Siglec-1 is highly expressed on circulating monocytes and plaque macrophages in atherosclerotic patients, but the exact role of Siglec-1 in atherosclerosis has not been elucidated.Lentiviral vector containing small interfering RNA targeting Siglec-1 (Lv-shSiglec-1) or control vector (Lv-shNC) were injected intravenously into 6-week old Apoe−/− mice. Then onset of atherosclerosis was observed.Siglec-1...
BACKGROUND:Although the promoter of the human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT) gene has been widely used in gene therapy for targeted cancer cells, it has some limitations for clinical use because of its low activity and potential toxicity to certain normal cells. To overcome these defects, the authors generated novel chimeric hTERT promoters that contained the radiation‐inducible sequence...
Radioresistant cells have been shown to correlate with poor outcome after radiotherapy. Here, we found that human telomerase reverse transcriptase promoter (hTERTp) had lower activity in laryngeal squamous carcinomas cells than in radioresistant variant cells. Combining radiotherapy with plasmid phTERTp-HRP, in which expression of enzyme horseradish peroxidase (HRP) controlled by hTERTp, resulted...
