Chromosome instability and expression of BRAF, TERT and P53 in macrophage murine cell line (J774-1)
نویسندگان
چکیده
Background Cancer origin is closely linked with mutations and changes in the chromosome structure, making important such cytogenetics studies [1]. Macrophage murine cell line J774-1 is derived from a reticulum cell sarcoma and presents various characteristics of primary macrophages as synthesis and lysozyme secretion, phagocytosis, Fc receptor expression [2,3]. This work aimed to analyze the fundamental number and the constitutive heterochromatin using the staining with the flurochrome Hoechst 33258. In order to undertand possible changes in gene expression pattern, it was also quantified the levels of expression of the following important classes of genes: (A)-Genes responsible to promoting cell proliferation as BRAF and Telomerase (TERT); (B)-The P53 gene responsible by tumor suppressing.

STAT3 as a Key Factor in Tumor Microenvironment and Cancer Stem Cell
Background Recent studies revealed that tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) play a decisive role in the regulation of tumor progression by manipulating tumor oncogenesis, angiogenesis and immune functions within tumor microenvironments. Signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3), which is a point of convergence for numerous oncogenic signalling pathways, is constitutively activ...

Background and purpose: Human papillomavirus (HPV) is one of the infectious agents that causes genital and non-genital warts and skin cancers in humans. The E7 protein of this virus is one of the small oncoproteins that may be the main target in therapeutic vaccines. E7 protein with HIV-1 Tat peptide (49-59), plays a protective role that cause immune Th1 and CTLs response. The aim of this study...

Background: Somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT) provides an appealing alternative for the conservation and improvement of genetic material of unique and endangered species. An important prerequisite for successful SCNT is the availability of good quality donor cells, as normal embryo development is dependent upon proper reprogramming of the donor genome so that embryonic genes can be appropria...
