Genetic and spectrally distinct in vivo imaging: embryonic stem cells and mice with widespread expression of a monomeric red fluorescent protein
BACKGROUND DsRed the red fluorescent protein (RFP) isolated from Discosoma sp. coral holds much promise as a genetically and spectrally distinct alternative to green fluorescent protein (GFP) for application in mice. Widespread use of DsRed has been hampered by several issues resulting in the inability to establish and maintain lines of red fluorescent protein expressing embryonic stem cells an...
متن کاملGrowth Kinetics, Characterization, and Plasticity of Human Menstrual Blood Stem Cells
One of the readily available sources of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) is menstrual blood-derived stem cells (Men-SCs), which exhibit characteristics similar to other types of MSCs. This study was performed to determine the growth kinetics, plasticity, and characterization of Men-SCs in women. During spring 2014 in the southern Iranian city of Shiraz, menstrual blood (5 mL) was obtained from 10 ...
متن کاملMolecular Farming, an Effective System for the Production of Immunogenic Crimean-Congo Hemorrhagic Fever Virus Glycoprotein
The main aim of this study was to obtain the Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever virus (CCHFV) glycoprotein, through either stable transgenic plants or using a transient expression system, and determine the yield, quality and finally the immunogenicity of the plant-made CCHFV glycoprotein in a mouse model. We designed and synthesized a codon-optimized G1/G2 gene from the G1 and G2 parts of the CCHF...
متن کاملHigh-level transgene expression mediated by the piggyBac transposon enhances transgenic therapeutic effects in cervical cancer xenografts.
The piggyBac (PB) transposon is a recently identified, active and flexible transgene vector, combining the advantages of non-viral gene delivery with genomic integration and persistent transgene expression. In this study, we utilized the PB transposon to carry the herpes simplex thymidine kinase (HSV-tk) and red fluorescent protein (mRFP1) reporter genes into the HeLa cervical cancer cell line ...
متن کاملP-5: Effect of Chronic Stress on Kiss-1 mRNA Expression in Male Rat Arcuate Hypothalamic Nucleus
Background Kisspeptin is a potent stimulator of the hypothalamic- pituitary-gonadal axis and may play a critical role in modulating of stress-induced suppression of reproduction. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of glucocorticoid receptor antagonist (RU486) and stress on expression of Kiss-1 mRNA in arcuate nucleus (ARC) of rat hypothalamus.
