Advances in Genetics Research

"Advances in Genetics Research" presents original research results on the leading edge of genetics discovery. Each article has been carefully selected in an attempt to present substantial research results across a broad spectrum. In this continuing series compilation, the authors present and discuss varied topical data such as the role of IL-1 in the cytokine network of the body; genetic manipulation of leishmania parasites facilitating the exploration of polyamine biosynthetic pathways as potential therapeutic targets; RNA interference-mediated cell camouflage; identification of RNA in analysis of body fluids stains for forensic purposes; cationic lipid-based nanoparticles for siRNA delivery; Interleukin-1 in osteoarthritis; fungal genetic manipulation using RNA silencing; microglial cathespin B-dependent IL-1B production; role of miRNAs in early embryonic development of drosophila melanogaster; and pHg/pSILBAy vector system for RNA silencing in mycorrhiza via agrobacterium-mediated transformation.
