Engagement of the B cell receptor of WEHI 231 immature B cells leads sequentially to a drop in c-Myc, to induction of the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor p27Kip1, and finally to apoptosis. Recently we demonstrated that the drop in c-Myc expression promotes cell death, whereas the induction of p27 has been shown to lead to growth arrest. In this paper, we demonstrate that increased p27 express...

The association between consumption of genistein-containing soybean products and lower risk of breast cancer suggests a cancer chemopreventive role for genistein. Consistent with this suggestion, exposing cultured human breast cancer cells to genistein inhibits cell proliferation, although this is not completely understood. To better understand how genistein works, the ability of genistein to i...

Three newly synthesized copper complexes with pyridoxal semicarbazone (PLSC), as ligand, after being subjected to biological tests, showed anticancer activity. As ligand PLSC is biologically active, the results of biological activity are as expected. Specifically, an activity was demonstrated in breast cancer cells (MCF7 and MDA MB 231) and proliferative cells (MCF7).

We have developed a single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) nucleated high-resolution melting (HRM) technique to genotype Enterococcus faecium. Eight SNPs were derived from the E. faecium multilocus sequence typing (MLST) database and amplified fragments containing these SNPs were interrogated by HRM. We tested the HRM genotyping scheme on 85 E. faecium bloodstream isolates and compared the result...

the aims of the present study were to propose apolymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphismpcr-rflp genotyping method for the ay_376689:c.773c>t single nucleotide polymorphism snp of the equine prkag3 gene, related to muscle performance, as well as to characterize this snp and a second polymorphism, aawr_02017454:g.121684t>c of the spata1 gene, related to male fertility, i...

BACKGROUND Nardostachys jatamansi DC is a Himalayan medicinal herb that has been described in various traditional systems of medicine for its use in cancer. In view of its traditional claims, and chemical constituents, antioxidant and anticancer activities were evaluated in breast carcinoma. METHODS Petroleum ether (NJPE), methanol extract (NJM) and subsequent diethyl ether (NJDE), ethyl acet...

With the better understanding of human genome and genetic contributions to complex diseases, more clinical tests have been developed for prevention, diagnosis, treatment diseases. This has raised new challenges classroom teaching medical genetics (MG) in education undergraduates, who are relatively naive about theory technology MG. A clear genotype-phenotype relationships is critical MG learnin...

An element of a ring $R$ is called clear if it sum unit-regular and unit. associative each its elements clear.In this paper we defined rings extended many results to wider class. Finally, proved that commutative Bezout domain an elementary divisor only every full $2\times 2$ matrix over nontrivially clear.

Tamoxifen (TAM) is a triphenylethylene antiestrogen used for the treatment, and in clinical trials for the prevention, of breast cancer in women. In rats, TAM is a strong liver carcinogen which induces the formation of liver DNA adducts. The DNA of 24 hepatocarcinomas (HCCs) collected at necropsy from individual female Sprague-Dawley rats that were given 22.6 mg/kg TAM daily for 12 months was s...
