The polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH), benzo[a]pyrene (BaP), was compared to dibenzo[def,p]chrysene (DBC) and combinations of three environmental PAH mixtures (coal tar, diesel particulate and cigarette smoke condensate) using a two stage, FVB/N mouse skin tumor model. DBC (4 nmol) was most p...

Estrogen signaling is important for vertebrate embryonic development. Here we have used zebrafish (Danio rerio) as a vertebrate model to identify estrogen regulated genes during the first 4 days of development. Zebrafish embryos were exposed to 1 M-BM-5M 17M-NM-2-estradiol from 3 hours post fertiliz...

Multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) are extensively produced and used in composite materials and electronic applications, thus increasing risk of worker and consumer exposure. MWCNTs are an inhomogeneous group of nanomaterials that exist in various lengths, shapes and with different metal composi...

Asc1p and its essential orthologues in higher eukaryotes, as e.g. RACK1 in mammals, are involved in several distinct cellular signaling processes, but the implications of a total deletion have never been assessed in a comprehensive genome-wide manner. This study reveals the major cellular processes ...

Glucocorticoids are widely used therapeutically to suppress inflammatory/immune responses and most of their effects are produced either by altering transcription of specific genes directly, or by altering the expression of transcription factors that subsequently alter the expression of downstream ge...

Two-component signal transduction pathways are one of the primary means by which microorganisms respond to environmental signals. These signaling cascades originated in prokaryotes and were inherited by eukaryotes via endosymbiotic lateral gene transfer from ancestral cyanobacteria. We report here t...

Biallelic inactivating mutations of the transcription factor 1 gene (TCF1), encoding hepatocyte nuclear factor 1a (HNF1a), were identified in 50% of hepatocellular adenomas (HCA) phenotypically characterized by a striking steatosis. To understand the molecular basis of this aberrant lipid storage, w...

OmpR is a DNA binding protein belonging to the OmpR/EnvZ two component system. This system is known to sense changes in osmolarity in Escherichia coli. Recently, OmpR in Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium was found to be activated by acidic pH and DNA relaxation. In this study, ChIP-on-chip wa...

Adverse lung effects in rodents following pulmonary exposure to multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) are well documented. However, systemic effects are less understood. Prospective epidemiological studies have shown increased cardiovascular disease risk after pulmonary exposure to airborne particle...
