Abstract Background Cancer is an outcome of various disrupted or dysregulated metabolic processes like apoptosis, growth, and self‐cell transformation. Human anatomy harbors trillions of microbes, and these microbes actively influence all kinds of human metabolic activities, including the human immune response.

Regulation of Polyomavirus Transcription by Viral and Cellular Factors
Polyomavirus infection is widespread in the human population. This family of viruses normally maintains latent infection within the host cell but can cause a range of human pathologies, especially in immunocompromised individuals.

Understanding the age‐associated incidence of natural CNS pathology in an animal model is critical to assess the safety of potential treatments for neurodegenerative disorders. We describe background and age‐related neuropathology in the St. Kitts African green monkey, a recognized translational model for neurodegenerative research, additionally ...

Strategies for immortalisation of amnion‐derived mesenchymal and epithelial cells
Abstract Mesenchymal (human amniotic mesenchymal stem cell [HAMSC]) and epithelial cells (human amnion epithelial cell [HAEC]) derived from human amniotic membranes possess characteristics of pluripotency. However, the pluripotency of HAMSC and HAEC are sustained only for a finite period.

Abstract Yeast‐based interaction assays to determine protein‐protein and protein‐nucleic acid interactions commonly rely on the reconstitution of chimeric transcription factors that activate the expression of target reporter genes. The enzyme β‐galactosidase (β‐gal), coded by the LacZ gene of Escherichia coli, is a widely used reporter in yeast systems,

The Dawn of Plant Molecular Biology: How Three Key Methodologies Paved the Way
Abstract The adoption of Arabidopsis thaliana in the 1980s as a universal plant model finally enabled researchers to adopt and take full advantage of the molecular biology tools and methods developed in the bacterial and animal fields since the early 1970s.

Cell transformation of established human cell line induced by SV-40 DNA [PDF]
In the present experiment, it has been noted that clonizing epithelial-like cells of the intestine 407 were more susceptible to SV-40 virus than normal fibroblasts in primary human cell cultures.

Abstract Human artificial chromosomes (HACs) are gene delivery vectors that have been used for decades for gene functional studies. HACs have several advantages over viral‐based gene transfer systems, including stable episomal maintenance in a single copy in the cell and the ability to carry up to megabase‐sized genomic DNA segments. We have previously

Oncogenic properties of nucleic acid derived from SV-40 virus [PDF]
The present report describes the findings on the infectivity of DNA partially purified from SV-40 which was propagated in the monkey kidney cells (BSC-1) in vitro and the importance of nucleic acids as oncogenic factors, particularly the induction of ...
