Melanoma is a cancer that arises from melanocytes, specialized pigmented cells that are found predominantly in the skin. The incidence of malignant melanoma has significantly increased over the last decade. With the development of therapy, the survival rate of some kind of cancer has been improved greatly. But the treatment of melanoma remains unsatisfactory. Much of melanoma's resistance to traditional...
Cisplatin is one of the most effective chemotherapeutic agents for the treatment of lung cancer. However, the acquired resistance occurred in cancer cells limits the clinical application of cisplatin. MCL-1, which is an important member in the pro-survival Bcl-2 family, plays a critical role in multidrug resistance (MDR). The aim of the present study is to investigate the value of Pan-Bcl-2 inhibitor...
miRNA is an exogenous non-coding RNA with 21–24nt in length, which plays a crucial role in almost all biological processes. In plants, miRNAs regulate organ development, phase change, signal transduction and response to different biotic and abiotic stresses at the post-transcriptional levels. Although there are many studies on plant miRNAs, no studies have been focused on the genotype dependence....
The effect of ABCB1 C3435T SNP on the pharmacokinetics of immunosuppressive drug tacrolimus in different studies was conflicting. So a meta-analysis was employed to study the correlation of ABCB1 C3435T SNP and the pharmacokinetics of tacrolimus at different post-transplantation times.Several studies about ABCB1 C3435T polymorphism and the pharmacokinetics of tacrolimus were collected through the...
The isolation and characterization of AcSERK2, another somatic embryogenesis receptor-like kinase (SERK) gene homolog, confirmed that there was a SERK gene family in pineapple. AcSERK2 shared high similarity to AcSERK1 and other SERKs, containing all the characteristic domains of the SERK family. The expressed recombinant protein of pET-AcSERK2 was soluble. AcSERK2 expression was effectively induced...
As genome sequences of many organisms - including humans - are being decoded, there is a great need for genetic tools to analyze newly discovered genes/proteins. A 'unigenic evolution' approach has been previously proposed for dissecting protein domains, which is based on the assumption that functionally important regions of a protein may tolerate missense mutations less well than other regions. We...
