Assessment of the Typology and the Trophic Status of Two Mediterranean Lake Ecosystems in Northwestern Greece
(2014)The objective of this study is the assessment of the typology and the trophic relevant water quality parameters in two Mediterranean lakes (Lake Ziros and Lake Kastoria) under the view of the WFD. Lake types were identified ... -
Association Between the Interleukin-1 beta Gene (IL1B) C-511T Polymorphism and the Risk of Diabetic Nephropathy in Type 2 Diabetes: A Candidate-Gene Association Study
(2014)Variants of the interleukin-1 beta gene (IL1B) are implicated in the development of diabetic nephropathy (DN). The present candidate-gene association study was conducted to investigate the association between the IL1B ... -
Characteristics of non-cerebral coenurosis in tropical goats
(2015)The epidemiological, clinical, and biochemical profile of non-cerebral coenurosis in goats and the morphological characteristics of the responsible metacestodes (cysts) were examined in a cross-sectional survey of slaughtered ... -
Characterization of 23 small supernumerary marker chromosomes detected at pre-natal diagnosis: The value of fluorescence in situ hybridization
(2010)Small supernumerary marker chromosomes (sSMCs) cannot be identified or characterized unambiguously by conventional cytogenetic banding techniques. Until recently, the large variety of marker chromosomes, as well as the ... -
Characterization of the interaction between peptides derived from the gp 120/V3 domain of HIV-1 and the amino terminal of the chemokine receptor CCR5 by NMR spectroscopy and light scattering
(2006)We applied static and dynamic light scattering (DLS) to probe the structural and physicochemical determinants of the interaction between the gp120 V3 domain of the human immunodeficiency virus HIV-1 and the amino terminal ... -
The critical period for weed competition in parsley (Petroselinum crispum (Mill.) Nyman ex AW Hill) in Mediterranean areas
(2012)Weeds are one of the major limiting factors for economically viable parsley production. Field experiments were carried out in central Greece, in 2010 and 2011 to determine the effect of competition from a natural weed flora ... -
Deep sequencing of GDF5 reveals the absence of rare variants at this important osteoarthritis susceptibility locus
(2011)Objective: The common single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs143383 in the 5' untranslated region (5'UTR) of growth and differentiation factor 5 (GDF5) is strongly associated with osteoarthritis (OA) and influences GDF5 ... -
Deforestation processes in Greece: A spatial analysis by using an ordinal regression model
(2010)Forest land use changes in Greece have been the outcome of combining forces with mostly economic and institutional origin. Interactions between the major land uses have diachronically resulted in spatial patterns of great ... -
Epidemiological survey of cestode-larva disease in Greek sheep flocks
(2008)The epidemiological status of hydatidosis, cysticercosis, and gid in sheep and the production practices of sheep farmers that increase the risk of exposure of sheep to infecting agents of these diseases were investigated ... -
Genetic structure of Greek brown hare (Lepus europaeus) populations as revealed by mtDBNA RFLP-PCR analysis: implications for conserving genetic diversity
(2001)The genetic differentiation and the phylogenetic status of brown hare (Lepus europaeus) populations from central Greece as well as the impact of the releases of reared individuals on the native populations genetic structure ... -
The Hellenic type of nondeletional hereditary persistence of fetal hemoglobin results from a novel mutation (g.-109G > T) in the HBG2 gene promoter
(2009)Nondeletional hereditary persistence of fetal hemoglobin (nd-HPFH), a rare hereditary condition resulting in elevated levels of fetal hemoglobin (Hb F) in adults, is associated with promoter mutations in the human fetal ... -
Helminth burden in stray cats from Thessaloniki, Greece
(2014)To get an overview on the prevalence of intestinal helminths, between 2010 and 2012, fecal samples from 215 stray cats from area of Thessaloniki, Greece, were tested by coprological methods. From the total number of fecal ... -
A heterogeneity-based genome search meta-analysis for autism-spectrum disorders
(2006)Autism and autism-spectrum disorders exhibit high heritability, although specific susceptibility genes still remain largely elusive. We performed a heterogeneity-based genome search meta-analysis (HEGESMA) of nine genome ... -
Hydrological response to meteorological drought using the Palmer drought indices in Thessaly, Greece
(2009)This Study evaluates the efficacy of Palmer drought indices to monitor hydrological droughts ill river discharges and soil moisture in selected watersheds with varying geomorphologic characteristics in region of Thessaly, ... -
Interleukin-1B and interleukin-1 receptor antagonist gene polymorphisms in Greek multiple sclerosis (MS) patients with bout-onset MS
(2010)We investigated the association of specific polymorphisms of the interleukin IL-1b (AvaI -511 and TaqI +3,953) and IL-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1RN) (a variable number of tandem repeats; VNTR) genes with both the susceptibility ... -
Internal translation initiation stimulates expression of the ARF/core+1 open reading frame of HCV genotype 1b
(2011)The hepatitis C virus possesses an alternative open reading frame overlapping the Core gene, whose products are referred to as Core+1 or alternative reading frame (ARF) or F protein(s). Extensive studies on genotype HCV-1 ... -
Large-scale meta-analysis of genome-wide association data identifies six new risk loci for Parkinson's disease
(2014)We conducted a meta-analysis of Parkinson's disease genome-wide association studies using a common set of 7,893,274 variants across 13,708 cases and 95,282 controls. Twenty-six loci were identified as having genome-wide ... -
