Expression and interactions of human adenovirus oncoproteins

Expression of p21 ras oncoproteins in human cancers.

The expression of proteins encoded by ras oncogenes was examined in 52 fresh human tumors of 19 different types using antibodies generated to different peptide domains of ras proteins of molecular weight 21,000 (p21). Proteins related to ras genes were detected in 90% of tested tumors. In 21% of tumors there were high levels of ras p21 of greater than 40% of the level in a Harvey murine sarcoma...

Production of Recombinant Adenovirus Containing Human Interlukin-4 Gene

Objective(s) Recombinant adenoviruses are currently used for a variety of purposes, including in vitro gene transfer, in vivo vaccination, and gene therapy. Ability to infect many cell types, high efficiency in gene transfer, entering both dividing and non dividing cells, and growing to high titers make this virus a good choice for using in various experiments. In the present experiment, a reco...

Molecular Investigation of the Human Adenovirus in Retinoblastoma Patients

Background and Aims: Retinoblastoma tumors are the most common intraocular malignancy in childhood, leading to death after two years. The Human Adenovirus (HAdV) infection could be critical in the retinoblastoma pathogenesis due to the virus and retinoblastoma 1 interactions. The objective of the current study was to investigate the possible presence of the HAdV genome in the retinoblastoma pat...
