An emerging model views gene regulation as a competition for regulatory sequences between transcription factors and nucleosomes at thermodynamic equilibrium. A computational model of the DNA affinity of nucleosomes was recently developed allowing to predic ...
Purpose. The potential of stem cells (SCs) as a source for cell-based therapy on a wide range of degenerative diseases and damaged tissues such as retinal degeneration has been recognized. Generation of a high number of retinal stem cells (RSCs) in vitro w ...
Novel alpha-mannosidase inhibitors of the type (2R,3R,4S)-2-({[(1R)-2- hydroxy-1-arylethyl]amine}methyl) pyrrolidine-3,4-diol have been prepared and assayed for their anticancer activities. Compound 30 with the aryl group = 4-trifluoromethylbiphenyl inhibi ...
Conditionally immortalized human cells are valuable substrates for basic biologic studies, as well as for the production of specific proteins and for the creation of bioartificial organs. We previously demonstrated that the lentivector-mediated transductio ...
Therapy‐resistant tumor cells often display EMT and stem cell‐like traits. The canonical Wnt pathway has been associated with these phenotypes in many cancer types. Our group has shown in mice that two proteins of this pathway, Bcl9 and Bcl9l, participate ...
Gamma-secretase is an unconventional aspartyl protease that processes many type 1 membrane proteins within the lipid bilayer. Because its cleavage of amyloid-beta precursor protein generates the amyloid-beta protein (Abeta) of Alzheimer's disease, partiall ...
