What Makes a Marker a Good Marker?
To validate if DCX truly predicts neuron recruitment throughout the canary brain, it should correlate to a high degree with established methods for studying neuron recruitment, such as labeling cells with the mitotic marker 5-bromo-2-deoxyuridine (BrdU). This is not the case, however, as we observed clear regional differences in the relationship between the two labeling methods in neurogenic an...
متن کاملTRP channels in schistosomes
Praziquantel (PZQ) is effectively the only drug currently available for treatment and control of schistosomiasis, a disease affecting hundreds of millions of people worldwide. Many anthelmintics, likely including PZQ, target ion channels, membrane protein complexes essential for normal functioning of the neuromusculature and other tissues. Despite this fact, only a few classes of parasitic helm...
متن کاملNon-coding RNAs in schistosomes: an unexplored world.
Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) were recently given much higher attention due to technical advances in sequencing which expanded the characterization of transcriptomes in different organisms. ncRNAs have different lengths (22 nt to >1,000 nt) and mechanisms of action that essentially comprise a sophisticated gene expression regulation network. Recent publication of schistosome genomes and transcriptom...
متن کاملEvaluation of Endoglin as an Angiogenesis Marker in Glioblastoma
Background and Objectives: Angiogenesis is essential for growth and metastasis of solid malignancies. Tumor vessel count and expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), a potent angiogenic factor, have been associated with prognosis. This study was designed to assess vessels density by using CD31 and CD105 (Endoglin) and their correlation with expression of VEGF and prolif...
