A549 has also been employed in viral research and associated protein expression changes as a consequence of viral infection. [10] Although A549 is a cancer cell line, it has also been studied for its response to tuberculosis, specifically the production of chemokines as it is induced by the invading bacteria. [11]
The Atlas is part of the genome project and participates in research on cancer epidemiology. The Atlas is accessed by: 1- researchers in cytogenetics, molecular biology, cell biology; 2- clinicians, haematologists, cytogeneticists, pathologists, from the university hospitals, indeed, but also from general hospitals where the Atlas is one of the ...
An initial release of the first atlas, the mouse brain atlas, occurred in December 2004. Subsequently, more data for this atlas was released in stages. The final genome-wide data set was released in September 2006. However, the final release of the atlas was not the end of the project; the Atlas is still being improved upon.
Studies have detected FFAR2 protein and/or its messenger RNA (an indicator of FFAR2 protein expression) in the following cell types, cell lines, and tissues: 1) human and rodent enteroendocrine K cells, i.e., cells located in the epithelium of the small intestine; 2) human and rodent enteroendocrine L cells, i.e., cells located in the epithelium of the small intestine and colon; [21] [22] [23 ...
The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) is a project to catalogue the genomic alterations responsible for cancer using genome sequencing and bioinformatics. [1] [2] The overarching goal was to apply high-throughput genome analysis techniques to improve the ability to diagnose, treat, and prevent cancer through a better understanding of the genetic basis of the disease.
A549 cells share the same characteristics with the alveolar type II cells. This are type II pneumocytes crucial for lung homeostasis, and regeneration upon damage. For research purposes to unravel different molecular mechanisms leading to lung diseases, A549 cells serves as a good model to which translational research can be relied upon.
Automated Anatomical Labeling (AAL) (or Anatomical Automatic Labeling) is a software package and digital atlas of the human brain. It is typically used in functional neuroimaging-based research to obtain neuroanatomical labels for the locations in 3-dimensional space where the measurements of some aspect of brain function were captured. In ...
Lewis lung carcinoma is a hypermutated Kras/Nras–mutant cancer with extensive regional mutation clusters in its genome. A tumor that spontaneously developed as an epidermoid carcinoma in the lung of a C57BL mouse. It was discovered in 1951 by Dr. Margaret Lewis of the Wistar Institute and became one of the first transplantable tumors. [1]
