The Expression of The Autophagy Gene Beclin-1 mRNA and Protein in Ectopic and Eutopic Endometrium of Patients with Endometriosis

The Effects of Resistance and Endurance Training on the Liver Tissue FNDC5 mRNA Gene Expression in Male Rats

Background. The accumulation of excess triglyceride in the liver and a decrease in brown adipose tissue is related to the fatty liver disease. Regular physical activity can take part in regulating fat oxidation and inhibiting fat accumulation by creating and releasing some myokines. Nevertheless, the effectiveness of each training method in this regard is still not certain. Objective(s). This ...

mRNA modifications: Dynamic regulators of gene expression?

The expression of a gene is a tightly regulated process and is exerted by a myriad of different mechanisms. Recently, RNA modifications located in coding sequences of mRNAs, have been identified as potential regulators of gene expression. N(6)-methyladenosine (m(6)A), 5-methylcytosine (m(5)C), pseudouridine (Ψ) and N(1)-methyladenosine (m(1)A) have been found within open reading frames of mRNAs...

Cytokine mRNA gene expression in active and nonactive pulmonary sarcoidosis.

Sarcoidosis is a multisystem granulomatous disease associated with the expansion and activation of CD4+ T-lymphocytes and macrophages. To investigate the immunopathology of active and nonactive pulmonary sarcoidosis, we have examined the expression of cytokine gene transcripts in bronchoalveolar lavage cells from 15 patients with active pulmonary sarcoidosis, eight patients with non-active pulm...

Gene expression networks in COPD: microRNA and mRNA regulation.

BACKGROUND The mechanisms underlying chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) remain unclear. MicroRNAs (miRNAs or miRs) are small non-coding RNA molecules that modulate the levels of specific genes and proteins. Identifying expression patterns of miRNAs in COPD may enhance our understanding of the mechanisms of disease. A study was undertaken to determine if miRNAs are differentially expre...
