The effect of Citrullus colocynthis on the induction of Casp3 and Casp8 gene expression on human Glioblastoma U87 cell line
Introduction: Using in vitro MTT assay and Real-time PCR, the cytotoxicity and cell inhibition mechanism of using Citrullus colocynthis on human glioblastoma U87 cell line was investigated. Methods: The plant extract was extracted using ethanol (70%). To investigate the cytotoxic effects of Citrullus colocynthis extract on U87 cell line, 10 4 cells per well was incubated with different concentr...
متن کاملControl of Human PLP1 Expression Through Transcriptional Regulatory Elements and Alternatively Spliced Exons in Intron 1
Although the myelin proteolipid protein gene (PLP1) encodes the most abundant protein in central nervous system (CNS) myelin, not much is known about the mechanisms that govern expression of the human gene (hPLP1). Much more is known about the processes that regulate Plp1 gene expression in rodents. From studies with Plp1-lacZ transgenic mice, it was determined that the first intron of mouse Pl...
متن کاملEffects of Transcriptional Pausing on Gene Expression Dynamics
Stochasticity in gene expression affects many cellular processes and is a source of phenotypic diversity between genetically identical individuals. Events in elongation, particularly RNA polymerase pausing, are a source of this noise. Since the rate and duration of pausing are sequence-dependent, this regulatory mechanism of transcriptional dynamics is evolvable. The dependency of pause propens...
متن کاملGlioblastoma and the significance of MGMT gene methylation
Keywords Chemotherapy Glioblastoma MGMT gene Radiotherapy Temozolomide In this research Glioblastoma has been studied as one of the most common brain tumors and a short review of the available therapeutic methods have presented including surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy and particularly adjuvant chemotherapy with temozolomide, as the most effective developed treatment.

متن کاملPromoter Methylation and Gene Expression in Human CD34+ Stem Cells Derived Erythroid Lineage by MicroRNA
Background: Stem Cell differentiation is a process composed of vast variety of factors which are controlled by a network of certain mechanisms. This study aims to determine the possible role of DNA methylation, a potent regulator of VHL, ECAD and RUNX3 genes during Erythroid differentiation driven by miR-451. Materials and Methods: To determine the methylation status of promoters and the e...
