Genetics is a language with rules of composition that give the tissues of the body their special traits. These rules govern the activation of particular subgroups of genes, which determine not only the unique characteristics of a cell type but also whether it remains quiescent, divides, or dies. The timing of gene activation is very important. If genes

A fundamental tenet of biology is that the phenotype of an organism is ultimately determined by its complement of genes. In multicellular organisms, it is the regulated pattern of expression of genes which determines the proliferation and differentiation of individual cell lineages and hence establishes the adult phenotype.

Regulation of Cytokine Gene Expression
Annual Review of Immunology, 1988Following the isolation and characterization of many cytokine genes, we began to understand the mechanisms regulating cytokine gene expression. Needless to say, understanding the mechanisms by which induction of gene expression occurs in a transient, cell type-specific manner in response to extracellular inducers is a central issue in eukaryotic ...

Regulation of opioid gene expression
Peptides, 1983Opioid peptides are synthesized in the form of large precursors, which contain the information for more than one biologically active peptide. Using recombinant DNA technology, three opioid precursors have been sequenced: pro-opiomelanocortin (POMC), proenkephalin and prodynorphin.

Nutritional regulation of gene expression
Theory in Biosciences, 2001The human genome has now been mapped with a complete sequence to follow shortly. The race is on to apply the vast amount of information contained in the billions of base-pairs. Concurrently, there is an increased demand from the public for perceived natural products.

Regulation Of Neuropeptide Gene Expression
Annual Review of Neuroscience, 1990Understanding of the mechanisms of neuropeptide gene regulation has increased dramatically in the past 5 years. In large part, this increased understanding has resulted from advances in the technology of introducing reporter genes into intact cells in culture.

Regulating gene expression in gene therapy
Trends in Biotechnology, 1993Ensuring that expression of introduced genes is both safe and effective necessitates directing expression to the appropriate tissue, at levels which produce a therapeutic effect. Extensive research is under way to elucidate the mechanisms and genetic elements involved in regulating expression. With the need to correlate expression levels and phenotypic

Glucose regulation of gene expression
Current Opinion in Clinical Nutrition and Metabolic Care, 1998Regulation of gene expression by nutrients in mammals is an important mechanism allowing them to adapt to the nutritional environment. In-vivo and in-vitro experiments have demonstrated that the transcription of genes coding for lipogenic and glycolytic enzymes in liver and/or adipose tissue is upregulated by glucose.

Regulation of Neuronal Gene Expression
Naturwissenschaften, 1999Humans as multicellular organisms contain a variety of different cell types where each cell population must fulfill a distinct function in the interest of the whole organism. The molecular basis for the variations in morphology, biochemistry, molecular biology, and function of the various cell types is the cell-type specific expression of genes.

Androgen regulation of gene expression
The Prostate, 1996Androgen receptors are important transcription factors regulating the expression of a number of genes in androgen-responsive cells and may play a role in prostate cancer. This article describes transcriptional suppressors and other transcription factors which may play important roles in modulating the expression of androgen receptors.
