Associated with recent achievements in therapy for advanced lung adenocarcinoma, there will still be an unmet medical need for effective treatment of stage IIIb/IV, and the prognosis of lung cancer is not optimistic till now.In order to obtain some essential evidences for a potential targeted therapy in lung adenocarcinoma, the effects of Ovol2 gene on Epithelial-to-Mesenchymal Transition (EMT) was...
Microbial remediation has become one of the most important strategies for eliminating petroleum pollutants. Revealing the transcript maps of microorganisms with the hydrocarbon-degrading ability contributes to enhance the degradation of hydrocarbons and further improve the effectiveness of bioremediation. In this study, we characterized the transcriptome of hydrocarbon-degrading Achromobacter sp....
In the present study, a zebrafish hsp27 promoter was isolated and used to develop heat shock inducible gfp transgenic zebrafish. The endogenous hsp27 mRNAs were constitutively expressed from 4 hpf and increased in several regions of brain, heart and somites in early embryogenesis until 24 hpf. Subsequently, the expression was reduced significantly but maintained in the heart and ears. Heat shock induced...
Vitellogenins (Vtgs) are yolk precursor proteins in oviparous species and are cleaved into three portions–lipovitellin I (LVI), phosvitin (PV), and lipovitellin II (LVII)–in oocytes in vertebrates. In the present study, we found that the zebrafish genome contains at least seven vtg genes (vtg1–7) encoding heterogeneous vitellogenins with three distinct types of Vtgs: type I (Vtg1, 4–7) contains all...
In the present study, both zebrafish and medaka vitellogenin genes have been isolated and used as a biomarker to compare the two small aquarium fish in response to estrogen treatment and thus to evaluate the two fish models in development of a biomonitoring system for environmental estrogens. The isolated zebrafish vitellogenin gene, zvtg1, is the most abundantly expressed vitellogenin gene in zebrafish...
By analysis of zebrafish EST (expressed sequence tag) clones from an adult cDNA library, we have identified 44 clones, about 11% of the adult EST clones, encoding vitellogenins. These vitellogenin EST clones have been derived from at least seven distinct vitellogenin genes. One of the largest vitellogenin cDNA clones, vg3, and its 5' extended clone isolated by 5' RACE (rapid amplification of cDNA...
