Drug resistance genes refer to specific genetic variations that allow certain microorganisms, such as bacteria or viruses, to survive and thrive in the presence of drugs designed to kill them.
Full definition
The expression of the tumoral multidrug resistance gene (MDR1), which encodes P - glycoprotein, and NANOG, a stem - cell marker and a regulator of the expression
of drug resistance genes, was determined using qRT - PCR.
Simply put, MDR1 is a «
multi drug resistance gene» which certain breeds (including those of mixed breed heritage) carry that causes sensitivity to certain drugs.
At a talk about MRSA, she learned that the
critical drug resistance gene is carried on a mobile element, and that the DNA recombinase that moves the element around was a familiar one.
: This study evaluated the effects of an antagonistic analog of growth hormone - releasing hormone, MIA - 602, on tumor growth, response to doxorubicin, expression
of drug resistance genes, and efflux pump function in human triple negative breast cancers.
Breeders have a number DNA tests at their disposal to check for the
Multi Drug Resistance Gene, hereditary cataracts, Pelger Huet Anomaly, Collie Eye Anomaly and Progressive Rod Cone Degeneration (another eye disease), so check which testing your breeder uses.
The widespread use of antibiotics puts selective pressure on only the hardiest bacteria to survive — which often carry virulence or
drug resistance genes.
Tumors were evaluated for changes in volume and the expression of
the drug resistance genes MDR1 and NANOG.
Introduction: This study evaluated the effects of an antagonistic analog of growth hormone - releasing hormone, MIA - 602, on tumor growth, response to doxorubicin, expression of
drug resistance genes, and efflux pump function in human triple negative breast cancers.
