Genistein Induces a Protective Immunomodulatory Effect in a Mouse Model of Cervical Cancer
Background: Genistein (GEN), a naturally occurring flavonoid present in soy bean, has attracted scientific interest for its possible benefits in cancer. Objective: The potential immunomodulatory effects of genistein on the immune system and against TC-1 tumor cell line were evaluated in adult female C57BL/6 mice. Methods: Mice were treated with GEN 10 days before to 10 days after the tumor indu...
متن کاملAdenovirus-mediated retinoblastoma 94 gene transfer induces human pancreatic tumor regression in a mouse xenograft model.
PURPOSE Gene transfer of a truncated variant of the retinoblastoma (RB) gene encoding a M(r) 94000 protein that lacks the NH(2)-terminal 112 amino acid residues, termed RB94, has been shown to inhibit proliferation of several human tumor cell types. We have assessed its therapeutic effectiveness on pancreatic cancer, one of the most aggressive and therapy-resistant types of cancer. For this pur...
متن کاملTumorigenicity of Esophageal Cancer Stem Cells (ECSCs) in nude mouse xenograft model
Background and objectives: Modeling cancer in vivo is a very important tool to investigate cancer pathogenesis and molecular mechanisms involved in cancer progression. Laboratory mice are the most common animal used for rebuilding human cancer in vivo. Cancer stem cells (CSCs) are the main reason of failure in cancer therapy because of tumor relapse and metastasis. Isolation of cancer stem cell...
متن کاملFunctional cis-regulatory modules encoded by mouse-specific endogenous retrovirus
Cis-regulatory modules contain multiple transcription factor (TF)-binding sites and integrate the effects of each TF to control gene expression in specific cellular contexts. Transposable elements (TEs) are uniquely equipped to deposit their regulatory sequences across a genome, which could also contain cis-regulatory modules that coordinate the control of multiple genes with the same regulator...
متن کاملAssignment of Endogenous Retrovirus Integration Sites Using a Mixture Model
Structural variation occurs in the genomes of individuals because of the different positions occupied by repetitive genome elements like endogenous retroviruses, or ERVs. The presence or absence of ERVs can be determined by identifying the junction with the host genome using high-throughput sequence technology and a clustering algorithm. The resulting data give the number of sequence reads assi...
