New insights into adipocyte-specific leptin gene expression
The adipocyte-derived hormone leptin is a critical regulator of many physiological functions, ranging from satiety to immunity. Surprisingly, very little is known about the transcriptional pathways that regulate adipocyte-specific expression of leptin. In a recent published study, we pursued a strategy integrating BAC transgenic reporter mice, in vitro reporter assays, and chromatin state mappi...
متن کاملTissue Specific Expression of Human Calcitonin Gene in Potato Tubers by an Organ Specific Promoter
To increase the production level of heterologous proteins in plants, strategies such as choice of strongerpromoters, optimization of codon usage and specific localization of foreign proteins are of major concern.Calcitonin (CT), a 32 amino acid polypeptide is a powerful and specific inhibitor of bone resorption and isused to treat several human diseases. Calcitonin activity is...
متن کاملO-28: New Insights into the Mechanisms UnderlyingChlamydia Trachomatis Infection InducedFemale Infertility
Background: Chlamydia (C.) trachomatis is an obligate intracellular gram-negative pathogen affecting over 600 million people worldwide with 92 million new cases occurring globally each year. Genital C. trachomatis infection has been recognized as the most common cause of pelvic inflammatory disease leading to severe tubal damage, ectopic pregnancy, hydrosalpinx and infertility. However, the mec...
متن کاملNew insights into testicular germ cell tumorigenesis from gene expression profiling.
We have shown recently that about half of the human TGCTs(3) reveal DNA copy number increases affecting two distinct regions on chromosome arm 17q. To identify potential target genes with elevated expressions attributable to the extra copies, we constructed a cDNA microarray containing 636 genes and expressed sequence tags from chromosome 17. The expression patterns of 14 TGCTs, 1 carcinoma in ...
متن کاملNon-coding Transcripts from Enhancers: New Insights into Enhancer Activity and Gene Expression Regulation
Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have gained widespread interest in the past decade owing to their enormous amount and surprising functions implicated in a variety of biological processes. Some lncRNAs exert function as enhancers, i.e., activating gene transcription by serving as the cis-regulatory molecules. Furthermore, recent studies have demonstrated that many enhancer elements can be transcr...
