Disease relevance of HOOK1

  • Therefore, the human HOOK1 gene could serve as a candidate gene for male infertility due to teratozoospermia or decapitation defects [1].
  • Unlika in parental or single-genotype siblings, in which TPA promotion-elicited papillomas remained benign, TPA promotion elicited autonomous papillomas in HK1 less than, with dotras/alpha mice and exhibited a novel susceptibility to malignant conversion [2].
  • On Spearman correlation analysis an isotype from HK1 demonstrated a significant increased adherence to BECs and CSH during HIV disease progression whereas no such correlation was noted for the remaining isotypes studied [3].
 

High impact information on HOOK1

  • Our previous studies demonstrated that HK-1, by promoting proliferation, survival, and possibly maturation of B-cell precursors, plays an important role in B lymphopoiesis [4].
  • Here we present data showing that HK-1 also influences T-cell development at a similar stage of differentiation [4].
  • A channel recently cloned from human ventricular myocardium (Kv1.4, HK1) produces a rapidly inactivating K+ current, which has phenotypic similarities to the 4-aminopyridine-sensitive component of ITO [5].
  • Human keratin 1 (HK1) expression is associated with the loss of mitotic activity in epidermal keratinocytes and restricted to an intermediate stage of terminal differentiation [6].
  • Through a comparison with other mouse models, the characteristics of the HK1-Shh transgenic mice suggest that the precise timing and site of Shh expression are key in dictating the resultant skin and tumour phenotype [7].
 

Biological context of HOOK1

  • Partial methylation was observed in 1 NPC cell line HK1 showing dramatic decreased in TIG1 expression [8].
  • Regional mapping of the locus for hexokinase-1 (HK1) to 10p11 equals to q23 by gene dosage in human fibroblasts [9].
  • The results showed that the IC50 of NPC/HK1 cells for TNP-470 was 3.8 times higher than that of HDMEC [10].
  • This further supports the observation that cell death in PDT-treated NPC/HK1 tumors was by necrosis [11].
  • Similarly, there was up-regulation of MMP1 mRNA expression in hypericin-PDT-treated NPC/HK1-tumors [12].
 

Anatomical context of HOOK1

  • PPT-C, the gene encoding the novel tachykinin peptide hemokinin-1 (HK-1), was present in trace amounts in the uteri from both pregnant and nonpregnant women [13].
  • The colorimetric MTT assay was used to evaluate the IC50 values of NPC/HK1 cells and human dermal microvascular endothelial cells (HDMEC) for TNP-470 [10].
  • These results are in agreement with the evidence derived from another similar patient and strongly support the idea of gene dosage effect of HK1 in the erythrocytes of 10p trisomics [14].
 

Associations of HOOK1 with chemical compounds

  • Flow cytometry experiments revealed that quercetin-induced apoptosis during the first 24 h followed by necrosis in both HK1 and CNE2 [15].
  • When cetuximab was combined with cisplatin or paclitaxel in the HK1 and HONE-1 cell lines, an additive enhancement of cytotoxic drug activity was demonstrated [16].
