Mutation of MTF in Arabidopsis increases Agrobacterium-mediated transformation susceptibility. Being a putative transcription factor, different genes controlling transformation may be regulated by MTF.
Cytokinins secreted by Agrobacterium promote transformation by repressing a plant myb transcription factor.

View SamplesThe rediscovery of estrogen receptor (ESR1) mutations in metastatic breast cancer is current clinical scenario. We have modeled the three most frequent ESR1 mutations using stable lentiviral vectors in human breast cancer cell lines, and determined that they confer relative resistance to tamoxifen (Tam) in a cell-type specific manner due to distinct epigenetic changes. Resistance was only observed with concomitant engagement and activation of the insulin growth factor signaling pathway (IGF1R). The ESR1 mutants also exhibited enhanced binding with insulin growth factor receptor beta (IGF1R). The selective estrogen degrader, fulvestrant, significantly reduced the anchorage-independent growth of ESR1 mutant-expressing cells, while the combination treatment with the mTOR inhibitor everolimus, restored Tam sensitivity. Since we detected relatively high frequencies of these three mutations in primary breast tumors, our results suggest that clinical targeted sequencing of both primary and metastatic tumors may be justified and comination therapies considered.
ESR1 mutations affect anti-proliferative responses to tamoxifen through enhanced cross-talk with IGF signaling.

View SamplesObjective: An intronic GGGGCC-repeat expansion of C9ORF72 is the most common genetic variant of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and frontotemporal dementia. The mechanism of neurodegeneration is unknown, but a direct effect on RNA processing mediated by RNA foci transcribed from the repeat sequence has been proposed.

View SamplesHuman peripheral blood mononuclear cells were cultured in presence of H37Ra strain at 37oC, 5%CO2. Cellular aggregates were collected at 24h, and RNA extracted and hybridized to Affymetrix microarrays (HG-U133). Raw data from microarray experiments was analyzed with dCHIP and SAM programs to determine the significance of changes at the biological context.
