MeCP2 Deficiency in Neuroglia: New Progress in the Pathogenesis of Rett Syndrome.

Frontiers in molecular neuroscience

Jin XR, Chen XS, Xiao L.
PMID: 29046627
Front Mol Neurosci. 2017 Oct 04;10:316. doi: 10.3389/fnmol.2017.00316. eCollection 2017.

Rett syndrome (RTT) is an X-linked neurodevelopmental disease predominantly caused by mutations of the methyl-CpG-binding protein 2 (MeCP2) gene. Generally, RTT has been attributed to neuron-centric dysfunction. However, increasing evidence has shown that glial abnormalities are also involved in...

The intermediate filament nestin is upregulated in stem/progenitor cells and cancers, and regulates cell proliferation, migration, invasion and stemness. The present study comparatively analyzed serial autopsies of Japanese patients (n=2,206; males, 1,225; females, 981; median, 80.7 years old; range,...

PMID: 30248895
Cells. 2018 Sep 21;7(10). doi: 10.3390/cells7100147.

Vimentin is a protein that has been linked to a large variety of pathophysiological conditions, including cataracts, Crohn's disease, rheumatoid arthritis, HIV and cancer. Vimentin has also been shown to regulate a wide spectrum of basic cellular functions. In...

Detection of MetastaticTumor Cells in Blood by Reverse Transcriptase-Polymerase Chain Reaction.

Methods in molecular medicine

Haack K, Soondrum K, Neumaier M.
PMID: 21340905
Methods Mol Med. 2001;57:285-95. doi: 10.1385/1-59259-136-1:285.

In oncology, the correct assessment of tumor stage is crucial information, as it relates to disease-free interval and prognosis. Routine staging modalities use histopathology to evaluate the presence or absence of metastasis mainly in tissues such as lymph nodes,...

Keratins are intermediate filament proteins expressed by epithelial cells and provide mechanical support for diverse epithelia. In our recent study (Sequeira

Distribution of label-retaining cells and their properties in the vocal fold mucosa.

Laryngoscope investigative otolaryngology

Laryngoscope Investig Otolaryngol. 2018 Nov 28;4(1):76-82. doi: 10.1002/lio2.219. eCollection 2019 Feb.

OBJECTIVE: The latest research suggests cells in the maculae flavae (MFe) are putative stem cells of the vocal fold mucosa and the MFe are a candidate for a stem cell niche. Distribution and properties of label-retaining cells (LRCs) in...

Proteome profile of spleen in rock bream (Oplegnathus fasciatus) naturally infected with rock bream iridovirus (RBIV).

Genes & genomics

Ko EJ, Kim H, Lee AR, Jeon KY, Kim A, Kim DH, Park CI, Choi YH, Kim S, Kim HS, Ock MS, Cha HJ.
PMID: 34427872
Genes Genomics. 2021 Nov;43(11):1259-1268. doi: 10.1007/s13258-021-01149-1. Epub 2021 Aug 24.

BACKGROUND: Rock bream iridovirus (RBIV) is one of the most dangerous pathogens that causes the highest mortality in the aquaculture of rock bream (Oplegnathus fasciatus). Even though RBIV infection leads to huge economic loss, proteome studies on RBIV-infected rock...
