The Gene Polymorphism of the Angiotensin I-Converting Enzyme Correlates with Tumor Size and Patient Survival in Colorectal Cancer Patients
Abstract We studied the putative significance of angiotensin I-converting enzyme (ACE) in colorectal cancer (CRC) biology. Local expression of ACE was investigated by quantitative reverse transcription- polymerase chain reaction and by...

Smells familiar: group-joining decisions of predatory mites are mediated by olfactory cues of social familiarity
Group-living animals frequently have to trade off the costs and benefits of leaving an established group and joining another group. Owing to their high fitness relevance, group-joining decisions are commonly nonrandom and may be based on traits of both individual...

Gene Expression Profile of Glioblastoma Multiforme Invasive Phenotype Points to New Therapeutic Targets
Abstract The invasive phenotype of glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is a hallmark of malignant process, yet molecular mechanisms that dictate this locally invasive behavior remain poorly understood. Gene expression profiles of human glioma cells were...

CCL2 as an Important Mediator of Prostate Cancer Growth In Vivo through the Regulation of Macrophage Infiltration
Abstract The ability of CCL2 to influence prostate cancer tumorigenesis and metastasis may occur through two distinct mechanisms: 1) a direct effect on tumor cell growth and function, and 2) an indirect effect on the tumor microenvironment by the...

Cooperative Interactions of HER-2, HPV-16 Oncoproteins in the Malignant Transformation of Human Mammary Epithelial Cells
Abstract To better underst, the mechanisms of transformation by the oncogene HER-2, we transduced the human mammary epithelial (HME) cell line MCF-10A with HER-2, developed a cell line that appeared to moderately overexpress HER-2. These MCF-10HER-2 ...

Balance of Yin and Yang: Ubiquitylation-Mediated Regulation of p53 and c-Myc
Abstract Protein ubiquitylation has been demonstrated to play a vital role not only in mediating protein turnover but also in modulating protein activity. The stability and activity of the tumor suppressor p53 and of the oncoprotein c-Myc are no...

Cord Blood–Derived and Peripheral Blood–Derived Cytokine-Induced Killer Cells Are Sensitive to Fas-Mediated Apoptosis
Abstract Fas-mediated apoptosis is one of the mechanisms used by tumor cells to escape the cytotoxicity of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes. It has been suggested that cytokine-induced killer (CIK) cells are resistant to Fas-mediated apoptosis,...

Production of reactive oxygen species in excised, desiccated and cryopreserved explants of Trichilia dregeana Sond
Abstract The tropical tree Trichilia dregeana Sond. has recalcitrant seeds that cannot be stored by conventional seed banking methods that include drying and storage at low temperatures, or by using cryopreservation protocols that have been...

Phylogenetic relationships within Pappophoreae s.l. (Poaceae: Chloridoideae): Additional evidence based on ITS and trnL-F sequence data
Abstract Historically, Pappophoreae included the genera Cottea, Enneapogon, Kaokochloa, Pappophorum and Schmidtia. Some authors consider this tribe as a well-supported monophyletic group; while other evidences reveals Pappophoreae as polyphyletic,...

Early inflorescence and floral development in Cocos nucifera L. (Arecaceae: Arecoideae)
Abstract Palms are generally characterized by a large structure with a massive crown that creates difficulties in anatomical studies. The flowering behaviour of palm species may be a useful indicator of phylogenetic relationships and therefore...
