Because reduced DNA repair capacity (phenotype) has been suggested as a risk factor for
squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (SCCHN), newly-identified DNA repair gene …

DNA repair capacity is central in maintaining normal cellular functions. Variants of several
DNA repair genes,including the nucleotide excision repair gene XPD, have been described …

Time spent lying by lactating Holstein-Friesian cows of varying body condition scores (BCS)
and milk yield was measured using an animal activity monitor. A 3-week average BCS was …

Head and neck cancers (HNCs) are malignancies that can be induced by tobacco use,
although host-specific factors such as the DNA repair capacity (DRC) may modulate individual …

The present study investigated the effects of dietary arginine (Arg) supplementation on
intestinal structure and functionality in broiler chickens subjected to coccidial challenge. The …

Background Elderly patients over 80 years of age represent a growing population, some of
whom have complex medical problems that are compounded by the presence of upper …

BACKGROUND Phenotypic differences in the ability to repair genetic damage induced by
tobacco carcinogens may reflect genetic differences in susceptibility to squamous cell …

In the present study, two experiments were conducted to investigate the effect of dietary l-arginine
(Arg) supplementation on the inflammatory response and innate immunity of broiler …

Squamous cell carcinoma of the lower gingiva is a rare lesion that frequently invades the
mandible. To determine the factors that affect local disease control and overall survival, a …

AG→A polymorphism (G870A) in exon 4 of the cyclin D1 ( CCND1 ) gene creates an
alternative splice site in its mRNA, encoding a protein with an altered C-terminal domain. It has …
