A cell-based bioluminescence assay reveals dose-dependent and contextual repression of AP-1-driven gene expression by BACH2

Bach2 represses the AP-1-driven induction of interleukin-2 gene transcription in CD4+ T cells

The transcription repressor Bach2 has been proposed as a regulator of T cell quiescence, but the underlying mechanism is not fully understood. Given the importance of interleukin-2 in T cell activation, we investigated whether Bach2 is a component of the network of factors that regulates interleukin-2 expression. In primary and transformed CD4＋ T cells, Bach2 overexpression counteracted T cell ...

Repression of AP-1 Function: A Mechanism

Repression of AP-1-stimulated transcription by c-Ets-1.

The transcriptional activities of c-Ets-1 and v-Ets and their functional interaction with the AP-1 factor c-Jun were investigated. Several recombinant Ets proteins were produced and purified either from bacteria or from insect cells. Plasmid DNAs that contained the polyoma virus enhancer Ets/AP-1 element were used as templates for in vitro transcription assays in the presence of HeLa nuclear ex...

The Epigenetic Regulation of Blinatumomab Gene Expression: Tumor Cell-dependent T cell Response against Lymphoma Cells and Cytotoxic Activity

Conventional treatment for cancer such as surgical resection and chemotherapy can cause damage in cases with advanced cancers. Moreover, the identification of tumor-specific targets has great importance in T-cell therapies. For decades, T cell activity has been stimulated to improve anti-tumor activity. Bispecific antibodies have attracted strong interest from pharmaceutical companies, for thei...

construction and validation of a computerized adaptive translation test (a receptive based study)

آزمون انطباقی رایانه ای (cat) روشی نوین برای سنجش سطح علمی دانش آموزان می باشد. در حقیقت آزمون های رایانه ای با سرعت بالایی به سمت و سوی جایگزین عملی برای آزمون های کاغذی می روند (کینگزبری، هاوسر، 1993). مقاله حاضر به دنبال آزمون انطباقی رایانه ای برای ترجمه می باشد. بدین منظور دو پرسشنامه مشتمل بر 55 تست ترجمه میان 102 آزمودنی و 10 مدرس زبان انگلیسی پخش گردید. پرسشنامه اول میان 102 دانشجوی س...
