CK2 is a pleiotropic protein kinase, which regulates many survival pathways and plays a global anti-apoptotic function. It is highly expressed in tumor cells, and is presently considered a promising therapeutic target. Among the many inhibitors available for this kinase, the recently developed CX-4945 and CX-5011 have proved to be very potent, selective and effective in inducing cell death in t...

Chronic myeloid leukaemia (CML) is a myeloproliferative disorder promoted by the constitutive tyrosine kinase activity of Bcr-Abl oncoprotein. Although treatment with the Bcr-Abl-inhibitor imatinib represents the first-line therapy against CML, almost 20-30% of patients develop chemotherapeutic resistance and require alternative therapy. Here we show that a strong hyper-phosphorylation/activati...

in this study, urease production was investigated among thirteen strains of aspergillus niger seven strains isolated from soils of semnan province in iran and six strains obtained from persian type culture collection (ptcc). the enzyme production was screened in two submerged media quantitatively. the registered ptcc 5011 and the native s31 strains showed more urease production than the other e...

The reliability of a mechanized procedure for the determination of the glutamate dehydrogenase activity in human sera was investigated with an Eppendorf analyzer 5011. In spite of a 1:3.5 ratio of sample to assay volume, carry-over effects can be neglected between sera containing less than 60 U/l. For routine purposes it is suggested that 0.3 U/l be subtracted from each activity found in human ...
