Fishing anti(lymph)angiogenic drugs with zebrafish
(2018-10-19)Zebrafish, an amenable small teleost fish with a complex mammal-like circulatory system, is being increasingly used for drug screening and toxicity studies. It combines the biological complexity of in vivo models with a ... -
Functional Analysis of TM6 MADS-box gene in the Octoploid Strawberry by CRISPR/Cas9 directed mutagenesis
(Oxford University Press, 2019-01)The B-class of MADS-box transcription factors has been studied in many plant species, but remains functionally unchar- acterized in Rosaceae. APETALA3 (AP3), a member of this class, controls petal and stamen identities in ... -
Functional Analysis of TM6 MADS-box gene in the Octoploid Strawberry by CRISPR/Cas9 directed mutagenesis
(bioRxiv, 2018-06-20)The B-class of MADS-box transcription factors has been studied in many plant species, but remain functionally uncharacterized in the Rosaceae family. APETALA3 (AP3), a member of this class, controls the identity of petals ... -
Gene expression atlas of fruit ripening and transcriptome assembly from RNA-seq data in octoploid strawberry (Fragaria × ananassa)
(Springer Nature, 2017-10-23)RNA-seq has been used to perform global expression analysis of the achene and the receptacle at four stages of fruit ripening, and of the roots and leaves of strawberry (Fragaria × ananassa). About 967 million reads and ... -
Gene-specific translation regulation mediated by the hormone-signaling molecule EIN2
(ELSEVIER, 2015-10-22)The central role of translation in modulating gene activity has long been recognized, yet the systematic exploration of quantitative changes in translation at a genome-wide scale in response to a specific stimulus has only ... -
Generation and analysis of ESTs from strawberry (Fragaria xananassa) fruits and evaluation of their utility in genetic and molecular studies
(BMC, 2010-09-17)Cultivated strawberry is a octoploid species whose fruit is highly appreciated due to its organoleptic properties and health benefits. However, information about the role played by different hormones on these processes ... -
Genome Editing as a Tool for Fruit Ripening Manipulation
(Frontiers, 2018-09-25)Over the last few years, a series of tools for genome editing have been developed, allowing the introduction of precise changes into plant genomes. These have included Zinc-finger nucleases (ZFNs), transcription activator-like ... -
GLS and GLS2 Glutaminase Isoenzymes in the Antioxidant System of Cancer Cells.
(MDPI, 2024-06-20)A pathway frequently altered in cancer is glutaminolysis, whereby glutaminase (GA) catalyzes the main step as follows: the deamidation of glutamine to form glutamate and ammonium. There are two types of GA isozymes, named ... -
Glutaminase and MMP-9 Downregulation in Cortex and Hippocampus of LPA1 Receptor Null Mice Correlate with Altered Dendritic Spine Plasticity
(Frontiers, 2017-09-05)Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) is an extracellular lipid mediator that regulates nervous system development and functions acting through G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). Here we explore the crosstalk between LPA1 receptor ... -
Glutaminase isoforms expression switches microRNA levels and oxidative status in glioblastoma cells.
(BMC, 2021-02-20)Glutaminase isoenzymes GLS and GLS2 play apparently opposing roles in cancer: GLS acts as an oncoprotein, while GLS2 (GAB isoform) has context specific tumour suppressive activity. Some microRNAs (miRNAs) have been implicated ... -
High Levels of Variation Within Gene Sequences of Olea europaea L.
(Frontiers Media, 2019-01-08)Gene sequence variation in cultivated olive (Olea europaea L. subsp. europaea var. europaea), the most important oil tree crop of the Mediterranean basin, has been poorly evaluated up to now. A deep sequence analysis of ... -
Hydroxytyrosol targets extracellular matrix remodeling by endothelial cells and inhibits both ex vivo and in vivo angiogenesis
(Elsevier, 2017-04)The health benefits of olive oil are attributed to their bioactive compounds, such as hydroxytyrosol. Previously, we demonstrated that hydroxytyrosol inhibits angiogenesis in vitro. The present study aimed to: i) get further ... -
Inhibition of Endothelial Inflammatory Response by HT-C6, a Hydroxytyrosol Alkyl Ether Derivative.
(MDPI, 2023-07-28)Hydroxytyrosol (HT) is a bioactive phenolic compound naturally present in olives and extra virgin olive oil (EVOO) which is described as an antioxidant, antitumoral and antiangiogenic molecule. Previous studies of ... -
Insights into ROS‐dependent signalling underlying transcriptomic plant responses to the herbicide 2,4‐D
(Plant Cell & Environment, 2022)The synthetic auxin 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) functions as an agronomic weed control herbicide. High concentrations of 2,4-D induce plant growth defects, particularly leaf epinasty and stem curvature. Although ... -
Integrating differential expression, co-expression and gene network analysis for the identification of common genes associated with tumor angiogenesis deregulation
(Elsevier, 2023)Angiogenesis is essential for tumor growth and cancer metastasis. Identifying the molecular pathways involved in this process is the first step in the rational design of new therapeutic strategies to improve cancer treatment. ... -
Isolation, characterization, and localization of AgaSGNH cDNA: a new SGNH-motif plant hydrolase specific to Agave americana L. leaf epidermis.
(Oxford University Press, 2007-07-03)GDSL and SGNH hydrolases are lipases involved in a wide range of functions, behaving in many cases as bifunctional enzymes. In this work, the isolation and characterization of AgaSGNH, a cDNA encoding a member of the ... -
KinFams: De-Novo Classification of Protein Kinases Using CATH Functional Units
(IOAP-MDPI, 2023-02-02)Protein kinases are important targets for treating human disorders, and they are the second most targeted families after G-protein coupled receptors. Several resources provide classification of kinases into evolutionary ... -
Lipid droplet degradation by autophagy connects mitochondria metabolism to Prox1-driven expression of lymphatic genes and lymphangiogenesis.
