Metastatic melanoma is an aggressive treatment-refractory malignancy. Recently, c-Kit mutations were discovered in certain mucosal melanomas. A clinical trial was initiated with the c-Kit inhibitor imatinib mesylate. The first treated patient experienced dramatic clinical improvement within days, f...

Foliar stomatal movements are critical for regulating plant water loss and gas exchange. Elevated carbon dioxide (CO2) levels are known to induce stomatal closure. However, the current knowledge on CO2 signal transduction in stomatal guard cells is limited. Here we report metabolomic responses of Br...

We performed RNA-seq experiments on 14 samples to identify differential expressed genes between MelanA- and caIKK-treated monocyte-derived dendritic cells (DCs). DCs electroporated with RNA encoding melanoma antigen recognized by T cells 1 (MelanA) were used as control, and DCs electroporated with R...

Deterioration of functional islet β-cell mass is the final step in progression to Type 2 diabetes. We previously reported that overexpression of Nkx6.1 in rat islets has the dual effects of enhancing glucose-stimulated insulin secretion (GSIS) and increasing β-cell replication. Here we show that Nkx...

Staphylococcus aureus causes a spectrum of human infection. Diagnostic delays and uncertainty lead to treatment delays and inappropriate antibiotic use. A growing literature suggests the hostM-bM-^@M-^Ys inflammatory response to the pathogen represents a potential tool to improve upon current diagno...

The homeodomain transcription factor Nkx6.1 plays an important role in pancreatic islet β-cell development, but its effects on adult β-cell function, survival, and proliferation are not well understood. In the present study, we demonstrated that treatment of primary rat pancreatic islets with a cy...

Molecular profiling studies in asthma cohorts have identified a Th2-driven asthma subtype, characterized by elevated lower airway expression of POSTN, CLCA1 and SERPINB2. To assess upper airway gene expression as a potential biomarker for lower airway Th2 inflammation, we assayed upper airway (nasal...

B6.Cg-Lep ob/ob mice females were surgically implanted in an age of 10-12 weeks with Alzet osmotic mini pumps (model 1002, 0,25l/h, Cupertino, CA, USA) in two groups of ten mice each to perform continuous subcutaneous infusions of Dulbecco's phosphate buffered saline (vehicle; n = 8) or GLP-1 (GLP-1...

The homeodomain transcription factor, Pdx-1, has important roles in pancreatic development and M-NM-2-cell function and survival. In the present study, we demonstrate that adenovirus-mediated overexpression of Pdx-1 in rat or human islets also stimulates cell replication. Moreover, co-overexpression...

The aim of this experiment was to investigate the transcriptomic variation within Blumeria graminis f. sp. hordei during infection of Barley. SOLiD RNA-seq data was generated for 6 samples, three from the epiphytic hyphae and three from the haustoria within the epidermis.
