NOE DIAZ VILORIA RICARDO PEREZ ENRIQUEZ DANIEL AGUILAR OSUNA Pedro Cruz Hernández (2013, [Artículo])

"En México la pesquería de abulón amarillo (Haliotis corrugata) se ha visto fuertemente afectada por la sobrepesca y factores ambientales. En este contexto, la repoblación de los bancos silvestres mediante liberación de larvas o juveniles producidos en laboratorio se ha vislumbrado como una alternativa para incrementar la producción. Cualquier programa de repoblamiento debe considerar una estrategia de manejo genético que evite la pérdida de diversidad genética y que permita dar seguimiento del pedigrí de los individuos producidos en laboratorio y liberados posteriormente en los bancos naturales. Uno de los requisitos de los marcadores moleculares tipo microsatélites empleados para la asignación de parentesco en análisis de pedigrí es su conformación al modelo de herencia mendeliana. En el presente estudio se analizaron larvas veliger de H. corrugata de tres familias no emparentadas (cada una de hermanos completos) con 11 loci microsatélites para evaluar si sus clases genotípicas se ajustaban a las proporciones esperadas bajo herencia mendeliana. Las proporciones genotípicas de ocho loci (Hco15, Hco19, Hco22, Hco47-2, Hco47-3, Hco194, Hka3 y Hka56) se ajustaron a las proporciones mendelianas esperadas, dos loci (Hco47-1 y Hco97) mostraron desviaciones significativas (P<0,05) y en un locus (Hco16) no se pudo comprobar segregación mendeliana. Para análisis de parentesco futuros en esta especie se recomienda el uso de un grupo de al menos seis loci en el cual deben incluirse Hco19, Hco22, Hco47-2 y Hka3 debido a sus moderados a altos polimorfismos."

"In Mexico, the pink abalone (Haliotis corrugata) fishery has been strongly affected by overfishing and environmental factors. In this context, reseeding of natural beds through the release of hatchery produced larvae or juveniles, has been envisioned as an alternative to increase production. Any reseeding program should take in account a genetic management strategy, which avoids the loss of genetic diversity and enables to follow the pedigree of hatchery produced individuals being released in the natural beds. One of the requisites of microsatellites as molecular markers for parentage assignment is their agreement to Mendelian inheritance model. In the present study, Haliotis corrugata veliger larvae from three unrelated families (of fullsibs each), were analyzed with 11 microsatellite loci, to assess if their genotypic classes were in agreement to expected ratios under Mendelian inheritance. The genotypic ratios of eight loci (Hco15, Hco19, Hco22, Hco47-2, Hco47-3, Hco194, Hka3, and Hka56) were in agreement with Mendelian expected ratios, two loci (Hco47-1 and Hco97) showed significant deviations (P<0.05), and in one locus (Hco16) Mendelian segregation could not be demonstrated. From the results we suggest the use a group of at least 6 loci in subsequent parentage analyses in which loci Hco19, Hco22, Hco47-2 and Hka3 should be included because their moderate to high polymorphisms."

Whole-genome comparison between reference sequences and oyster Vibrio vulnificus C-genotype strains

CARLOS ABRAHAM GUERRERO RUIZ (2019, [Artículo])

Whole-genome sequences of Vibrio vulnificus clinical genotype (C-genotype) from the CICESE Culture Collection, isolated from oysters, were compared with reference sequences of CMCP6 and YJ016 V. vulnificus C-genotype strains of clinical origin. The RAST web server estimated the whole genome to be ~4.8 Mb in CICESE strain 316 and ~4.7 Mb in CICESE strain 325. No plasmids were detected in the CICESE strains. Based on a phylogenetic tree that was constructed with the whole-genome results, we observed high similarity between the reference sequences and oyster C-genotype isolates and a sharp contrast with environmental genotype (E-genotype) reference sequences, indicating that the differences between the C- and E-genotypes do not necessarily correspond to their isolation origin. The CICESE strains share 3488 genes (63.2%) with the YJ016 strain and 3500 genes (63.9%) with the CMCP6 strain. A total of 237 pathogenicity associated genes were selected from reference clinical strains, where—92 genes were from CMCP6, 126 genes from YJ016, and 19 from MO6-24/ O; the presence or absence of these genes was recorded for the CICESE strains. Of the 92 genes that were selected for CMCP6, 67 were present in both CICESE strains, as were as 86 of the 126 YJ016 genes and 13 of the 19 MO6-24/O genes. The detection of elements that are related to virulence in CICESE strains—such as the RTX gene cluster, vvhA and vvpE, the type IV pili cluster, the XII genomic island, and the viuB genes, suggests that environmental isolates with the C-genotype, have significant potential for infection. © 2019 Guerrero et al.

Genetic analysis of Vibrio parahaemolyticus O3:K6 strains that have been isolated in Mexico since 1998

CARLOS ABRAHAM GUERRERO RUIZ (2017, [Artículo])

Vibrio parahaemolyticus is an important human pathogen that has been isolated worldwide from clinical cases, most of which have been associated with seafood consumption. Environmental and clinical toxigenic strains of V. parahaemolyticus that were isolated in Mexico from 1998 to 2012, including those from the only outbreak that has been reported in this country, were characterized genetically to assess the presence of the O3:K6 pandemic clone, and their genetic relationship to strains that are related to the pandemic clonal complex (CC3). Pathogenic tdh+ and tdh+/trh+ strains were analyzed by pulsed-field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) and multilocus sequence typing (MLST). Also, the entire genome of a Mexican O3:K6 strain was sequenced. Most of the strains were tdh/ORF8-positive and corresponded to the O3:K6 serotype. By PFGE and MLST, there was very close genetic relationship between ORF8/O3:K6 strains, and very high genetic diversities from non-pandemic strains. The genetic relationship is very close among O3:K6 strains that were isolated in Mexico and sequences that were available for strains in the CC3, based on the PubMLST database. The whole-genome sequence of CICESE-170 strain had high similarity with that of the reference RIMD 2210633 strain, and harbored 7 pathogenicity islands, including the 4 that denote O3:K6 pandemic strains. These results indicate that pandemic strains that have been isolated in Mexico show very close genetic relationship among them and with those isolated worldwide. © 2017 Guerrero et al.

"WRKY transcription factors (TFs) play key roles in plant defense responses through phytohormone signaling pathways. However, their functions in tropical fruit crops, especially in banana, remain largely unknown. Several WRKY genes from the model plants rice (OsWRKY45) and Arabidopsis (AtWRKY18, AtWRKY60, AtWRKY70) have shown to be attractive TFs for engineering disease resistance. In this study, we isolated four banana cDNAs (MaWRKY18, MaWRKY45, MaWRKY60, and MaWRKY70) with homology to these rice and Arabidopsis WRKY genes. The MaWRKY cDNAs were isolated from the wild banana Musa acuminata ssp. malaccensis, which is resistant to several diseases of this crop and is a progenitor of most banana cultivars. The deduced amino acid sequences of the four MaWRKY cDNAs revealed the presence of the conserved WRKY domain of ~60 amino acids and a zinc-finger motif at the N-terminus. Based on the number of WRKY repeats and the structure of the zinc-finger motif, MaWRKY18 and MaWRKY60 belong to group II of WRKY TFs, while MaWRKY45 and MaWRKY70 are members of group III. Their corresponding proteins were located in the nuclei of onion epidermal cells and were shown to be functional TFs in yeast cells. Moreover, expression analyses revealed that the majority of these MaWRKY genes were upregulated by salicylic acid (SA) or methyl jasmonate (MeJA) phytohormones, although the expression levels were relatively higher with MeJA treatment. The fact that most of these banana WRKY genes were upregulated by SA or MeJA, which are involved in systemic acquired resistance (SAR) or induced systemic resistance (ISR), respectively, make them interesting candidates for bioengineering broad-spectrum resistance in this crop."

Regional analysis of the wage discrimination in the indigenous workers in Mexico

Christian De la Luz-Tovar SIBYL ITALIA PINEDA SALAZAR (2023, [Artículo, Artículo])

The objective of this research is to estimate and decompose the wage gap between indigenous and non-indigenous workers by region in Mexico, to examine whether there are regional differences in the existing wage inequality that a priori affects the indigenous population and whether these differences can be attributed to the job profile of this group or by systematic labor discrimination against them. Using the data from the 2018 National Household Expenditure Revenue Survey (ENIGH-N) and the Oaxaca-Blinder decomposition, it was found that indigenous workers face a wage gap in all regions of the county. But, this gap is more pronounced in the center and south regions, where, on average, the associated component with labor discrimination has a percentage greater than 56. In contrast, in the north-central and northern regions of Mexico, the residual component is on average less than 33%, which suggests that the wage gap is explained by differences in productivity between groups.

Relación de adenovirus 36 con la obesidad, expresión de genes (c/ebpB y hif-1A) y la morfologia del tejido adiposo.

JORGE BARRERA ALCOCER (2021, [Tesis de doctorado])

Introducción: Al origen infeccioso de la obesidad se le conoce como ¿infectobesidad¿. Los primeros estudios realizados en modelos animales, como pollos, ratones y primates no humanos, asociaron la presencia de anticuerpos contra HAd36 con el desarrollo de la obesidad y la ganancia de peso, de igual manera los ensayos realizados en preadipocitos (3T3-L1) y células madre adiposas humanas (hASCc) han demostrado que HAd36 se asocia con la expresión de genes implicados en la diferenciación celular y el metabolismo de lípidos. Los estudios realizados para identificar el DNA viral en tejido adiposo son pocos y los resultados inconsistentes. Objetivo: Analizar la presencia del DNA de HAd36 en biopsias de tejido adiposo subcutáneo y su relación con la obesidad, cambios morfológicos de los adipocitos y la expresión de genes adipogénicos y de metabolismo celular. Materiales y Métodos: Se recolectaron un total de 52 biopsias de tejido adiposo subcutáneo de mujeres sometidas a liposucción y/o lipectomia. Se realizó una evaluación antropométrica y clínico-bioquímica. La identificación del DNA de HAd36 se realizó por PCR convencional, la expresión de los genes C/EBPB, HIF-1A y ¿-actina se determinó utilizando sondas TaqMan. La morfología celular se analizó en secciones de tejido adiposo teñidas con H&E, la estimación del número y tamaño de las células se realizó con el software Image J Fiji. Resultados: Se identificó el DNA de HAd36 en 16 muestras de tejido adiposo subcutáneo (31%). La presencia del DNA viral no se asoció con los parámetros antropométricos o metabólicos, tampoco con cambios en la morfología del tejido adiposo. Los niveles de expresión de mRNA para C/EBPB y HIF-1A no mostraron diferencias significativas entre las muestras positivas y negativas al DNA viral (p>0.05). Conclusión: El DNA de HAd36 puede estar presente en el tejido adiposo subcutáneo, pero la presencia del DNA viral no se encontró relacionado con los cambios morfológicos en este tejido, ni con la expresión de genes como C/EBPB y HIF-1A.

La importancia de la composición del cemento portland en la mitigación del biodeterioro en la infraestructura hidráulica de concreto

XIANGYUE LI LIU LUIS EMILIO RENDON DIAZ MIRON (2009, [Artículo])

El biodeterioro que se presenta en los sistemas de drenaje de concreto se define como el estropicio causado a la infraestructura de ese material por la actividad microbiana y los productos del metabolismo microbiológicos, principalmente ácido sulfúrico, por lo que también es conocida como corrosión ácida. En Canadá y la parte norte de Estados Unidos, este tipo de fallas en los sistemas de drenaje por corrosión-ácida no son tan frecuentes. Ciudades como Boston, Edmonton, Montreal y Nueva York han reportado (al menos en los diarios o en la literatura comercial) varios casos de corrosión en concreto. Sin embargo, en la parte sur de los Estados Unidos, el rápido deterioro de la infraestructura para el manejo de agua residual está causando problemas serios y caros de resolver. En la frontera México-americana, con una población combinada de más de 15 millones de habitantes, la problemática es particularmente alarmante. En este trabajo se expone el diagnóstico de este tipo de biodeterioro del concreto en la ciudad de Reynosa, Tamaulipas, México, y se dan algunas recomendaciones para mitigarlo, siendo la más importante la de revisar la norma mexicana de cemento tipo portland (ONNCCE, 2004), que no toma en consideración la variable “biodeterioro del concreto” ni su mecanismo.
