Transcriptomic identification of miR-205 target genes potentially involved in metastasis and survival of cutaneous malignant melanoma
2020
AbstractCutaneous melanoma is an aggressive neoplasm and is responsible for the majority of skin cancer deaths. Several miRNAs are involved in melanoma tumor progression. One of them is miR-205, the loss of which contributes to the development of melanoma metastasis. We evaluated whole-genome mRNA expression profiling associated with different miR-205 expression levels in melanoma cells. Differential expression analysis identified 243 differentially expressed transcripts including inositol polyphosphate 5′-phosphatase-like protein-1 (INPPL1) and BTB/POZ Domain-Containing Protein 3 (BTBD3). INPPL1 and BTBD3 were downregulated when melanoma cells expressed miR-205, indicating that these genes…
Respuesta de preosteoblastos a compuestos de estroncio o calcio: proliferación, diferenciación, mineralización y respuesta génica global
2013
Fundamento: Los mecanismos que desencadenan la osteogénesis todavía no están aclarados. El objetivo de este estudio fue valorar el papel de estroncio y calcio, aportados en distinto soporte molecular, como inductores de distintos mecanismos de estímulo osteoblástico, incluyendo proliferación, diferenciación y mineralización de células preosteoblásticas. Se investigó también la respuesta global genómica con la técnica de microarray. Métodos: Se diseñó un estudio experimental con células pre-osteoblásticas murinas MC3T3-E1, que fueron estimuladas durante 3 horas y 7 días. Se realizaron estudios bioquímicos y de expresión génica del genoma de ratón (Affymetrix). Resultados: El estroncio unido …
Bifidobacterium pseudocatenulatum CECT 7765 supplementation restores altered vascular function in an experimental model of obese mice
2017
Aims. Bifidobacterium pseudocatenulatum CECT 7765 improves metabolic and immunological altered functions in high fat fed mice, however little is known about the effects of potential probiotics on vascular reactivity. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effects of a potential probiotic strain, Bifidobacterium pseudocatenulatum CECT 7765, on vascular response in obese mice. Methods. Aorta samples were obtained from mice, which were divided into three groups: a control group, receiving a standard diet; an obese group, receiving a high-fat diet; and an obese group receiving high-fat diet and a daily dose of B. pseudocatenulatum CECT 7765 by oral gavage. Aortic rings were suspend…
