Polymorphisms of KLF3 gene coding region and identification of their functionality for abdominal fat in chickens

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine and Science, 2021
KLF3 is a member of the Kruppel‐like factor (KLF) family of transcription factors, and plays an important role in several biological processes, including adipogenesis, erythropoiesis and B‐cell development.

A matter of time: Using dynamics and theory to uncover mechanisms of transcriptional bursting [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Eukaryotic transcription generally occurs in bursts of activity lasting minutes to hours; however, state-of-the-art measurements have revealed that many of the molecular processes that underlie bursting, such as transcription factor binding to DNA, unfold on timescales of seconds.

MicroRNA-1 Regulates Smooth Muscle Cell Differentiation by Repressing Kruppel-Like Factor 4 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The role of microRNA-1 (miR-1) has been studied in cardiac and skeletal muscle differentiation. However, it remains unexplored in vascular smooth muscle cells (SMCs) differentiation. The aim of this study was to uncover novel targets of and shed light on

Fibulin-5 Regulates Angiopoietin-1/Tie-2 Receptor Signaling in Endothelial Cells. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2016
BACKGROUND:Fibulin-5 is an extracellular matrix glycoprotein that plays critical roles in vasculogenesis and embryonic development. Deletion of Fibulin-5 in mice results in enhanced skin vascularization and upregulation of the angiogenesis factor ...

The Krüppel-like transcription factor 6 gene in sporadic pituitary tumours. [PDF]

open access: yesEndocrine-related cancer, 2003
The oncogenes and/or tumour suppressor genes which may be involved in the transformation process for the vast majority of pituitary tumours remain unknown. There is substantial evidence for derangement of cell cycle control in such tumours, but cell cycle protein mutations identified in other human malignancies are restricted to only a very small ...

Genome-wide discovery of modulators of transcriptional interactions in human B lymphocytes [PDF]

open access: yesRECOMB'06 Proceedings, LNCS 3909, Springer, 2006, 2005
Transcriptional interactions in a cell are modulated by a variety of mechanisms that prevent their representation as pure pairwise interactions between a transcription factor and its target(s). These include, among others, transcription factor activation by phosphorylation and acetylation, formation of active complexes with one or more co-factors, and ...

Botanical Antcin K Alleviates High-Fat Damage in Palm Acid Oil-Treated Vascular Endothelial Cells and Macrophages

open access: yesPlants, 2022
Lipid metabolism disorder is the most critical risk factor for atherosclerosis, and the process involves lipid deposition in the arterial intima. In Taiwan, antcin K, an active triterpenoid from the fruiting bodies of Antrodia camphorata, has been ...

Patterns of subnet usage reveal distinct scales of regulation in the transcriptional regulatory network of Escherichia coli [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The set of regulatory interactions between genes, mediated by transcription factors, forms a species' transcriptional regulatory network (TRN). By comparing this network with measured gene expression data one can identify functional properties of the TRN and gain general insight into transcriptional control.

The lower bound on the precision of transcriptional regulation [PDF]

open access: yesPhys. Rev. E 90 (2014) 032708, 2014
The diffusive arrival of transcription factors at the promoter sites on the DNA sets a lower bound on how accurately a cell can regulate its protein levels. Using results from the literature on diffusion-influenced reactions, we derive an analytical expression for the lower bound on the precision of transcriptional regulation.

Direct Conversion of Human Endothelial Cells Into Liver Cancer‐Forming Cells Using Nonintegrative Episomal Vectors

open access: yesHepatology Communications, 2022
Liver cancer is an aggressive cancer associated with a poor prognosis. Development of therapeutic strategies for liver cancer requires fundamental research using suitable experimental models. Recent progress in direct reprogramming technology has enabled
