RNA inhibits estrogen receptor binding to DNA.
Cytosol from MTW9 rat mammary tumor contains a high molecular weight inhibitor of estrogen receptor binding to DNA. RNase treatment of crude preparations destroys inhibitory activity, whereas DNase or trypsin treatment are without affect, suggesting that some RNA molecule might be involved; in addition, RNA extracted from tumor cytosol was an effective inhibitor of estrogen receptor binding to ...
متن کاملProteinaceous diet inhibits gossypol-induced spermatotoxicity.
The present study was designed to investigate the effect of a proteinaceous dietary supplement, fishmeal, on gossypol-induced spermatotoxicity. Twenty-five adult male Wistar rats, averaging 205 g b.w., were randomly sorted into four experimental groups (I-IV) of 5 animals each, and a control group. Crude cottonseed oil was administered orally to each animal in groups I-IV at a rate that provide...
متن کاملMicroheterogeneity of rat alpha-fetoprotein.
A purified and homogeneous preparation of rat AFP, as judged by both electrophoresis on Cellogel and immunoelectrophoresis, was separated into two components, AFPa and AFPb, by disc electrophoresis on 7% polyacrylamide gel. These two components had a definite difference in electrostatic net charge and gave only a single band on SDS-electrophoresis. Immunological reactivity or electrophoretic se...
متن کاملBinding of phytoestrogens to rat uterine estrogen receptors and human sex hormone-binding globulins.
The interaction of phytoestrogens with the most important binding sites of steroid hormones, i.e. sex hormone-binding globulin and estrogen receptors, was investigated. Relative binding affinities and association constants for 21 compounds among them isoflavones, flavones, flavonols, flavanones, chalcones and lignans were determined. The lignan nordihydroguaiaretic acid weakly displaced 17beta-...
متن کاملMONOCLONAL ANTIBODIES TO HUMAN ALPHA-FETOPROTEIN
Alpha-fetoprotein (AFP), a serum glycoprotein belonging to the onco-developmental proteins group, serves as a marker both in cancer research and in studies concerning fetal development and fetal pathophysiology. Monoclonal anti-AFP antibodies are essential reagents in developing appropriate techniques for measurement of this protein. In this study, in order to produce anti-AFP monoclonal a...
