Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGenetic Mutation Assessment of NPM1 Gene and Gene Expression of MDR1 in Iraqi Patients with Acute Myeloid LeukemiaAhmed Abduljabbar Suleiman, Ali Zaid Al-Saffar, Tamadher Abbas Rafaa, Hasan Abdulwahab JwadSince its discovery, mutations in NPM1 have been frequently associated with a large number of Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) patients. The vast majority of genetic changes were previously detected in exon 12, however little information report mutations in Nuclear Export Signal region (NES) of NPM1. Sequencing analysis included exon 2 and 3 for 75 Iraqi AML patients showed three SNPs, … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 1 · 11 Jan 2018 · 7,782 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBioactive Compounds from Sponge Associated Bacteria: Anticancer Activity and NRPS-PKS Gene Expression in Different Carbon SourcesJepri Agung Priyanto, Rika Indri Astuti, Jun Nomura, Aris Tri WahyudiSponge associated bacteria with diverse NRPS-PKS genes could be the alternative source of bioactive compounds. This study aimed to analyze the activity as well as the regulatory mechanism regarding the anticancer properties derived from these bacteria against cancer cell lines. Extraction of bacterial metabolites using ethyl acetate solvent resulted yield ranging from 0.003 to 0.016% (w/v). Six extracts of bacterial … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 13, Issue 4 · 5 Oct 2017 · 8,886 accessesView PDF Cite

EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractFocalize the Structure of Myd88 in TLR Signaling Pathway to Modulate Innate Immune Response: New Target for Old DiseasesShuai Xing, Ping ZhouAll diseases have their Achilles’ Heel to target and this is especially true for immunorelated diseases which must be treated by targeting the immune system somewhere and somehow correctly. In the most recent decade, immunologists recognized that the Toll-Like Receptor (TLR) signaling pathway in innate immune system plays a double-edged role in the pathogenesis of many notorious diseases. Although the … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 13, Issue 3 · 6 Sep 2017 · 7,862 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRecognition of Faces using Efficient Multiscale Local Binary Pattern and Kernel Discriminant Analysis in Varying EnvironmentSujata G. Bhele, V.H. MankarFace recognition involves matching face images with different environmental conditions. Matching face images with different environmental conditions is not a easy task. Also matching face images considering variations such as changing illumination, pose, facial expression and that with uncontrolled conditions becomes more difficult. This paper focuses on accurately recognizing face images considering all the above variations. The proposed system is … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 3 · 31 Aug 2017 · 8,132 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Pre-Slaughter Autophagic Status on Postmortem Proteolysis in Skeletal Muscle of MiceTomonori Nakanishi, Miho Yamashita, Naoto Nishimoto et al.Post mortem proteolysis is a key event during the aging process, where muscle converts to meat. However, its precise mechanism remains unclear. In this study, the effects of pre-slaughter autophagic status on post mortem proteolysis were investigated using mouse skeletal muscle. Mice were fasted for 14 h and administered with or without the autophagy inhibitor wortmannin, whereas control mice were … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 2 · 10 Jul 2017 · 7,988 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStudying Interrelation of PDLIM4 with the Model of CD74-Mediated Development of Breast CancerDmitry Sergeevich Kravchenko, Yuriy Nikolaevich Lezhnin, Anna Evgenyevna Ivanova et al.Mammary gland tumors are often characterized by deregulation of RIL/PDLIM4 expression, however, PDLIM4-mediated mechanisms of cancer development still remain unknown. The aim of our research was to study the influence of PDLIM4-deregulation on transcript me changes of malignized cells. We performed а comparative NGS-analysis of breast cancer cell lines with suppressed and induced expression of PDLIM4 and identified a number … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 2 · 3 Jun 2017 · 7,419 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Adding Cellulose on Lipid Accumulation in Cellobiohydrolase and Delta-6 Desaturase Engineered Mucor circinelloides StrainsYao Zhang, Yanxia Wang et al.Despite microbial production of multifunctional gamma-linolenic acid (GLA) being an important and promising way, the high cost is still a major factor limiting industrial applications. Previously, we proposed a novel approach to promote the production of GLA from cellulose, a widely available and cheapest resource, by overexpression of the cellobiohydrolase (CBH2) and delta-6 desaturase (D6) in Mucor circinelloides. In the … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 19, Issue 3 · 13 Oct 2023 · 4,731 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIdentification and Characterization of Diacylglycerol Acyltransferase in Oleaginous Yeast Rhodosporidium toruloidesZhen Wang, Huaiyuan Zhang, Lina Zhao, Yuanda SongDiacylglycerol acyltransferase (DGAT), which catalyzes TAG formation from DAG and acyl-CoA, has been considered to play a vital role in TAG accumulation in oleaginous microorganisms. The genome of oleaginous yeast Rhodosporidium toruloides contains two putative DGAT genes, RtDGATa and RtDGATb, which shared little conserved amino acid coding sequence with each other. Phylogeny tree analysis showed that RtDGATa belonged to DGAT1 … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 12, Issue 4 · 17 Oct 2016 · 7,387 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCpG Oligodeoxynucleotides Debate the Damaging Action of Cisplatin on Immune Cell DNA: A PCR Array Application on Repair Genes ExpressionNaglaa Fathy Alhusseini, Amal Abo El-Fadl, Shabaan Hemada et al.Synthetic Oligodeoxynucleotides (ODN) expressing CpG motifs (CpG-ODN) mimic the immunostimulatory activity of bacterial DNA and are commonly used to activate Toll Like Receptor 9 (TLR9) for therapeutic applications. CpG-ODN can counteract the activity of DNA-damaging chemotherapy and radiation therapy on immune cell and enhance immunity in preclinical mouse models. We hypothesized that these actions of CpG-ODN on immune cells are … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 12, Issue 3 · 27 Jul 2016 · 7,625 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGene Expression Profiling of Toll-Like Receptor 4 and 5 in Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells of Patients with Systemic SclerosisSimin Almasi, Saeed Aslani, Hadi Poormoghim et al.The Toll-Like Receptor (TLR) family is appeared to be expressed in many cell types in the immune system and plays a role in the pathogenesis of various autoimmune diseases.
