Potential role of S-adenosylmethionine in osteosarcoma development

The metastatic form of osteosarcoma is a life threatening one since it metastasizes to the lungs. The major cause of metastatic osteosarcoma is hypomethylation of numerous genes that undergo overexpression to enable the progression of the disease. In the present study, S-adenosylmethionine (SAM), a predominant methyl donor, was administered to find out its effects on osteosarcoma progression. A...

development of feminist poetics in adrienne rich

اشعار ریچ، به عنوان اشعاری که همیشه در حال تغییر و دگرگونی هستند، تجسمی از رشد و دگرگونیِ انسان هستد. پایان نامه ی حاضر، با تمرکز بر روی مراحل سیر شعری ریچ از تغییری در دنیا به عکس هایی فوری از یک عروس، سپس به شیرجه به درون کشتی شکسته و در نهایت به صبری عجیب مرا تا اینجا آورده، به بررسی این مراحل در قالب نظر شوالتر در رابطه با سه مرحله ی پیشرفت ادبی زنان یعنی مرحله ی زنانه، زن گرا و زن محور می پ...

Role of S-adenosylmethionine in methionine biosynthesis in yeast.

Extracts of Saccharomyces cerevisiae were used to develop a cell-free system capable of converting the beta-carbon of serine into the methyl group of methionine. No requirement for either S-adenosylmethionine or S-adenosylhomocysteine could be demonstrated for net methionine biosynthesis. Growth of the cells in B(12) did not affect the reaction. The mechanism for the methylation of homocysteine...

Role of S-adenosylmethionine in two experimental models of pancreatitis.

Severe necrotizing pancreatitis occurs in young female mice fed a choline-deficient and ethionine-supplemented (CDE) diet. Although the mechanism of the pancreatitis is unknown, one consequence of this diet is depletion of hepatic S-adenosylmethionine (SAM). SAM formation is catalyzed by methionine adenosyltransferases (MATs), which are encoded by liver-specific (MAT1A) and non-liver-specific (...
