Emerging insights into the biology of metastasis: A review article
Metastasis means the dissemination of the cancer cells from one organ to another which is not directly connected to the primary site. Metastasis has a crucial role in the prognosis of cancer patients. A few theories, different types of cell and several molecular pathways have been proposed to explain the mechanism of metastasis. In this work, the related articles in the limited period of time, ...
متن کاملRemodeling of glycans using glycosyltransferase genes.
Remodeling of glycans on the cell surface is an essential technique to analyze cellular function of lectin-glycan ligand interaction. Here we describe the methods to identify the responsible enzyme (glycosyltransferase) regulating the expression of the glycan of interest and to modulate the glycan expression by overexpressing the glycosyltransferase gene. For the identification of the responsib...
متن کاملStructural insights into the ene-reductase synthesis of profens.
Reduction of double bonds of α,β-unsaturated carboxylic acids and esters by ene-reductases remains challenging and it typically requires activation by a second electron-withdrawing moiety, such as a halide or second carboxylate group. We showed that profen precursors, 2-arylpropenoic acids and their esters, were efficiently reduced by Old Yellow Enzymes (OYEs). The XenA and GYE enzymes showed a...
متن کاملEmerging insights into peripartum cardiomyopathy.
Peripartum cardiomyopathy (PPCM) is relatively common in the Hospital Albert Schweitzer (HAS) district of Haiti. This investigation was carried out to expand epidemiologic data aiming at identifying risk factors for PPCM in this population. The HAS District PPCM Registry with 74 PPCM patients, enrolled from 1 February 2000 to 1 September 2002, served to identify the PPCM patients involved in th...
متن کاملStructural insights into WHAMM-mediated cytoskeletal coordination during membrane remodeling
The microtubule (MT) and actin cytoskeletons drive many essential cellular processes, yet fairly little is known about how their functions are coordinated. One factor that mediates important cross talk between these two systems is WHAMM, a Golgi-associated protein that utilizes MT binding and actin nucleation activities to promote membrane tubulation during intracellular transport. Using cryoel...
