Aldehyde dehydrogenase and ethanol preference in mice.
The aldehyde dehydrogenases from livers of the inbred mouse strains C57BL/6J, DBA/ZJ, and the F1 generation of the cross between these strains (C57BL/6J X DBA/2 J) have been purified over 60-fold. Alcohol dehydrogenase activity is not present in the purified enzyme preparation. Enzyme preparations from both strains and from the F1 cross specifically require NAD but can oxidize a variety of alde...
متن کاملInvolvement of aldehyde dehydrogenase 1A2 in the regulation of cancer stem cell properties in neuroblastoma.
Despite the introduction of 13-cis-retinoic acid (13-cis-RA) into the current chemotherapy, more than half of high-risk neuroblastoma patients have experienced tumor relapses driven by chemoresistant cancer stem cells (CSCs) that can be isolated by their ability to grow as spheres. Although aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) has been used to characterize CSCs in certain cancers, ALDH remains elusive...
متن کاملCharacterization of the rat Class 3 aldehyde dehydrogenase gene promoter.
The Class 3 aldehyde dehydrogenase gene (ALDH-3) is differentially expressed. Expression is either constitutive or xenobiotic inducible via an aromatic hydrocarbon (Ah) receptor-mediated pathway, depending upon the tissue. A series of studies were performed to examine the regulation of rat ALDH-3 basal expression. DNase I footprint analysis identified four DNA regions within the proximal 1 kb o...
متن کاملStudy of the role of siRNA mediated promoter methylation in DNMT3B knockdown and alteration of promoter methylation of CDH1, GSTP1 genes in MDA-MB -453 cell line
Promoter methylation is one of the main epigenetic mechanisms that lead to the inactivation of tumor suppressor genes during carcinogenesis. Due to the reversible nature of DNA methylation, many studies have been performed to correct theses epigenetic defects by inhibiting DNA methyltransferases (DNMTs). In this case novel therapeutics especially siRNA oligonucleotides have been used to specifi...
