The Effect of Herpes Simplex Virus Virion Host Shutoff Gene- a New Suicide Gene- on Tumor Cells
Background: The herpes simplex virus (HSV) UL41 gene product, virion host shutoff (Vhs) protein, mediates the rapid degradation of both viral and cellular mRNA. This ability suggests that Vhs protein can be used as a suicide gene in cancer gene therapy applications. The recent reports have shown that the degradation of cellular mRNA during herpes simplex infection is selective. RNA containing A...
متن کاملOncogenes and anti-oncogenes in tumorigenesis.
Recent advances have led to the identification of cellular genes which are involved in the initiation and progression of tumorigenesis. The proto-oncogenes, which normally participate in the regulation of cell proliferation and differentiation, can become oncogenes through alterations in the regulation of their expression and/or their coding sequences. Their contribution to the tumorigenic phen...
متن کاملToxicity Effect of Bromoacetic Acid on MCF7 Breast Cancer Cell Line and Analysis of Expression of Apoptosis-Associated Genes
Introduction: Cancer, the uncontrolled division of cells, occurs because of environmental factors and genetic disorders. Breast cancer is the most common cancer and the second leading cause of cancer death in women. Four categories of key genes, including oncogenes, tumor suppressor genes, repairing genes, and programmed– cell death genes, contribute to cancer development. Bromoacetic acid is a...
متن کاملModulation of junction tension by tumor suppressors and proto-oncogenes regulates cell-cell contacts.
Tumor suppressors and proto-oncogenes play crucial roles in tissue proliferation. Furthermore, de-regulation of their functions is deleterious to tissue architecture and can result in the sorting of somatic rounded clones minimizing their contact with surrounding wild-type (wt) cells. Defects in the shape of somatic clones correlate with defects in proliferation, cell affinity, cell-cell adhesi...
متن کاملDissociation of EphB2 Signaling Pathways Mediating Progenitor Cell Proliferation and Tumor Suppression
Signaling proteins driving the proliferation of stem and progenitor cells are often encoded by proto-oncogenes. EphB receptors represent a rare exception; they promote cell proliferation in the intestinal epithelium and function as tumor suppressors by controlling cell migration and inhibiting invasive growth. We show that cell migration and proliferation are controlled independently by the rec...
