Post-translational modifications (PTMs) regulate multiple biological functions of the promyelocytic leukemia (PML) protein and also the fission, disassembly, and rebuilding of PML nuclear bodies (PML-NBs) during the cell cycle. Pathway-specific PML modification patterns ensure proper signal output from PML-NBs that suit the specific functional requirements. Here we comprehensively review the si...

The PML gene is frequently fused to the retinoic acid receptor α (RARα) gene in acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL), generating a characteristic PML-RARα oncogenic chimera. PML-RARα disrupts the discrete nuclear speckles termed nuclear bodies, which are formed in PML, suggesting that nuclear body disruption is involved in leukemogenesis. Nuclear body formation that relies upon PML oligomerizatio...

OBJECTIVE Endothelial progenitor cells (EPC) in one study group is not the same as EPC in other investigators, suggesting that EPC is not a single type of cell population. In this study, we tried to demonstrate the heterogeneity of EPC. METHODS AND RESULTS We cultured total mononuclear cells from human peripheral blood to get two types of EPC sequentially from the same donors. We called them ...

The precise and conceptual insight of circulating endothelial progenitor cell (EPC) kinetics is hampered by the absence of an assay system capable of evaluating the EPC differentiation cascade. An assay system for EPC colony formation was developed to delineate circulating EPC differentiation. EPC colony-forming assay using semisolid medium and single or bulk CD133(+) cells from umbilical cord ...

INTRODUCTION Previously, we demonstrated that children with active systemic vasculitis (SV) have higher circulating CD34 + CD133 + KDR+ endothelial progenitor cells (EPC); the function of these EPCs, and their relationship with disease activity in vasculitis remains largely unexplored. We hypothesized that although EPC numbers are higher, EPC function is impaired in active SV of the young. The ...

engineering – procurement and construction (epc) contract is one of the current contracts in the today world. when governmental sector trends to use the expertise of domestic or foreign private in engineering and construction of infrastructural projects, finds epc contract as a suitable legal frame. in this article, we have tried to discuss about the most important legal aspects of this kind of...
