Abstract:
Reduction/oxidation (redox) balance is a critical component of cell viability. When oxidants reach levels that overcome the ability of antioxidants to eliminate them, it results in damage to cellular macromolecules. The damage to DNA, lipids and protein initiates a cascade of physiological events in response to the oxidative stress. Researchers have been studying these cellular responses by analyzing gene expression and protein activity for many years. Recently, new technologies have emerged that allow scientists to analyze the differential expression of extremely large sets of genes in respon

Health authorities recommend that the general population consume two to three fatty fish meals per week (1) for optimal health and for the prevention of cardiovascular disease. However, some modern Western societies consume only modest amounts of fish and seafood (2;3). Land based vegetable oils may provide an alternative to meet the

This study showed that dihydroceramide and ceramide increased the expression of cytochrome (CYP) P450 when HepG2 cells were exposed to 3-methylcholanthrene (MC).

CYP1A1, the first P450 isoform to be named, is responsible for the metabolism and biotransformation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH). 3-methylcholanthrene, an extremely hazardous PAH, has been shown to induce the CYP1A1 gene through the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR

Abstract:
Retinoic acid (RA), a bioactive metabolite of vitamin A, inhibits growth in a variety of cancer cells including liver cancer. It is thought that this function of RA is achieved by modulating gene expression through complexing with retinoic acid receptors (RARs) and retinoid X receptors (RXRs), two groups of zinc-finger proteins. Zinc deficiency has been shown to affect gene expression and to impair DNA binding ability of zinc-finger proteins. The hypotheses of my thesis research were: 1) sufficient cellular zinc level is important for the effectiveness of RA-induced growth inhibition in hepa

In HepG2 cells (a human hepatoma cell line), it has been established previously in this laboratory that 3-methylcholanthrene (MC), a PAH, induces CYP1A1 activity 20 to 30 fold over control values.

碩士<br>臺灣大學<br>解剖學暨生物細胞學研究所<br>95<br>An acidic extracellular pH (pHe) is a feature of the tumor microenvironment and increases tumor invasion. However, little attention has been paid to the role of adherens junctions (AJs) in acidic pHe-induced cell invasion. We hypothesized that an acidic pHe may increase cell migration by disruption of the AJ via modulation of cell-cell adhesion molecules. Our results showed that incubation of HepG2 cells in acidic medium (pH 6.6) induced a phenotypic change from tight cell clusters to dispersed cells with a flattened morphology and this change was accompanie

Nevertheless, little is known about the retrograde signaling in mammalian system. Many years ago, Dr. Warburg proposed a link between defects in mitochondrial physiology and tumorigenesis. After that, the relationship between mitochondria and cancer was further investigated. Recently, somatic mutations and reduced copy number of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) have been found in m

In our previous studies, purified astragalosides AS4 and AA were shown to enhance glucose uptake in Caco-2 intestine cells. In addition, these compounds also enhanced energy production by significantly increasing the intracellular level of ATP in HepG2 hepatic cells.

In this study, we used comet assay to determine that 4-ABP (0–300 M) induces DNA damage in HepG2 cells after 24 hours. DNA damage signaling pathway-based PCR arrays were used to investigate differential expressed genes response to 4-ABP treatment.
