.M.; Pinto, A.N.Cerebrovascular and cardiovascular diseases are the leading causes of death and disability worldwide. They are complex disorders resulting from the interplay of genetic and environmental factors, and may share several susceptibility genes. Several recent studies have implicated variants of the Kalirin (KALRN) gene with susceptibility to cardiovascular and metabolic phenotypes, but no studies have yet been perfo...
Mitochondrial haplogroup H1 is protective for ischemic stroke in Portuguese pat...
Rosa, A.; Fonseca, B.V.; Krug, T.; Manso, H.; Gouveia, L.; Albergaria, I.; Gaspar, G.; Correia, M.; Viana-Baptista, M.; Simões, R.M.; Pinto, A.N.The genetic contribution to stroke is well established but it has proven difficult to identify the genes and the disease-associated alleles mediating this effect, possibly because only nuclear genes have been intensely investigated so far. Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) has been implicated in several disorders having stroke as one of its clinical manifestations. The aim of this case-control study was to assess the c...
