A deletion in the CMAH gene in humans occurred approximately 3.5 million years ago. This resulted in the inactivation of the CMP-Neu5Ac hydroxylase enzyme, and hence, in the specific deficiency in N-glycolylneuraminic acid (Neu5Gc), a form of sialic acid, in all modern humans. Although there is evid...

Parathyroid hormone-related protein (PTHrP) is overexpressed in many cancer types. This secretory protein can induce hypercalcaemia of malignancy by mimicking the action of calcium-regulating parathyroid hormone (PTH). PTHrP may also be involved in the regulation of migration, invasion, proliferatio...

(R,R’)-4-methoxy-1-naphthylfenoterol (MNF) inhibits in vitro proliferation of several types of cancer cell lines. In this study, the in vivo antitumor effects of MNF were evaluated using rat C6 glioma cells implanted subcutaneously into the lower flank of 5 week-old NMRI/Nude female Swiss mice. Thre...

Histological analysis of biopsy is the gold standard to assess renal allograft status. Furthermore, 1-year protocol biopsy is often performed to evaluated graft outcome. However, since biopsy cannot be performed in a time serial basis, we decided to investigate whether blood can be a good compartmen...

The retinoblastoma protein (pRB) is best known for regulating cell proliferation through E2F transcription factors. In this report we investigate the properties of a targeted mutation that disrupts pRB interactions with the transactivation domain of E2Fs. Mice that carry this mutation endogenously (...

Patients with high-risk localized prostate cancer (tumor-node-metastasis ≥ T2b or prostate-specific antigen ≥ 15 ng/mL or Gleason glade ≥ 4+3) were enrolled into a phase II clinical trial of neoadjuvant chemotherapy with docetaxel and mitoxantrone followed by prostatectomy. Pretreatment prostate tis...

Microarray analysis has been applied to the study of ALS in order to investigate gene expression in whole spinal cord homogenates of SOD1 G93A mice and human ALS cases, although the massive presence of glial cells and inflammatory factors has made it difficult to define which gene expression changes...

Mitochondrial genomes are separated from the nuclear genome for most of the cell cycle by the nuclear double membrane, intervening cytoplasm and the mitochondrial double membrane. Despite these physical barriers we show that somatically acquired mitochondrial-nuclear genome fusion sequences are pres...
Diamond-Blackfan anemia (DBA) is a congenital disorder that results predominantly from mutations in various ribosomal protein genes. In order to determine how these mutations affect the translation of specific mRNAs, we performed microarray analysis of polysomal transcripts isolated from lymphoblast...

In this study we have performed expression analysis using paired FF-FFPE glioma samples. We show that expression data from FFPE glioma material is concordant with expression data from matched FF tissue, and can be used for molecular profiling in gliomas. In this study we have performed expression an...
