  • Therefore, finding out molecular mechanisms by which reactive astrocytes can be coaxed into neurons will be of utmost importance for regenerative therapies as these astrocytes are the imminent cell types around the lesion site. (frontiersin.org)
  • Finally, by using in-utero electroporation to delete RhoA in individual cells, we found out that the misplacements of neurons in the heterotopic cortex was not due to an inability of RhoA-neg. (uni-muenchen.de)

  • HepaCAM inhibits the malignant behavior of castration-resistant prostate cancer cells by downregulating Notch signaling and PF-3084014 (a γ-secretase inhibitor) partly reverses the resistance of refractory prostate cancer to docetaxel and enzalutamide in vitro. (nih.gov)
  • Multiple myeloma (MM) is a malignant plasma cell disorder with debilitating symptoms related to anemia, immunosuppression, bone destruction, and renal failure. (haematologica.org)
  • Cancer (medical term: malignant neoplasm) is a class of diseases in which a group of cells display uncontrolled growth (division beyond the normal limits), invasion (intrusion on and destruction of adjacent tissues), and sometimes metastasis (spread to other locations in the body via lymph or blood). (medicalxpress.com)
  • Numerous vectors have been engineered for the sole purpose of killing cancer cells, and some have successfully suppressed malignant tumours. (weeksmd.com)
  • Breast metastatic tumors in lung can be substituted by lung-derived malignant cells transformed by alternative splicing H19 lncRNA. (medscape.com)
  • PTEN was validated by dual luciferase assay as a target gene of miR-183. (nature.com)
  • Cellular senescence refers to active cells that eventually enter a state of irreversible growth arrest. (hindawi.com)
  • It was also shown that inhibition of the p16 tumour suppressor gene delays growth arrest and therefore senescence of MSC [ 16 ]. (hindawi.com)
  • c-Myc also consistently represses genes involved in cell growth arrest and cell adhesion. (elsevierpure.com)
  • Human embryonic stem cell (hESC)-derived MSCs are an alternative to adult MSCs that can circumvent issues regarding scalability and consistent quality due to their derivation from a renewable starting material. (nature.com)
  • Through qRT-PCR analysis, miR-183 and PTEN mRNA levels in breast cancer cell lines were measured. (nature.com)
  • Adult tissue-derived mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) are showing promise in clinical trials for systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). (nature.com)
  • Two different studies explored gene-expression profiling by microarray technology as a tool to accurately diagnose Burkitt lymphoma (BL) and differentiate it from DLBCL due to the significant difference in prognosis and treatment approaches for these diseases. (medscape.com)
  • ABSTRACT This study aimed to evaluate the association of plasma MIF level and -173 G/C single nucleotide polymorphism of the MIF gene with the occurrence, severity and mortality of sepsis patients. (who.int)

  • Our hypothesis is that multicellularity and cancer are two sides of the same coin," said Rokhsar, program head for computational genomics at JGI and a professor of molecular and cell biology and of physics at UC Berkeley. (berkeley.edu)
  • Biomedical engineers at Duke University have significantly enhanced the capabilities of a computational model that simulates the movement of individual cancer cells across long distances within the entire human body. (medicalxpress.com)
  • The aim of this study is to examine the role of genetic deficiency of the miR-181b locus in endothelial cells during atherogenesis. (unl.edu)
  • Nearly all cancers are caused by abnormalities in the genetic material of the transformed cells. (medicalxpress.com)
  • Other cancer-promoting genetic abnormalities may be randomly acquired through errors in DNA replication, or are inherited, and thus present in all cells from birth. (medicalxpress.com)
  • Genetic abnormalities found in cancer typically affect two general classes of genes. (medicalxpress.com)
  • This novel frameshift mutation causing FAP not only expands the germline mutation spectrum of the APC gene in the Chinese population, but it also increases the understanding of the phenotypic and genotypic correlations of FAP, and may potentially lead to improved genetic counseling and specific treatment for families with FAP in the future.
