Abstract

Pregnane X receptor (PXR) mRNA was detected in HepG2 cells by RT-PCR, but not in human fetal liver (HFL) cells. CYP3A4 was induced by rifampicin (RIF), mifepristone (RU486), clotrimazole (CTZ), and dexamethasone (DEX) in HepG2 cells, while these PXR ligands with the exception of DEX did not induce CYP3A4 mRNA expression in HFL cells. Ad-PXR infection increased mRNA levels of PXR and CYP3A4 in both cells despite the absence of PXR ligands. Similar results were observed in reporter gene assays. However, in HFL cells, RIF-mediated CYP3A4 induction was insufficient compared with HepG2 cells, despite PXR overexpression. The expression levels of five coactivators (HNF4α, PGC1α, SRC1, CBP, and P300) related to CYP3A4 expression in HepG2, HFL cells, and human adult liver were analyzed by RT-PCR. Expression levels of HNF4α and PGC1α in HFL cells were downregulated to 20% of those in the human adult liver. On the other hand, the expression level of HNF4α in HepG2 cells was higher than that in HFL cells, although PGC1α expression level was almost the same as that in HFL cells. HNF4α mRNA expression level in HepG2 cells was 57% of that in human adult liver, and the level in HFL cells was 30% of that in HepG2 cells. These results suggested ...Continue Reading

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.

Evolution of Pluripotency

Pluripotency refers to the ability of a cell to develop into three primary germ cell layers of the embryo. This feed focuses on the mechanisms that underlie the evolution of pluripotency. Here is the latest research.

Position Effect Variegation

Position Effect Variagation occurs when a gene is inactivated due to its positioning near heterochromatic regions within a chromosome. Discover the latest research on Position Effect Variagation here.

STING Receptor Agonists

Stimulator of IFN genes (STING) are a group of transmembrane proteins that are involved in the induction of type I interferon that is important in the innate immune response. The stimulation of STING has been an active area of research in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. Here is the latest research on STING receptor agonists.

Microbicide

Microbicides are products that can be applied to vaginal or rectal mucosal surfaces with the goal of preventing, or at least significantly reducing, the transmission of sexually transmitted infections. Here is the latest research on microbicides.
