Primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) is a chronic, progressive autoimmune disorder of the bile duct1,2,3. Individuals with PSC are at risk of severe liver problems including a lifetime risk of cholangiocarcinoma of between 5 and 20%4. PSC is often associated with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD...
In N. vitripennis venom, two types of esterases have been found: an arylsulfatases B isoform X1 and a carboxylesterase clade B member 2 p recursor30. In T. sinensis venom, seven carboxylesterases were identified by the proteomic approach and seven by the transcriptomic one. Lipases, which ...
In more caudal structures, such as the intestine and lower urinary tract, our Sox10-cre BAC transgene appears to be more efficient in labeling neural crest-derived cell types than Wnt1-cre. The analysis reveals consistent expression of Sox10 in non-neural crest derived glandular epithelium, ...
Transcriptome profiling data showed that SmHMGR1 was constitutively highly expressed in all four tissues, while the other three genes all displayed differential expression patterns (Fig. 7b). Although the exact function of each HMGR gene is not clear in S. mussotii, we can speculate that HMG...
