To identify itch-related mediators and receptors that are differentially expressed in pruritic skin, we used RNA sequencing to analyze the complete transcriptome in skin from paired itchy, lesional and nonitchy...
Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is caused by insufficient levels of survival motor neuron (SMN) protein. Recently, we found that sodium 4-phenylbutyrate (PB), a well-tolerated FDA approved drug, enhances SMN gene expression in vitro.
Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is caused by deletion or mutation of both copies of the SMN1 gene, which produces an essential protein known as SMN. The severity of SMA is modified by variable copy number of a second gene, SMN2...
The inherited motor neuron disease spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is caused by mutation of the telomeric survival motor neuron 1 (SMN1) gene with retention of the centromeric SMN2 gene. We sought to establish whether...
Programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1), inducing T cell exhaustion to facilitate immune escape of tumor cells, is upregulated by interleukin 6 (IL-6) in T cell lymphoma and ovarian cancer. The purpose of this study is to investigate the expression of IL-6 and PD-L1 in thyroid cancer, and whether IL-6 regulates PD-L1 expression.
Guselkumab is an antibody designed to bind to the p19 subunit of interleukin-23 (IL-23). Detailed studies of affected skin in patients with psoriasis demonstrated that guselkumab induced significant changes in the cellular, cytokine and gene expression profiles of psoriatic lesions accompanied by significant changes in clinical measures of disease activity.
Purpose: The main objective of our study was to explore changes in the expression levels of differentially expressed genes associated with prostate cancer progression and to design a series of experiments to verify the function of...
Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is caused by loss of the survival motor neuron 1 gene (SMN1) and retention of the SMN2 gene, resulting in reduced SMN. SMA mice can be rescued with high expression of SMN in neurons, but when...
T helper 17 (TH17) cells and interleukin-17A (IL-17A) produced by them are critical in autoinflammatory diseases, such as psoriasis.
To explore interleukin-17 (IL-17) and its epigenetic regulation during the progression of chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection.
