Using gene-targeting methods, a progesterone receptor Cre knockin (PR-Cre) mouse was generated in which recombinase inserted into exon 1 of the PR gene. The insertion positions gene downstream (and under specific control) endogenous promoter. As for heterozygotes knockout (PRKO) mutation, mice heterozygous are phenotypically indistinguishable from wildtype. Crossing PR-Cre with ROSA26R reporter revealed that excision activity is restricted to cells express progesterone-responsive tissues...
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is typically characterized by a polycystic ovarian morphology, hyperandrogenism, ovulatory dysfunction, and infertility. Furthermore, PCOS patients undergoing stimulation have more oocytes; however, the poor quality of oocytes leads to lower fertilization implantation rates, decreased pregnancy increased miscarriage rates. The complex molecular mechanisms underlying remain be elucidated. We obtained matched cumulus cells (CCs) from patients, compared them...
Although platinum compounds are the first-line treatment for ovarian cancer, majority of patients relapse and develop resistance to treatment. However, mechanism underlying is unclear. The goal our study decipher by which a metabolic kinase, diacylglycerol kinase alpha (DGKA), confers in cancer.Metabolic RNAi synthetic lethal screening was used identify cisplatin driver cancer. DGKA variants were demonstrate need activity resistance. Phospho-proteomic genomic screens performed downstream...
The M2 splice isoform of pyruvate kinase (PKM2) is a key enzyme for generating and ATP in the glycolytic pathway, whereas role PKM2 tumorigenesis remains subject debate. In our study, we found highly expressed melanoma patients malignance positively correlated with high activity capability cells. Suppression expression by knocking down markedly attenuated malignant phenotype both vitro vivo, restoration depleted cells could rescue proliferation, invasion metastasis. With data indicating as...
In this paper, a Beddington–DeAngelis prey–predator model with fear effect, refuge and harvesting is investigated. First, the positivity of solutions boundedness system are given. Then, existence local stability equilibria such obtained. Next, not only different codimension-one bifurcations, as saddle-node bifurcation, transcritical bifurcation Hopf take place, but also Bogdanov–Takens codimension-two occurs predicted by center manifold theorem theory. Finally, some numerical simulations...
O-linked N-acetylglucosamine (O-GlcNAc) glycosylation, a prevalent protein post-translational modification (PTM) that occurs intracellularly, has been shown to crosstalk with phosphorylation and ubiquitination. However, it is unclear whether interplays other PTMs. Here we studied its relationship ADP-ribosylation, which involves decorating target proteins the ADP-ribose moiety. We discovered poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation "eraser", glycohydrolase (PARG), O-GlcNAcylated at Ser26, in close proximity...
Some patients with Plasmodium falciparum infections develop cerebral malaria, acute respiratory distress, and shock ultimately die even though drug therapy has eliminated the parasite from blood, suggesting that a systemic inflammatory response contributes to malarial pathogenesis. berghei-infected mice are well-recognized model of severe malaria (experimental [ESM]), infected exhibit response. Because platelets proposed contribute ESM other responses, we determined whether platelet...
In this article, a delayed phytoplankton-zooplankton system with Allee effect and linear harvesting is proposed, where phytoplankton species protects themselves from zooplankton by producing toxin taking shelter. First, the existence stability of possible equilibria are explored. Next, Hopf bifurcation investigated when has no time delay. What's more, limit cycle demonstrated calculating first Lyapunov number. Then, condition that occurs obtained delay describing maturation period as...
It is well known that scrapie a fatal, neurodegenerative disease in sheep and goat, which belongs to the group of transmissible spongiform encephalopathies (TSEs) or prion diseases. has been confirmed polymorphisms protein gene (PRNP) at codons 136, 154, 171 have strong relationship with sheep. In present study, nine PRNP other six loci (at 101, 112, 127, 137, 138, 152) were detected 180 Chinese Hu All alleles identified resulted three new genotypes. The frequencies predominant 85% (A136),...
TRAF6, a well-known adapter molecule, plays pivotal role in TLR/IL-1R associated signaling pathway. Although TRAF6 has been shown to have oncogenic activity various malignant tumors, the details remain unclear. In this study, we demonstrated that facilitates Ras (G12V) and EGF-induced cellular transformation through EGFR. Silencing of expression significantly downregulated AP-1 activity, as well MMP-2,9 after EGF stimulation. Furthermore, found an essential cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma...
Abstract We performed a molecular epidemiologic survey of mutations associated with drug-resistance genes in Plasmodium falciparum northeastern Myanmar. In this region, 3 highly mutated haplotypes and 1 decreased quinine susceptibility were prevalent, which suggests that parasites may be resistant to multiple commonly used antimalarial drugs.
Plasmodium berghei-infected mice, a well-recognized model of experimental cerebral malaria (ECM), exhibit many the hallmarks systemic inflammatory response, with organ damage in brain, lung, and kidneys. Identification molecules mediating pathogenesis such as leukocyte adhesion, may lead to new therapies. Indeed, mice lacking cell adhesion molecule P-selectin were significantly (P = 0.005) protected from death due P. berghei compared C57BL/6 controls despite similar parasitemia 0.6) being...

Introduction: A key regulator of collective cell migration is prostaglandin (PG) signaling. However, it remains largely unclear whether PGs act within the migratory cells or their microenvironment to promote migration. Here we use Drosophila border as a model uncover cell-specific roles two in The undergo and invasive between nurse cells; thus, are substrate for cells. Prior work found PG signaling required on-time cluster cohesion. Methods: Confocal microscopy quantitative image analyses...
