2. One year after the Zika virus outbreak in Brazil: from hypotheses to evidence
Abstract Zika virusis an arbovirus of the Flaviviridae family with two major strains, an Asian and an African strain. The main vectors involved in the transmission of Zika virus are the Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus mosquitoes. Despite its identification, discovered in 1947 in the Zika forest in Uganda, only isolated and sporadic occurrences of human in

3. Comportamento e organização social do préa Cavia intermedia, uma espécie endêmica das Ilhas Moleques do Sul, Santa Catarina / Behavior and social organization of the wild cavy Cavia intermedia, an endemic species of Moleques do Sul Island, Santa Catarina, Brazil
O preá Cavia intermedia (Rodentia: Caviidae), uma espécie recém descrita encontrada exclusivamente no Arquipélago Moleques do Sul, em Santa Catarina, está entre os mamíferos mais raros do planeta. Esta espécie se diferencia de outros preás por características genéticas e morfológicas, muitas delas decorrentes de sua adaptação ao ambiente insular

4. Subpatótipos de Escherichia coli patogênica para aves (APEC) podem estar associados às síndromes infecciosas infecciosas causadas no hospedeiro / Subpathotypes of avian pathogenic Escherichia coli (APEC) exist as definid by their syndromes of isolation and virulence traits
Avian Pathogenic Escherichia coli (APEC) cause different types of systemic extraintestinal infections in poultry, which are collectively termed colibacillosis, imposing significant economic casses for the avian industry Among these diseases are septicaemia, omphalitis, cellulites and swollen head syndrome. However, to the date, there is no description of gen

5. Mapping and regulatory mechanisms study of genes associated with caraniofacial malformations / "Estudo de mecanismos regulatórios e mapeamento de genes associados a malformações craniofaciais"
In the present study, we investigate two craniofacial mendelian disorders, resulting from abnormalities in the development of the first and second pharyngeal arches: the Treacher Collins Syndrome (TCS ) and the auriculo condylar syndrome (ACS). The identification of genes and molecular mechanisms associated to these conditions, in addition to contributing to

6. Seric antibodies anti-hemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) in healthy Brazilian adults / Anticorpos séricos anti Escherichia coli enterohemorrágica (EHEC) em adultos saudáveis da Grande São Paulo
Gastroenteritis is still an important public health problem in developing countries and Escherichia coli are frequent agents of diarrhea. Brazilian adults present antibodies reactive with the principal virulence factors of enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC), which have many genetic and antigenic similarities with enterohemorrhagic E. coli (EHEC), that may be re

7. Dinamica da dispersão de sementes e regeneração de plantas da planicie litoranea da Ilha do Mel, PR
(Seed dispersal and plant regeneration dynamics in a Sandy Coastal Plain on Ilha do Mel, southern Brazil): The island Ilha do Mel is located in the municipality of Paranaguá (25°29 /25°34 32"S e 48°17 15"/48°23 16"W) in the central coastal region of Paraná State, Brazil and comprises 2760ha. The higher areas above the Sandy Coastal Plain contains very

8. Two cases of Ellis-van Creveld syndrome in a small island population.
Two individuals showing features typical of the autosomal recessive Ellis-van Creveld syndrome have been diagnosed in a population of 1340 individuals living on a small island off the west coast of Scotland. Clinical features and family relationships of the affected individuals are described.

9. Ectodermal dysplasia with blindness in sibs on the island of Rodrigues.
A brother and sister from the island of Rodrigues had mental retardation, blindness owing to severe ocular malformations, short stature, dysmorphic facial features, hypotrichosis, and dental abnormalities. It is likely that they have a hitherto unrecognised autosomal recessive ectodermal dysplasia syndrome.

10. Linkage studies of four fibrillar collagen genes in three pedigrees with Larsen-like syndrome.
We report seven children from three families who had a set of common clinical features suggestive of Larsen-like syndrome, including unusual facies, bilateral dislocations of the knees and elbows, club foot, and short stature. All of the patients originated from the island of La Réunion in the Indian Ocean. The occurrence of several affected sibs in these f

11. Reduction in mortality from sudden infant death syndrome in New Zealand: 1986-92.
Mortality from sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS, or cot death) in New Zealand has been high by international standards (4/1000 live births). Within New Zealand the rate is higher in Maori than in non-Maori (predominantly European infants) and higher in South Island than in North Island. The National Cot Death Prevention Programme aims to reduce the prevale

12. A unique downregulation of h2-calponin gene expression in Down syndrome: a possible attenuation mechanism for fetal survival by methylation at the CpG island in the trisomic chromosome 21.
To understand the effect of trisomic chromosome 21 on the cause of Down syndrome (DS), DNA methylation in the CpG island, which regulates the expression of adjacent genes, was investigated with the DNAs of chromosome 21 isolated from DS patients and their parents. A methylation-sensitive enzyme, BssHII, was used to digest DNAs of chromosome 21, and the resul
