MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play a key role in regulating cell differentiation. In the present study, we aimed to explore of miR-140-5p odontoblastic differentiation dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs). DPSCs from normal human impacted third molars were isolated and cultured. After overexpression or silencing DPSCs, activity, proliferation, evaluated. The possible target gene was verified by luciferase reporter assay. Using transfection technology, RT-CPR, Western blot confirm regulates through...
Oxidative stress drives protein S-glutathionylation, which regulates the structure and function of target proteins is implicated in pathogenesis many diseases. Glutaredoxin 1 (Grx1), a cytoplasmic deglutathionylating enzyme, maintains reducing environment within cell under various conditions by reversing S-glutathionylation. Grx1 performs wide range antioxidant activities lens prevents protein-thiol mixed disulfide accumulation, protein-protein aggregation, insolubilization, apoptosis...
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the second leading cause of cancer-related mortality in United States. CRC initiated by mutations tumor suppressor gene, adenomatous polyposis coli (APC), or β-catenin gene. These stabilize and constitutively activate Wnt/β-catenin target genes, such as c-Myc cyclin D1, ultimately to cancer. Naturally occurring stilbene derivatives, resveratrol pterostilbene, inhibit Wnt signaling repress cell proliferation but are ineffective at concentrations less than 10 μM. To...
Abstract Previous studies have reported that phosphodiesterase 10A (PDE10) is overexpressed in colon epithelium during early stages of tumorigenesis and essential for cancer cell growth. Here we describe a novel non-COX inhibitory derivative the anti-inflammatory drug, sulindac, with selective PDE10 activity, ADT 061. 061 potently inhibited growth cells expressing high levels PDE10, but not normal colonocytes do express PDE10. The concentration range by which was identical to concentrations...
Though many mutations have been identified to be associated with the occurrence of congenital cataract, pathogenic loci in some affected families are still unknown. Clinical data and genomic DNA were collected from a four-generation Chinese family. Candidate independently verified for cosegregation whole pedigree. Linkage analysis showed that disease-causing mutation was located between 1p36.21 1p36.33. Analysis whole-exome sequencing combined linkage novel variant (g.2451906C>T) at intron 4...
To study the effect of senescence marker protein 30 (SMP30) on proliferation and apoptosis human lens epithelial cell (HLEC) SRA01/04.SMP30 overexpression (OE) knock down (KD) type lines were cultivated by using two groups regucalcin (RGN; SMP30) lentiviral vectors (LV-RGN, LV-RGN-RNAi) respective negative control virus infect SRA01/04 cells. Western blot real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (q-PCR) analysis used to determine RGN efficiency. We use counting kit-8 (CCK8) assay...
Abstract Background: Inactivation of the TGF-β signaling occurs in 50-75% all colorectal cancer cases. Down-regulation Smad4, central mediator signaling, >50% stage III patients. How Smad4 contributes to normal intestinal homeostasis and functions as a tumor suppressor are incompletely understood. We reported that β-catenin mRNA expression is inhibited by BMP-mediated loss results biologically significant amplification Wnt/β-catenin signal. Here, we report on consequences for...
