Developmental changes of gene expression after spinal cord injury in neonatal opossums
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2010)
Changes in gene expression have been measured 24 h after injury to mammalian spinal cords that can and cannot regenerate In opossums there is a critical period of development when regeneration stops being possible at 9 ...
The Genetics of Alzheimer`s Disease in Brazil: 10 Years of Analysis in a Unique Population
(HUMANA PRESS INC, 2009)
Alzheimer`s Disease (AD) is the most common type of dementia among the elderly, with devastating consequences for the patient, their relatives, and caregivers. More than 300 genetic polymorphisms have been involved with ...
The iron stimulon of Xylella fastidiosa includes genes for type IV pilus and colicin V-like bacteriocins
(AMER SOC MICROBIOLOGY, 2008)
Xylella fastidiosa is the etiologic agent of a wide range of plant diseases, including citrus variegated chlorosis (CVC), a major threat to citrus industry. The genomes of several strains of this phytopathogen were completely ...
Early Changes in Gene Expression Induced by Tobacco Smoke: Evidence for the Importance of Estrogen within Lung Tissue
(AMER ASSOC CANCER RESEARCH, 2010)
Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer deaths in the United States, surpassing breast cancer as the primary cause of cancer-related mortality in women. The goal of the present study was to identify early molecular ...
Expression Profile of Rat Hippocampal Neurons Treated with the Neuroprotective Compound 2,4-Dinitrophenol: Up-Regulation of cAMP Signaling Genes
(SPRINGER, 2010)
2,4-Dinitrophenol (DNP) is classically known as a mitochondrial uncoupler and, at high concentrations, is toxic to a variety of cells. However, it has recently been shown that, at subtoxic concentrations, DNP protects ...
Bladder expression of CD cell surface antigens and cell-type-specific transcriptomes
(SPRINGERNEW YORK, 2013-08-02)
Many cell types have no known functional attributes. In the bladder and prostate, basal epithelial and stromal cells appear similar in cytomorphology and share several cell surface markers. Their total gene expression ...
Angiotensin II Facilitates Breast Cancer Cell Migration and Metastasis
(PUBLIC LIBRARY SCIENCESAN FRANCISCO, 2013-08-02)
Breast cancer metastasis is a leading cause of death by malignancy in women worldwide. Efforts are being made to further characterize the rate-limiting steps of cancer metastasis, i.e. extravasation of circulating tumor ...
Apoptosis rate and transcriptional response of pancreatic islets exposed to the PPAR gamma agonist Pioglitazone
(2013)
To explore the molecular pathways underlying thiazolidinediones effects on pancreatic islets in conditions mimicking normo- and hyperglycemia, apoptosis rate and transcriptional response to Pioglitazone at both physiological ...
Multivariate gene expression analysis reveals functional connectivity changes between normal/tumoral prostates
(2008)
Abstract
Background
Prostate cancer is a leading cause of death in the male population, therefore, a comprehensive study about ...
Molecular determinants of caste differentiation in the highly eusocial honeybee Apis mellifera
(2007-06-18)
Abstract
Background
In honeybees, differential feeding of female larvae promotes the occurrence of two different phenotypes, a queen and a worker, from identical genotypes, ...
