Open AccessMatrix Gla Protein drives stemness and tumor initiation in ovarian cancer
Ovarian cancer (OC) displays the highest mortality among gynecological tumors, mainly due to early peritoneal dissemination, the high frequency of tumor relapse following primary debulking, and the development...

Open AccessC2238/αANP modulates apolipoprotein E through Egr-1/miR199a in vascular smooth muscle cells in vitro
Subjects carrying the T2238C ANP gene variant have a higher risk to suffer a stroke or myocardial infarction. The mechanisms through which T2238C/αANP exerts detrimental vascular effects need to be fully clarifie...

Comparative analysis of expressed sequence tags from tissues in ripening stages of peach (Prunus persica L. Batsch)
Expressed sequence tag (EST) represents a resource for gene discovery, genome annotation and comparative genomics in plants. ESTs were derived by sequencing clones from five libraries created from two differen...

A morphological study of the expression of the small G protein RhoA in resting and activated MDCK cells
The small G protein Rho subfamily controls several cellular events such as growth, movement, proliferation and differentiation by rearranging actin and cytoskeleton proteins. Most of these effects are mediate...

Phytoplankton and particulate matter at the Weddell / Scotia Confluence (47°W) in summer 1989, as a final step of a temporal succession (EPOS project)
During January 1989, phytoplankton biomass and species composition were studied in a north / south transect at the Weddell / Scotia Confluence (47°W), between 57° and 61°30′S. Results showed a diatom bloom in...

Expression of multidrug resistance (mdr) gene(s) in primary lymphoid organs of chicken immune system during embryonic development
The presence of a multidrug resistance (MDR) related protein, P-170, in normal and pathological lymphoid cells has been described. The present report evaluates the expression of themdr 1 gene by using the reverse...

Phytoplankton distribution in relation to sea ice, hydrography and nutrients in the northwestern Weddell Sea in early spring 1988 during EPOS
Phytoplankton biomass and distribution of major phytoplankton groups were investigated in relation to sea ice conditions, hydrography and nutrients along three north-south transects in the north western Weddel...

Distribution of the 1,25 dihydroxy-vitamin D3 receptor in the bursa of Fabricius of chicken
The vitamin D3 metabolite 1,25(OH)2D3 is probably involved in B lymphocyte ontogeny. We therefore determined the distribution of the 1,25(OH)2D3 receptor in the bursa of Fabricius and spleen cells of 7-day-old ch...

In vitro morphological characterization of the bursal reticuloepithelial (REp) cells of chicken
The REp cells of the bursa follicle medulla of chicken were isolated in vitro. Culture of the REp cells was maintained over a period of 10 days and the cells were observed at 3 and 10 days by means of transmis...

Article
Genetic analysis of instability inPetunia hybrida
InPetunia hybrida frequent mutations of unstable alleles give rise to different types of periclinal chimeras. If genes expressed in the epidermis, such as the geneAn1 for flower colour, are concerned, mutations i...

Article
Genetics of the peroxidase isoenzymes in Petunia
Antibodies were raised against the peroxidases encoded by the allele prxA1 to determine the specific activities of the peroxidases encoded by the alleles prxA1, prxA2, prxA3, and prxA5. The results from double di...

Article
Genetics of the peroxidase isoenzymes in Petunia
Two alleles of the structural gene prxA from Petunia, prxA6 and prxA7, could be identified by their differential temporal expression. The alleles prxA6 and prxA7 code for peroxidases with a similar electrophoreti...

Article
Genetics of the peroxidase isoenzymes in Petunia
In root and flower corolla tissue of Petunia several anodic moving peroxidase isoenzymes are present, which cannot be detected in other organs. Alleles of the gene prxF control the presence or absence of several ...

Article
Genetic analysis of instability in Petunia hybrida
A hypothesis is proposed to interpret the results of crossing experiments with unstable mutants of Petunia hybrida having variegated flowers and showing variation in the colour intensity and the degree of spottin...

Article
Genetic analysis of instability in Petunia hybrida
In crossing experiments with Petunia hybrida, new mutations, some unstable, have been found in descendants of plants having an unstable allele of the anthocyanin gene An1. One of the unstable mutations affecting ...

Article
Genetics of the peroxidase isoenzymes in Petunia
In Petunia four alleles of the gene prxB could be identified by starch gel electrophoresis. Investigation of PRXb allozyme balance during development of tissue and plant of prxB heterozygotes showed differential ...

Article
Genetics of the peroxidase isoenzymes in Petunia
In P. hybrida and the putative progenitor species P. axillaris s. l. and P. integrifolia s. l. five mobility alleles of the structural gene prxA were found. The five alleles show differential expression during de...

A gene controlling rate of anthocyanin synthesis and mutation frequency of the gene An1 in Petunia hybrida
The difference in colour intensity between flowers of sporogenic revertants of the white flowering lines W17 and W28 is caused by an incompletely dominant gene Inl. This gene is not linked to the anthocyanin gene...
