Colon cancer associated transcript-1 (CCAT1) expression in adenocarcinoma of the stomach

Mizrahi, I.; Mazeh, H.; Grinbaum, R.; Beglaibter, N.; Wilschanski, M.; Pavlov, V.; Adileh, M.; Stojadinovic, A.; Avital, I.; Gure, A. O.; Halle, D.; Nissan, A. (Ivyspring International Publisher, 2015)

Background: Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been shown to have functional roles in cancer biology and are dys-regulated in many tumors. Colon Cancer Associated Transcript -1 (CCAT1) is a lncRNA, previously shown to be ...

Genetic analysis of MEFV gene pyrin domain in patients with Behçet's disease

Dursun, A.; Durakbasi-Dursun, H. G.; Zamani, A. G.; Gulbahar, Z. G.; Dursun, R.; Yakicier, C. (Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2006)

Objectives. Behçet's disease (BD) is a systemic vasculitis with recurrent oral and genital ulcers and uveitis. MEFV gene, which is the main factor in familial Mediterranean fever (FMF), is also reported to be a susceptibility ...

Enhanced immunostimulatory activity of cyclic dinucleotides on mouse cells when complexed with a cell-penetrating peptide or combined with CpG

Yildiz, S.; Alpdundar, E.; Gungor, B.; Kahraman, T.; Bayyurt, B.; Gursel, I.; Gursel, M. (Wiley - V C H Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, 2015)

Recognition of pathogen-derived nucleic acids by immune cells is critical for the activation of protective innate immune responses. Bacterial cyclic dinucleotides (CDNs) are small nucleic acids that are directly recognized ...

Differential expression patterns of metastasis suppressor proteins in basal cell carcinoma

Bozdogan, O.; Yulug, I. G.; Vargel, I.; Cavusoglu, T.; Karabulut, A. A.; Karahan, G.; Sayar, N. (Wiley-Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2015)

Background: Basal cell carcinomas (BCCs) are common malignant skin tumors. Despite having a significant invasion capacity, they metastasize only rarely. Our aim in this study was to detect the expression patterns of the ...

Nuclear exclusion of p33ING1b tumor suppressor protein: explored in HCC cells using a new highly specific antibody

Sayan, B.; Emre, N. C. T.; Irmak, M. B.; Ozturk, M.; Cetin Atalay, R. (Mary Ann Liebert, Inc, 2009)

Mouse monoclonal antibodies (MAb) were generated against p33ING1b tumor suppressor protein. 15B9 MAb was highly specific in recognizing a single protein band of ∼33 kDa endogenous p33ING1b protein from HCC cell lines and ...

MicroRNA-519a is a novel oncomir conferring tamoxifen resistance by targeting a network of tumour-suppressor genes in ER+ breast cancer

Ward, A.; Shukla, K.; Balwierz, A.; Soons, Z.; König, R.; Sahin, O.; Wiemann, S. (John Wiley and Sons Ltd, 2014)

Tamoxifen is an endocrine therapy which is administered to up to 70% of all breast cancer patients with oestrogen receptor alpha (ERα) expression. Despite the initial response, most patients eventually acquire resistance ...

Analysis of MYH Tyr165Cys and Gly382Asp variants in childhood leukemias

Akyerli, C. B.; Özbek, U.; Aydin-Sayitoǧlu, M.; Sirma, S.; Özçelik, T. (Springer, 2003)

Jnk1 deficiency in hematopoietic cells suppresses macrophage apoptosis and increases atherosclerosis in low-density lipoprotein receptor null mice

Babaev, V. R.; Yeung, M.; Erbay, E.; Ding, L.; Zhang, Y.; May, J. M.; Fazio, S.; Hotamisligil, G. S.; Linton, M. F. (Lippincott Williams and Wilkins, 2016)

Objective - The c-Jun NH 2 -terminal kinases (JNK) are regulated by a wide variety of cellular stresses and have been implicated in apoptotic signaling. Macrophages express 2 JNK isoforms, JNK1 and JNK2, which may have ...

Interplay between 15-lipoxygenase-1 and metastasisassociated antigen 1 in the metastatic potential of colorectal cancer

Tunçer, S.; Çağatay, T. S.; Keşküş, A. G.; Çolakoğlu, M.; Konu, Ö.; Banerjee S. (Wiley-Blackwell Publishing Ltd., 2016)

Objectives: Metastasis-associated antigen 1 (MTA1) is implicated in metastasis while 15-lipoxygenase-1 (15-LOX-1) reduces cell motility, when re-expressed in colorectal cancer (CRC). We aimed to understand any potential ...

The miR-644a/CTBP1/p53 axis suppresses drug resistance by simultaneous inhibition of cell survival and epithelialmesenchymal transition in breast cancer

Raza, U.; Saatci, O.; Uhlmann, S.; Ansari, S. A.; Eyüpoglu, E.; Yurdusev, E.; Mutlu, M.; Ersan, P. G.; Altundağ, M. K.; Zhang, J. D.; Dogan, H. T.; Güler, G.; Şahin, Ö. (Impact Journals LLC, 2016)

Tumor cells develop drug resistance which leads to recurrence and distant metastasis. MicroRNAs are key regulators of tumor pathogenesis; however, little is known whether they can sensitize cells and block metastasis ...
