Identification of stable reference genes for quantitative gene expression analysis in the duodenum of meat-type ducks

open access: yesFrontiers in Veterinary Science, 2023
Quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) is an important method to detect gene expression at the molecular level. The selection of appropriate housekeeping genes is the key to accurately calculating the expression level of target genes and ...

Temporal, Spatial and Tissue-Specific Expression of a Myogenin-lacZ Transgene Targeted to the Hprt Locus in Mice

open access: yesBioTechniques, 1999
A lacZ transgene, expressed by the myogenin promoter, was introduced into the mouse hypoxanthine phosphoribosyltransferase (Hprt) locus by gene targeting in embryonic stem cells.

Nucleotide precursors prevent folic acid-resistant neural tube defects in the mouse [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Closure of the neural tube during embryogenesis is a crucial step in development of the central nervous system. Failure of this process results in neural tube defects, including spina bifida and anencephaly, which are among the most common birth defects ...

dGTP starvation in Escherichia coli provides new insights into the thymineless-death phenomenon.

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2014
Starvation of cells for the DNA building block dTTP is strikingly lethal (thymineless death, TLD), and this effect is observed in all organisms. The phenomenon, discovered some 60 years ago, is widely used to kill cells in anticancer therapies, but many ...

Targeting purine metabolism in ovarian cancer

open access: yesJournal of Ovarian Research, 2022
Purine, an abundant substrate in organisms, is a critical raw material for cell proliferation and an important factor for immune regulation. The purine de novo pathway and salvage pathway are tightly regulated by multiple enzymes, and dysfunction in ...

DNA-Mediated Transfer of the Adenine Phosphoribosyltransferase Locus into Mammalian Cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 1979
In this report, we demonstrate the feasibility of transforming mouse cells deficient in adenine phosphoribosyltransferase (aprt; AMP:pyrophosphate phosphoribosyltransferase, EC 2.4.2.7) to the aprt+ phenotype by means of DNA-mediated gene transfer ...

Curcumin affects HSP60 folding activity and levels in neuroblastoma cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The fundamental challenge in fighting cancer is the development of protective agents able to interfere with the classical pathways of malignant transformation, such as extracellular matrix remodeling, epithelial\u2013mesenchymal transition and ...

Feeding Stimulates Sphingosine-1-Phosphate Mobilization in Mouse Hypothalamus. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Previous studies have shown that the sphingolipid-derived mediator sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) reduces food intake by activating G protein-coupled S1P receptor-1 (S1PR1) in the hypothalamus.
