Alcohol dependence is a heterogeneous psychiatric disorder characterized by high genetic
heritability and neuroadaptations occurring from repeated drug exposure. Through an …

Suicidal behaviors are strongly linked with mood disorders, but the specific neurobiological
and functional gene-expression correlates for this linkage remain elusive. We performed …

Barley is characterized by a rich genetic diversity, making it an important model for studies
of salinity response with great potential for crop improvement. Moreover, salt stress severely …

Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) is a human tumor virus that encodes 12
precursor microRNAs (pre-miRNAs) that give rise to 17 different known ∼22-nucleotide (nt) …

Date palm is a very important crop in western Asia and northern Africa, and it is the oldest
domesticated fruit tree with archaeological records dating back 5000 years. The huge …

Therapeutic delivery of drug and gene delivery systems have to traverse multiple biological
barriers to achieve efficacy. Mucosal administration, such as pulmonary delivery in cystic …

Background A number of publications have reported the use of microarray technology to
identify gene expression signatures to infer mechanisms and pathways associated with …

Salt stress negatively impacts crop production worldwide. Genetic diversity among barley (Hordeum
