Long non-coding RNA PVT1 as a novel candidate for targeted therapy in hematologic malignancies.

Cancerous cells show resistance to various forms of therapy, so applying up to the minute targeted therapy is crucial. For this purpose, long non-coding RNA PVT1 as shown by recent studies is an important oncogene that interacts with vital cellular signaling pathways and different proteins such as c-Myc, NOP2 and LATS2. Due to the enormous role of long non-coding RNAs in development of leukemias, we aimed to show the role of PVT1 knock-down on fate of different hematologic cell lines.

Isolation, Cloning and High- Level Expression of Neutrophil Gelatinase-Associated Lipocalin Lipocalin2 by Baculovirus Expression System through Gateway Technology.

Objectives: Lipocalin 2 (Lcn2) is a 25-kDa glycoprotein that has initially been extracted from neutrophil granules. Expression of Lcn2 is induced under various pathophysiological conditions. It is also known as an early marker of kidney and heart injury.
