Immunity produced when variable, diverse, and joining exons recombine and form diverse B-cell receptors. Somatic rearrangement of immunoglobulin genes termed VDJ recombination. This activity is controlled by RAG1 and RAG2 proteins, binds to the signal sequences and start cleavage. Double stranded breaks are produced by ROS, Nuclear enzymes and ATM. RAG protein induces cleavage activity. Segments exchange by CSR. After cleavage activity shuffling of segments occurs. TDT cause gain or loss of nucleotide bases. AID and RAG begins the process of CSR that shuffle exons of constant region. The core of NHEJ have catalytic subunit (DNA-Pkcs). Ku-DNA complex is important for the attachment of nuclease, polymerase and ligase of NHEJ. RAG2 with histone H3K4Me3 start recombination activity. HMG1 and HMG2 promote synapsis and cleavage. RNA Helicase of the DExD\H induces conformational changes. ZnA have ligase activity. Ku involved in the attachment of NHEJ factor DExD/H box who induce conformational changes. NHEJ machinery has XRCC4, XLF, and PAXX who ligate DNA ends. Protein kinase B and phosphoinositide-3 kinase involved in RNA expression. TOR69-3A2 is antibodies that neutralized Western equine encephalitis virus. AMMO1 is the anti gH/gL monoclonal antibody prevent to the Epstein bar virus infection. Antibodies also used for Ebola virus and Hepatitis. WT and HVR1 gpE1/gpE2 produce antibodies which target any type of cross-genotype neutralizing epitopes for HCV. GPE118, GPE325, GPE534 are targeted to different epitopes for Ebola virus.
Restoring vision is the most important center of attention of our research program, On the other hand, to attain our objective and convey the preeminent eminence of stem cell therapy; we have to understand the fundamental biology of stem cells. (RPE) Retinal Pigmented epithelium layer degenerates and contributing to a succession of actions resulting in visual impairments. Regenerative medicine holds promise for the spanning almost for all body system and the eye is an ideal organ to use in research because it is the only part of nervous system that is the visible and easily accessible. This review outlines advances in therapy and the main spotlight for the improvement and advance of cell therapies that are being confronted today.
Telomere protects the chromosomes in normal cells, and their shortening due to cell divisions and oxidative stress induces telomere shortening causing chromosomal instability. Telomerase is an enzyme that adds TTAGG telomeric repeats at chromosomal ends. The activity of telomerase enzyme plays a significant role in initiation and progression of cancer cells. In cancer cells the telomere length is maintained by telomerase enzyme. Cancer cells survive due to the activity of telomerase enzyme due to which the length of telomere is maintained and cell evades cell death mechanisms. In cancer cells telomere shortening or dysfunctional telomeres suppress cancer progression and development due to the activation of cellular senescence pathway. In this review we summarize telomere structure, function and the role telomere plays in cancer development and progression. Hermen J. Muller and Barbara McClintock identified telomere as a structure present at the ends of the chromosomes. The word telomere is derived from the Greek word "telos" which means ends and "meres" means part. Shorter telomere length or the complete absence of telomere induces end to end fusion of the chromosomes and ultimately cause cellular senescence or cell death. James D Watson in 1970s termed end replication problem in which during DNA replication, the DNA dependant polymerase does not replicates completely at the 5' terminal end leaving small regions of the telomere uncopied. In 1960 Leonard Hayflick and his colleagues identified that the human diploid cell can undergo limited number of cell divisions in culture. The maximum number of divisions that a cell can achieve in-vitro is known as Hayflick limit which was termed after leonard Hayflick. When the cells reaches to a limit where they can no longer divide will eventually go under biochemical and morphological changes that eventually leads to cell cycle arrest, a process known as "cellular senescence. The telomerase is an enzyme that functions to add telomere repeats to the ends of the chromosomes and was identified in 1984 by Elizbeth and her collague. The presence of telomerase enzyme activity was also identified in human cancer cell lines by Gregg in 1989. Another study conducted by Greider and associates showed the absence of telomerase enzyme in normal somatic cell. Shay and Harley in 1990s detected the presence of telomerase activity in 90 out of 101 human tumor cell samples isolated from 12 different tumor types, whereas they have found no activity in normal somatic samples (n=50) isolated from 4 different tissue types. Since then various studies on 2600 human tumor samples have shown the telomerase activity in around 90% of different tumor cells. The existence of telomerase activity in cancer cells clearly demonstrates a major role of this enzyme in cancer pathogenesis. Telomeres plays a critical role in cancer, aging, Progeria (premature aging) and various other age related disorders due to which telomere and telomerase enzyme are recently an active area of research.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
