The novel G-quadruplex-containing long non-coding RNA GSEC antagonizes DHX36 and modulates colon cancer cell migration

Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are frequently dysregulated in a variety of human cancers. However, their biological roles in these cancers remain incompletely understood. In this study, we analyze the gene exp...

Expression of dystroglycan complex in satellite cells of dorsal root ganglia

In Schwann cells, the transmembrane glycoprotein β-dystroglycan composes the dystroglycan complex together with the extracellular glycoprotein α-dystroglycan, which binds laminin-2 (α2/β1/γ1), a major compone...

The majority of bullous pemphigoid and herpes gestationis serum samples react with the NC16a domain of the 180-kDa bullous pemphigoid antigen

A series of previous studies have indicated that the NC16a domain of the 180-kDa bullous pemphigoid antigen (BP180) is the most immunogenic and probably pathogenic region in both bullous pemphigoid and herpes ...

MRI of vertebrobasilar disecting aneurysms: diagnostic value and pitfalls of spin-echo sequences

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) features of 12 cases with vertebrobasilar dissecting aneurysms (VBDA) were compared with those of 80 cases with nondissecting aneurysms (NDA). Seven patients with VBDA showed a...
