NDRG2 Regulates the Expression of Genes Involved in Epithelial Mesenchymal Transition of Prostate Cancer Cells
Background: Metastasis is the main cause of prostate cancer (PCa) death. The inhibitory effect of N-myc downstream-regulated gene 2 (NDRG2) on the invasiveness properties of PCa cells has been demonstrated previously. However, its underlying mechanisms have not yet been investigated. The present study aimed to investigate the effects of NDRG2 overexpression on the expression of genes involved i...
متن کاملThe Effects of High Intensity Interval Training on HNF-4 α Gene Expression in Liver Tissue of Type 2 Diabetic Male Wistar Rats
Objective: This study examined the effect of high intensity interval training (HIIT) on HNF-4α gene expression, glucose and insulin in liver tissue of type 2 diabetic male Wistar rats. Materials and Methods: In this study, 20 male Wistar rats weighing 220 (±20) grams were selected. After type 2 diabetes (T2D) induction, the samples were divided into two groups of HIIT and control. The training...
متن کاملTriple genetic variation in the HNF-4alpha gene is associated with early-onset type 2 diabetes mellitus in a philippino family.
Maturity-onset diabetes of the young-type 1 (MODY1) is a form of monogenic type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) with long-term complications due to mutations in the HNF-4alpha gene. The HNF-4alpha gene is involved in hepatic differentiation and expression of genes regulating glucose transport, glycolysis, and lipid metabolism. The abnormal glucose-stimulated insulin secretion in MODY1 subjects may b...
متن کاملInsulin Reciprocally Regulates Glucagon Secretion in Humans
OBJECTIVE We tested the hypothesis that an increase in insulin per se, i.e., in the absence of zinc, suppresses glucagon secretion during euglycemia and that a decrease in insulin per se stimulates glucagon secretion during hypoglycemia in humans. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS We measured plasma glucagon concentrations in patients with type 1 diabetes infused with the zinc-free insulin glulisin...
متن کاملFunctional Targets of the Monogenic Diabetes Transcription Factors HNF-1α and HNF-4α Are Highly Conserved Between Mice and Humans
OBJECTIVE The evolutionary conservation of transcriptional mechanisms has been widely exploited to understand human biology and disease. Recent findings, however, unexpectedly showed that the transcriptional regulators hepatocyte nuclear factor (HNF)-1alpha and -4alpha rarely bind to the same genes in mice and humans, leading to the proposal that tissue-specific transcriptional regulation has u...
