Disease relevance of Neu2

  • A cytosolic sialidase cDNA was transfected into a highly metastatic and invasive cell line, B16-BL6, derived from the murine B16 melanoma [1].
  • In vitro effects of baicalein and baicalin treatment on human prostate cancer cell lines DU-145 and PC-3 were assessed by employing cell proliferation (MTS) assay, cytotoxicity (LIVE/DEAD) assay, and TUNEL assay [2].
  • The effects of the oils were examined in PANC-1 human pancreas cancer cells and Crl mouse breast cancer cells in concentrations ranging from 10-400 microg/ml, measuring the reduction of the tetrazolium salt 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl) -5- (3-carboxymethoxyphenyl)-2- (4-sulphophenyl) -2H-tetrazolium (MTS) by mitochondrial enzymes [3].
  • In this paper, we demonstrate that the antibody response toward V3-based synthetic MAPs derived from HIV-1, JY1 isolate, conjugated to two different carrier proteins using either m-maleimidobenzoyl-N-hydroxysuccinimide ester (MBS) or beta-maleimidopropionic acid N-hydroxysuccinimide ester (MPS), or succinic anhydride (SA) show different behaviors [4].
  • Additionally by employing the 'dilution to extinction' method we showed that MSS supported B. pertussis growth from smaller inocula than the original SS medium [5].
 

High impact information on Neu2

  • Mouse stromal cell lines (MSS lines) have been established from the spleens of newborn mice in culture at a low serum concentration [6].
  • These MSS lines support the proliferation and differentiation of the erythroid progenitor cells from mouse fetal livers and bone marrow in a semisolid medium in the presence of erythropoietin [6].
  • Larger colonies of over 1,000 benzidine-positive erythroid cells were developed from the fetal liver cells on the MSS cell layers after 6 days of incubation [6].
  • Infectivity, syncytium formation, and cytotoxicity of recombinant MV-Edm in HCC cell lines were evaluated by fluorescence microscopy, crystal violet staining, and the MTS assay [7].
  • On the basis of these molecular properties and expression pattern, it is therefore postulated that MTS 23 may detect a novel accessory molecule important for T cell activation [8].
 

Chemical compound and disease context of Neu2

 

Biological context of Neu2

 

Anatomical context of Neu2

  • In this investigation, we cloned a novel cDNA for mouse brain sialidase and expressed the cDNA in COS-7 cells [11].
  • MTS has high and relatively low homologies with those of mammalian cytosolic sialidases from the mouse brain (99%), rat (91%), and human skeletal muscle (75%), and those of the mouse lysosomal (47%) and membrane-bound (51%) sialidases, respectively [10].
  • T-cells also have significant levels of Neu-3 mRNAs, albeit much lower than those of Neu-1, whereas the levels of Neu-2 mRNAs are minimal [14].
  • Moreover, New Zealand mice, unlike controls, were found to have MTS 10+ epithelial cells within the cortex [15].
  • In this study, the functional relevance of this molecule to thymopoiesis was investigated by the addition of purified MTS 35 to fetal thymus organ culture [16].
 

Associations of Neu2 with chemical compounds

  • Human anti-N-acetyl-D-glucosamine (GlcNAc) antibodies were prepared by affinity chromatography from serum of a healthy donor (MSS) [17].
  • Cell proliferation was assessed with an MTS assay and bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU) uptake [18].
  • HX (10(-4) M) was found to potentiate only the cytotoxicity of DHFR inhibitors (MTS and PTX), increasing cell kill by 20-70 fold to the level achieved by an equivalent concentration (10(-5) M) of ICI 198583 alone [19].
  • Cytotoxicity evaluations carried out by the formazan (MTS) assay showed that the thiolated gelatin prepared with 20 mg and 40 mg of 2-iminothiolane (SHGel-20 and SHGel-40) per gram of gelatin had comparable cell viability profile to that of the unmodified gelatin [20].
  • Furthermore, with both HT-2 and CTLL-2 cells it was found that cultures could be simultaneously labeled with MTS/PMS and [3H]thymidine, with relatively little effect of the dye on uptake of the latter [21].
 

Other interactions of Neu2

  • To show the existence of this pathway, we have used recombinant mammalian cytosolic sialidase and membrane-associated sialidase to study the desialylation of G(M1) and G(M2) [22].
 

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of Neu2

  • Molecular cloning and expression of mouse brain sialidase [11].
  • Soluble Fas ligand-mediated cytotoxicity and apoptosis were evaluated by means of MTS and TUNEL assays, respectively [23].
  • MTS-antibodies enter the living cells in culture and can be detected by immunofluorescence and ELISA after extraction [24].
  • Cells from BM isolated on FMB (FMB-BM cells) were visualized by fluorescent confocal microscopy and quantified by a modified MTS colorimetric assay [25].
  • These compounds were examined for their in vitro antiviral activity by two different bioassays, namely; crystal violet staining and tetrazolium dye (MTS) measurement [26].
