Environmental factors affecting transcription of the human L1 retrotransposon. II. Stressors.
Retrotransposons have clearly molded the structure of the human genome. The reverse transcriptase coded for by long interspersed nuclear elements (LINEs) accounts for 35% of the human genome, with 8-9 x 10(5) copies of the most common human LINE element, L1Hs. Retrotransposons cycle through an RNA intermediate with transcription as the rate limiting step. Because various retrotransposons have b...
متن کاملI-34: Steroid Hormone Signalling at the FetomaternalInterface
Background: Progesterone is indispensable for differentiation of human endometrial stromal cells (HESCs) into decidual cells, a process that critically controls embryo implantation. However, HESCs also abundantly express androgen receptors (AR), yet the role of this member of the superfamily of ligand-dependent transcription factors in the decidual process remains poorly elucidated. Materials a...
متن کاملNovel PRD-like homeodomain transcription factors and retrotransposon elements in early human development
Transcriptional program that drives human preimplantation development is largely unknown. Here, by using single-cell RNA sequencing of 348 oocytes, zygotes and single blastomeres from 2- to 3-day-old embryos, we provide a detailed analysis of the human preimplantation transcriptome. By quantifying transcript far 5'-ends (TFEs), we include in our analysis transcripts that derive from alternative...
متن کاملI. Hepatocarcinogenesis by the Steroid Hormone Dehydroepiandrosterone
The significance of steroid and peptide hormones for tumour initiation and progression in a number of organs and tissues of various species including humans has been demonstrated by numerous experimental and epidemiological studies. More recently different hormone-stimulated signal transduction pathways have been partly unravelled and their components have been identified and characterised. The...
متن کاملthe effect of taftan pozzolan on the compressive strength of concrete in the environmental conditions of oman sea (chabahar port)
cement is an essential ingredient in the concrete buildings. for production of cement considerable amount of fossil fuel and electrical energy is consumed. on the other hand for generating one tone of portland cement, nearly one ton of carbon dioxide is released. it shows that 7 percent of the total released carbon dioxide in the world relates to the cement industry. considering ecological issu...
