Clinical significance and expression of PUMA, MCL-1, and p53 in human renal cell carcinoma and para-carcinoma tissues

We investigated the expression level of p53 upregulated modulator of apoptosis (PUMA), myeloid cell leukemia-I (MCL-1), and p53 in renal cell carcinoma (RCC) and para-carcinoma tissues, as well as their clinical significance. The expression levels of PUMA, MCL-1, and p53 in RCC and para-carcinoma tissues were measured using immunohistochemical and quantitative real-.. Read More»

Identifying differentially expressed genes and pathways in two types of non-small cell lung cancer: adenocarcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma

    J. Liu, X.Y. Yang and W.J. Shi

Non-small cell lung carcinoma, NSCLC, accounts for 80-85% of lung cancers. NSCLC can be mainly divided into two types: adenocarcinoma (ADC) and squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). The purpose of our study was to identify and differentiate the pathogenesis of ADC and SCC at the molecular level. The gene expression profiles of ADC and SCC were downloaded from Gene Expressi..

Resistance to lipopolysaccharide-induced endotoxic shock in heterozygous Zfp191 gene-knockout mice

    R.L. Sun, H.Y. Wang, X.Y. Yang, Z.J. Sheng, L.M. Li, L. Wang, Z.G. Wang and J. Fei

Zinc finger protein 191, ZNF24 and Zfp191 in both humans and mice belong to the SCAN domain subfamily of Krüppel-like zinc finger transcription factors. Previous studies have suggested that Zfp191 is a pleiotropic factor involved in embryonic development, hematopoiesis and tumorigenesis. However, little is known about its target genes or its role in other physi.. Read More»

Differential expression of COX-2 in osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis

    H.W. Fan, G.Y. Liu, C.F. Zhao, X.F. Li and X.Y. Yang

In this study, we investigated the differential expression profiles of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) mRNA and proteins in osteoarthritis (OA) and rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients to elucidate the role of COX-2 expression in the pathogenesis and development of these diseases and to provide novel drug targets for treating arthritis. A total of 60 patients who received arthroscopic surgeries for trea.. Read More»

A study on natural recovery of tassel fertilization and doubling method in maize haploids

    L. Jiang, X.Y. Yang, X.Y. Li, P.K. Deng, G.X. Jing, X.Q. Wang,Z. Xing, R.G. Zhao

Doubling method is the technical barriers in maize haploid breeding. It was very important to establish the independent intellectual property rights for doubling method. In this experiment, the maize haploid inducer, TG15, was used for producing maternal haploids. Also, haploids were obtained from two kinds of maternal genotypes involved in the experiment, including.. Read More»

Expression of claudin-1 and its relationship with lymphatic microvessel generation in hypopharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma

    W.J. Li1,, Z.L. Zhang, X.M. Yu, X.L. Cai, X.L. Pan and X.Y. Yang

We investigated the relationship between claudin-1 and micro-lymphatic vessel density (MLVD) by detecting claudin-1 and protein D2-40 expression in cancer tissue specimens obtained from 97 patients with hypopharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (HSCC). We also explored the correlation between the expression of these proteins and clinical tumor stage, pathological gradi.. Read More»

Development of microsatellite markers in the tetraploid fern Ceratopteris thalictroides (Parkeriaceae) using RAD tag sequencing

    X.Y. Yang1*, Z.C. Long2*, A.W. Gichira2, Y.H. Guo1, Q.F. Wang2 and J.M. Chen2

To understand the genetic variability of the tetraploid fern Ceratopteris thalictroides (Parkeriaceae), we described 30 polymorphic microsatellite markers obtained using the restriction site-associated DNA (RAD) tag sequencing technique. A total of 26 individuals were genotyped for each marker. The number of alleles per locus ranged from 4 to 10, and the expected heterozygosity and the Shannon-.. Read More»

Intracranial aneurysm risk factor genes:relationship with intracranial aneurysm risk in a Chinese Han population

    L.T. Zhang, F.J. Wei, Y. Zhao, Z. Zhang, W.T. Dong, Z.N. Jin, F. Gao, N.N. Gao, X.W. Cai, N.X. Li, W. Wei, F.S. Xiao, S.Y. Yue, J.N. Zhang, S.Y. Yang, W.D. Li and X.Y. Yang

Few studies have examined the genes related to risk factors that may contribute to intracranial aneurysms (IAs). This study in Chinese patients aimed to explore the relationship between IA and 28 gene loci, proven to be associated with risk factors for IA. We recruited 119 patients with aneurysms and 257 controls. Single factor and logistic regression models were used to analyze the association.. Read More»
