Over the last decade, a growing number of tumor suppressor genes have been discovered
to play a role in tumorigenesis. Mutations of p53 have been found in hematological …

The effect of some flavonoids, which are components of fruits, vegetables, and peas, on the
cell cycle progression of human LNCaP prostate cancer cells has been investigated in this …

Previously, we described that embryonic day 14.5 (E14. 5) mouse fetal hepatocytes
differentiate to express tyrosine amino transferase (TAT) and glucose-6-phosphatase, which …

Mixed lineage kinases (MLKs) are MAPKKK members that activate JNK and reportedly lead
to cell death. However, the agonist (s) that regulate MLK activity remain unknown. Here, we …

The sequence of biochemical and molecular events associated with decidualization in the
primate remain unclear. In the baboon, the sequential changes during this period in vivo are …

The transcription factor C/EBPα is crucial for the differentiation of granulocytes. Conditional
expression of C/EBPα triggers neutrophilic differentiation, and C/EBPα can block 12-O …

Small hepatocytes (SHs), which are known to be hepatic progenitor cells, were isolated from
an adult rat liver. SHs in a colony sometimes change their shape from small to large and …

The differentiation of chondrocytes and of several other cell types is associated with a switch
from the α 6B to the α 6A isoform of the laminin α 6 β 1 integrin receptor. To define whether …

The extracellular matrix (ECM) plays an important role in cell differentiation and apoptosis.
Collagen is the major component of ECM. Here, an ESR signal of the hydroxyl radicals …

Disclosed are methods, nucleic acids, and cells for expressing an exogenous gene in a
mammalian cell, involving introducing into the cell a non-mammalian DNA virus (eg, a …
