Expression of Fas and Fas ligand mRNA in rat and human preimplantation embryos.
The Fas-Fas ligand (L) system is one of the major signalling pathways to induce apoptosis in various cells and tissues. The aim of this study was to investigate the expression of the Fas-Fas L system in rat and human oocytes and preimplantation embryos. We determined the expression of Fas and Fas L mRNA of rat oocytes and embryos up to the blastocyst stage, and of human embryos at the 2- or 4-c...
متن کاملExpression of Fas and Fas ligand protein and mRNA in mouse oocytes and embryos.
During mammalian embryonic development, abnormal eggs and embryos are eliminated by apoptosis; however, the precise apoptotic pathways remain as yet unidentified. In the present study, expression of Fas and Fas ligand - the proximal members of the death receptor pathway, was evaluated in mouse preimplantation embryos by immunofluorescence and in situ hybridization techniques. Ovulated oocytes w...
متن کاملFas and Fas-ligand expression in human pancreatic cancer.
OBJECTIVE To investigate Fas and FasL expression in pancreatic tissues and cultured pancreatic cancer cell lines, and to assess the ability of anti-Fas antibodies to induce apoptosis. SUMMARY BACKGROUND DATA Activation of the Fas receptor by Fas-ligand (FasL) results in apoptosis, and dysregulation of this pathway may contribute to abnormal cell proliferation. METHODS Northern blotting and ...
متن کاملStatus of FAS and FAS Ligand Gene Polymorphisms in Patients wi th Breast Cancer in Northeastern IRAN
Background: The First apoptosis signal (FAS) and First apoptosis signal ligand (FASL) genes initiate the apoptosis pathway, playing a central role in the tumor growth and metastasis. Gene polymorphisms including -1377 G/A in the promoter region of FAS and -844 C/T in the promoter region of FASL have shown to change the transcription activities of these genes. Methods: In this study we evalua...
متن کاملApoptosis and Fas/Fas ligand mRNA expression in acute immune complex alveolitis in mice.
Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) strand breaks as a characteristic of apoptosis, and Fas antigen (Fas)/Fas ligand (FasL) expression may participate in acute immune complex alveolitis in mice. Male Institute for Cancer Research (ICR) mice were injected intravenously with immunoglobulin G (IgG) antibodies against ovalbumin and inhaled an aerosolized oval albumin (OA) solution. They were killed at 4, 6...
