Cell orientation induced by extracellular signalsCell Biochemistry and Biophysics - Tập 30 - Trang 167-192 - 1999
Ralf Kemkemer, Cornelia Neidlinger-Wilke, Lutz Claes, Hans Gruler
Cells like fibroblasts and osteoblasts are oriented by different extracellular
guiding signals like an electric field, a bent surface, and a periodically
stretched surface. An automatic controller is responsible for the cell
alignment. The controller contains both a deterministic and a stochastic signal.
The following machine properties were determined:... hiện toàn bộ
Immunosuppressive Effect of Hypodermin C on Complement Component 3 In VitroCell Biochemistry and Biophysics - Tập 72 - Trang 93-98 - 2014
An-Kang Hu, Ren-Jin Chen, Xiao-Rong Zhu, Jian-Hong Gu, Zong-Ping Liu
Hypodermins A (HA), B (HB) and C (HC) are the major proteases secreted by
first-instar larvae of Hypoderma lineatum (Diptera: Oestridae). These proteases
are involved in the larval migration in the tissue, and prevent the activation
of the host immune response. We previously showed that the recombinant HA
functions as an immunosuppressive agent which could inhibit the rejection of
xenotransplants.... hiện toàn bộ
DNA Microarray and Quantitative Analysis Reveal Enhanced Myocardial VEGF Expression with Stunted Angiogenesis in Human Tetralogy of FallotCell Biochemistry and Biophysics - Tập 67 - Trang 305-316 - 2013

Tetralogy of Fallot (ToF) is a cyanotic congenital heart disease with prominent
right ventricular hypertrophy (RVH) associated with impaired myocardial oxygen
and nutrient supply. Consequently, the right ventricle may manifest in altered
molecular phenotype with a number of adaptive and inherited gene profiles which
are largely unknown. The aim of the present study was to investigate the
myocardia... hiện toàn bộ
Very-long-chain fatty acid metabolism in adrenoleukodystrophy protein-deficient miceCell Biochemistry and Biophysics - Tập 32 - Trang 239-246 - 2000
Takeshi Yamada, Nobue Shinnoh, Akira Kondo, Atsushi Uchiyama, Nobuyuki Shimozawa, Jun-ichi Kira, Takuro Kobayashi
X-linked adrenoleukodystrophy (X-ALD) is characterized by progressive mental and
motor deterioration, with demyelination of the central and peripheral nervous
system. Its principal biochemical abnormality is the accumulation of
very-long-chain fatty acids (VLCFAs) in tissues and body fluids, caused by the
impairment of peroxisomal β-oxidation. The authors have generated a line of mice
deficient in... hiện toàn bộ
Construction of an Inducible CRISPR/Cas9 System for CXCR4 Gene and Demonstration of its Effects on MKN-45 CellsCell Biochemistry and Biophysics - Tập 78 - Trang 23-30 - 2019
Yanhua Peng, Taobo Yang, Xixi Tang, Fei Chen, Shouyong Wang
The CRISPR/Cas9 system is an effective tool for gene editing. However, this
conventional expression system cannot control the timing of gene editing and
does not utilize resistance screening markers. Therefore, carrying out
CRISPR/Cas9 experiments is extremely inconvenient. Our aim is to develop an
inducible lentiviral vector-based gene-editing system for C-X-C chemokine
receptor 4 (CXCR4) by CRIS... hiện toàn bộ
Repair of oxidative DNA damageCell Biochemistry and Biophysics - Tập 35 - Trang 141-170 - 2001
A.-Lien Lu, Xianghong Li, Yesong Gu, Patrick M. Wright, Dau-Yin Chang
Cellular genomes suffer extensive damage from exogenous agents and reactive
oxygen species formed during normal metabolism. The MutT homologs (MutT/MTH)
remove oxidized nucleotide precursors so that they cannot be incorporated into
DNA during replication. Among many repair pathways, the base excision repair
(BER) pathway is the most important cellular protection mechanism responding to
oxidative D... hiện toàn bộ
Use of adenoviruses to study isoform specificity of G-protein-receptor-coupled Ca2+ signaling in intact epithelial cellsCell Biochemistry and Biophysics - Tập 36 - Trang 221-233 - 2002
Philip Poronnik, Michelle M. Cummins, Lauren M. O'Mullane, David I. Cook
It is firmly established that the activation of many heptahelical receptors by
extracellular agonists leads to the activation of effectors such as
phospholipase Cβ (PLCβ), the subsequent production of
inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3), and a resultant increase in intracellular
free Ca2+. Heterotrimeric G-proteins have a critical role in transducing the
signal from the hepthalelical receptor to PL... hiện toàn bộ
The Expression of HSPD1, SCUBE3, CXCL14 and Its Relations with the Prognosis in OsteosarcomaCell Biochemistry and Biophysics - Tập 73 - Trang 763-768 - 2015
Wenqing Liang, Chengwei Yang, Jiahao Peng, Yu Qian, Zirui Wang
The aim of the study was to explore the expression of three genes, HSPD1,
SCUBE3, and CXCL14, in osteosarcoma cells and tissue, as well as their
association with the prognosis of patients with osteosarcoma. The expression of
HSPD1, SCUBE3, and CXCL14 in osteosarcoma cells was detected by using Western
blotting method. siRNA was used to knockdown the expression of the three genes.

Suppression of lncRNA HOXA11-AS/miR-124 Axis Inhibits Glioma ProgressionCell Biochemistry and Biophysics - Tập 79 - Trang 815-822 - 2021
Yishan He, Xinguang Qiu
Our aim was to clarify the regulations of lncRNA HOXA11-AS (HOXA11-AS) played on
the progression of glioma as well as to investigate the mechanisms by which
HOXA11-AS modulated development of glioma. This study confirmed the regulations
of miR-124 and HOXA11-AS on the progression of glioma. Here, HOXA11-AS was
overexpressed and miR-124 was underexpressed in glioma. Expression of miR-124
was negati... hiện toàn bộ
