Differential Regulation of Cell Cycle Progression in Human Breast Cancer Cell Lines by the Estrogen Receptor

Book Description
Critical predictions as to the biological behavior, and thus the appropriate therapeutic strategy, of breast cancers can be made based upon the status of the estrogen receptor (ER). In support of DOD grant # DAMD-17-97-1-7069, our goal is to better understand the mechanisms by which ER controls the expression of target genes and therefore mediates the biological effects upon gene regulation and cell cycle progression. Our detailed studies of the regions of ER that control cell cycle progression in breast cancer cell lines have indicated an absolute requirement for the Activating Function-2 (AF-2) region of ER for hormone-dependent cell cycle progression. In many different classes of nuclear receptors, this area has been vigorously studied and has been shown to be important for the physical interaction between hormone bound receptors and coactivators. Our studies have demonstrated that mechanisms involving the chemical and structural modification of chromatin are critical for transcriptional responses to estrogen and may also be important for estrogen-dependent cell cycle progression.

Regulation of microRNAs
Author: Helge Großhans
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 9781441978240
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 160
Book Description
Given this pervasiveness and importance of miRNA-mediated gene regulation, it should come as little surprise that miRNAs themselves are also highly regulated. However, the recent explosion of knowledge on this topic has been remarkable, providing a primary motivation for publication of this book. As miRNAs are transcribed by RNA polymerase II, the enzyme that also generates mRNAs, it was perhaps not unexpected that miRNA transcription would be subject to regulation, and we have willfully mitted this aspect from this monograph. However, what has been unexpected is the extent of post-transcriptional regulation of miRNAs that is illustrated in this book.

Calcium Entry Channels in Non-Excitable Cells
Author: Juliusz Ashot Kozak
Publisher: CRC Press
ISBN: 149875273X
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 343
Book Description
Calcium Entry Channels in Non-Excitable Cells focuses on methods of investigating the structure and function of non-voltage gated calcium channels. Each chapter presents important discoveries in calcium entry pathways, specifically dealing with the molecular identification of store-operated calcium channels which were reviewed by earlier volumes in the Methods in Signal Transduction series. Crystallographic and pharmacological approaches to the study of calcium channels of epithelial cells are also discussed. Calcium ion is a messenger in most cell types. Whereas voltage gated calcium channels have been studied extensively, the non-voltage gated calcium entry channel genes have only been identified relatively recently. The book will fill this important niche.

Protooncogenes and Growth Factors in Steroid Hormone Induced Growth and Differentiation
Author: Sohaib A. Khan
Publisher: CRC Press
ISBN: 9780849386725
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 298
Book Description
Protooncogenes and Growth Factors in Steroid Hormone Induced Growth and Differentiation reviews current information regarding the complex nature of hormone-induced cell growth and differentiation. The contributors examine the emerging consensus that protooncogenes and growth factors mediate perhaps the most crucial steps leading to cell growth and differentiation. The primary objective of this book is to unite the status of current research related to protooncogenes and growth factors from diverse physiological systems to help readers gain a comprehensive understanding of the subject. Leading researchers have contributed outstanding chapters pertaining to steroid hormone-regulated cell growth and differentiation in normal and/or neoplastic tissues. This book will appeal to basic science researchers, clinicians, industrial researchers, and graduate students.
