Individual Differences In The Forced Swimming Test And The Effect Of Environmental Enrichment: Searching For An Interaction
(Neuroscience 265(1):95-107, 2014-02-05)
Animals with low and high immobility in the forced
swimming test (FST) differ in a number of neurobehavioral
factors. A growing body of evidence suggests that the exposure
to enriched environments mediates a number ...
Association of interleukin-1B and interleukin-1RN polymorphisms with gastric cancer in a high-risk population of Costa Rica
(Clinical and Experimental Medicine 5 p.169-176, 2005-09-13)
Several risk factors have been associated with gastric cancer, among them Helicobacter pylori infection. This bacterium yields inflammation, the degree of which depends on the bacterial strain and the severity of the host ...

El sitio frágil en (X) (q27.3) es un marcador cromosómico pare un nuevo tipo de mutación genética. Se estima que el síndrome del cromosoma X frágil es la principal causa de deficiencia mental hereditaria y es casi tan ...
Asociación del polimorfismo del codon 72 del gen P53 con el riesgo de cáncer gástrico en una población de alto riesgo de Costa Rica
Association of the p53 codon 72 polymorphism to gastric cancer risk in a hight risk population of Costa Rica
(Revista de Biología Tropical 53 (3-4): 317-324, 2005, 2005-10-03)
El cáncer gástrico es la segunda causa de muerte por cáncer en el mundo. Varios factores han sido asociados con el riesgo de llegar a desarrollarlo, entre ellos la predisposición genética. El gen p53 presenta un polimorfismo ...
