Over expression of Nrf2 in Umbilical Cord-derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells Up regulates Cytoprotective Genes, TXNRD1 and GCLC
Background: Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are ideal cells for cell and gene therapy. However, the low survival of MSCs after transplantation has limited their applications. We aimed to evaluate the expression of cytoprotective genes including NQO1, TXNRD1, HO-1, GCLC following the over expression of Nrf2 in umbilical cord-derived MSCs (UC-MSCs). Methods: 3-5 passages of UC-MSCs were cultured. ...
متن کاملAntiviral activity of Nrf2 in a murine model of respiratory syncytial virus disease.
RATIONALE Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is the most frequent cause of significant lower respiratory illness in infants and young children, but its pathogenesis is not fully understood. The transcription factor Nrf2 protects lungs from oxidative injury and inflammation via antioxidant response element (ARE)-mediated gene induction. OBJECTIVES The current study was designed to determine the...
متن کاملTranscript analysis of some defense genes of tomato in response to host and non-host bacterial pathogens
The transcript levels of six defense genes including pathogenesis-related gene 1 (PR-1), pathogenesis-related gene 2 (PR-2), pathogenesis-related gene 5 (PR-5), lipoxygenase (LOX), phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL) and catalase (CAT) were investigated in tomato plants inoculated with Xanthomonas axonopodis pv. phaseoli as a non-host pathogen and X. euvesicatoria as a host pathogen. Activation o...
متن کاملVersatile activity of the master regulator of the antioxidant response in tumor initiation, progression and metastasis
Oxidative intermediates derived from endogenous metabolism or xenobiotic stimuli are a major cause of cancer initiation. Host defense systems have evolved to cope with these oxidative stresses and prevent carcinogenesis. The basic leucine zipper transcription factor Nrf2 (Nuclear factor-erythroid derived 2-like 2, Nfe2l2) regulates the cellular defense system against oxidative stress, and gover...
متن کاملPresence of Hysterothylacium gadi aduncum (Rudolphi, 1802) (Anisakidae) in cultured Rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss Walbaum, 1792) in fresh water farms from Turkey and its mortality
The presence of the anisakid nematode Hysterothylacium gadi aduncum (Rudolphi, 1802) is reported for the first time in cultured rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss Walbaum, 1792) as a new host in freshwater farms from Turkey. This marine parasitic nematode is thought to complete the life cycle in fresh water and rainbow trout could act as the definitive host for this parasite under fresh water c...
