Dysregulation of c-Myc is one of the most common abnormalities in human malignancies, including esophageal cancer, one of the world's most lethal cancers. MicroRNA-26 family, including miR-26a and miR-26b, is transcriptionally suppressed by c-MYC. Our previous microarray data indicated a decreased-expression of miR-26 family in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). However, its roles in c-MYC...
Placenta specific protein 8 (Plac8) has been well studied in vertebrates, yet little is known in invertebrates. In this study, a novel Plac8 from the planarian Dugesia japonica was identified and its functions in immune responses and development were characterized. Our results show that Djplac8 was expressed in the pharynx, epidermis and intestine of intact adult planarian. The expression of DjPlac8...
Hutchinson–Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS) is a typical presenile disorder, with mutation in the LMNA gene. Besides HGPS, mutations in LMNA gene have also been reported in atypical progeroid syndrome (APS). The objective of the study was to investigate the phenotype and molecular basis of APS in a Chinese family. LMNA gene mutations were also reviewed to identify the phenotypic and pathogenic differences...
Brachydactyly is a relatively common congenital abnormality and can be associated with many other malformations. However, brachydactyly in association with absence of nasal bone is rare. Two Chinese siblings with a combination of nasal bone absence and brachydactyly are presented, apparently without other abnormalities. This combination of features do not fit into any previously described syndrome...
