Synaptic Vesicle Protein 2 (SV2) Isoforms
New molecular markers of cancer had emerged with novel applications in cancer prevention and therapeutics, including for breast cancer of unknown causes, which has a high impact on the health of women worldwide. The purpose of this research was to determine protein and mRNA expression of synaptic vesicle 2 (SV2) isoforms A, B and C in breast cancer ...

Functional Study of Carboxylesterase 1 Protein Isoforms. [PDF]
Abstract Carboxylesterase 1 (CES1) is a primary human hepatic hydrolase involved in hydrolytic biotransformation of numerous medications. Considerable interindividual variability in CES1 expression and activity has been consistently reported. Four isoforms of the CES1 protein are produced by alternative splicing (AS).

5-lipoxygenase mRNA and protein isoforms.
Abstract5‐Lipoxygenase (5‐LO) catalyses the two initial steps in the biosynthesis of leukotrienes, a group of inflammatory lipid mediators derived from arachidonic acid. An increased level of leukotrienes is associated with chronic inflammatory diseases such as asthma or atherosclerosis.

A novel protein isoform of the RON tyrosine kinase receptor transforms human pancreatic duct epithelial cells. [PDF]
The MST1R gene is overexpressed in pancreatic cancer producing elevated levels of the RON tyrosine kinase receptor protein. While mutations in MST1R are rare, alternative splice variants have been previously reported in epithelial cancers.

Human naive CD8 T cells down-regulate expression of the WNT pathway transcription factors lymphoid enhancer binding factor 1 and transcription factor 7 (T cell factor-1) following antigen encounter in vitro and in vivo [PDF]
The transcription factors lymphoid enhancer binding factor 1 (LEF1) and transcription factor 7 (TCF7) (T cell factor-1 (TCF-1)) are downstream effectors of the WNT signaling pathway, which is a critical regulator of T cell development in the thymus.
