简介:MicroRNAs(miRNAs)内长的、小、非编码的RNA,它能够在post-transcriptional的silencing基因表示铺平。在这研究,我们报导miR-205是显著地在与匹配的正常的胸织物相比的胸肿瘤的underexpressed。同样,包括MCF-7和MDA-MB-231,乳癌房间行比非恶意的MCF-10A房间表示低级miR-205。兴趣,miR-205的宫外的表示显著地禁止房间增长和抛锚独立人士生长,以及房间侵略。而且,miR-205被显示在一个动物模型压制肺转移。最后,西方的污点与试金表明的酶记者结合了那ErbB3和脉管的endothelial生长因素A(VEGF--一)是为miR-205的直接目标,并且这miR-205-mediated抑制通过和在ErbB3和VEGF的3鈥?untranslated区域(3鈥?UTR)的通常认为的miR-205绑定地点的直接相互作用是可能的--一。一起,这些结果建议miR-205是在乳癌的肿瘤suppressor。
简介:死亡联系域的蛋白质Daxx施加包括调停的许多报导功能经由激活c6月N终端从FasL发信号到apoptosisapoptosis的kinase(JNK),正式就职和抑制,和染色质改变的规定。它原来从酵母被克隆用船边交货对相似物体之连续感觉而形成心像口的细胞内部的尾巴的二混血儿的屏幕诱饵。而许多起始的报告仍然保持争论,Daxx在一系列压力信号包括UVirradiation,过氧化氢治疗和TGF-β治疗触发的apoptosis的规定起重要作用,是清楚的。在这评论,我们在Axinbeing上集中连接Daxx到p53的一个拴住的因素。
简介:CCAAT/enhancer有约束力的蛋白质α(C/EBPα)是transcriptional禁止细胞增殖的规章的因素,和其他的翻译开始生产二多肽,C/EBPαp30并且C/EBPαp42。由表示介绍,C/EBPαp30specifically禁止了基因的一个唯一的集合,这被揭示,包括MPP11,p84N5和SMYD2,它没被C/EBPαp影响42在两根QSG-7701hepatocyte房间线和QGY-7703hepatoma,cells.Semi量的RT-PCR分析独立地证实了这些结果。Chromatinimmunoprecipitation试金显示出30比C/EBPαp更强烈绑了在这些基因的倡导者的那C/EBPαp42。在C/EBPα是调整的down的临床的hepatoma在样品,所有三基因明确地由30在上面的C/EBPαp禁止了调整。然而,MPP11,p84N5和SMYD2genes的压抑可能直接不涉及C/EBPαp30-mediated生长抑制。我们的数据建议30调整的那C/EBPαp目标基因的一个唯一的集合并且多于C/EBPαp的dominant-negativeregulator42。
简介:MicroRNAs是否定地在post-transcriptional水平调制基因表示的短规章的RNA,并且深深地涉及癌症的几种类型的致病。调查特定的miRNAs和他们的目标基因是否参予喉的癌的分子的致病,oligonucleotidemicroarrays被用来与正常纸巾相比在喉的癌纸巾估计microRNAs和mRNAs的微分表示侧面。oncogenicmiRNA,microRNA-21(miR-21),被发现是在喉的癌纸巾的upregulated。由特定的antisenseoligonucleotides的miR-21击倒而miR-21的overexpression提高了细胞的生长活动,由殖民地形成试金检测了,禁止了HEp-2细胞的增长潜力。miR-21抑制引起的房间数字减小由于G1-S阶段转变的控制的损失,而不是apoptosis的显著增加。随后,miR-21的新目标基因,BTG2,被发现是在喉的癌纸巾的downregulated。BTG2被知道充当一个平底锅房间周期管理者和肿瘤suppressor。这些调查结果显示miR-21的那异常表情可以由维持BTG2的底层贡献喉的癌的恶意的显型。oncogenicmiR-21和它的目标基因的鉴定,BTG2,为癌症诊断和治疗在喉的癌是潜在地珍贵的。
简介:在Saccharomycescerevisiae,必要基因CDC13编码telomeric遗传上并且身体上与Stn1p和Ten1p交往的搁浅单人赛的DNA有约束力的蛋白质,并且为telomere结束保护和telomere长度控制被要求。Ten1由参予telomere长度规定和染色体结束保护的分子的机制留下逃犯。在这个工作,我们用净化的recombinantCdc13p和Ten1p在胶化过滤分析观察了Cdc13p和Ten1p的一个弱相互作用。Ten1p本身展出一项弱DNA有约束力的活动,但是提高telomericTG1鈥吗?Cdc13p的DNA有约束力的能力。Cdc13p是有Ten1p的co-immunoprecipitated。在变异的ten1-55或ten1-66房间,在Ten1p和Cdc13p之间的损害相互作用与telomericDNA导致长得多的telomeres,以及Cdc13p的一个减少的协会。一致地,Ten1-55和Ten1-66异种蛋白质没能刺激telomeric在vitro的Cdc13p的DNA有约束力的活动。这些结果建议Ten1p提高telomericCdc13p到的DNA有约束力的活动否定地调整telomere长度。
