Enhancing Clustering Methods by Inserting Relational Information
We consider the problem of clustering elements that have both content and relational information (e.g. Web-pages, scientific papers, etc.). Standard clustering methods use content information only, while graph clustering methods are usually based on the graph structure. Relatively recently, researchers have proposed to combine both types of information. In this paper we propose a simple, yet hi...
متن کاملtargeting human telomerase reverse transcriptase by a simple sirna expression cassette in hepg2 cells
background human telomerase reverse transcriptase (htert) has become an ideal target for development of anticancer therapy. small interfering rnas (sirnas) are very powerful reagents for gene silencing and show promise for cancer gene therapy. however, only a small number of sirnas have been demonstrated to be effective. for gene therapy targeting htert, it is essential to develop a robust syst...
متن کاملEfficient Construction of an Inverted Minimal H1 Promoter Driven siRNA Expression Cassette: Facilitation of Promoter and siRNA Sequence Exchange
BACKGROUND RNA interference (RNAi), mediated by small interfering RNA (siRNA), is an effective method used to silence gene expression at the post-transcriptional level. Upon introduction into target cells, siRNAs incorporate into the RNA-induced silencing complex (RISC). The antisense strand of the siRNA duplex then "guides" the RISC to the homologous mRNA, leading to target degradation and gen...
متن کاملsiRNA and RNAi optimization.
The discovery and examination of the posttranscriptional gene regulatory mechanism known as RNA interference (RNAi) contributed to the identification of small interfering RNA (siRNA) and the comprehension of its enormous potential for clinical purposes. Theoretically, the ability of specific target gene downregulation makes the RNAi pathway an appealing solution for several diseases. Despite nu...
متن کاملInhibition of hepatocyte nuclear factor 4 transcriptional activity by the nuclear factor κB pathway
HNF-4 (hepatocyte nuclear factor 4) is a key regulator of liverspecific gene expression in mammals. We have shown previously that the activity of the human APOC3 (apolipoprotein C-III) promoter is positively regulated by the anti-inflammatory cytokine TGFβ (transforming growth factor β) and its effectors Smad3 (similar to mothers against decapentaplegic 3) and Smad4 proteins via physical and fu...
