Tuberization in potato is a complex developmental process resulting in the differentiation of stolon into the storage organ, tuber. During tuberization, change in gene expression has been known to occur. To study gene expression during tuberization over the time, in vitro tuberization system provides a suitable tool, due to its synchronous in tuber formation. An early six days axillary bud growing on tuber induction medium is a crucial development since a large number of genes change in their expression patterns during this period. In order to identify, isolate and sequencing the genes which displaying differential pattern between tuberizing and non-tuberizing potato explants during six days in vitro tuberization, cDNA-AFLP fingerprint, method for the visualization of gene expression using cDNA as template which is amplified to generate an RNA-fingerprinting, was used in this experiment. Seventeen primer combinations were chosen based on their expression profile from cDNA-AFLP fingerprint. Forty five TDFs (transcript derived fragment), which displayed differential expressions, were obtained. Tuberizing explants had much more TDFs, which developmentally regulated, than those from non tuberizing explants. Seven TDFs were isolated, cloned and then sequenced. One TDF did not find similarity in the current databases. The nucleotide sequence of TDF F showed best similarity to invertase ezymes from the databases. The homology of six TDFs with known sequences is discussed in this paper.

AbstractObjectivesThe recurrence of rectal cancer or its resistance to neoadjuvant treatment develops due to the adaptation to hypoxia, apoptosis or autophagy. Survivin, one of the inhibitors of apoptosis; Beclin 1, which is a positive regulator in the autophagy pathway; and hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) and carbonic anhydrase-9 (CA9), which are associated with tumor tissue hypoxia, may be related to resistance to treatment. Our aim was to evaluate the potential tumor markers that may help to monitor the response to neoadjuvant treatment in locally advanced rectal cancer (RC).MethodsTwenty-five patients with locally advanced RC were included in the study. Gene expression and protein levels of Beclin 1, Survivin, HIF-1α, and CA9 were analyzed in fresh tissue specimens and blood samples. The relationships of these markers to tumor staging and regression grade were evaluated.ResultsHigher blood CA9 gene expression levels and lower blood HIF-1α protein levels were found in the response group according to tumor regression grade. After neoadjuvant treatment, tissue Beclin 1 and blood Survivin gene expressions and tissue CA9, blood Beclin 1 and blood HIF-1α protein levels decreased significantly.ConclusionBeclin 1, Survivin, HIF-1α ve CA9 may help to predict the effects of the applied treatment approach.

Numerous studies have detailed the extensive conservation of developmental signaling pathways between the model system, Drosophila melanogaster, and mammalian models, but researchers have also profited from the unique and highly tractable genetic tools available in this system to address critical questions in physiology. In this review, we have described contributions that Drosophila researchers have made to mathematical dynamics of pattern formation, cardiac pathologies, the way in which pain circuits are integrated to elicit responses from sensation, as well as the ways in which gene expression can modulate diverse behaviors and shed light on human cognitive disorders. The broad and diverse array of contributions from Drosophila underscore its translational relevance to modeling human disease.
