The full-length pBluescript II SK cDNA library of adult Spirometra erinaceieuropaei was constructed by using the SMART method. Data showed that 95.5% of the library was recombinant and the titer of the library was 1.06 x 10(6). The average insert size of the library was about 1.4 kb. Forty-eight randomly selected clones were sequenced. A set of 36 effective expressed sequence tags (ESTs) with the average size of 674 bp was obtained after excluding clones shorter than 450 bp. The unigenes occupied 58.3% of the 36 ESTs. The rate of full-length cDNAs were 57.7% (15/26). The high-quality of full-length cDNA library could be used for large scale EST sequencing.

Cyclin-dependent kinases, CDK7 and CDK9 play critical roles in cancer by regulating transcriptional processes essential for cell proliferation and survival. Their dysregulation leads to aberrant gene expression, promoting oncogenic pathways and contributing to tumor growth and progression. This study aimed to identify a new chemotype for CDK7/9 inhibitors using a structure-based virtual screening approach.

Background: The mitochondrial translocator protein (TSPO) is a biomarker of inflammation associated with aging and Alzheimer's disease (AD). We have previously shown that TSPO plays a critical role in protective immune responses important in AD. Here we investigated the interaction between TSPO immunomodulatory function and aging in the hippocampus, a region severely affected in AD.

Background: To date, mutations in the MAPT (i.e., tau) gene within Alzheimer's disease (AD) patients are either benign or have an unclear effect on pathogenicity.
View Article and Find Full Text PDFBackground: Treatment with the RXR-specific agonist Bexarotene exerts neuroprotective effects in Alzheimer's disease (AD) mouse models by improving cognition and increasing Aβ clearance. At the transcriptional level, ligand-activated RXR receptors regulate gene networks linked to neural development, neuroinflammation, and metabolism. This study aimed to reveal the association between changes in chromatin architecture and transcriptional activity in the brain of Bexarotene-treated APP/PS1 mice.
