Polimorfismos del gen MIF (-794CATT5-8 y -173G>C) en pacientes con esclerosis sistémica: asociación con la expresión de MIF-CD74 y la respuesta Th1/Th2/Th17
(Universidad Autónoma de Guerrero (México), 2019-03)
The macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) is a pleiotropic cytokine with proinflammatory functions that seems to be involved in the pathogenesis of systemic sclerosis (SSc). The role of MIF polymorphisms, its ...
miR-23b as a potential tumor suppressor and its regulation by DNA methylation in cervical cancer
(Infectious Agents and Cancer, 2015)
The aberrant expression of miR-23b is involved in the development and progression of cancer. The aim of this study was to evaluate the potential role of methylation in the silencing of miR-23b in cervical cancer celllines ...
The gerW protein Is not involved in the germination of spores of bacillus species
(PLoS ONE, 2015-03-19)
Germination of dormant spores of Bacillus species is initiated when nutrient germinants bind to germinant receptors in spores' inner membrane and this interaction triggers the reléase of dipicolinic acid and cations from ...
DNMT3B modulates the expression of cancer-related genes and downregulates the expression of the gene VAV3 via methylation
(American Journal of Cancer Research, 2017)
Altered promoter DNA methylation is one of the most important epigenetic abnormalities in human cancer. DNMT3B, de novo methyltransferase, is clearly related to abnormal methylation of tumour suppressor genes, DNA repair ...
The effects of heat activation on bacillus spore germination, with nutrients or under high pressure, with or without various germination proteins
(Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 2015-02-13)
Nutrient germination of spores of Bacillus species occurs through germinant receptors (GRs) in spores'inner membrane (IM) in a process stimulated by sublethal heat activation. Bacillus subtilis spores maximum germination ...
Polymorphisms in the LPL and CETP genes and haplotype in the ESR1 gene are associated with metabolic syndrome in women from Southwestern México
(International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2015-09-08)
Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is a combination of metabolic disorders associated with an increased risk for cardiovascular disease (CVD). Studies in women reported associations between polymorphisms in ESR1, LPL and CETP genes ...
Effects of sporulation conditions on the germination and germination protein levels of bacillus subtilis spores
(Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 2012-02-10)
Bacillus subtilis spores prepared in rich medium germinated faster with nutrient germinants than poor-medium spores as populations in liquid and multiple individual spores on a microscope slide. Poor-medium spores had ...
Macrophage migration inhibitory factor promoter polymorphisms (-794 CATT5 and -173 G>C): relationship with mRNA expression and soluble MIF levels in young obese subjects
(Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2015-03-30)
We analyzed the relationship of -794 CATT5 and -173 G>C MIF polymorphisms with mRNA and soluble MIF in young obese. A total of 250 young subjects, 150 normal-weight and 100 obese subjects, were recruited in the study. ...
Correlation of leptin and soluble leptin receptor levels with anthropometric parameters in mother-newborn pairs
(International Journal of Clinical and Experimental Medicine, 2015-07-30)
The aim of this study was to investigate if anthropometric parameters are associated with both leptin and soluble leptin receptor (sLEPR) levels in newborns and their mothers. This cross-sectional study was performed in ...
Modulación de los niveles de receptores germinantes y su efecto sobre la germinación de bacillus subtilis
(Universidad Autónoma de Guerrero (México), 2013-08)
The spores of Bacillus species are extremely resistant to a variety of treatments and when they germinate are the cause of the decomposition of food and diseases produced by them. Germination begins with the presence and ...
