چکیده

Intracellular interactions shape cells Intestinal epithelial cells build a brush border of microvilli at their apical surfaces that mediates nutrient absorption and host defense. Scott Crawley (Tyska Laboratory, Vanderbilt University Medical Center) showed that brush border assembly is driven by trans interactions between protocadherin-24 and mucin-like protocadherin at the tips of adjacent microvilli. Loss of this adhesive complex causes irregularities in the length and spacing of these protrusions and contributes to the intestinal pathology seen in a mouse model of Usher syndrome.

Study of Antimetastatic Effect of Genistein Through Inhibition of Expression of Matrix Metalloproteinase in A-549 Cell Line

The lung cancer is one of the most dangerous cancers and is also the leading cause of cancer death worldwide, accounting for about 1.3 million deaths annually. However in clinical practice, lung cancer therapies commonly do with chemotherapy, although it is hard because the lung cancer may progress to metastasis stage. The metastasis of lung cancer is highly dependent of expression of matrix me...

Dynamical Analysis of Yeast Cell Cycle Using a Stochastic Markov Model

Introduction: The cell cycle network is responsible of control, growth and proliferation of cells. The relationship between the cell cycle network and cancer emergence, and the complex reciprocal interactions between genes/proteins calls for computational models to analyze this regulatory network. Ample experimental data confirm the existence of random behaviors in the interactions between gene...
