The Effects of Gastrin and Hox-A1 on HT-29 Cell Proliferation
(East Carolina University, 2013)Gastrin is a gastrointestinal peptide hormone synthesized in G cells and secreted in the antrum of the stomach. Though its primary role is to stimulate the secretion of gastric acid by parietal cells, it is also involved ... -
The effects of sodium butyrate on Hox gene expression in a human colorectal adenocarcinoma cell line, HT29.
(East Carolina University, 2013)Hox genes are a subgroup of the large family of homeobox containing genes, known to pattern anterior/posterior and proximal/distal axes during embryonic development. More recently Hox gene research has focused on the role ... -
NOVEL NUCLEOLAR LOCALIZATION OF SYNAPTOPODIN-2 ISOFORM IN PROLIFERATING HT-29 CELLS
(East Carolina University, 2021-07-13)Members of the Synaptopodin family regulate [alpha]-actinin and actin-bundling activity, in an isoform specific manner (Asunama et al., 2005). The ability to affect actin polymerization and bundling highlights the critical ... -
SYNAPTOPODIN-2 ISOFORM A AND D EXPRESSION IN HT-29 HUMAN COLON ADENOCARCINOMA CELLS
