hTERT-immortalized ovine microglia propagate natural scrapie isolates

open access: yesVirus Research, 2015
Ex vivo propagation of natural prion isolates (i.e., propagated solely in the natural host) is crucial for the characterization and study of transmissible spongiform encephalopathies (TSEs). Several well-established, prion-permissive cell culture systems are available; however, only a few cell lines are permissive to natural prion isolates and these ...

PITX1 protein interacts with ZCCHC10 to regulate hTERT mRNA transcription.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2019
Telomerase is a ribonucleoprotein ribonucleic enzyme that is essential for cellular immortalization via elongation of telomere repeat sequences at the end of chromosomes. Human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT), the catalytic subunit of telomerase

BORIS/CTCFL-mediated transcriptional regulation of the hTERT telomerase gene in testicular and ovarian tumor cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Telomerase activity, not detectable in somatic cells but frequently activated during carcinogenesis, confers immortality to tumors. Mechanisms governing expression of the catalytic subunit hTERT, the limiting factor for telomerase activity, still remain ...

Quantum Genetics, Quantum Automata and Quantum Computation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
The concepts of quantum automata and quantum computation are studied in the context of quantum genetics and genetic networks with nonlinear dynamics. In a previous publication (Baianu,1971a) the formal concept of quantum automaton was introduced and its ...

A Novel Approach of Virotherapy Based Hsf-1 Shrna in Cancer Eradication [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Cancer is the second leading cause of death worldwide with continues rise mortality rate. Current cancer treatment modalities are still ineffective and associated with many side effects leading to robust research to find new specific target therapy. Heat

RuvB12 as a regulator of hTERT

open access: yes, 2019
Telomere maintenance is essential for the continued proliferation of tumour cells and is performed through the mechanism of telomerase activation or by a recombination-based process referred to as alternative lengthening of telomeres (ALT). The most important components of active telomerase are the reverse transcriptase enzyme (hTERT) and the non ...

TELOMERASE CATALYTIC SUBUNIT mRNA IN LARYNGEAL SQUAMOUS CELL CARCINOMAS

open access: yesZdravniški Vestnik, 2002
Background. Re-activation of the enzyme telomerase, has been detected in nearly 90% of human malignancies. In contrast, normal human somatic cells, with the exception of germ cells and stem cells of renewable tissues, do not have detectable telomerase ...

The Expression of hTERT mRNA and p16 Protein in Non-small Cell Lung Cancer

open access: yesChinese Journal of Lung Cancer, 2009
Background and objective hTERT and p16 are involved in oncogenesis and development of tumor. The aim of this study is to investigate the expression of human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT) and p16 in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
