Expression and characterization of a human carboxylesterase 2 splice variant.

تأثیر آدنوزین ´5تری فسفات در القای آپوپتوز و مهار بیان ژن Survivin و واریانت پیرایشی ضد آپوپتوزی SUR-3B آن در سلول های K562

Introduction: Leukemia is a heterogeneous malignant disease in which progression at the level of CD34+ cells has a major impact in drug resistance and relapse. The multi-drug resistance gene product, P-glycoprotein is an inhibitor of apoptosis proteins (IAPs), such as Survivin that are expressed simultaneously with several putative drug resistance parameters in CD34+ leukemia cells. In fact, IA...

Comparison of Expression of Growth Hormone-Releasing Hormone and Its Receptor Splice Variant 1 in Different Stages of Endometriosis

P-127: Characterization of Filia, A Maternal Effect Gene, in Bovine Oocytes and Embryos

Background: Genetic analysis in mice has lead to find about maternal effect genes such as Filia. Filia knock out mice have a 50% decrease in fertility. Filia dysfunction causes disorders in pre-implantation development. Mutations in human Filia gene, cause FBHM (Familial Biparental Hydatidiform Mole) in women. Filia protein in mice is homologous to that of rat and human, so this idea has emerge...

Identification of Spata-19 New Variant with Expression beyond Meiotic Phase of Mouse Testis Development

Background: The study of specific genes expressed in the testis is important to understanding testis development and function. Spermatogenesis is an attractive model for the study of gene expression during germ cell differentiation. Spermatogenesis associated-19 (Spata-19) is a recently-identified important spermatogenesis-related gene specifically expressed in testis. Its protein product is in...

Functional characterization of three naturally occurring single nucleotide polymorphisms in the CES2 gene encoding carboxylesterase 2 (HCE-2).

Twelve single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the human CES2 gene, which encodes a carboxylesterase, hCE-2 [human carboxylesterase 2 (EC 3.1.1.1)], have been reported in the Japanese. In this report, we have examined functional alterations of three SNPs, a nonsynonymous SNP (100C>T, R34W), an SNP at the splice acceptor site in intron 8 (IVS8-2A>G), and one newly discovered nonsynonymous SNP ...
