      Santos, B. R.; Monteiro, M. G.; Thomasson, H. R. (Elsevier B.V., 1997-05-01)
      We determined the genotypes of the alcohol dehydrogenase (ALDH) and aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH2) loci of different ethnic groups living in Brazil, using saliva DNA amplified by PCR and allele-specific oligonucleotides. ...

    • Análise de polimorfismo nos genes do colágeno 1a1 e do receptor de vitamina d em mulheres em terapia substitutiva com estrogênios 

      Pereira, Elenir Monteiro de Santana [UNIFESP] (Universidade Federal de São Paulo (UNIFESP), 2014-06-25)
      Introduction: The increase of the life expectancy in the last 60 years, makes women spend one-third of their lifetime in climacteric period. The hormonal replacement in the post-menopause, seems to bring many benefits such ...

      Introduction: The pathophysiology of Gestational Diabetes Mellitus (GDM) involves the participation of many factors and mechanisms such as insulin resistance and inflammation. Vitamin D is identified as a critical element ...

    • Characterization of enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli by random amplification of polymorphic DNA 

      Pacheco, ABF; Guth, BEC; deAlmeida, D. F.; Ferreira, LCS (Elsevier B.V., 1996-03-01)
      Two enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) strains (H10407 and 4011-1) were characterized by random amplification of polymorphic DNA (RAPD) profiles using 10-mer oligonucleotides with diverse GC content, All tested primers ...

    • Diversity in Paracoccidioides brasiliensis. the PbGP43 gene as a genetic marker 

      Puccia, Rosana [UNIFESP]; McEwen, Juan G.; Cisalpino, Patricia Silva (Springer, 2008-04-01)
      Paracoccidioides brasiliensis is a temperature-dependent dimorphic fungus and the agent of paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM), which is prevalent in rural workers of Latin American countries. Until a decade ago, most of the ...
