  • Gene-expression profiling of the effects of liver toxins

    ... samples." The results emphasise the importance of 'phenotypic anchoring' – linking gene expression changes to traditional measures of toxicology. "Our results powerfully underscore the importance of ...
  • Insect gene expression responds to diet

    ... in the plant pest. She said, "Larval feeding on a bacteria-rich diet leads to substantial gene expression changes, potentially resulting in a reorganization of the insects' metabolism to ...
  • Mapping of prostate cancer genes opens the door to new treatments

    ... stem cells. Quantitative RT-PCR, flow cytometry and immunocytochemistry were used to validate the gene expression changes. Genes associated with inflammation were prominent in the cancer stem cell ...
  • New tool probes function of rice genes

    ... microarray covers nearly all the 45,000 genes in the rice genome. Details are published this week ... new rice microarray to investigate gene expression changes when plants are grown in the light versus ...
  • Real-time gene monitoring developed

    ... beauty of it is now, if GFP can be linked to any gene … you could track it over time, and you could look ... every few hours and look at the (gene) expression change. This is just running on its own," he ...
  • Study reveals how viruses collectively decide the fate of a bacterial cell

    ... the overall level of viral gene expression. Changes in viral gene expression can have a dramatic nonlinear effect on gene networks that control whether viruses burst out of the host cell or ...
  • Researchers identify another potential biomarker

    ... that smoking-dependent changes in miRNA expression levels mediate some of the smoking induced gene expression changes in airway epithelium and that miRNAs therefore play a role in the host response ...
  • Chronic drinking causes more liver injury than acute or binge drinking

    ... differ depending on the pattern of drinking. New rodent findings show that chronic drinking causes more injury - as measured by gene-expression changes - to the liver than acute or binge drinking.
  • A new dimension for genome studies

    ... DNA are transcribed and which remain silent. Furthermore, the new technique could allow researchers to study how gene expression changes as cells develop or become cancerous, says Thomas Tullius,...
