Master regulators of posttranscriptional gene expression are subject to regulation
(Springer, 2014)
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small noncoding RNAs of 17-25 nt in length that control gene expression posttranscriptionally. As master regulators of posttranscriptional gene expression, miRNAs themselves are subject to tight ...
EPO mediates neurotrophic, neuroprotective, anti-oxidant, and anti-apoptotic effects via downregulation of miR-451 and miR-885-5p in SH-SY5Y neuron-like cells
(Frontiers Media, 2014-09)
Erythropoietin (EPO) is a neuroprotective cytokine, which has been applied in several animal models presenting neurological disorders. One of the proposed modes of action resulting in neuroprotection is post-transcriptional ...
Genome-wide SNP discovery and QTL mapping for fruit quality traits in inbred backcross lines (IBLs) of solanum pimpinellifolium using genotyping by sequencing
(BioMed Central, 2017-01)
Background: Solanum pimpinellifolium has high breeding potential for fruit quality traits and has been used as a donor in tomato breeding programs. Unlocking the genetic potential of S. pimpinellifolium requires high-throughput ...
Hyaluronidase 1 and β-hexosaminidase have redundant functions in hyaluronan and chondroitin sulfate degradation
(American Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 2012-05)
Hyaluronan (HA), a member of the glycosaminoglycan (GAG) family, is a critical component of the extracellular matrix. A model for HA degradation that invokes the activity of both hyaluronidases and exoglycosidases has been ...
PGMiner: Complete proteogenomics workflow; from data acquisition to result visualization
(Elsevier, 2017-04)
In parallel with the development of nucleotide sequencing an equally important interest in further describing the sequence in terms of function arose and the latter represents the current bottleneck in the overall research ...
Anti-proliferative, apoptotic and signal transduction effects of hesperidin in non-small cell lung cancer cells
(Springer, 2015-06-29)
Purpose: Hesperidin, a glycoside flavonoid, is thought to act as an anti-cancer agent, since it has been found to exhibit both pro-apoptotic and anti-proliferative effects in several cancer cell types. The mechanisms ...
Macromolecular changes in nilotinib resistant k562 cells; An in vitro study by fourier transform infrared spectroscopy
(SAGE Publications, 2012-08)
Nilotinib is a second generation tyrosine kinase inhibitor which is used in both first and second line treatment of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). In the present work, the effects of nilotinib resistance on K562 cells ...
Effect of biopolymers containing natamycin against Aspergillus niger and Penicillium roquefortii on fresh kashar cheese
(Wiley, 2011)
Fungal spoilage during refrigerated storage is one of the main safety and quality-related problems for dairy products. The effect of wheat gluten (WG) and methyl cellulose (MC) biopolymers containing natamycin (NA) on the ...
Bioactive, functional and edible film-forming properties of isolated hazelnut (Corylus avellana L.) meal proteins
(Elsevier, 2014-05)
This study aimed characterization of bioactive, functional and edible film making properties of isolated proteins from untreated (HPI), hot extracted (HPI-H), acetone washed (HPI-AW), and acetone washed and hot extracted ...
IL-17, IL-21, and IL-22 cytokines of T helper 17 cells in cancer
(Mary Ann Liebert, 2019-01)
CD4(+) T helper (Th) cells are important regulators of cellular immune response. Newly discovered interleukin (IL)-17-producing CD4(+) T cells are known as T helper 17 cells (Th17). They are distinct subset from the T ...
