This study aimed to determine the expression of microRNA molecules as early prognosis biomarkers for the detection of breast cancer. To achieve this project, a total of fifteen serum samples were collected from Iraqi women with breast cancer and from six serum samples were collected from healthy women volunteers as a control group.
Ficus religiosa plant is an important medical plant and traditionally used to treat various diseases including mastitis, otitis media, pharyngolaryngitis, urethritis, dysmenorrhea and diabetis.
Plant viral vectors are valuable tools for host gene analysis, thus possessing important applications as reverse genetics tools for gene function studies. Bean pod mottle virus (BPMV) is a bipartite, positive-sense (+) RNA virus of Secoviridae. Insertion of relatively short cDNA fragments (96nts) corresponding to different regions of soybean (Glycine max) phytoene desaturase1 (GmPDS1) into the 3' UTR of BPMV RNA2 initiated weak photobleaching manifested by white spots along the veins of soybean leaves.
