Selective Aptamer‐Based Control of Intraneuronal Signaling†
Cellular behavior is orchestrated by the complex interactions of a myriad of intracellular signal transduction pathways. To understand and investigate the role of individual components in such signaling networks, the availability of specific inhibitors is of paramount importance. We report the generation and validation of a novel variant of an RNA aptamer that selectively inhibits the mitogen-a...
متن کاملmiRNAs: effectors of environmental influences on gene expression and disease.
Discovered less than a decade ago, micro-RNAs (miRNAs) have emerged as important regulators of gene expression in mammals. They consist of short nucleic acids, on average approximately 22 nucleotides in length. The miRNAs exert their effect by binding directly to target messenger RNAs (mRNAs) and inhibiting mRNA stability and translation. Each miRNA can bind to multiple targets and many miRNAs ...
متن کاملcomparison of snrna-u6 and microrna-16 for identification of suitable endogenous control gene for microrna gene expression analysis under dendrosomal curcumin treatment in hepatocellular carcinoma cell lines
objective: micrornas (mirnas) are single-stranded small rnas 18-25 nucleotides in length that regulate gene expression through translational inhibition and mrna cleavage. aberrant expression of mirnas contribute to several diseases. this has increased interest in profiling the expressions of these molecules. real-time quantitative pcr (rq-pcr) is a sensitive, quantitative technique for gene exp...
متن کاملBisphosphonate Prodrugs Utilizing Endogenous Carriers
Targeting of therapeutic agents to a specific site, as well as controlling the rate and time of release, has been intensively investigated and established over the last decades. These studies concerning drug delivery systems led to the formulation of several products that can improve the diffusion across the barriers after drug administration. For this purpose, the development of strategies of ...
متن کاملDirectly utilizing an endogenous gene to dissect regulatory elements in the biosynthetic gene cluster of nosiheptide.
The regulatory elements for nosiheptide biosynthesis were identified by a novel host-vector system with an endogenous gene within the biosynthetic gene cluster as a reporter gene. The present study offers a rapid and reliable method for the identification of regulatory elements in the biosynthesis of various bioactive natural products.
