We utilized an informatics-based approach to develop a transcriptional signature of β-cell GA stress using existing RNA sequencing and microarray datasets generated using human islets from donors with diabetes and islets where type 1(T1D) and type 2 diabetes (T2D) had been modeled ex vivo. To narrow our results to GA-specific genes, we applied a filter set of 1,030 genes accepted as GA associated. -

Human Induced Pluripotent Stem Cell–Derived Podocytes Mature Into Vascularized Glomeruli Upon Experimental Transplantation

Glomerular development has been analyzed mainly in mice, whereas analysis of human kidney development has been minimal because of limited access to embryonic kidneys. We previously reported the induction of three-dimensional primordial glomeruli from human induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells. Here, using transcription activator–like effector nuclease-mediated homologous recombination, we generated human iPS cell lines that express green fluorescent protein (GFP) in the NPHS1 locus, which encodes nephrin, and we show that GFP expression facilitated accurate visualization of nephrin-positive podocyte formation in -

Hair - a Good Source of DNA to Solve the Crime
Arch Clin Biomed Res 2019; 3 (4): 287-295 DOI: 10.26502/acbr.50170074 Research Article Hair - A Good Source of DNA to Solve the Crime Vaishali B. Mahajan1*, Vijaya Padale2, Deepak Y. Kudekar3, Bhausaheb P. More4, Krishna V. Kulkarni5 1Regional Forensic Science Laboratory, Government of Maharashtra, Home Department, Nashik, Maharashtra, India. 2Directorate of Forensic Science Laboratories, Government of Maharashtra, Home Department, Kalina, Santacruz East, Maharashtra, India. *Corresponding Author: Vaishali B. Mahajan, Regional Forensic Science Laboratory, Government of Maharashtra, Home Department, Dindori Road, Nashik - 440002, Maharashtra, India, Mobile: +91-9881022939; Email: [email protected] Received: 18 July 2019; Accepted: 01 August 2019; Published: 05 August 2019 Abstract Most often hairs are picked up at the crime scenes and are used as contributing biological evidences in the crime cases. This can be helpful in determining the perpetrators of the crime and providing more information about what happened during the actual incidence. Hairs are commonly encountered in the forensic investigations and can be the good source of DNA. The optimal quantity of template DNA required for PCR based STR Profiling is about 1 ng and sufficient quantity may be present in the root sheath to prove the crime. In the present case, hairs were found in the fist of the deceased and they proved to be an important evidence that linked to the murderer. DNA was extracted from hair roots and profile was generated using PCR based STR Genotyping technology. The DNA profile obtained from the hair root matched with the DNA profile obtained from reference blood of the accused and proved his involvement in the crime. -
