Effects of Cholinergic Receptor Nicotinic Alpha 5 (CHRNA5) RNAi on apoptosis, DNA damage response, drug sensitivity, and HSA-MIR-495-3P overexpression in breast cancer
(Bilkent University, 2018-12)Cholinergic Receptor Nicotinic Alpha 5 (CHRNA5) is associated with nicotine addiction and it has an important role in the prognosis of lung cancer. Despite its important cellular functions, its role in breast cancer remains ... -
Effects of depletion of CHRNA5 and/or TP53, and transient and stable overexpression of wildtype or mutant TP53 on expression of DLK1-MEG3 locus in MCF7 cells
(Bilkent University, 2022-09)The expression of CHRNA5 has a prominent role in lung cancer and nicotine addiction. Besides, depletion of CHRNA5 has been identified as being tumour suppressive in breast cancer. Moreover, CHRNA5 depletion causes increases ... -
PACT establishes a posttranscriptional brake on mitochondrial biogenesis by promoting the maturation of miR-181c
(American Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Inc., 2022-07)The double-stranded RNA-dependent protein kinase activating protein (PACT), an RNA-binding protein that is part of the RNA-induced silencing complex, plays a key role in miR-mediated translational repression. Previous ... -
Small RNA-seq dataset of wild type and 16C Nicotiana benthamiana leaves sprayed with naked dsRNA using the high-pressure spraying technique
(Elsevier Inc., 2022-12)Double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) applications have emerged as promising alternatives to chemical plant pesticides. It has been proposed that the protective effect of dsRNA is mediated by the RNA interference (RNAi) mechanism. ...
