p53 directly represses human LINE1 transposons. Published: October, 2020 Abstract:
p53 is a potent tumor suppressor and commonly mutated in human cancers. Recently, we demonstrated that p53 genes act to restrict retrotransposons in germline tissues of flies and fish but whether this activity is conserved in somatic human cells i... Read more » Tags Antibody
Between-Generation Phenotypic and Epigenetic Stability in a Clonal Snail. Published: September, 2020 Abstract:
Epigenetic variation might play an important role in generating adaptive phenotypes by underpinning within-generation developmental plasticity, persistent parental effects of the environment (e.g., transgenerational plasticity), or heritable epige... Read more » Tags Antibody
OxLDL-mediated immunologic memory in endothelial cells. Published: July, 2020 Abstract:
Trained innate immunity describes the metabolic reprogramming and long-term proinflammatory activation of innate immune cells in response to different pathogen or damage associated molecular patterns, such as oxidized low-density lipoprotein (oxLD... Read more » Tags Antibody
The CDK4/6-EZH2 pathway is a potential therapeutic target for psoriasis. Published: July, 2020 Abstract:
Psoriasis is a frequent inflammatory skin disease characterized by keratinocyte hyperproliferation and a disease-related infiltration of immune cells. Here, we identified a novel pro-inflammatory signaling pathway driven by the cyclin-dependent ki... Read more » Tags Antibody
MeCP2 regulates gene expression through recognition of H3K27me3. Published: July, 2020 Abstract:
MeCP2 plays a multifaceted role in gene expression regulation and chromatin organization. Interaction between MeCP2 and methylated DNA in the regulation of gene expression is well established. However, the widespread distribution of MeCP2 sug... Read more » Tags Antibody
Premature termination codons in the gene cause reduced local mRNA synthesis. Published: July, 2020 Abstract:
Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is caused by mutations in the gene leading to the presence of premature termination codons (PTC). Previous transcriptional studies have shown reduced DMD transcript levels in DMD patient and animal model muscles w... Read more » Tags Antibody
Identification of Novel Molecular Markers of Human Th17 Cells. Published: July, 2020 Abstract:
Th17 cells are important players in host defense against pathogens such as , , and . Th17 cell-mediated inflammation, under certain conditions in which balance in the immune system is disrupted, is the underlying pathogenic mechanism of certain au... Read more » Tags Antibody
