The human ets-2 proto-oncogene is one of the homologs of the v-ets gene, found in avian acutely transforming retrovirus E26 (D. Leprince, A. Gegonne, J. Call, C. de Taisne, A. Schneeberger, C. Lagrou, and D. Stehelin, Nature [London] 306:395-397, 1983; M. F. Nunn, P. H. Seeburg, C. Moscovici, and P. H. Duesberg, Nature [London] 306:391-395, 1983), which causes leukemia in chickens. We used the ...

BACKGROUND Although advances in cardiopulmonary resuscitation have improved survival from cardiac arrest (CA), neurologic injury persists and impaired mitochondrial bioenergetics may be critical for targeted neuroresuscitation. The authors sought to determine if excellent cardiopulmonary resuscitation and postresuscitation care and good traditional survival rates result in persistently disorder...

the dye-sensitized solar cells (dssc) have been regarded as one of the most promising new generation solar cells. tremendous research efforts have been invested to improve the efficiency of solar energy conversion which is generally determined by the light harvesting efficiency, electron injection efficiency and undesirable electron lifetime. in this review, various characteristics of dye-sensi...

The proteins of the Ets family are transcription factors involved in signal transduction, cell cycle progression, and differentiation. In this study, we report that thyroid cell neoplastic transformation is associated with a dramatic increase in ETS transcriptional activity, which is dependent on the accumulation of Ets-1, Ets-2, and other Ets-related proteins. Inhibition of ETS transactivation...

The expression of androgen receptor (AR) has been detected in hepatocellular cancer (HCC). However, there is no universal model detailing AR's function and mechanism in HCC. This study's results show that treatment with dihydrotestosterone (DHT), an endogenous androgen, promoted HCC cells' proliferation and up-regulated the transcription factor activity of ETS-1 (E26 transformation specific seq...
