An experimental study of the effects of SNPs in the TATA boxes of the <i>GRIN1, ASCL3</i> and <i>NOS1</i> genes on interactions with the TATA-binding protein by E. B. Sharypova, I. A. Drachkova, I. V. Chadaeva, M. P. Ponomarenko, L. K. Savinkova

“…Our experimental results are consistent with the literature showing GRIN1 underexpression in schizophrenic disorders as well as an increased risk of cervical, bladder, and kidney cancers and lymphoma during ASCL3 underexpression. The effect of allele A of the –27G&gt;A SNP (rs1195040887) in the NOS1 promoter is suggestive of an increased risk of ischemic damage to the brain in carriers. …”

Preferential Expression of B7-H6 in Glioma Stem-Like Cells Enhances Tumor Cell Proliferation via the c-Myc/RNMT Axis by Hanqing Chen, Yundi Guo, Jing Sun, Jun Dong, Qinghua Bao, Xueguang Zhang, Fengqing Fu

“…Moreover, we determined that three genes CBL (Casitas B-Lineage Lymphoma Proto-Oncogene), CCNT1 (Cyclin T1), and RNMT (RNA guanine-7 methyltransferase) were coexpressed with B7-H6 and c-myc in glioma tissue samples from the TCGA database and found, however that only RNMT expression was inhibited by the knockdown of B7-H6 expression in the GSLCs, suggesting the involvement of RNMT in the B7-H6/c-myc axis. …”

Anesthetic Isoflurane Posttreatment Attenuates Experimental Lung Injury by Inhibiting Inflammation and Apoptosis by Jun-tang Li, Hui Wang, Wei Li, Li-feng Wang, Li-chao Hou, Jing-lan Mu, Xin Liu, Hui-juan Chen, Ke-lang Xie, Nan-lin Li, Chun-fang Gao

“…Moreover, ISO markedly prevented ZY-induced pulmonary cell apoptosis in mice, as reflected by the decrease in expression of procaspase-8, procaspase-3, cleaved caspase-8, and cleaved caspase-3, as well as in caspase-3 activity and Bcl-2-associated X/B-cell lymphoma 2 ratio. These results indicate that ISO is a potential therapeutic drug for treating ZY-induced lung injury, and further investigations are warranted.…”
