Gene Therapy for Acquired and Genetic Cholestasis
Cholestatic diseases can be caused by the dysfunction of transporters involved in hepatobiliary circulation. Although pharmacological treatments constitute the current standard of care for these diseases, none are curative, with liver transplantation ...

Quantifying the noise in bursty gene expression under regulation by small RNAs [PDF]
Gene expression is a fundamental process in a living system. The small RNAs (sRNAs) is widely observed as a global regulator in gene expression. The inherent nonlinearity in this regulatory process together with the bursty production of messenger RNA (mRNA), sRNA and protein make the exact solution for this stochastic process intractable.

Background: Viral oncogenes and mutated proto-oncogenes are potent drivers of cancer malignancy. Downstream of the oncogenic trigger are alterations in protein properties that give rise to cellular transformation and the acquisition of malignant cellular

Cellular and Extracellular Vesicle RNA Analysis in the Global Threat Fungus Candida auris
Emerging and reemerging pathogens are a worldwide concern, and it is predicted that these microbes will cause severe outbreaks. Candida auris affects people with weakened immune systems, particularly those who are hospitalized or are in health care ...

Regulation of gene expression by insulin [PDF]
While insulin has long been known to modulate intracellular metabolism by altering the activity or intracellular location of various enzymes, it is only in the past 10 years that the regulation of gene expression by insulin has been recognized as a major action of this hormone. This review principally focuses on the regulation of gene transcription by

Opposing Roles of Wild-type and Mutant p53 in the Process of Epithelial to Mesenchymal Transition
The central role of an aberrantly activated EMT program in defining the critical features of aggressive carcinomas is well documented and includes cell plasticity, metastatic dissemination, drug resistance, and cancer stem cell-like phenotypes.

Functional Characteristics of Gene Expression Motifs with Single and Dual Strategies of Regulation [PDF]
Transcriptional regulation by transcription factors and post-transcriptional regulation by microRNAs constitute two major modes of regulation of gene expression. While gene expression motifs incorporating solely transcriptional regulation are well investigated, the dynamics of motifs with dual strategies of regulation, i.e., both transcriptional and ...

Regulation of myogenic gene expression
Skeletal muscle development and regeneration is governed by the combined action of Myf5, MyoD, Mrf4 and MyoG, also known as the myogenic regulatory factors (MRFs). These transcription factors are expressed in a highly spatio-temporal restricted manner, ensuring the significant functional and metabolic diversity observed between the different muscle ...

The context of gene expression regulation [PDF]
Recent advances in sequencing technologies have uncovered a world of RNAs that do not code for proteins, known as non-protein coding RNAs, that play important roles in gene regulation. Along with histone modifications and transcription factors, non-coding RNA is part of a layer of transcriptional control on top of the DNA code. This layer of components
