The efficacy of photodynamic therapy for treating premalignant and malignant tumors is often limited by the emerging resistant tumor cells. We have developed experimental model systems to study the mechanisms associated with resistance to photodynamic therapy induced by structurally similar photosen...

Inflammation, oxidative and dicarbonyl stress play important roles in the pathophysiology of type 2 diabetes. Metformin is the first-line drug of choice for the treatment of type 2 diabetes because it effectively suppresses gluconeogenesis in the liver, however, its “pleiotropic“ effects remain cont...

DISP3 (PTCHD2), a sterol-sensing domain-containing protein, is highly expressed in neural tissue but its role in neural differentiation is unknown. To determine the effect of DISP3 on neural stem cells phenotype of NS-5 cells, we impaired Disp3 gene using CRISPR/Cas9 technology. Modification of Disp...

This study investigates the molecular mechanisms underlying salt-sensitive hypertension in a model of primary aldosteronism using RNA-Seq analysis of Sprague Dawley rat skin. Unilaterally nephrectomized rats were treated with aldosterone or vehicle and fed a high-salt or low-salt diet. Tissue electr...

Four male SHR/Ola, BN and SHR-18 rats were fed a normal diet and sacrificed at 9 weeks of age. Four male SHR/Ola and SHR-18 rats at 8 weeks of age were fed 1% NaCl for one week and then sacrificed. Kidneys were removed and frozen in liquid nitrogen for all 20 animals. Total RNA was isolated, labelle...

FLT3 is the most frequently mutated gene in AML – up to 40% of AML harbor an activating mutation within FLT3 gene. Though AML is a relatively rare disease, such a high mutability rate, as observed with FLT3 gene, is striking. To elucidate the molecular background of this phenomenon, we have establ...

Inflammation and oxidative stress have been implicated in the pathogenesis of metabolic disturbances. Esters of fumaric acid, mainly dimethyl fumarate (DMF), exhibit immunomodulatory, anti-inflammatory, and anti-oxidative effects. In the current study, we tested the hypothesis that fumaric acid este...

The spontaneously hypertensive rat (SHR) is the most widely used model of essential hypertension and is predisposed to left ventricular hypertrophy, myocardial fibrosis, and metabolic disturbances. Recently, a quantitative trait locus (QTL) influencing blood pressure, left ventricular mass and heart...
