In the present study, to evaluate the role of Ku80 in thyroid carcinoma (TC), 86 thyroid tissue samples from patients with a spectrum of thyroid disorders were examined for protein levels of Ku80, nuclear factor‑κB (NF‑κB) and RET/TC by immunohistochemistry.

Specific binding of the methyl binding domain protein 2 at the BRCA1-NBR2 locus [PDF]
The methyl-CpG binding domain (MBD) proteins are key molecules in the interpretation of DNA methylation signals leading to gene silencing. We investigated their binding specificity at the constitutively methylated region of a CpG island containing the ...

Essentiality of Plasmodium falciparum plasmepsin V.
The malaria parasite replicates within erythrocytes. The pathogenesis of clinical malaria is in large part due to the capacity of the parasite to remodel its host cell.

Quantification of functionalised gold nanoparticle-targeted knockdown of gene expression in HeLa cells. [PDF]
Gene therapy continues to grow as an important area of research, primarily because of its potential in the treatment of disease. One significant area where there is a need for better understanding is in improving the efficiency of oligonucleotide ...

Small molecule induced reactivation of mutant p53 in cancer cells [PDF]
The p53 cancer mutant Y220C is an excellent paradigm for rescuing the function of conformationally unstable p53 mutants because it has a unique surface crevice that can be targeted by small-molecule stabilizers.

Vapor nanobubble is the more reliable photothermal mechanism for inducing endosomal escape of siRNA without disturbing cell homeostasis [PDF]
Strategies for controlled delivery of therapeutic siRNA into living cells are in high demand as endosomal escape remains the most prominent bottleneck at the intracellular level.

Comparing artificial neural networks, general linear models and support vector machines in building predictive models for small interfering RNAs. [PDF]
BackgroundExogenous short interfering RNAs (siRNAs) induce a gene knockdown effect in cells by interacting with naturally occurring RNA processing machinery. However not all siRNAs induce this effect equally.
