RAE-1 ligands for the NKG2D receptor are regulated by E2F transcription factors, which control cell cycle entry. [PDF]
The NKG2D stimulatory receptor expressed by natural killer cells and T cell subsets recognizes cell surface ligands that are induced on transformed and infected cells and facilitate immune rejection of tumor cells.

Effect of Larval Nutrition on Maternal mRNA Contribution to the Drosophila Egg. [PDF]
Embryonic development begins under the control of maternal gene products, mRNAs and proteins that the mother deposits into the egg; the zygotic genome is activated some time later. Maternal control of early development is conserved across metazoans. Gene

FAST AND COST-EFFECTIVE RNA EXTRACTION FOR BCR-ABL QUANTIFICATION IN ONCO-HEMATOLOGY LABORATORIES
Background: Chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) is a myeloproliferative neoplasm characterized by the presence of a BCR-ABL1 rearrangement; its detection and quantification by real-time quantitative PCR (RQ-PCR) plays a central role in CML diagnosis, therapy ...

Differential in vitro infection of neural cells by astroviruses [PDF]
Encephalitis remains a diagnostic conundrum in humans as over 50% of cases are managed without the identification of an etiology. Astroviruses have been detected from the central nervous system of mammals in association with disease, suggesting that this

Reverse chemical ecology approach for the identification of an oviposition attractant for Culex quinquefasciatus. [PDF]
Pheromones and other semiochemicals play a crucial role in today's integrated pest and vector management strategies. These semiochemicals are typically discovered by bioassay-guided approaches.

In vitro identification and in silico utilization of interspecies sequence similarities using GeneChip(® )technology [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Genomic approaches in large animal models (canine, ovine etc) are challenging due to insufficient genomic information for these species and the lack of availability of corresponding microarray platforms. To address this problem, we speculated

Salmonella produce microRNA-like RNA fragment Sal-1 in the infected cells to facilitate intracellular survival. [PDF]
Salmonella have developed a sophisticated machinery to evade immune clearance and promote survival in the infected cells. Previous studies were mostly focused on either bacteria itself or host cells, the interaction mechanism of host-pathogen awaits ...
