Glossary Term
The ratio (for a given time period) of the number of occurrences of a disease or event to the number of units at risk in the population.
Indicadores
This gene plays a role in the regulation of protein kinase A.
Glossary Term
General term for a piece of DNA or RNA corresponding to a gene or sequence of interest, that has been labelled either radioactively or with some other detectable molecule, such as biotin, digoxygenin or fluorescein. As stretches of DNA or RNA with complementary sequences will hybridize, a probe will label viral plaques, bacterial colonies or bands on a gel that contain the gene of interest.
Glossary Term
A program for the determination of laboratory performance where individual labs perform the same test on the same or similar items or materials, with the results from each lab compared and evaluated.
Indicadores
Produced in the corpus luteum and by the placenta, as an antagonist of estrogens. Promotes proliferation of uterine mucosa and the implantation of the blastocyst, prevents further follicular development.
Glossary Term
A DNA sequence at which RNA polymerase binds and initiates transcription.
Glossary Term
A type of study in which participants are enrolled into the study before they develop the disease or outcome in question.
Pruebas
The determination of the amount of the prostanozol in a sample.
Glossary Term
Refers to the total protein-encoding capability of an organism's genome. It is also used to refer to the actual total expressed protein complement of an organism or to the identifiable proteins of a single tissue or cell type or subcellular compartment.
Glossary Term
The global analysis of cellular proteins. Proteomics uses a combination of sophisticated techniques including two-dimensional (2D) gel electrophoresis, image analysis, mass spectrometry, amino acid sequencing, and bio-informatics to resolve comprehensively, to quantify, and to characterize proteins. The application of proteomics provides major opportunities to elucidate disease mechanisms and to identify new diagnostic markers and therapeutic targets.
Pruebas
The determination of the neutrophils with a Pelger-Huet-like nucleus (hyposegmented) in a sample.
Glossary Term
Nonfunctional DNA sequences that are very similar to the sequences of known genes. Many seem to have arisen as functional gene duplications that subsequently underwent mutation and loss of function. Others are structurally similar to mRNA and seem to have arisen by a reverse transcription event followed by integration into the genome. Some pseudogenes are transcribed and may play a role in regulation of its homologous gene.
