Dano fotoinduzido no sistema endolisossomal: modulação da autofagia e metabolismo de lipídios em células de câncer colorretal

O câncer colorretal (CCR) é o terceiro câncer mais diagnosticado em humanos. O CCR causou mais de 900.000 mortes em 2020 e foi estimado, para o período entre 2020 - 2025, um incremento de 13.5 % no número de casos novos de acordo com a plataforma Web Global Cancer Observatory. A Terapia Fotodinâmic...

Studying Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis through a Network Medicine Approach

Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis (JIA) is a group of inflammatory conditions of unknown etiology whose underlying molecular pathophysiology is still not well characterized. Several studies have attempted to fill this gap by characterizing the gene expression profiles of JIA patients. However, there is a lac...

Era-like GTP protein gene expression in rice

Braz. j. biol; 82 (), 2022
The mutations are genetic changes in the genome sequences and have a significant role in biotechnology, genetics, and molecular biology even to find out the genome sequences of a cell DNA along with the viral RNA sequencing. The mutations are the alterations in DNA that may be natural or spontaneous and ...

Effect of boric acid application on antioxidant enzymes activity and gene expression in Safflower (Carthamus tinctorius L) cultivars

Abstract: Boron is one of the most important micronutrients for plants. Plants may suffer from deficiency or with boron toxicity. Boron plays a role in significant physiological and biochemical events in plants such as synthesis of the cell wall, membrane integrity, antioxidation, transport of photosynth...

Zofenopril antitumor activity in mice bearing Ehrlich solid carcinoma: Modulation of PI3K/AKT signaling pathway

Angiotensin-II (AgII) is thought to be crucial for tumor growth and progression. Moreover, hydrogen sulfide (H2S) performs a controversial action in cancer pathology. Zofenopril (ZF) is an angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor with H2S donating properties. Hence, this study aims at investigating ...

Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL): evaluation of AKT protein kinase and microRNA gene expression related to disease pathogenesis

Abstract The present study evaluated 56 patients diagnosed with Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia (CLL) and a control group of 44 clinically healthy subjects with no previous history of leukemia. Genetic expressions of AKT and microRNAs were evaluated by quantitative PCR (qPCR). A significant increase in AKT ...

Evaluation of miR-15a, miR-16-1, ZAP-70, Ang-2, and Bcl-2 as potential prognostic biomarkers in chronic lymphocytic leukemia

Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is a blood cancer characterized by the accumulation of clonal B-lymphocytes. This study evaluated the mRNA gene expression of miR-15a, miR-16- 1, ZAP-70, and Ang-2 by qPCR, as well as the plasma levels of Bcl-2 by Elisa immunoassay, in CLL patients and healthy controls....

Up-regulation of Arl4a gene expression by broccoli aqueous extract is associated with improved spermatogenesis in mouse testes

Biomédica (Bogotá); 41 (4), 2021
Abstract | Introduction: Broccoli (Brassica oleracea) is well known for its properties as an anticancer, antioxidant, and scavenger of free radicals. However, its benefits in enhancing spermatogenesis have not been well established. Objective: To study broccoli aqueous extract effects on sperm factors a...

Sistemas de expresión de proteínas recombinantes para el análisis funcional de antígenos de Plasmodium falciparum y Plasmodium vivax: una revisión

Introducción: Para diseñar vacunas es necesario comprender la función de los antígenos de Plasmodium spp. in-volucrados en la invasión a células hospederas. Diferentes investigaciones han generado proteínas recombinantes utilizando sistemas de expresión heterólogos y así han obtenido m...
