Control of gene expression at the level of translation initiation [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Biotechnology, 1994
Protein synthesis is controlled at the level of translation initiation. Cells rapidly respond to environmental changes by disassembly of polysomes and recruitment of specific mRNAs from inactive ribonucleoprotein particles into polysomes active in translation.

Analysis of WWOX gene expression and protein levels in pterygium

open access: yesInternational Ophthalmology, 2020
Pterygium, a degenerative and hyperplastic lesion, has premalignant properties as a tumor analog. WWOX is a tumor suppressor gene and involved in many signal pathways, such as cell proliferation, embryonic development, metabolism and apoptosis. In many cancers, the loss of WWOX or the presence of abnormal transcripts indicates the tumor suppressor ...

Organoids in pediatric cancer research

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Organoid technology has revolutionized cancer research, yet its application in pediatric oncology remains limited. Recent advances have enabled the development of pediatric tumor organoids, offering new insights into disease biology, treatment response, and interactions with the tumor microenvironment.

A global view of the oncogenic landscape in nasopharyngeal carcinoma : an integrated analysis at the genetic and expression levels [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Previous studies have reported that the tumour cells of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) exhibit recurrent chromosome abnormalities. These genetic changes are broadly assumed to lead to changes in gene expression which are important for the pathogenesis of

Addendum: Precise tuning of gene expression levels in mammalian cells

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
Following re-sequencing of the miSFIT constructs used in the paper, two of the construct variants inserted into the 3’UTR of PD-1, namely ‘12C’ and ‘17A, 18G’, have been found to contain additional insertions not present in the other construct variants ...

Heavy alcohol drinking downregulates ALDH2 gene expression but heavy smoking up-regulates SOD2 gene expression in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma

open access: yesWorld Journal of Surgical Oncology, 2017
Background This study aims to determine the relationship between expression levels of ALDH2 and SOD2 genes and clinical parameters such as alcohol drinking, tobacco smoking, primary site of HNSCC, and human papilloma virus (HPV) state.

Reciprocal control of viral infection and phosphoinositide dynamics

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Phosphoinositides, although scarce, regulate key cellular processes, including membrane dynamics and signaling. Viruses exploit these lipids to support their entry, replication, assembly, and egress. The central role of phosphoinositides in infection highlights phosphoinositide metabolism as a promising antiviral target.

Ameliorative effects of strigolactone on tolerance to lead stress on lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.) plants

open access: yesScientific Reports
Soil contamination by heavy metals, particularly lead (Pb), which is considered the second most toxic metal, poses serious risks to plants and humans due to its accumulation from various anthropogenic activities. Strigolactones (SLs) are a novel class of

Phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinase as a target of pathogens—friend or foe?

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This graphical summary illustrates the roles of phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinases (PI4Ks). PI4Ks regulate key cellular processes and can be hijacked by pathogens, such as viruses, bacteria and parasites, to support their intracellular replication. Their dual role as essential host enzymes and pathogen cofactors makes them promising drug targets.

Delivery of human apolipoprotein (apo) E to liver by an [E1(-), E3(-), polymerase(-), pTP(-)] adenovirus vector containing a liver-specific promoter inhibits atherogenesis in immunocompetent apoE-deficient mice [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Recombinant adenovirus (rAd)-mediated apoE gene transfer to the liver of apoE(-/-) mice is anti-atherogenic. However, first generation rAd vectors were associated with immune clearance of transduced hepatocytes, while an improved [E1(-), E3(-) polymerase(
