Fenugreek: Potential Applications as a Functional Food and Nutraceutical
Fenugreek (Trigonella foenum graecum), native to southern Europe and Asia, is an annual herb with white flowers and hard, yellowish brown and angular seeds, known from ancient times, for nutritional value beside of its medicinal effects. Fenugreek seeds are rich source of gum, fiber, alkaloids, flavonoids, saponins and volatile content. Due to its high content of fiber, fenugreek could be...
متن کاملMicroRNAs as oncogenes.
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of non-coding RNAs that function as endogenous triggers of the RNA interference pathway. Originally discovered in Caenorhabditis elegans, this group of tiny RNAs has moved to the forefront of biology. With over 300 miRNA genes identified in the human genome, and a plethora of predicted mRNA targets, it is believed that these small RNAs have a central role in diver...
متن کاملRab1 GTPases as oncogenes
is the founding member of the Rab small GTPase family, which is well known to mediate membrane trafficking between the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and Golgi apparatus [1]. It is a highly conserved protein with two different isoforms, Rab1A and Rab1B in mammals, and predominantly localized on the membrane of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and Golgi apparatus. The ER-Golgi membrane system is increasin...
متن کاملPathogenic Germline Variants in 10,389 Adult Cancers
We conducted the largest investigation of predisposition variants in cancer to date, discovering 853 pathogenic or likely pathogenic variants in 8% of 10,389 cases from 33 cancer types. Twenty-one genes showed single or cross-cancer associations, including novel associations of SDHA in melanoma and PALB2 in stomach adenocarcinoma. The 659 predisposition variants and 18 additional large deletion...
متن کاملGermline TP53 variants and susceptibility to osteosarcoma.
The etiologic contribution of germline genetic variation to sporadic osteosarcoma is not well understood. Osteosarcoma is a sentinel cancer of Li-Fraumeni syndrome (LFS), in which approximately 70% of families meeting the classic criteria have germline TP53 mutations. We sequenced TP53 exons in 765 osteosarcoma cases. Data were analyzed with χ(2) tests, logistic regression, and Cox proportional...
