Diabetes‐induced vascular calcification is associated with low pyrophosphate and its oral supplementation prevents calcification in diabetic mice

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Induction of diabetes in three different mouse strains uniformly resulted in an increase in TNAP activity and a reduction in pyrophosphate (PPi) in the circulation. Inhibition of TNAP restored plasma PPi. Diabetes‐induced calcification in the media layer of the aorta was detected only in the Abcc6−/− strain, which is predisposed to ectopic ...

Regulated Gene Expression in Gene Therapy

Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2001
Abstract: The original model of gene therapy, that of efficient delivery, durable transfer, and stable expression of transgenes to correct a gene defect underlying an inherited disease, is limited in light of improved understanding of the processes involved.

Regulation of gene expression by hypoxia

Biochemical Journal, 2008
Hypoxia induces profound changes in the cellular gene expression profile. The discovery of a major transcription factor family activated by hypoxia, HIF (hypoxia-inducible factor), and the factors that contribute to HIF regulation have greatly enhanced our knowledge of the molecular aspects of the hypoxic response.

Regulation of gene expression

British Medical Bulletin, 1991
A fundamental tenet of biology is that the phenotype of an organism is ultimately determined by its complement of genes. In multicellular organisms, it is the regulated pattern of expression of genes which determines the proliferation and differentiation of individual cell lineages and hence establishes the adult phenotype.

Regulation of Gene Expression

New England Journal of Medicine, 1994
Genetics is a language with rules of composition that give the tissues of the body their special traits. These rules govern the activation of particular subgroups of genes, which determine not only the unique characteristics of a cell type but also whether it remains quiescent, divides, or dies. The timing of gene activation is very important. If genes

Vitamin A and regulation of gene expression

Current Opinion in Clinical Nutrition and Metabolic Care, 1998
The biologically active form of vitamin A, retinoic acid, and its synthetic analogs exhibit potent anti-proliferative normalization of differentiation and anti-inflammatory activities, which appear to account for their therapeutic effects in hyperproliferative and inflammatory diseases, such as acne, psoriasis, photoaging and neoplasias.

Regulation of Cytokine Gene Expression

Annual Review of Immunology, 1988
Following the isolation and characterization of many cytokine genes, we began to understand the mechanisms regulating cytokine gene expression. Needless to say, understanding the mechanisms by which induction of gene expression occurs in a transient, cell type-specific manner in response to extracellular inducers is a central issue in eukaryotic ...

Glucose regulation of gene expression

Current Opinion in Clinical Nutrition and Metabolic Care, 1998
Regulation of gene expression by nutrients in mammals is an important mechanism allowing them to adapt to the nutritional environment. In-vivo and in-vitro experiments have demonstrated that the transcription of genes coding for lipogenic and glycolytic enzymes in liver and/or adipose tissue is upregulated by glucose.

Androgen-Regulated Gene Expression

Annual Review of Physiology, 1989
While a great deal of knowledge on the mechanisms of steroid hormone regulated gene expression now exists, specific information relating to androgens is lacking. A number of experimental systems have been developed and show promise as models for molecular studies of androgen regulation.
