Versican splice variant messenger RNA expression in normal human Achilles tendon and tendinopathies [PDF]
Versican is the principal large proteoglycan expressed in mid-tendon, but its role in tendon pathology is unknown. Our objective was to define the expression of versican isoform splice variant messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) in normal Achilles tendons,

The Expressed MicroRNA—mRNA Interactions of Toxoplasma gondii [PDF]
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are involved in post-transcriptional modulation of gene expression and thereby have a large influence on the resulting phenotype. We have previously shown that miRNAs may be involved in the communication between Toxoplasma gondii and its hosts and further confirmed a number of proposed specific miRNAs.

THE IMPACT OF GRAPHENE OXIDE NANOPARTICLES ON THE EXPRESSION OF ENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM STRESS-DEPENDENT GENES IS MORE PRONOUNCED IN NORMAL HUMAN ASTROCYTES THAN GLIOBLASTOMA CELLS [PDF]
Aim. The purpose of the study was to investigate the impact of graphene oxide nanoparticles on the expression of a subset of ER stress-dependent genes in normal human astrocytes in comparison with glioblastoma cells depending on the knockdown of ERN1.

IL-1α and TNF-α Down-Regulate CRH Receptor-2 mRNA Expression in the Mouse Heart [PDF]
Two receptors (CRH receptor type 1 and CRH receptor type 2) have been identified for the stress-induced neuropeptide, CRH and related peptides, urocortin, and urocortin II.

The Regulation of Aggrecanase ADAMTS-4 Expression in Human Achilles Tendon and tendon-Derived Cells [PDF]
Several members of the ADAMTS (A Disintegrin And Metalloproteinase with ThromboSpondin motifs) family have been identified as aggrecanases, whose substrates include versican, the principal large proteoglycan in the tendon extracellular matrix.

Erythropoietin mRNA expression in pig embryos
To address whether altered erythropoietin (EPO) synthesis might be involved in prenatal pig mortality, studies were conducted to measure porcine embryonic EPO mRNA expression during early gestation (days 24-40). Three pig models differing in embryonic survival from days 24-40 were investigated: intact white crossbred gilts (INT), white crossbred gilts ...

Expression of plasma prekallikrein mRNA in human nonhepatic tissues and cell lineages suggests special local functions of the enzyme [PDF]
At present it is generally accepted that plasma prekallikrein (PPK) is synthesized in the liver and secreted into the bloodstream. Surprisingly, it has recently been shown that PPK mRNA is present also in RNA from the kidney, adrenal gland and placenta ...
