Two forms of thymidine kinase in normal and tumor tissues of animals.

Estrogenic Activity of Some Phytoestrogens on Bovine Oxytocin and Thymidine Kinase-ERE Promoter through Estrogen Receptor-α in MDA-MB 231 Cells

Background: Phytoestrogens, a group of plant-derived polyphenolic compounds have recently come into considerable attention due to the increasing information on their potential adverse effects in human health. Some of phytoestrogens show estrogenic activity that may be carcinogenic for human. In the present study, we investigated the transcriptional effects of variety of phytoestrogens&nbsp...

Multiple forms of deoxythymidine kinase in various tissues.

A simple method to detect the existence of multiple forms of deoxythymidine was established. With this method, the pattern of the enzyme was examined in various normal and tumor tissues. The existence of multiple forms of the enzyme was demonstrated in tumor tissues such as Yoshida sarcoma, Ehrlich ascites, Hepatoma AH 130, Sarcoma 180, and Morris Hepatomas 7793 and 7794A, but not in normal rat...

PCR detection of thymidine kinase gen of latent herpes simplex Virus type 1 in mice trigeminal ganglia

  Herpes simplex virus type 1 establishes a latent infection in the peripheral nervous system following primary infection. During latent infection, virus genome exhibit limited transcription, with the HSV LATs consistently detected in latency infected ganaglia. Following ocular infection viral latency develops in the trigeminal ganglia. In this study PCR has been used for detection of HSV-1 nuc...

Expression Changes of the FOXE1 and lncRNA PTCSC2 Expression in Tumor Tissues Compared with Normal Tissues in Patients with Colorectal Cancer

Introduction: In recent studies, methylation of FOXE1 in colorectal cancer has been reported as a diagnostic biomarker. In this study for the first time, the expression of FOXE1 and PTCSC2 in colorectal cancer was investigated and their expression patterns in two healthy and tumor tissues of patients were compared. Methods: In this study, 40 tumor tissues with colorectal cancer and 40 adjacent...
