The Proto-Oncogene TWIST1 Is Regulated by MicroRNAs
Upregulation of the proto-oncogene Twist1 is highly correlated with acquired drug resistance and poor prognosis in human cancers. Altered expression of this multifunctional transcription factor is also associated with inherited skeletal malformations. The mammalian Twist1 3'UTRs are highly conserved and contain a number of potential regulatory elements including miRNA target sites. We analyzed ...
متن کاملVascular Endothelial Growth Factor Production is Regulated by Gene Polymorphisms
Background: Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) has a key role in angiogene-sis and in transplantation. The level of VEGF is related to the differences in the DNA sequence of its promoter region. Objectives: In this study, the association between the combination of VEGF –1154 G and –2578 C alleles and VEGF production by LPS-stimulated PBMCs was investigated. In addition; the relationship ...
متن کاملLEO1 is regulated by PRL-3 and mediates its oncogenic properties in acute myelogenous leukemia.
PRL-3, an oncogenic dual-specificity phosphatase, is overexpressed in 50% of acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) and associated with poor survival. We found that stable expression of PRL-3 confers cytokine independence and growth advantage of AML cells. However, how PRL-3 mediates these functions in AML is not known. To comprehensively screen for PRL3-regulated proteins in AML, we performed SILAC-...
متن کاملComplement component C3 mediates inflammatory injury following focal cerebral ischemia.
The complement cascade has been implicated in ischemia/reperfusion injury, and recent studies have shown that complement inhibition is a promising treatment option for acute stroke. The development of clinically useful therapies has been hindered, however, by insufficient understanding of which complement subcomponents contribute to post-ischemic injury. To address this issue, we subjected mice...
متن کاملComplement component C5a mediates hemorrhage-induced intestinal damage.
BACKGROUND Complement has been implicated in the pathogenesis of intestinal damage and inflammation in multiple animal models. Although the exact mechanism is unknown, inhibition of complement prevents hemodynamic alterations in hemorrhage. MATERIALS AND METHODS C57Bl/6, complement 5 deficient (C5-/-) and sufficient (C5+/+) mice were subjected to 25% blood loss. In some cases, C57Bl/6 mice we...
